Plan Your Own Funeral (in a good way)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Well, a very close friend of mine just told me that she had a dream about me on Saturday night, in which something really terrible happened to me. So that got me thinking about my funeral. It doesn't take much, these days.

I want a big fat part-ay. I want good food and good music--something to dance to. I don't want any crying or mourning or gospel (unless it's Christian rock and the good kind--I haven't come across the 'good kind' yet but I have hope). 'Amazing Grace' is strictly banned.

Am I an anomaly? I mean, I'm dead--there's really nothing you can do at this point apart from have a good time at my expense. Just shove me in a closet or something. It'd be nice if I got buried eventually, but that can wait till the hangovers subside.

I guess this means I should take out a whopping insurance policy. And if my friend turns out to be psychic, it was nice knowin' you all and have a good time at my funeral.

Just try not to puke in the coffin.

Well, I say it's a bit unsporting of CorpPunk not to let us puke in the coffin...

How about being preserved in a barrel of brandy, pirate style? Has the advantage that one can make a start on it whilst still alive...but actually, I've got a better idea.

I'm a vegetarian...with the occasional fishy lapse...Ed's a proper veggie. We have 3 very carniverous cats. Cat food tin labels are a bit boring.

So all we need here is a nice big mincer, a scanner to do commemorative pics for the labels...& everyone's happy. Should sort out the comedy goth contingent nicely, too...in the immortal words of Terry Pratchett, vampires have risen from the tomb, the grave...but none have EVER risen from the cat... :lol:

Of course - it's one of his "projects".

I'm nearly as big a KLF fan as I am a Sisters fan, and, despite them both moving slowly, at least his "projects" are funny.

I think theres a directory at http://mydeath.net

Check out the penkiln burn site.

Nice try, but I'm one of those anal collectors. Find a band I like and it takes me about a week to get everything they've ever done on every different format.

Girlie, I like the way you think. You can be the executor of my will.

By the way, if I die near Halloween, costumes are mandatory.

Oh, and I'm not dead yet. Which kinda sucks, cos I got myself all excited about the party. :roll: :wink: :lol:
