Anyone else rather not spend money for a casket at their funeral?

I'd rather be buried under a tree or with a tree sapling...

What are you going to do with yourself?

Unfortunately, what I want done with my remains isn't legal in the United States. It's called a sky burial.

@LordShadowfire launched in a rocket?

@caPnAhab Nope. The body is taken to a high cliff and given to the birds.

@LordShadowfire never heard of doing this. Sounds like a heavy task taking anyone up there.

@caPnAhab Is that a fat joke? (Kidding.)

But yeah, I imagine it's quite the undertaking. It's also illegal here, because supposedly, eating human remains causes certain unwanted elements into the food chain.

@LordShadowfire

it was an unintended fat joke lol

But I figured the reason involved animals up there eating them

@caPnAhab It does. Apparently, the US government feels it would be detrimental to the environment, but I don't quite understand how.

@LordShadowfire
If we are what we eat

And people eat so much processed garbage

Then I think I can see the reasoning
