Damn, and here I was the only one who knew about the BARF on this site.

Bass\'s Anthropological Research Facility -

Had a couple of classes from a graduate of the same.

heres ur half rotten body for burial....

im thinkin id rather just have them bury it? lol

 

[Sand Rat]

They cremate the remains before turning them over to the family.

Same thing medical schools do with the cadavers.

Personally, I\'m considering donating my soft remains to a medical school, and my hard remains to an anthro department - mainly so they can figure out how to prevent this from happening again. lol

 

[Frustrated Father]

Ah hell, I want to be stripped down and have my bones gilded in gold and hung up in the hallway.

lol

Seriously though, that\'s a damn interesting link and one that I have to admit that would probably appeal to my wife as she\'s a bit \'off\' like that (I\'ll deny every saying that). Neat idea really - bit ghoulish, but neat.

I\'d give myself up to the NSW, or the Necrophilic Society of Wales to give them their full name. Guaranteed a good ride in the afterlife

I want to be cremated and have my ashes scattered in a swimming pool during a swimming gala. I always hated those things but was forced to compete because my PE teacher taught me to swim when I was a young un and I was pretty fast. I just hated the competitive aspect and never have I encountered so many self righteous, up themselves, must win at all costs, complete cocks as at swimming galas. It would be nice to know I was contributing to spoiling their enjoyment as they were forced to swim through my charred remains in order to get that victory they all seemed to crave.

If you hadn’t guessed I don’t believe in any kind of afterlife and I’m not that fussed what is done to me when I’m dead. I think reverend has the right idea. Throw me to the necrophiliacs and let them have some fun, it’s not like it’s going to bother me (as long as they aren’t munters of course, it has to be fit sickos)!

Eeek!

I notice it\'s only the guys offering themselves to the nercos.. I may not have much use for my body after I\'m dead but I\'m still not becoming a post-mortem slut for those pervs. I figure docs can take whatever organs are still salvagable, give them to people who can use them and burn what\'s left. I\'m not too keen about rotting in the ground either, I\'d rather get all my decomposing done in one fiery instant. As for my ashes.. hmm, plant some daffodils in them

Also, put my minis in the fire with me! So piles of unpainted pewter can go with me forever! lol

Darn right. Molly Parker can do whatever she wants with me when I\'m dead. Man that film was dead sexy

Seriously, plastination might be a cool way to spend posterity.

Just reading this thread now...

You guys all missed the obvious...

At least obvious to those of us with a more macabre appreciation of art.

I want to give my ashes to this guy.

I read an entire article on that guy in (I believe) Maxim magazine. Supposedly, each human being\'s ashes turns a different color when he turns it into paint. I could be my own \'Limited Edition\' color!

Let\'s see, maybe I\'ll be Markus Mauve, or perhaps Perverted Pink... lol

I wanna

I wanna be dumped somewhere in the wild pine forests within view of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Just dumped there to rot and have the bears and coyotes nibble on my toes.This offers a few advantages:
a) No memorial or big casket stuff. So it\'s cheap!
b) I\'ll be resting in the place I want to be. A place that I truly dearly love and have been lucky enough to work and play in and is truly beautiful.
c) It\'s a type of recycling. Think of compost!
And most importantly...
d) In case I have the chance to rise as a zombie, I can! Ashes prevent that sort of undeath thing, which would be really kinda cool donchya think?

Otherwise I wouldn\'t mind being cryogenically frozen to be resurrected later when they have a cure for whatever killed me.

Either way, I\'m kinda hoping for a life or undeath after I kick off.

He can turn me into a \'no left turn\' sign.

 

[Naukhel]

I don\'t anticipate there being enough of me left to be buried or cremated.

I\'m of the firm belief that I\'m going to be blown up when I kick it.

So, I guess, technically, I\'ll be cremated as my method of death.

 

[Infidel Castro]

That\'s a cool feeling to have I suppose, thinking that it\'s going to be fireworks and incendiaries that cause your death lol

Do you have any other hunches along those lines? :wow:

Angela I went to a funneral the other year, well thats if you could call it a funneral as it was on top of a Scottish mountain and took 5 hours hard slog/scramble to get to the top.

The guy was killed in a climbing accident coming off the Anach Egan Ridge and his wife had his ashes scattered from his favourite mountain.

I think I would prefer this to having bears and Cyoties nibbling on my toes

Actually, yes. I have \'hunches\', or whatever you want to call it, often. I\'m not wrong very often, when I become certain of something.

I\'d say I\'m psychic, only I\'m not sure I believe in that sort of thing. Maybe I\'m just very very observant.

Aw, man... You\'re sure about that? You don\'t want to reconsider? :~( From Blix in the movie Legend; \"Maybe innocent, maybe sweet, ain\'t as nice as rotting meat.\"

@MarkusTay: Perverted Pink? Perverted Pink? What the hell is wrong with Pubic Pink?

 

[abstract_incendiarie]

I want to be cremated and have my ashes put in a firework.

Yep! I\'m pretty sure I\'m not a man.

And no \"Blix\"ing me either! lol

...well, maybe if it was Tom Cruise, but I\'m fairly sure he likes live ones!

 

[farseerlum]

wait a minute! why do we have to die to make a diamond?

surely we can insure our nearest and dearest then crash the car \"accidentally\"

turn them into diamonds and viola!

rich, shiny and STILL ALIVE!
