Six feet under or blowin' in the wind?

Deschodt 05-28-2021 07:47 AM

An urn on the mantle

Steve Carlton 05-28-2021 07:53 AM

Stuffed and mounted.

Seahawk 05-28-2021 08:03 AM

Fire into dust into water.

I have spent a lot of time above, beside, on and in the water, never more comfortable.

It is where I want to be.

First choice - viking funeral pyre

Realistic choice - cremate, stuff me into a bunch of large fireworks and GO MAKE SOME NOISE!!!

Boots sticking up out of the ground in graveyard with one of those smart ass tombstones that says, “I told you I was sick!” or maybe, “He had his moments.”

LEAKYSEALS951 05-28-2021 08:05 AM

My pelt is to be spread out on someone's floor bearskin rug style. Crackling fire in the background. Apple in my mouth.

As usual, you win.

Fireworks over the Chesapeake Bay...interesting.

I wonder what *launched into space* costs these days? :)

Turn me into ashes and pitch me off the end of my dock

My Granny had G-Pop cremated, then brought the urn home and spread the ashes out......turned on the fan. There's that BJ you always wanted!

Discseven 05-28-2021 08:33 AM

Feed me to the fishes. (I've eaten my fair share of them.)

wdfifteen 05-28-2021 08:54 AM

When my grandson died at the age of 7 his mother had his body cremated and his ashes rest in an urn on her mantle. It's a comfort to her to still have "Brodie" around. The brass urn has a shiny spot on it where she touches it every day. I want to be that for someone.

aschen 05-28-2021 09:06 AM

Im gonna have them cut me up and pass me all around

Give my knees to the needy, my stomach to Milwaukee, Venus de milo can have my arms, etc


RIP John pine

Norm K 05-28-2021 09:20 AM

Whatever my loved ones opt for is okay by me - pretty sure I won't care at that point.

Ditto, but just dump my corpse in the lake and run.:D

I have donated my body to science.

Me too, but I'm pretty sure they gut you and give back what is left to the next of kin.

On a slab at medical school. Then I will feel like I've urned my rest. :D

Best

Good one, Les

KNS 05-28-2021 11:57 AM

Put me in a Maytag box and take me to the landfill.

Nostril Cheese 05-28-2021 12:35 PM

hopefully my organs can help others.

The rest goes up in smoke

Bill Douglas 05-28-2021 12:37 PM

I like it at the beach. Right across from my house.

So the game plan is I get toasted up, as cheaply as possible - ya know, no point in spending extra money :D then my ashes thrown into the shore break during an offshore wind. Strick instructions! It must be an offshore wind I don't want to get blown across the road into someone's backyard and be urinated on for eternity.

drcoastline 05-28-2021 12:39 PM

When my number comes up I want to win the powerball.

SiberianDVM 05-28-2021 12:54 PM

Cremation followed by spreading my ashes over my pet cemetery. Only, wait until winter, so you won't get ticks.

herr_oberst 05-28-2021 01:00 PM

Put me in a Native American canoe with cedar boughs and a twist of tobacco and push me out to the spirit world like Johnny Depp in Dead Man!

At a local dragstrip last year there was some commotion/gathering at the starting line, announcer said a few final words, dragster launched down the strip, popped the chute and out came the ashes into the wind.

Thought it was a pretty cool final run.

Rapewta 05-28-2021 03:17 PM

Fate is the Hunter.

None of us know. We do eventually turn to dust. Some of us real quick with cremation and some of us take longer. Kind of a bummer that we can't keep it going.

LEAKYSEALS951 05-28-2021 03:30 PM

I figure in 30 years, deepfake and AI will easily make up for my departure.

My X-Wife died of a brain tumor about a year back. Someone has taken her FB account and periodically uploads new pics of her (well, new to us... not "new") and I must say, it's nice to see them. Whoever has access spends much time there, so her little green "online" icon is active. Even knowing limitations of a simple little green dot, it's somehow reassuring to see it.

Can't believe someone hasn't posted this yet- "fly me to the moon"

I'm an organ donar but probably too old. My organs have probably passed their expiration dates. Cheap cremation for me, then my wife will dump my ahes from a plane over Lake Basin in the Sierras. She says she might keep them and contract to have both of ours dumped there.

Por_sha911 05-28-2021 06:07 PM

I told my wife to have me cremated and put the ashes in the ashtray of the Porsche so I can still ride along.

To me the body is just a shell. It is an Earth suit to carry around my soul and spirit. Once I'm gone there is no value to it.

rusnak 05-28-2021 06:22 PM

I plan on having a traditional funeral like you see on TV with people dressed in black, in the rain, buried on some grassy hill in the winter.

But there's likely to be some sort of glitch and my enemies will line up to stab my corpse and spit on me like Mussolini.

One of my favorite scenes from The Sopranos: :D:D

I have two requests:

1) I want my remains scattered at Snowbird Ski Resort
2) I don’t want to be cremated

Should make for an interesting spring thaw
