    I'd say they'd cremate me, if only to kill the smell of me feet. I'm not entirely convinced it will work tho. nothing else does anyway..

    I want to be laid out on a mountainside and left to be eaten by the birds.

    I saw a documentary where a tribe in the Himalayas did this. They had no earth to bury their dead. So they had the witch doctor expose the corpse' inners. Then he said a few prayers before the birds landed.
    Grandad is now flying with the eagles ;)

    Beats worms anyday if you ask me!

    I'd love to have a wake something along the lines of the song Finnegan's wake, some craic would be had if they went by that song

    Just put me in the brown bin.

    Nah. I'd rather the last memory people have of me is a good one, one of me laughing or happy, not cold and lifeless.

    I want a party though. Love a good party!

    I want to be digitized and inserted in boards.ie

    I dont want my family to have a massive bill.

    I want to donate my organs to science or for transplantation, then be cremated.

    Then I want my family to have a huge session in memory of me!

    Weekend at Bernie's for me please. One last huzzah!!

    Surprised no-one has said they want to be stuffed & left in random places. Would be even better if there was a small camera & speaker operated by one your family

    Having been to enough funerals in my time, I'd sooner people just didn't waste time with the funeral and the wake, etc, chances are they'll be cracking the champagne open when I'm gone anyway! :D

    I wanna be cyrogenically frozen.

    Just wondering if all the atheists who 'don't care' what happens their bodies object to necrophilia?

    Just wondering like.... :o

    laid out on a pool table in my favourite pub for a weekend and a session of epic proportions a la the wire


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,571 ✭✭✭newmug


    Yep. Traditional all the way for me.


    One thing I would love though, is if they put in a hidden ram in the coffin, so that some of my loved ones could press a button, make me sit up, and frighten the bejaysus out of any unwelcome guests at the wake.

    When I read the bolded part first, I thought "Jesus, he's a bit of a Fun Time Frankie!!", I thought you meant one of these!

    Then I realised you meant a HYDRAULIC ram! :o

    I don't want any fuss when I die. I'm having no funeral, I'm being wrapped in a shroud or having a wicker coffin then I'm being buried in a woodland grave with a native tree planted on me as a marker, no headstone, no fuss, just back to the earth.

    I'd like to be buried between Salma Hayek's legs when I die. Buried right up to the hilt. :D:D:D:D:D:D

    Had 2 funerals last year, both were around the €5,000 mark each, no mourning car or anything fancy 1 burial and 1 cremation, pretty steep so I want to be cremated in a cheap coffin, I've a few friends with transit vans so one of them could bring me from where I die to Harolds Cross to get creamated and then they can party on Dutch gold :)

    If I dont manage to live forever, Id go for either being stuffed, buried above ground somewhere or crynogenically frozen.
    I do not under any circumstances want to be cremated or donated to science etc.

    Burn me like a toaster that can't pop!

    This.


    I want no death notices, no notice on some regional radio station. I don't want fcukers turning up just to make sure I am dead.
