I’d like to become a tree.
Strip me for parts and give the rest to science. I’m not real sentimental about my body once I’m done with it.
We did this for my dad, and my mom will follow the same path, I think.
Some burocracy (and educating burocrats, as the law allowing for this in my country 🇦🇷 is recent) but it’s worth to do something useful of oneself after death while not enriching the post-mortem mafia.
Of course both my brother and I want the same for ourselves.
Yeh. This.
This and compost the rest. Now available in WA!
Same + cremate anything that can be used and spread it somewhere insignificant
Scatter my remains across Disney World, although I don’t want to be cremated.
How about dehydrated like jerky?
“This is an outrage! I was going to eat that mummy!”
I don’t thing corpse borne explosive device(CBEDs) are a legal form of burial, but I am not one to stand in the way of someone’s dreams so long as nobody is physically harmed.

install doom on me
What are your specs?
Toaster.
I found a service that will mix your ashes in concrete and make you into an artificial reef. I like the idea of getting coral and sea fans to grow on me.
Now that’s an idea…
Cremate me and grind my ashes into small particles.
Then take those ashes and mix them into dark spices like pepper as a filler. Sell it to the general population.
I will be vored. I will be inside you. I will become part of you. You cannot stop this.
There are easier ways to get laid man
I’m not into this as a sexual thing. I will ascend and take control as my body becomes part of your chemical processes. I will become a part of you. mwahahhahah!
We’re all just recirculated stardust.
Start eating paprika. Like, lots of paprika.
If I had my way about it, I’d have a tree planted over me, but I don’t expect to know the difference, so I don’t really think about it much.
viking style. I want to be pushed out to sea on a magnificent hand-crafted canoe. Then someone is going to shoot a flaming arrow into my canoe and I’ll go out in a blaze of glory. No one said you can’t request this and I think it would be pretty sweet. Needs instrumental accompaniment.
Just be sure you give someone a heads up so that they can practice their archery enough to actually set you on fire
It’s okay, the band has “Entry Of The Gladiators” prepared in case this part of the send-off is missed.
I love that piece. I want it played at my funeral.
Adagio For Strings. The proper version, not the dance track.
Gotta launch the arrows at the climax, too, for maximum effect.
Scoripon in Cyberpunk 2077 had a very similar idea.
I don’t give a fuck, I’ll be dead.
People think anything matters after they die, like anything in the future at all, but there is no future… You skip right to the end of time. Nothing happens to your body at all.
Reminder to leave instructions for your loved ones, regardless of your age or health. One of the hardest decisions your family will go through is trying to guess what you’d want.
I don’t personally care. Burials and other ceremonies are for the living. I’d prefer something that doesn’t harm our environment and to donate as many organs as possible, but that’s pretty much it.
I like what you said about being a tree. I may steal that.
I don’t have kids. I plan to leave my assets to a charity. Probably something for animals but I haven’t really planned that far ahead yet.
Right on.
Literally just throw me in a ditch idgaf as long as my body is allowed to naturally decay and recycle the energy back into the ecosystem.
Stop locking bodies in boxes that take decades to decay.
Whatever is cheapest/easiest for my family.
Not my problem… Whatever my SO/surviving descendants want is good by me.
I had planned on (organ donation first of course, but then) cremation, mostly to make my leftover remains easier and cheaper to deal with. Lately I’ve heard about rapid-composting, which is supposed to be more environmental. So that might be good. But it might be more expensive, in which case back to the plan.
Rapid composting, like, turn you into soil?
Yes
An example:
(I looked up “human composting” and Google knows I live in California, ymmv)
Edit: by “rapid” I mean faster than dumping you in the woods, it says 45 days.
I don’t really care, not planning on dying within the next few decades. Maybe by then, we’ll already be in space, and whoever has to make that decision can just push my body out of the air lock.
You can never truly be prepared for death, natural death just like accidental death can happen at anytime in any place with out you knowing until it’s too late.
Good point. I should already be registered as an organ donor, although I have no idea how that process works.
Not sure about being registered as an organ donor because it’s different for every country, maybe try looking up what to do for your specific area and see what comes up.
I’m not really interested in it.
Interested enough to mention it.
Do you mean answering the post question?
On my country (AR) you can express your decision when you renew your mandatory national ID.
Same here. I just checked, and it’s on the front of my drivers license.
When my mother went, the hospital staff asked us if she was a donor.
