Ever think about your funeral?

I can’t decide whether to be cremated atop a hill, pushed from shore on a burning long boat or flung into the sea from a catapult.

sorta... the lack of, actually. i want to be cremated and feel unconcerned about any gathering/memorial, but feel strongly about my ashes being scattered somewhere, not kept in an urn.

i think two of the things you mentioned might be illegal, depending...

Legality will not be my concern, on account of being dead, like. @SW-User

@Jimbojambo what about the people who are actually committing the acts?

@SW-User we’ll do it in secret by the light of the moon 👍

@Jimbojambo that's how it's done! ;)

@SW-User on a serious note, I honestly think there should be more options for people. I hate the idea of the traditional burial, and disappearing behind the curtains is horrible.

SW-User

@Jimbojambo i agree. the Viking funeral appeals to me. also the green burials, but i don't wanna get buried. i want every trace cremated to smithereens

i know someone who spread their mother's ashes in a national park bayou, which is illegal, but hey... everything's legal, if you don't get caught.

@SW-User I wonder where the law stands on private land? I think I can remember someone having a pagan cremation in Scotland.

@Jimbojambo you'd have to research wherever you're located. a destination funeral could be interesting.

@SW-User I thought funerals only led to one destination! 😉

SW-User

@Jimbojambo ha! well, if that destination is nowhere, i'm know i'm gonna love it there! ;)
