Well, we are all going to die one day!
I prefer to be cremated. (After hearing all these horror stories of people who wake up in their coffin )

Buried. That way I get the sound feeling when I die that I can rise again in hideous, soulless, flesh eating form You can't do THAT while cremated can ya? Come on, what are you gonna do? Get their shoes dirty?

Cremated...no doubt about it.
But I want my ashes interred,not scattered or kept on someone's mantle in an urn or somethimg like that.

Cremated.
Burying people takes up way too much valuable space already, it's ridiculous.

Cremated and then interred - I don't fancy being stored in an Urn on a mantlepiece and left to gather dust. Less space less waste... Also I really don't fancy being eaten by worms - no way!!!!

Good answer!
I want cremation, with my ashes scattered on the desk of my vehemently anti-smoking boss!

Buried... first to return the matter to the soil; second to not help increase queimadas and third to preserve my DNA in the case they want in the future to study a kind of arrogant ape that lived in the 20th and 21st Centuries!

Strange, I wasthinking about putting the same answer .
Cremated I guess, but I dont really care as I'll already be gone by then (well I hope I'm not burnt/berried alive).

I used to want one of those funky New Orleans style funeral processions while my casket is paraded through the street and hordes of people look on and weep uncontrollably. Now, I'd rather be mummified and buried beneath a newly constructed great pyramid somewhere in the middle of New Mexico.

My thoughts excactly. I want to at least have the chance to return as a zombie, if someone drops a dangerous chemical on the soil where I'm buried.

Buried.
But I am for embalming (like the ancient egyptians)

Perhaps he lives there... Or because the environment is pretty similair to Egypt (as far as I know, correct me if I'm wrong).

Frozen and preserved... So I can return someday and check out how prog is doing in the year 3000.
Really though... if you had the cash, what reason do you have NOT to freeze yourself? The only problem is the quality of the preservation... someone, someday is going to figure out how to revive frozen bodies... and if you're well preserved... well then you're in paradise.

Cremated, which is, of course, against my religion.

What do they do with your body after it's mutilated by college students doing dissections or practicing surgery?

Being frozen would be cool, as would being stuffed. I'd like to be cremated and scattered about my garden at home. It's less expensive.

Pickled and put on display so my Bick's recognised as a work of art... or as a culinary treat...
Actually, I rather like the thought of a Tibetan 'sky burial.' Be hacked into bite-size pieces on a mountain, have my bones crushed, and be left for the vultures to devour.

I wanna be worm food! It's all part of nature. I do believe that there's nothing scray about death. Why not do what they used to do – bury people, then after a suitable period, dig 'em up again and store the bones in an ossiary, freeing up the ground for the next batch of stiffs?
