What would you want done with your remains upon death? (piefed.social)

I would want cremation. Cremation and a simple marker. I wouldn't be buried at all at my marker, because I would actually want my ashes spread in two separate places. One is somewhere in my hometown and the other spot, probably around the recreational area of my middle school, where I had commonly found peace at.

My marker would have a Red Sox emblem, signifying fan for life to that team. The other symbol would probably be a resemblance of rebirth/reincarnation as a reflection of my beliefs, so presumably a phoenix would go there. Not entirely sure what exactly I'd want written on the marker. Debating on a personal quote or just say "Logged off for the last time" which references from all of the time I've spent being online.

Oh yes, I was just commenting on the fact that a wood chipper seemed a bit inefficient when it comes to the harder bits of an unused corpse. Perhaps it would be more pertinent, then, to describe this non-existing-as-of-yet invention as a bone chipper.

*I mean, there is that machine that grinds up offal into hot dog paste, but that's rather slow. We need something with more pizzazz.

Most landscapers have one.
