    How would you do your funeral service?

    Cremated someone last week, and it was the same as always:

    Lines of people sitting, sad music, a preacher that says a few words, close relatives that say a few words, more sad music, final goodbye and then a reception sort of thing with coffee and a slice of cake.

    That has pretty much been every funeral service ive been too so far. And it always makes me think: Fuck no im not going out like this.

    When i go out, i want an open bar, i want everyone to become hammered. No sitting down, party tables everywhere. No generic light, a slightly darkened room with a soothing yet sad colourscheme. A band or a DJ. Make it a party.


    the light/darkened colour scheme im talkin bout

    A beamer projecting pictures and video´s of me doing dumb shit, so everyone can have a big last laugh.
    And maybe a fireworks show after the whole thing.

    A funeral that signifies the way i lived.

    How do you want to go out?

    I do not want a funeral. But after you are dead, it is up to the family. Personally I want to be cremated ( cheaper ) and then my wife or family can do what they want with the ashes. But no memorial service is fine. No need to burden my surviving family members with a cost. The money can be spent in other ways much better. Usually you will see a bunch of hypocrites at funerals anyway. Like in the case of my dad, family members would never go visit him while he was alive, showed up to show their respects. Best to show someone respect while they are still alive.

    As long as it's not a religious ceremony then I'm not too bothered. I'd like people to have fun and remember it.

    Fill the church with foam and force all the attending to trip out on acid.

    Then in the end i want the casket to explode with me inside it.

    What is wrong with not caring about my own funeral service? It's not like I'm going to see it.

    Why would it bother you after you are dead?

    If you'd gone to Croydon during the riots, you could have been cremated and scattered over a carpet showroom in one go. You missed a trick there.

    Personally, I am sure I will not after I am dead. But I have told my wife there is no need to spend anymore to get rid my remains which is legally necessary and for any type of memorial which will cost her money she can use for better and more needed stuff.

    yea while i'm dead and it won't matter. I suppose I could chuckle from now until death if I knew my ashes would be mixed into random drinks at a bar, or my corpse donated to a necrophiliac cult.

    Just something to chuckle about on my deathbed.

    So mean....

    the last funeral I was at... one of my best friends. fuck, I've been near a nervous breakdown.. I - at some point - started to cry like I never thought was possible. My whole body went into seizure kind of a state.
    It was all cool and everything, until they played that damn song.. It was his favorite song, and I don't know how often we've sang it at our club in all beer moods and stuff.. That's when I've gone down south.



    My own...... fuck if I'd know..
    I always thought that I did want some decent funeral myself, and I want them to play

    Genesis - Supper's Ready
    Since that is my absolute favorite song.

    If I survive my family(parents and sister etc..), its not like anybody will come to funeral. So why would I care?
