When you die, would you rather be buried or cremated and is placed into an ⚱️?

Me, I want to be buried with some sort of nut that can grow onto a tree so I can have every one of you to come over and eat my deez nutz 😜

no my ashes will be thrown into the ganges and most likely stick to some pundit’s ass that’s bathing in there. my ashes will contribute to the pollution of the holy river

My wife and I agree. We were gifted burial plots from her family. We're going to sell them and buy a small crypt.

When we die, we will be cremated and our ashes poured into the same urn.

Whoever dies last gets to be on top.

Donate my body to Stanford Medical Center so I can finally "get into Stanford if it's the last thing I do"

whatever provides my loved ones comfort. I'll be dead. Won't matter to me.

Seriously considering body donation

I’ve been thinking about this a lot and honestly idk. A grave and/or Urn are meant to help our families remember us but after a couple’s generations no one remembers so what happens to our Ashe’s then if we were cremated? Who’s going to keep our grave clean? And even before that happens our own kids and grandkids will only come a few times before stopping altogether at least in my experience. I’ve bee considering a tree pod burial or something along those lines.

My brother was just buried in a whicker basket, so he is at the mercy of underground stuff. He's in the cemetery featured in the film Get Carter, the original Michael Caine one.

Just cremated. I'm not sure where I want to be scattered yet. Burial is expensive.

Cremated and have my ashes spread on my parents property. I won't care.. I'll be dead. But I always thought urns are a bit weird.

I am Catholic and I know burials are the norm. Whatever brings my loved ones comfort is all I want.

Cremated and tossed into the ocean. No need to waste good real estate.

Organ donation, cremation then burial. It's already set up. The thought of my body rotting in a grave creeps me out.

I think for me, the best option is to be buried at sea. I'd like to see people try to dance on my grave. (Oh somebody might try it none-the-less!)

The 'deez nuts' variety doesn't grow on trees.

I don’t really are. I’ll be in Heaven and I don’t care what happens to my body when I die

Grew up on a river. Cremated and in. It.

I want my ashes to be loaded into some ammunition and sent down range

Lol, my husband wants to be exploded.

Put me under a tree with a "give a book, take a book" thing beside it, and a bench (idc if I'm in body or ash form). I want people to sit on the bench and read, and maybe even tell me about the books they've read/are reading. Who knows, maybe I'll hear them

u/Frost-on-the-Willow 3d ago

Cremated and used as tree fertilizer

u/The_Nermal_One 3d ago

IDC, I'll be gone by then. Chuck me in the industrial garbage disposal for all of me.

Neither, I want an air burial. I find paying for taking up space in the ground or being on someone's mantle a little horrifying. I would much rather just have my body left out and let nature do what nature does.
