Topic: Okaaay...but it's YOUR funeral! | |
---|---|
Saw something on the news today about "Green Funerals"...they plant you without being embalmed, in a biodegradable casket, without a concrete liner...supposed to be about 75% cheaper than a normal funeral... Have you thought about how you wanna be "disposed" of? And I don't even want to think about the way the Egyptians did it... I don't care if I'm dead...there's something a lil unsettling about pulling my brains out through my nostrils with a hook! Blah! |

Actually, I'm donating my body to science...they come get ya, do research, and cremate the remains free. (And do all the pesky paperwork like death certificates, etc.) They'll give your family a report on what research you contributed to and return the ashes if they want. I told my kids to do whatever they want...bury them, scatter them...
I'll be someplace else by then! |

Buried ass up at work so my boss can kiss it and someone else can use it for a bike rack instead of driving to work.
Green enough for ya? |

Have you thought about how you wanna be "disposed" of? Damn, I've been eating at the dinner next to the cemetary for years, and the water has a funky taste and smell. Great, just great, now I've been ingesting everyones souls. Oh gawd, P2! No wonder yer breath smells so funny! |

I personally, don't give a rat's azz about what happens to my remains...I am thrifty in life & wanna be just as cheap in death... Does anyone know if you can still sell your body to science? Don't know about selling but you can donate..My mother's body went to OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY MEDICAL SCHOOL and then was cremated when they finished with it...I am being cremated and my ashes will be sprinkled in Sedona, AZ, my favorite place.. |

I actually like the idea of the 'green funeral' I don't like my other options at all.

Oh gosh, someone told me about this site they found that takes things a bit farther to the "bizarre" level.
"We use only the latest technology for preservation for the best in long-term, permanent, decomposition-resisting chemicals. These insure that your dearly departed can remain in a dense state of compacted memorial that will outlive not only your own memory of him or her but that of many future generations. Our state of the art 400 ton hydraulic press insures the greatest compression of your loved one, in compliance with all Federal standards, with the bare minimum of seam extrusion." "For those customers who want to be remembered as they were in life, we can now reduce them to a actual size, accurate representation of them as they lived... the remains of the body will be processed, extruded, heat treated and infused with a polyeurothane and epoxy resin as well as our own proprietary preservatives to be forced into the mold at high pressure while being superheated to insure perfect form. Once the molding process is finished, the product is then painted and when possible the actual hair is used to recreate the individual." http://www.compacteddignity.com/ It's just wrong on SO many levels!! |

"I taste dead people"....I went into a cave in Afganistan and there was 5 mumified bodies. We were told to seal it shut. We were the only footprints in the cave(creepy), so I let those bodies lay in peace. |
