After They Nail It Shut

[Molikroth]

I'd like for the world to be exterminated in a nuclear holocaust when I die.

I want to be injected with a virus that turns me in to a zombie, and then I will eat everyone at the funeral, and then Frank West from Dead rising will kill me with a hedge cutter.

I don't think that'd be my business. Funerals are not for the dead but for the still living.

Hopefully my family may realize that and conduct none (and hopefully they'll burn me too), sparing themselves the expense (monetary as well as social).

I'd like to have my brain frozen, and my body stuffed and put on display, in the classic "Thinker" pose. My funeral would consist of a pogo-stick endurance marathon.

The idea of being turned into a diamond gives me some interesting ideas. I would have my body (and some other people's as supplements if needed) turned into several diamonds, then the diamonds put into briefcases and scattered around the world, a la Far Cry 2. Then send someone out on a quest to find them all, killing Africans made of kevlar as necessary. Not sure if that'd be a job for someone I like or someone I hate though...

While we're on the subject, since microorganisms can't survive in space (can they?), if you launched a dead body out into space, does that mean it would never decompose? Something must happen to it, right? Someone should do a study on what happens to dead bodies in space. I'm curious.

Well, the body may get nuked by solar radiation, be pulled back in by Earth's gravity, or pulled over to the moon.....

There's definitely more things, but at least the body wouldn't decompose....

When I was more adolescent, I liked the Martian custom in Stranger in a Strange Land: I would be served as the main course at my wake, using a recipe of my own choosing.
McLaser Vindaloo, for instance.

Hmmm funeral...hard choice since I can't have a portal into the warcraft dimension made...hmm....

Cremated to say the least, No one is getting my organs afterall, even if they beg me.

hmmmm....

Made into a diamond and passed from one generation of hotties to the next as a nipple piercing or something, i dunno

 

[ThePlasmatizer]

My ideal funeral would be where my body is frozen in a coffin to preserve it, to accompany it a giant monument is needed, and all humankind must mourn my passing for atleast a decade.
