When you die, would you prefer to be buried or burned (or your body tossed out to sea, cryogenically frozen, or something else interesting)...and why.

I think I want to be cremated. I don't really care where my ashes are placed as long as it's not on a mantel or indoors. I don't want to be buried because it seems like such a waste of space and too costly.

Buried. Preferably in a cheap, plain coffin. And I don't want a wake, but I do want a funeral.

I'm being cremated. For a long time it freaked me out (due to seeing the movie Scrooged as a kid--thanks, Bill Murray blackeyed ). But I'm more disgusted by the idea of rotting now, so cremation it is. Plus, it's cheaper. I don't need anyone to make a big fuss.

Cremated, definitely. I hope to live long enough that we've reached the inevitable point where land can't be wasted on dead people storage, anyway.

Years before Hunter S. Thompson, I heard about someone who was packed into fireworks and exploded over a bay.

I said "I want this for me." My mom said she would put me on medication if I didn't start talking sense. Perhaps it is frivolous, but I still think it's a beautiful send-off.

Agreed, though I first I thought it was a choice like buried alive or burned.

I was like shit, neither, then I would want to be shot!

I just wanna die with my boots on.

How about cremated and put in my boots, then dropped into a local lake for some little kid to snag when they go fishing?

There are five main funerary modes, earthen internment, mummification, cremation, sky burial, or watery internment. I suppose a sixth option these days would be compression of remains into a gemstone. of those options, i assume I will be cremated. Unless I manage to die in Nepal or somesuch, I can't see having someone willing to hack me up and grind my bones for the vultures for a sky burial

Please don't bury me
Down in that cold cold ground
No, I'd druther have "em" cut me up
And pass me all around
Throw my brain in a hurricane
And the blind can have my eyes
And the deaf can take both of my ears
If they don't mind the size
Give my stomach to Milwaukee
If they run out of beer
Put my socks in a cedar box
Just get "em" out of here
Venus de Milo can have my arms
Look out! I've got your nose
Sell my heart to the junkman
And give my love to Rose

Give my feet to the footloose
Careless, fancy free
Give my knees to the needy
Don't pull that stuff on me
Hand me down my walking cane
It's a sin to tell a lie
Send my mouth way down south
And kiss my ass goodbye
