    Would it be a traditional burial or a cremation, burial at sea etc?. Personally I'd like to be buried in the earth with a a headstone marking my final resting place.

    I'd like my body to be donated to science. No cost to my family and might end up doing a bit of good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    I don't care to be quite frank. I'm not bothering to do anything about it. They can dump me in a wheelie bin for all I care.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,702 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1

    I wanna be stuffed and used to frighten the fúck out of kids.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,184 ✭✭✭marshbaboon


    Organ donation & burn what's left, or donate the whole lot to medical research.

    If neither is an option at the time, stick me in the black wheelie bin before Tuesday.

    Science can have it...

    Actually anyone know how I'd go about setting that up?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,192 ✭✭✭Sound of Silence


    I want my body bundled into a cannon before I'm shot through the windows of the Dail.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭Uriel.


    regular burial with a brass band and glitter


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,646 ✭✭✭✭Sauve


    Definitely cremation.
    Don't like the idea of slowly decaying to be frank.

    Also afraid I'd be reanimated by one of you lunatics.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    I want my dead body to be dropped from a stealth aircraft into a music festival so that nobody can figure out where it came from.

    I was just reading Keith Moons mother's eulogy from his funeral and she said if it was up to him he would have loved to had an exploding coffin in the middle of Wembley Stadium.

    Who heads will get it. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 843 ✭✭✭Whatsernamex33


    Never gave it much thought tbh, more edging towards cremations... Always have that fear of being buried alive! :O I guess with the cremation, you're definitely gone... Meh. :/

    Dissolved in hydrofluoric acid.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,072 ✭✭✭le la rat


    By a big digger


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,664 ✭✭✭policarp


    Cryogenics first, then cremation. . .

    If they can't bring me back to life, that's cool. . .
    Then cremation, that's hot. . .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,134 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    ...with fava beans and a drop of chianti.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,489 ✭✭✭Yamanoto


    As a farmers son, I expect to be fcuked into a neighbouring townlands river surreptitiously.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,084 ✭✭✭Pete M.


    wheelie bin

    The brown one...

    :cool:


  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Shot in the head a few times then hung upside down and drained. Just to be sure. They can do what they want with me then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,563 ✭✭✭dd972


    Buried, burnings for godless right footers :pac:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,679 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    Buried in the ground. No cremation for me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,351 ✭✭✭NegativeCreep


    I want my family to keep my body till the next halloween where they shall use me as the bonfire mascot, Pagan style.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭nibtrix


    Cremated, then turned intofireworksor preferably, pencils...



    Edit: Shit, wait, no, I want to be turned into a vinyl record!! (Extra points for the puntastic website name)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,882 ✭✭✭johndoe99


    cremation, if i had the money when i die, i'd love to have my ashes scattered in Outer Space.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,165 ✭✭✭Savage Tyrant


    Whatever my family wants to do with my remains is fine by me.... Don't think I'll be in a position to disagree, nor even care.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 328 ✭✭BlueSmoker


    CREmated, with A Big band, playing funk Jazz, and don't tell me I need to read through this thread, cause that just depressing, when I'm gone, I'm gone lets have a blast, I do think I was (am) an ok person, so get that funkie **** white boy

    **** = music, (yeah I know, only if I said music) well hell I'm dead, so kill me :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,029 ✭✭✭SusieBlue


    I want my organs to be donated and I want to be buried. Not keen on the idea of cremation, personally.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,568 ✭✭✭Chinasea


    It is way past time that burial should be totally banned.

    Typical that it is not a snuff to overpopulate the planet in the first place, then insist on taking up more space in the ground forevermore when they are supposedly 'departed'.:eek::cool::mad:


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 10,440 Mod ✭✭✭✭xzanti


    Buried with Family.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭deandean


    Preserved and shot into space where 200 years later the star trek lads will find me and bring me back to life. Then i will start dating 7 of 9.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,442 ✭✭✭Sulla Felix


    Burnt to a crisp and then made into an industrial diamond.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,033 ✭✭✭✭Richard Hillman


    I have an donor card so they can chop me up. After that they can chuck me in a ditch.

    Many years ago Gerry Ryan, on his radio show, asked the question where would you like to be buried.

    The funniest answer given was "up to my balls in Bibi Baskin".

    You need to get a tattoo on you that say's 'don't mess with me after death'.. just in case.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,262 ✭✭✭✭Joey the lips


    After they take what they want for science. With my sausage being so long i imagine the history musem putting it on display with the worlds 8 wonders.

    After that i am fond of the Wurthuring heights plan. I would like my coffin cut in half and slotted in beside my wifes so i can spend an eternity by her side...

    Off course she reckons this plan is mad as she thinks death is the only escape she has from me.
