How you'll go...

[The Funslinger]

I'll probably be shot, stabbed or blown up in active duty, though I have yet to join.

If my death is encroaching (IE by bleeding) and I'm suitably close to one of whatever enemy, I have a mental image of getting a crazy adrenaline burst, lunging forward and ripping out his spine with my hand.

Incredibly improbable? Yes, but I'd love to try.

I imagine I'll be buried. Likely in the Linton church yard with the rest of my family (those who are deceased, anyway).

I'll probably be one of those people who leaves a will leaving requests for my funeral with really exact detail.

I'd just donate my body to science, but ask them to cremate what's left when they are done with it.

This

Hopefully, the circumstances leading to my death will result in my saving someone's life, so I'd either like to continue that trend in death, or at least save someone after I'm gone.

 

[Jaxs]

With guns blazing...

But if it doesn't work out that way then donate every organ possible and cremate me.
I don't want my family spending a lot of money on me.

 

[Alexias_Sandar]

Burn me. I'd say use me for compost or fertilizer, but...there's laws against that...so burn me will have to do. After donating any viable/useful organs to science/medicine.

 

[Timedraven 117]

Donate my organs, donate my fat to make Eco friendly fuel. Then give whats left to science, and then cremation. Preferably crappy cocoa mix. (I hope someone gets this refrence.

*Captcha* "Fools gold"
Your right Captcha it is fools gold someone will get that refrence.

 

[AlexWinter]

I have such a crippling fear of death that I tell myself I'm never going to die.

For the next dozen years I will probably be able to live safely wrapped in the delusion that technology will save me.

 

[Quazimofo]

Cremated and turned into fucking diamonds! Other than that, I don't care much.

took my idea you bastard!
at the funeral i can image it would be funny to do something like this, with the old spice guy.

"look down, now back up, your loved one is now diamonds!"

 

[Jaeke]

On a second thought....


OT: Probably quietly in my sleep... of course after I stop the Evil Robot Vampire Nazi Shark marine-invasion of 2043 and the Axis of Walrus-Riding Conquerers from the Great White North with only a M240 and the bigass Scottish Claymore from Braveheart in hand.

 

[Jaeke]

I want Chuck Norris to come to my funeral and cry over my coffin. Nothing is more awesome than having people think you were that man's friend.

Chuck Norris doesn't cry. His eyes are sweating from the intense cornia flexes he does.

 

[Sirtety]

Oh...

...we...
...will..

...all go together when we go. All suffused with an incandescent glow. When the air becomes Uranious we will all go simultaneous.

Yes we all will go together when we go.

Nice to see another Tom Lehrer fan hanging about.

I always find it weird when people say "My funeral isn't going to be all sad like the others; I want it to be a party!"

If they actually had a party on your funeral, it would probably just be awkward and untimely...

That's because you aren't thinking of it the right way.

Picture this....First get cremated away from others. No wake and no services. Set up a huge party outdoors somewhere, supply booze, music, maybe a bonfire (seems fitting).

Then once everyone is having a good time you get someone to pick up a microphone and give a quick speech about how you set this up pre death and ask everyone to send you off in style as your ashes are scattered to the wind. Everyone cheers the music picks up and the party continues.

That's a party I'd go to and talk about for the rest of my life.

Cremation, bury the ashes under a nice tree, or on a nice mountain after a hike.

Why cremation? well, for one thing, I don't like the idea of decomposing slowly. For two, no one can dress my dead body in a suit (it's SO not my style. It would be so messed up for any friends). And three...if there is ever a "zombies rise from their graves" thing, I will not be contributing to the problem.

As for the funeral...One formal one for any old family members who want/DEMAND it, and then a huge gamer party for everyone else, because, well...why the hell not?
