How do you want to be buried | A list of burial types

[CatLvr]

I was gonna donate my body to a body farm, but there are SO many restrictions, and I DON'T want my son to have to incur any expenses (no funeral, no memorial or "celebration" or any of that other ridiculous stuff. So, I will do this:

Body Donor Information - Register Online - MedCure

Whole body donors give back by helping to advance medical knowledge and training. You can register your intent to be a body donor online.

And yes, he is aware of my wishes. I want the kids to take any property I have, any collectibles that can be auctioned off (I'm a Boomer Fly-Over State Child -- I have enough guns, ammo and gun accessories to start my own war lol ) that he doesn't want to keep -- and go have some fun with that money. He has a girl who loves him, and they are the kind of couple you see once in a blue moon -- both kind to a fault, responsible, help when they can but mind their own business -- and they deserve EVERY good thing that happens to them. Anything I can do to add to their list of good things when they get to be my age and look back, I want to do.

I am wondering if anyone in this thread has seen those videos of corpses dressed up and posted up in the club/strip club after the funeral before burial (as a special wish I assume)

I know it isn't a burial option but I am just curious if anyone plans to spend time/have their body at any clubs, parties, etc. for a short period of time before they are put in the ground

Cremation and ,ideally, having the ashes either composted or mixed into paint.

Ill never know what ill get, but I hope for a burial at sea. I've taken so much out of ecosystems to sustain myself this far, I might as well do the reverse for (a) creature(s) that's had its habitat likely overfished directly because of human perpetuated demand.

Dissolved in acid.

That's a good idea too.

Oh huh, didn't even know half of these were a thing. Aquamation and turning ashes into diamonds sounds interesting. Personally I'd go with aquamation or some form of cremation. I don't want to take up space after I'm dead and am not a fan of the concept of being buried.. I don't want to be perceived or observed after I'm gone.

If I actually consider beyond just my own selfish desire to return to the earth, I honestly wouldn't mind plastination. The concept of semi-permanence, even temporarily, is comforting to an extent. Plus, I'm sure with my complicated mix of medical conditions I'd be a useful subject to study lol.

Cremation for sure. Scattering at sea I think may be best and least amount of trouble in my case. Fertilizer is also a good idea but maybe more hassles. Sending ashes into space.. interesting. Great list!

Interesting personality either donate my body or leave it outside for animals to feed off

I told my sister i want her to take my ashes and my dogs ashes to alaska and go in a plane and sprinkle them over the woods where the bears and wolves roam. That would be my absolute dream

My wishes are to be cremated and thrown in the dump somewhere or beneath a weeping willow - my family has zero intention of following through with that though. My mom believes being cremated is a one way ticket to hell
