This is causing some controversy...

And this being the most controversial site on the interwebs, we have to post it here...

Why??? Is it any different than cremating? It's not like your loved ones are going to feel a thing, you know?

this need some spartacus, btw. The only one able to offer a professional opinion

I agree. What's the advantage??? What's next, put them through a meat grinder?

Either launch my body through outer space (cool!) - or burn me and bury my ashes. I don't want my body lying in the ground with maggots eating me up.

Not sure how I feel about the space idea, but I'm all for cremation.

I just want it to be cheap and not a big inconvience for my family. So whatever they wanna do is ok with me.

At least with cremation the smoke goes up into the air ... a little even ... it's ... it's just not dignified to be flushed down the drain, I'm sorry. You flush goldfish.

"I'm going to have grandma turned into biological sludge ..."

Not that I think preserving a body with chemicals, popping it into a box and sticking that under the earth is any more logical, okay? What the fuck are we saving them for? Frankly I think the most logical thing is a body farm, let the body naturally decompose and go back into the earth.

But flushing them ...

 

[bigpimpin25]

i do not like this idea at all , the thought of my loved ones body being fuckin dissolved and turned into a sludgey mess and flushed down a drain........fuck that

 

[stosstruppe]

Cremation for me. Seriously, wasting land burying corpses in extravagant coffins ?

Funeral Service Insider costs 295/year
I throw them away

I could give a fat rat's ass what is done with my body when I am done with it.

Cheapest, easiest is what I want. If flushing that body down the drain is the ticket - WOO HOO.

As I said, "I am done with it. WTF do I care to make peeps like Spart rich off of my family's displaced sense of guilt?"

(Not a personal attack on anyone. Just how I feel about my shit once I am done with it.)

 

[mountain muscle]

I think it sounds pretty cool.

Personally I want to have a big party when I die with my body in the center. At a certain point during the party I want to be blown up all over every at the party.

That way, everyone can take a piece of me home with them, in loving memory.

I'm a giver.

It's environmentally friendly.

There's at least some ritual to creamation. Flushing the remains down the drain? Jesus. I couldn't do that to someone I hated.
