I'd like to be cremated and my ashes scattered at the site of the Battle of Hastings, as a kind of honour to my ancestors who gave their lives defending their land and families there.
What do you want to happen to your body when you die?

Either donated to science or at least have all organs and tissues donated to people who can use them.
Anything else is a massive, disgusting waste of yourself, despite you being already, well, dead.
After that? If possible, throw it to wilderness. Don't waste space and oxygen cremating me, screw that. I'm dead, what do I care?

I wish to be stuffed and mounted on my porch with a motion activated voice box to scare the grandkids.
Well, I would like my body thrown from the edge of space from a space plane into a conveniently placed grave on top of the worlds highest mountain surrounded by a ring of fire. When my body lands in the grave (via the help of rocket boosters attached to my corpse) thousands of fireworks will go off and the guitar solo from Bohemian Rhapsody will start playing. Yep.
I don't give a shit. I'm not my body, I'm a bunch of neurons and other brain stuff.
I suppose I want my 0+ blood to be put to use, and if I die in such a way that my organs are able to be harvested I'd like that.
Other than that, fuck it. My body doesn't matter.

I don't know.
I don't want to be eaten up by worms but then I don't want to be scraped off the bottom of an oven either :<
I think I overthink it too much. Most of us will have to go with cremation anyway since there won't be room to bury us.

Well first, depending on the circumstances of my death, the hospitals can have any organs they can salvage for others.
After that, I would either like it to be donated for either medical research or medical training.
If for whatever reason that cannot be done (ie my body not in great condition) I'd rather be cremated than buried. I'm gone, so I don't see why I should be taken up space that could have better uses.
Depending on how wealthy/creepy I get letter on in my life I may go for one of the following
-Mix my ashes in with the combustible powder in fireworks for a fireworks display at the end of my funeral
-Have the ashes turned into pencils
-Have the carbon in my ashes turned into a diamond

Hmm haven't completely decided, either cremated, viking funeral, or if I am buried I will have a timbstone that states "here lays I, and I'm BLOODY annoyed"
If I go burial then I would probably donate organs otherwise they will burn with me.

First, I want all the iron to be extracted from my blood, and then the rest of me cremated. Then, I want to be compressed into a diamond, or multiple if they don't use all my ashes the first time. Then, I want the diamonds and iron to be embedded in a ring, or several. Then, I want them to give me the ring/rings so I can wear it while I walk around as a robot forever.
You'll need ~5000 GP's worth of diamonds for that! Here, take mine! x3TopazFusion said:
?I would request that my body in death be buried not cremated, so that the energy content contained within it gets returned to the earth, so that flora and fauna can dine upon it, just as I have dined upon flora and fauna during my lifetime?

Whatever is most useful/cost effective. I sure as hell won't give a damn, 'cause I'll be too busy being dead. I hear that takes up most of your time.
