Do You Want To Be Buried Or Cremated

Post » Wed May 21, 2014 2:11 am

As per the Thead Title when you die do you want to be buried or cremated?

If you want to play the radical non-conformist and select "neither" then what are you having as an alternative?

Buried so I could have at least a chance to be restored by a necromancer.

I actually have thought about this. I think I would like my remains to be cremated but I am not sure how my family feels about it? It is a difficult subject.

Don't care too much, wouldn't mind just being left where I fall.

I'd probably be cremated because the service for my granpa was nice and that's what he got. The service my gran got was in a church and she was buried (different side of the family) and all they did was yak on about God and Jesus...why was the service not fully about my gran?

Yeah I'd rather be cremated to spare people sitting through one of those services - and I'd like it to be all about me :P

I don't particularly care what happens to my body after I die. Cremation is probably less expensive so if I had to choose I'd go with that.

I don't care at all what happens to my body after I die, dumped into the woods, buried, stolen for deviant purposes, cremated, used as a string puppet, sent into space, and so on. Just pick whatever is the most efficient, which out of these two would be the cremation.

Cremated.

Because if there's the slightest chance I'm still alive when they put me under, I don't want to take it.

Being buried alive is probably one of the worst ways to go.

Buried.

More for the sake of tradition than any religious reasons.

Also, there's something incredibly tacky and degrading about cremation ceremonies in my experience. You show up at a building with about as much charm as a hospital or a factory, watch your loved one's coffin disappear behind a curtain, then leave quickly so the next family who have ordered a McFuneral Service can come in.

Of course, given the choice I would want my body to be perfectly (or at least partially) preserved somehow, so i'm comforted by the fantasy that in the distant future, someone can reverse aging/death.

Set afire on a boat and sent down a waterfall. Like the Boromir funeral, but on fire.

Cremated. It's just cooler.

Yeah, fire is hot, not cool. Har har har.
