...on burying people?
Fuck funerals and cremations. Get a form from your local university and sign over your body to medical science.
That way they will come along and dispose of your body for free.
But - at least here in the UK - the person who is going to die has to sign the consent forms. So y'all need to plan ahead.
The funeral business is fucked up by the way. Check out the following book if you don't believe me. It was a bestseller in the 1960's.

The woman who wrote the book was Jessica Mitford. Anyway - she was a friend of Christopher Hitchens and convinced him not to have his body disposed of in the traditional way.
So - if you avoid the funeral care system - you will be following in the mighty footsteps of Christopher Hitchens.

Only the scathing wit and searching intelligence of Jessica Mitford could turn an exposé of the American funeral industry into a book that is at once deadly serious and side-splittingly funny. When first published in 1963 this landmark of investigative journalism became a runaway bestseller and resulted in legislation to protect grieving families from the unscrupulous sales practices of those in "the dismal trade."
