I want my organs to be given to someone who needs them, then the rest can just be cremated. I have a fear of being buried alive, and I'm not really religious or anything, but I'd hate to feel "crushed" by 6 feet of earth when I'm dead.

Actually, I'm going to pick none-of-the-above. I've heard of a new process that can take your cremated ashes and compress them into a vinyl record. I'd like for my remains to be done as such, and for the record to have my voice recorded on it, from memorable times I had with my family, so they can cherish it, and know I'm always there with them.

I will have to say creamation for this one then I can return to the universe from which I am formed. other than that I could care less cause I will be dead and won't know I'm dead so it really matters not. The fact that I am alive in this very reality right now is the only thing that matters. "The only thing thats real is now".

I want to be cremated so my loved ones can still have a piece of me in their lives. Plus, I don't like the idea of spending the rest of time buried in the ground next to a bunch of strangers...

I recently read an article about the Urban Death Project.

 

From the FAQ, which explains it better that I could:

 

What, exactly, is being proposed for the Urban Death Project?

The Urban Death Project (UDP) utilizes the process of composting to safely and gently turn our deceased into soil-building material, creating a meaningful, equitable, and ecological urban alternative to existing options for the disposal of the dead.  The project is a solution to the overcrowding of city cemeteries, a sustainable method of disposing of our dead, and a new ritual for laying our loved ones to rest.

 

I really like this idea, so I think I would want to be laid to rest this way.

Once I am dead whatever happens to my body is irrelevant because my body is eventually going to decompose anyway even with embalming fluid. The only thing I really care about is if any organs or tissue can be used for anyone that needs them, other than that worms need to eat too and to them I say bon apetite.

Made me think of my favorite moment from Hamlet:

 

King: Now, Hamlet, where's Polonius?

Hamlet: At supper.

King: At supper!  Where?

Hamlet: Not where he eats, but where he is eaten: a certain convocation of politic worms are e'en at him.  Your worm is your only emperor for diet: we fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for maggots: your fat king and you lean beggar is but variable service, two dishes, but to one table: that's the end.

 

Oh, me?  The hell do I care? xD

I want to be made into a diamond, for Rarity's sake. After I am a diamond, put me in a closet with Rarity pictures everywhere.

I will upload my consciousness to a computer, Cryo freeze my brain to have it preserved and possibly ressurrected somehow if my "real" consciousness cannot be transferred from flesh to computer.

 

As for my body, Well.

A Burial pod to have it turned into a tree will be fine!

I would like my corpse to be launched into a star about to go supernova, so that the matter that once made me can be propagated into the universe to then become some other arrangement of itself. Or, you know, biological decomposition is fine.

 

Now that I think about it, I would like to be buried under a grapefruit tree. I love me some grapefruit.
