It’s not that absurd if you’re thinking of your family. Just… myself and other people have way different priorities. Some that might involve dipping my corpse in peanut butter and covering it in birdseed so that I might be the world’s first human pinecone bird feeder.

Edit: I just hope when I’m dead there is one person around to say, “He’s dead, he could in no way possible give one more single fuck…”

MightyGalhupo,

I agree with the edit so much

Honey we’ve been over this: when I die, my remains are to be embalmed and presented like so.

If you can’t afford that or don’t want to bother, just throw me in the trash 🙂

Catch me going out in that burnt mustard death whip babeee 😎

But seriously, it’s natural burial AKA “green burial” for me.

RizzRustbolt,

I’m going to have a sky burial.

Classy

I_Fart_Glitter,

Is that the one where you’re offered up to vultures while your loved ones watch them pick your bones clean and fly away?

Coffins are a huge waste of money and space. Cremation’s the way to go.

Furbag,

Just throw me in the garbage, man.

Hey, that’s taken! Find your own garbage death pit, damn freeloader.

To be fair cremation probably can cost the same or more depending on the additional cost. It’s stupid why death cost so much financially. Families already facing the emotional cost of losing their love ones.

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

It’s always been cheaper in my experience.

@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

How many people did you cremate? And at what point does it become cost effective to invest in a small kitchen cremator?

EatYouWell,

At a certain point in life you’ll usually have 6 family members who have died, and if you live even longer you’ll start having friends die.

volvoxvsmarla,

If you are an aspiring serial killer planning on serial killing then I’d say at victim #3 you should really invest in a small kitchen cremator to ignite your serial killing career

Mmmmmm cereal

magnolia_mayhem,

Fuck it. Cryo.

@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

That’s right, cryo is both cheap, viable, and resource light! Just smack some solar panels on that badboy and you won’t even have to think about rising electricity prices.

Fuck, I wish I was cryofrozen right now.

magnolia_mayhem,

If things don’t go well, I’m probably not going to mind

pg_sax_i_frage,

in general, agreed on the point about coffins, and using land just for butial into perpetuity is not a great tradition.

If and where it’s just about the use of a box, and/or about the using of land space solely for burial, then one other option they can adress bith of these is ‘green conservation butkal’.

The land is used for nature and ecosystem restoration and conservation at the same time, and there is no box/coffin required at all. They can also sometimes be less expensive than conventional burial (with the box and the embalming and so on) or even conventional cremation. Some more about the subject at:

RizzRustbolt,

Save thousands by picking the ugly color for your coffin!

kautau,

Act fast! Bile yellow is selling out quickly!

Good call on leaving the buttons in the crop.
