Would you attend your own funeral?

Only if my will is followed and Reel Big Fish play at my funeral...
It's unlikely to say the least, but if they don't I'll haunt them for all eternity.

Yeah, I'd attend my own funeral. I'd probably have a few too many drinks and start gushing over how awesome the deceased was and how hot the new widow looks. Then I'd hit on her sister. I'd probably decide to leave only after being escorted out by the bouncer.
Hell no.
If I was a ghosty thing, I'd have more fun things to do. Especially if I could still move physical objects.
Plus, funerals are incredibly boring to me. Even without the risk of being bored to death, I wouldn't want to go there. Especially since I don't really care what the people there say about me.
On the note of boring funerals, I want mine to be awesome. I'm thinking that my body should be shot out of a cannon, with a few flares in my midsection. Then, when I'm a good thousand feet in the air, heat-tracking missiles are launched, and my corpse gets a good sendoff. And then a rock band will dig themselves up out of the ground and put on a show. As a finale, the whole cemetery would then be annihilated in a nuclear blast. Because I don't wanna be a dead floaty thing on my own! It might get boring.
...would any of you like an invite?

Yeah, I'd go to see who all showed up and following the eulogy,I'd ask to play a bunch of "Weird Al" songs just to make people laugh. I want my funeral to be a big party.
Probably.
I would make it my last wish that everyone drinks at my funeral, people are much more honest drunk.

Maybe, as a ghost. I'd leave my family to it in the general details, except that I would make a point of stating before my death (maybe in my will) that I want the Bloc Party song 'Signs' to be played at my funeral. To understand why, have a listen:
Anyway, I want to be cremated. That way I won't have family members feeling guilty over not visiting my grave every year or anything, and besides, people in my family who've died have been cremated usually, so far.

I would not want to attend my own funeral because I do not want a funeral. There is no point in attempting to remember someone when in the end they will be forgotten. Funerals are meaningless.
I dunno, I'd like to pull a Tom Sawyer at mine. "aww never found the body, he must be dead" and then I show up.
No, I wouldn't attend. Frankly, I can't imagine anything more boring.
As for what sort of funeral I want: I don't care. At all. I'll be dead, so it's not as if I'll know anything about it. That said, I was amused by the last request of Hugh Everett III (famous physicist and father of the singer from Eels), which was to be cremated and then have his ashes thrown out with the household rubbish. So maybe that.
