    1. It ain’t exactly something I think about ever, but I had no idea that funerals were that expensive.

    2. Theres a documentary about this on netflix about how they monetized death. Pretty interesting

    3. I’ve instructed my family to put my body in a large Amazon package and leave it on the porch. Problem solved

      If I was dead, you could bang me all you want. Who cares?
      Dead body’s like a piece of trash. I mean, shove as much sht in there as you want. Fill me up with cream. Make a stew out of my ass. What’s the big deal? Bang me, eat me, grind me up into little pieces, throw me in the river. Who gives a sht? You’re dead, you’re dead

    5. What people also don’t know is you don’t have to buy the casket from the funeral home. There’s actually great websites where you can buy them wholesale and they’ll send it to the funeral home.

      Can’t afford to live, Can’t afford to die. It’s a country song title that has become reality.

    8. Any money is better spent paying bills or having a party/wake. Funerals are a waste of money.

      Doesn’t everyone just scam for funds on GoFundMe like an overpriced funeral is a necessity?

      stop having funerals. you’re dead. they’re dead. it’s a scam to guilt you into paying for shit that gets buried.
      cremation. no urn. just cremation. no ashes.
      just cremation and go away.
