    Just spread my remains in Central Park.

    I don’t wish to be cremated.

      The last time I visited my mom, we ended up on the subject of death somehow. I said this line verbatim to her, not fully serious, but not really joking either. She was not amused.

        If sky burials were legal where I live I would absolutely do that. Closest to “throw me in the trash” you can get while still “respecting the dead”

          I’m just gonna donate my body to a medical school. What they do with me after they’re done with me is their problem.

    Wait till you get to deal with all the nightmarish legal red-tape (not to mention the parasitic death industry feeding on all of it) that a death in the family brings.

    Most of us are literally too poor to die.

      I was thinking about this earlier and if I ever have kids, I’ll disown them from the grave if they have me embalmed or cryogenically frozen instead of taxidermied or cremated. I’m hoping for a wacky taxidermy if anything.

      People who are in on the scam know to cremate the body, but the cremation industry is clearly also a scam.
