Going on from the black humour thread but with perhaps a serious side, if burials on land or cremations were not an option for environmental reasons but other imaginative options were legal, how would you like your body to be disposed of?

I would like mine to be of practical value to someone, for example it would be great if my body was processed into blood and tooth for sale at the garden centre. The thought that I could enrich the soil for growth really appeals to me.

:Razz

I would be stuffed and sat on the couch with a glass of wine and tv remote for eternity

I would like to be coverted into one of those diamondy things and then shot into space to twinkle around for ever. :D



Seriously though, compost isn't a bad idea.

Rheggers if you can be made into a powder to scatter in the garden I want to be turned into egg timers - one for each member of the family. It would be nice to know I was being useful even after I have gone lol

Good idea changi but not one that would suit me....I'm notoriously late for everything. It's not deliberate but I don't see it as the end of the world if I'm a few minutes late....I always tell people I'll arrive at 'x-ish' time.

Given that I'm full of crap I suppose I'd make good manure. [lol]

I have decided that if I cant take my Bears with me I am not going, so with that in mind I will have to live forever. :D

Typical, isn't it?

Ricco gives me a rollocking for telling him to get stuffed and, then, guess what? Along come .Orgers who actually want to be stuffed!:Razz

No justice in the world, I tell you.

Anyway, I want to be chopped into tiny pieces and fired out of a cannon*.


*I would have preferred to be cremated and then fired out of a cannon - just like me mate a few years ago - but Rheggers isn't allowing cremations.
Anyway, getting chopped up would make the firing nice and messy.

Going by your recent posts I think being a suppository would suit you better. [lol]

How about like in the Sci Fi novel "Dune"? Dune is a planet without water, so when a person dies, the water in the body is extracted and ceremoniously given to the family in a small flask.

It's a really hard choice between being eaten by crabs and fish in a burial at sea or the land equivalent from I think Hindu culture where you are pegged out out for the vultures and crows to tear apart and scatter in their droppings from on high. Doesn't make a lot of difference either way!

You might get it done for free if you were dismembered beforehand into smaller bits, a bit more hassle and more bin bags would be required but it's worth thinking about.
