When you die, what do you want to be done with you?

Strip me for parts and give the rest to science. I'm not real sentimental about my body once I'm done with it.

Scatter my remains across Disney World, although I don't want to be cremated.

install doom on me

I found a service that will mix your ashes in concrete and make you into an artificial reef. I like the idea of getting coral and sea fans to grow on me.

If I had my way about it, I'd have a tree planted over me, but I don't expect to know the difference, so I don't really think about it much.

Cremate me and grind my ashes into small particles.

Then take those ashes and mix them into dark spices like pepper as a filler. Sell it to the general population.

I will be vored. I will be inside you. I will become part of you. You cannot stop this.

viking style. I want to be pushed out to sea on a magnificent hand-crafted canoe. Then someone is going to shoot a flaming arrow into my canoe and I'll go out in a blaze of glory. No one said you can't request this and I think it would be pretty sweet. Needs instrumental accompaniment.

THROW ME IN THE TRAAAASH

Make me and my partner a tree, set up a hammock between us, and hang with us from time to time

Donate my body to science if possible, failing that, dispose of me in the most environmentally friendly way possible.

Once I am dead I have no care for my body, maximize the use of it or minimize the impact of it.

I don't give a fuck, I'll be dead.

I don’t personally care. Burials and other ceremonies are for the living. I’d prefer something that doesn’t harm our environment and to donate as many organs as possible, but that’s pretty much it.

I like what you said about being a tree. I may steal that.

I don’t have kids. I plan to leave my assets to a charity. Probably something for animals but I haven’t really planned that far ahead yet.

Reminder to leave instructions for your loved ones, regardless of your age or health. One of the hardest decisions your family will go through is trying to guess what you'd want.

Literally just throw me in a ditch idgaf as long as my body is allowed to naturally decay and recycle the energy back into the ecosystem.

Stop locking bodies in boxes that take decades to decay.

Whatever is cheapest/easiest for my family.

Bury me "buns-up" in a sidewalk downtown so someone has a place to park their bicycle.

I don't really care, not planning on dying within the next few decades. Maybe by then, we'll already be in space, and whoever has to make that decision can just push my body out of the air lock.

Prop me up beside the jukebox.

Not my problem... Whatever my SO/surviving descendants want is good by me.

I had planned on (organ donation first of course, but then) cremation, mostly to make my leftover remains easier and cheaper to deal with. Lately I've heard about rapid-composting, which is supposed to be more environmental. So that might be good. But it might be more expensive, in which case back to the plan.

Donate all my usable organs, plant a fruit tree in the empty chest, preferably in the yard of my family home.

I'm an organ donor, but I suspect my organs won't be worth much by the time I'm done with them.

I'd like my corpse to be used to frame someone for murder. Obviously I can't name names, because that would undermine the plot, but I trust my loved ones to frame up someone who has it coming.

Feed me to the mushrooms.

There’s still some active tar pits. I’m surprised nobody is intentionally trying to become a fossil. It would be cool to do some weird shit to mess with the aliens who find your fossil in 10,000 years or so.

Resurrected or uploaded.

Trebuchet my bloated corpse into Dick Cheney's living room

I told my kids to claim my skull for the mantle and compost the rest

Just throw my body in the trash. And no religious burial. I'll be damned if some pastor who doesn't know shit about me give an hour long eulogy about Jesus over my corpse.

The bog.

Medical school.

Eat me, bang me, fill me up with cream. Who gives a shit?

I would like someone to rent a tree spade, one if those trucks that can pick up a mature tree with its root ball, pick up a nice tree, wrap me in linen, throw me in the hole, and drop the tree back into the hole on top of me.

Having recently watched Andor, I think I'd like to be made into a brick and used as a weapon against fascists.

Fuck it, I wanna be cryogenically frozen, if I can have the chance of living hundreds of years in the future, no matter how slim, I'd rather be prepared.

Give my body to a cabal of necrophiliacs so I can continue to be fucked in death as I was in life.

Just throw me in the trash

Shoot me out of a cannon

Sky Burial!!!

I think just cremation. Get rid of this body suit. :)

I'm excited for what's next.

The way things are going, I fully expect to be turned into Soylent Green

Something cheap for my family.

I've organised to have my body donated to a medical school for dissection. It was quite complicated, lots of forms to be filled in and witnessed. My executor has to phone the university when I die & they send a van to collect me. They won't accept my body if I've died of something communicable, or it was eg some accident that left me too mangled. When they're done with me I'll be cremated and my name goes up on a plaque in a special garden.

I would like to remain dead

If you want to be a tree, go cremation. Trees get their carbon from the air not the soil.

I want my nutrients returned to the earth.

That means that green burial, human composting, burial at sea, and aquamation are all options.

I absolutely do not want cremation. It’s an energy intensive process that also renders the deceased’s accumulated nutrients unavailable to other organisms.

This thread also reminds me that I need to revoke the organ donor status from my driver’s license. As much as I like / appreciate the concept, a viable organ donation requires dying in a hospital. I would prefer to pass outdoors in a natural setting that I feel connected to or, at worst, in my own home.

I want my body donated to a body farm.

I don't give a fuck because I'm dead and won't be there to see it.

Do whatever you want with my corpse.

Dump my ashes into Mariana's Trench. That way I can contribute to the local ecology...somehow.

Sky burial! Hack me up and feed me to animals and plants. That way I can at least give some of the energy back that I consumed in my life

Sky burial seems pretty cool: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_burial
