Not so much what I want done with my corpse but what I'd like to do with my life; die on Mars.* Even if it means lithobraking into Olympus Mons due to a miscommunication about imperial and metric units.
However, I have a few other ideas as well.
Most epic; funeral pyre boat.
Most metal; feed my corpse into a woodchipper and use the viscera for fertilizer.
Most likely; buried a bit shallow under a young sapling.
*: Excellent album by the Callous Daoboys
Cremation. Simple urn. Spread my ashes in the mountains.
Preserve me until we figure out how to put consciousness into a robot body and then make me look like the Major from GITS.
Or fire my preseved body into the depths of space so another intelligence can work on it.
Put me in a haunted house. Use my skeleton to scare people or in movies or whatever.
Hang my bones up in one of those ossuary chapels where the walls are covered in skulls
I want to be cremated, I don't care what happens after that. I tell my wife to just put me in the bin.
Don't care, I'll be dead anyway. Do whatever.
My dead naked body should be catapulted at Mar-a-Lago.
I want to be scattered at Disneyland (note: I do not wish to be cremated).
Weekend at Bernie's style around It's a Small World?
i wonder if anyone has invented the meat chipper
Ever see the movie Fargo?
Oh yes, I was just commenting on the fact that a wood chipper seemed a bit inefficient when it comes to the harder bits of an unused corpse. Perhaps it would be more pertinent, then, to describe this non-existing-as-of-yet invention as a bone chipper.
*I mean, there is that machine that grinds up offal into hot dog paste, but that's rather slow. We need something with more pizzazz.
Most landscapers have one.
They don't like that. Whoever scatters then might win a lifetime ban.
Not my problem.
Getting tossed in a hole with a tree planted on top so it can consume my remains.
This but mushrooms.
based
I thought about the tree thing alot.
I mean coffins seem so lame... tree is new life, its kinda beautiful in a way that is hard ti explain
Launch my corpse at a dead planet with water or ice, see if my bacterial colonies eventually seed new life.
Donate the useful bits to others, use me for science, then turn me into compost.
Don't have to even be dead, I just want to be launched into the sun because that would be pretty rad.
Due to gravity and your point of origin being earth (which is moving suprisingly fast), its actually very difficult to actually hit the sun...
Oh it'd cost an absolute shitload of delta v, but that doesn't make me want it less.
9/10 men can't find the sun
Yes. It's guaranteed, given enough time.
Technically I guess it could be considered a ride share kind of thing, since I think my remains will have been recycled as a bunch of other people's remains, by that time...
About 1/3 will be combined with my wife and her dog who have already passed. Another 1/3 will be combined with my fiancé. These will be scattered in a few different places that are special to us.
The final 1/3 is to be combined with concrete and made into ice cube sized pieces to be taken to different reefs around the world by whomever will take them.
I currently carry a tiny portion of my wife and her dog with me everywhere.
I'm sorry for your loss.
There's something beautiful about having a plan that detailed to acknowledge that much love you have shared.
I wouldn't even know what people did.
But maybe...
Hide pieces of my body in the vents of Mar a lago.
Let them rot and stink up the place.
I don't care, I'll be dead. Whatever is cheapest and simplest.
Whatever is the most ecologically sound method of disposal.
I'm not here, physically couldn't give a shit
I want to be left in a strangers car trunk.
don't give a shit
take my organs, practice cutting me up, burn the rest or bury me under a tree that you'll see grow for decades
Cremate me and stick the ashes in a nice chunk of woods
There's a burial forest near here, I'll be quite happy there. No markers, no embalment, no coffin, just a shroud and trees.
High explosives. At least I could go out with a good bang.
Compost. I don't really care about a marker or whatnot either. Maybe, if I had to; a cherub with a solar powered pump that periodically pees on [billionaires] grave stone or maybe just a simple stone with this meme but, eh. Won't matter to me after the fact because I am not.
Seems like we all want to be as nutrient-conserved as possible! It's too bad there are all the rules about proper disposal - I get why they're there, but yeah, random hole for me. Tree on top sounds great
I intend to leave requests for some minor crimes related to my cremated ashes, in my will.
Nothing too serious, just enough to fuck with whoever executes my will. To...uh... remind them I was thinking of them, and maybe to make them a tiny bit relieved to be rid of my bullshit.
Cremation and organ donation. Already written in my living will and communicated to my remaing family
Be sure and double-check the order of those two
Launched from the solar system on a path out of the galaxy. Or left in the wilderness for nature to have it's way.
Organ donation or medical/scientific use. Whatever parts are not useful can be disposed of in whatever way is easiest.
Cremated, composted, something like that. I'll be dead so I'm not too picky. Just as long as nobody wastes money on a fucking coffin.
If I'm not cremated feed me to an animal, otherwise mix my ashes in with a bunch of psychotic drugs and let my essence take you on a magical journey.
I donated my body to scientist named Frankenstein when I died
Make a marionette out of my body and use it to tell my life story.
A friend from high school wants his hands to be glued to the side of his face, then be decapitated so it looks like he pulled off his own head.
