Let's have fun, who wants to help me plan my funeral ?

Hi guys

That might sound a tad weird at first.
But those of you that know me will also know my sense of humour.
I want my funeral to be as fun as possible so I've been playing with some ideas

I'm not at deaths door or anything just planning ahead

Firstly everyone that gets up to deliver a eulogy must finish it with a joke.

Every body that attends my funeral will be given a gift bag of things that made my life fun
a small bottle of scotch, a dvd of rocky horror picture show,a CD of my favourite music, and a sarcastic but funny quote.

At the 'Afterlife party' I'm going to have it arranged for a guy in a Grim reaper suit to turn up with this



And then make a call to 'His boss' explaining that he has misplaced Cody

You know the sort of thing

I mean I've misplaced Cody.................

Well he was here a minute ago............

Of course I checked the coffin...........

What? Did you just ask me if someone was vacuuming the carpet? This is a really bad line..........

You did oh hang on I'll check.........

*Asks if vacuuming has been done*

What do you mean check the vacuum cleaner ? Are you suggesting that Cody's immortal sole is stuck a Dyson?......

It has NOT happened before...........

*Goes and checks vaccuum cleaner*

It's OK boss I found him...........

OK nobody likes a wise guy ..............

Just tell me whose next............

Well I suppose that is convinient.

Point at my best mate.

So to my point,if you can think of fun things to cheer up my mourners please feel free to pitch in

Cody

Hi cody

How about:

Getting cremated and having the ashes pressed into shotgun cartridges,
Then you can go out with a bang and everyone has a bit of fun haha

Can i cook you on gas mark 200 for 6 hours with some potatoes and veg?

I'd go full on Viking funeral!

Have someone nick a boat, put one of those horned helemets on your head, send it down the Thames and torch it.


We'll all sing brave songs of your conquests in far off lands, fair maidens will weep, and we'll paint murals of you drinking and partying in Valhalla.

Ashes to Ashes and dust to dust.

Insure it's a pine box or it's going to rust!

I would love one of those, But being found 6 months later in a chair full of flies will have to do

Actually I like that

My friends would love it

Ummmmmmm

If you wish Doc I suppose that's the catering taken care of

Cody

While started with good fun....this isn't a bad idea.

I've had to plan (and PAY) for funerals before. It isn't cheap...and it is the LAST thing you want to do while mourning someone. Pre-planning (and pre-paying) is a great idea. Also, if you wait until the time, you have to pay it ALL now. No financing, etc. With pre-planning, when you go, you won't leave a monumental task (and financial burden) on those you're leaving behind.

Well I do not know about your funeral, but at mine I want all the music to be death and black metal, to keep the riff raff (i.e. relatives of mine with no backbone or taste) out of the way. Also I would want to be burned outside on a wooden bed, with a cotton wrapped matress of questionable herbal substances. That way all my chums would end up with little bits of me inside them forever, and they would get a little wasted to boot.

Furthermore... BOOZE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, BOOOOZE!

I already have this plan in place and a separate insurance to pay for it, I have a great friend that is prepared to finish the details (do the bookings make up the bags burn the discs etc.)

But you make a very good point Gazrok it never occurred to me to mention the financial side.

Who'd of thought it

Fun when you die and sound financial advice in one thread

I'm going out to Lynard Skynard ................ freebird

And if I know my friends as well as I think it will be one hell of a party

Cody

First have them play this tune at your funeral:

After freebird of course (good choice)
Have them put BRB on your tombstone


That's what I plan on doing...

reply to post by Darkblade71




Great Idea



I'll BRB when I finish laughing

Cody

Buried
Remembered
But missed

Cody

I would want my ashes launched into space, preferably far enough that they don't fall back to Earth. After billions of *light* years I might end up in deep space.

Is there going to be a mosh pit in the grave?

reply to post by voudon


So far I'm going with the shotgun idea if it's possible

I think that's genius

Fired off the breakwater at Bude into the Atlantic, unless I can get the Viking burial sorted. Both are difficult but what a way to go
