When I die I want to be buried IN a hammer.



THIS IS A POLISHED UTERUS:



I only went down for a drink of water, has someone spiked the water supply? I think I'm actually mad now. Yep. Loopy as an old rooster.

Where would you be buried then? Tell me.

[Dusty Gozongas]

Cardboard for me, 'neath a tree hopefully. I'm only specific about the cardboard coffin in me last will and testament.

It must have been terribly expensive to upload some photos someone e-mailed them.

I DON'T PAY MY LICENSE FEE FOR THIS!

I'm going to give my body to science - and there's nothing science can do about it. Actually, first dibs for anyone who needs any healthy organs, then science can have the dregs.

[Dusty Gozongas]

Mind you, if any of my enemies die around the same time I want these..

I'd like to be cremated and have my remains be placed in a giant firework, half stuck out of the ground, which sprayed out my ashes whenever anyone walked past. And then be hilariously defaced so it looks like a big cock.

Small Man Big Hose! (I'm sorry, that's the last time I do that, I promise)

[Dusty Gozongas]

Pcha. Those firemen, eh. It's true what they say.

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

They really do save cats stuck up trees by putting a saucer of milk at the bottom?

[Dusty Gozongas]

Are you alluding to something there?

<shudder!>

[Small Man Big Horse]

Small Man Big Hose! (I'm sorry, that's the last time I do that, I promise)

It's okay. I secretly like it.

I've often thought that the Zoroastrian way of being left on top of a tower for the vultures to eat is pretty good.  Or in a burning ship, like the Vikings.  I'll probably just get cremated though.

[Santa's Boyfriend]

Bloody hell, this is timely.  My mum died last week, we had the funeral yesterday.

Not sure why I'm posting that, but there you go.

[quadraspazzed]

Sorry to hear that Santa - my condolences, for whatever they are worth.

[Santa's Boyfriend]

Cheers.  I didn't post anything on here until now (and only cos of this thread) because I didn't want people to think I was demanding sympathy, which I know doesn't go down well here.

Life goes on, and all that.

[SetToStun]

NOT EVERYONE CARES...

Actually, fuck that - I'm sorry to hear that, seriously. As quadraspazzed said, condolences, for whatever they mean from a stranger.

[Pinball]

I'm really sorry to hear that too. My uncle and aunt died within days of each other recently. It's awful how everyone you care about gradually dies off, until eventually it's your turn. An inescapable truth.

[Santa's Boyfriend]

Thanks for your concerns - I really appreciate them.  I was really close to my mum, so this last week has been really tough, and I've been told it's going to be tough for quite a while.

In fact, if anyone can recommend useful resources regarding getting over a loss like this (eg a website about it or something), I'd appreciate it.

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

I'm annoyed this thread has been hijacked for your personal grief.

No, not really. Carry on, you have my condolences Santa.

[buttgammon]

Sorry to hear that Santa. I'm afraid I can't really offer you anything other than my condolences but I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

[duckorange]

Excellent story from my local rag (with pics)

World War II fighter ace cremated in Hawker Hurricane-shaped cardboard coffin



Condolences, Santa.

[Al Tha Funkee Homosapien]

I'm also sorry to hear that. My mother also died recently. Actually I say that but it was my cat. Actually I say recently but it was about 4 years ago. Still, I'm here for you brother. *holds up fist in a comradely salute*

[the incredible big boy]

I'm going in one of these...
