Instead of a funeral/wake, I want to have a Bar Mitzvah esque party. With shit like, take a picture with the corpse or, play ping pong with the corpse. There will be a DJ blasting all my favorite music. A full cash bar(this isn't going to be cheap) with Tom Cruise and Shigeru Miyamoto serving drinks. After the party, an animated superhero movie about my life written and directed by Bruce Timm(sp?) will premiere. After the movie is done, my corpse burned and turned into the world's biggest diamond.
I want my casket to be dumped in some section of the ocean which at some point may be profitable to oil drillers. Hopefully it'll be anchored to something and then when they find me, they'll open up the box to find only a few bones and a letter saying how my corpse was involved in a paranormal incident a la "7 Days A Skeptic". It'd be even better if I could have one of my relatives pay off one of the rig personnel to start killing their coworkers in gruesome ways after they lift me from the sea.
I would want to be buried in a coffin that has a spring behind the back so when someone opens the coffin my skeleton jumps on them. Teach them pesky grave robbers.
feh dying is for morons... I'm going for immortality through genetic engineering
failing at that I'd like to have a tombstone that projects a hologram of me.

Born and brought up in a Hindu family, I'd most likely say a cremation is the way for me. As for the ashes... scatter them in the winds. Any winds.
Though, if I die suddenly, and there is no trauma affecting my organs, I'd like my body to become the ***** of science; I'd donate my organs, and let medical student cut up and play around with what's left of me.
Geez... this makes me sound kinda noble... just let you know, this'll probably be the only way I benefit society, so I will be remembered as that stingy bastard who gave nothin' to no one.

The one problem with this is... well, how will you know?
(And if you're talking about ghosts...how will you be able to see your own body in a coffin, with no light?)

3 options for me.
Full viking - just epic.
Cremated and then made into windows or the windshield of a plane - see the world, even in death.
Buried, but during the funeral, hollowed out and made airtight except for holes in my head and hands, and then attached to an air compressor, turning me into a wacky-waving-inflatable-arm-flailing-tube-man.

I'll be worm food. Buried without a coffin, just dig a hole and drop my corps. Preferably in a wooded area with a large animal population because I like being around animals. If not that, dump my body in shark or alligator/crocodile filled waters. That way the meat on mt bones won't go to waste.
I'll probably preserve myself in honey... so if they invent re-animation my body will still be around!
Dig my guts out if they think they can be used again, wrap the rest in a cotton blanket with a couple mementoes, no embalming, bury me deep in the soft mud. I want to rot quick, get rid of the evidence. Use the money saved to hire a DJ and buy enough booze/drugs to blitz all the mourners. No black, just party.
That's the freakiest image I've thought about all week. Hilarious, also.Voodoo Child said:
Donation to medical science would be practical, but it'd be quite interesting to be buried without a coffin, with some apple seeds. Your corpse would be the root of the tree. Fifty years later, my grandchildren can enjoy the creepiest apple pie ever.
Norse funeral for me, which is funny because I hate water so damned much. Just put me in a boat, smother me in gasoline, put me out to sew, and hit me with a flaming arrow. Sounds freaking sweet to me. My great grandfather wanted his ashes spread across the lake where we had a family cabin for generations upon generations... that was a morbid day. My grandma wanted me to sing while they did it, and the wind picked up... ashes made their way into my open mouth... SO NOT COOL.
