You ever ponder how many people will show up at your Funeral?????????
 

I know its a grim thing to think about but I hope i get at least 50 peeps

Couldn't care less.

any volounteers want to try?

For some reason I read this thread originally as "You ever ponder how many popups will show up at your funeral??"

:eek7

i do not have 50 people lining up for inheritance, so i guess just a few so far... lol

If I started this thread, cherrylula would make a fast psychoanalysis again...

I hope no one. It's a nice sentiment and all, but seriously. The whole burial process is so stupid, especially when you consider the price tag involved.
I'd almost rather die out at sea or lost somewhere so there's no burial or cremation costs... just gather have some finger sandwiches, talk about how goofy I am and call it a day.
Dying has become a burden on the living. It used to mean something... now it's just a commercial business. Like love. It used to mean something. Now it's a February holiday for florists, card makers and chocolate companies.

couldn't care less about pop-ups, but charge-backs would suck :winkwink:

Does it really matter?

The number is in direct correlation with your post count. You have nothing to worry about.

It doesn't really matter cause you're dead

Well you could care a bit less... starting with not having had read and replied to this thread.

Not at all.
But I really *would* like to know when it will be.
It would make planning so much easier :1orglaugh

I don't care if anyone comes. I'll be dead so I won't know who's there anyway.

I for one would much rather focus on enjoying a quality life with family and friends and experience all I can with the joy of being alive and thankful for this one time opportunity on earth.

Our time here is too short to dwell on trivial things such as whom will show on the garden lawn when we're gone, for it is not the number present that dictates your greatness, but how you affected the lives of others while you were alive.

I plan on having free beer so I'm sure the relatives will all show up.:1orglaugh

7 ......oh my god !!!!!

Sometimes at family gatherings I will look at the younger people and think about how they will one day see me laying dead in a coffin.

I also think about what will happen to my body. If it is sudden, who will find me? Will an autopsy be required? I watched an autopsy video on YouTube yesterday and there was no respect for the dead. They were ripping through her body like they were slaughtering cattle, throwing body parts around.

agree with you totally, I don't want to even have one, and the idea of forcing people that are really in a state of grief to hang out in public with other people and totally disrupt their lives to a public display of basking in grief sucks as well, I would think the healthiest thing is to try to maintain the day to day life as much as possible without adding to the already disrupting emotion of it all

yeah, you hope to be found fast or pass away in a hospital, nothing nastier than the job of finding and removing long dead bodies must be..... have you seen those photos that have been circulating of the body they found in a bathtub like a month later after he died? can't even imagine the job the people that have to clean up after that would be :throwup

I thought about it especially after just dealing with it with my dad. About 90 people showed up for him. As for me, all my relatives are older so unless I die young they will all be dead. I dont work for a company so I dont have co workers, I dont have kids. So I figure my wife and my younger bro and sis and their spouses and kids and a few friends.So unless something changes it will be a very small group.

Juice, I will fly over and let them play Bee Gees or something.

more and more people are requesting no funeral, no service, nothing at all - i know two people who died in the last month, both guys in their 40's, died much too soon - neither had any burial service or anything at all. just gone - cremated - and that was that.

I don't care at all.

weird fact , when i pass they will scrape off all my tattoos before they bury me in a jewish cemetary...

No funeral for me. I want everyone that is left to get together and have a party. Tell funny stories about me and laugh.

they can use it to make a lamp shade...


ooops, we had that already :helpme

"You ever ponder how many people will show up at your Funeral?????????"

yep

yeah i think about it. and tell my family to make it a fun party. with a live band.

Yeah, the price now just to bury someone is ridiculous. It's bad enough for the family that someone has died, but then the family have another huge worry about the cost they now have to lay the person to rest. It's not right.

I'd rather go quietly, with minimum fuss, cost, and let people move on with their lives...

Who remembers the Wedding Crashers scene with Will Ferrell at a funeral?

Dark thoughts, man!

My plan is to outlive everyone else.

They want let me to the Jewish cemetary because I fucked many women and lived a sinful life!

I'd rather have a few loved ones come say goodbye to me while I'm still alive. But a bunch of crying babes would be cool too.

I couldnt care less. :S

50 is too much,who has so many friends.... :upsidedow

just don't give a fuck...
when I'm dead...

if ya pay off the guy i think he will let ya in loll

I already told my daughter to wrap me in a blanket and bury me in the backyard. If they feel the need to gather, just take whatever moneys left in my purse and go buy everyone hot fudge sundays at McDonalds.

I think a lot of people here would have a huge "virtual" attendance from all their "friends".

Dont care, cause I wont know anyway, what with being dead and all...
But you can plan every other last detail here:
