I for one think we take up way too much land for burial. Plus it costs a lot of money for no reason. Ya its a nice little crutch for the living to go to a plot but eventually everyone is forgotten (well at least 99% of us). So, what is the point? You are dead. Why do you need your own little space?
I think burials represent 90% of all funerals where I live.... It's kinda remote and no huge cities are nearby...

I want to be cryogenically frozen anyways.
I'll take up some space in a basement.

Personally, I'd like to be cremated. Ashes to ashes, as they say.

Where's the poll? Fail.
Cremation; take up less space, no need for fancy embalming and all that shit.

i'm going to leave it in my will, that whoever finds me dead - to leave me there, take my credit cards and rack them up. and have at least one beer in memory of . . .
Give my organs to medicine if they can, then burn the rest.
or shoot me into fucking space

Cremation... and yes, burials really serve no point.

Ultimately, I don't think it matters.
No idea, tradition mostly I think.11 Bravo wrote:

take anything you can make use out of (for good, plox), burn what's left, and spread my ashes wherever suits you best as the most meaningful spot. (At this point in my life it would have to probably be the front lawn of the Anheuser-Busch brewery in St Louis, though I've never even been there...)

I'll give my dead carcass to science.
Maybe I'll have some tattoos with dotted lines to indicate where to cut for medical students.
Alternatively, drop my body into an alpine ravine at let the choughs to the rest.

Whenever a grave reaches x years of age, it gets removed unless anyone keeps paying for the lot

Do graveyards exist for non-denominational athiests or whatever you guys are. Cremation is generally more of a neutral way of doing things. Would be kinda assholish to take up space in a graveyard when you spent alot of your life criticising religion and shit.

Even though I know I'm gonna be dead, somehow the idea of having my body burned freaks me out. So I guess buried. But I would like to have my ashes blown into space, so maybe I'd go for the cremation anyway.
