    I can’t care about what happens to my remains. I’m dead, it’s just stuff at that point. Take my head bowling. Feed my remains to piranhas. Make a kite out of my skin and fly it from the top of a building. Reverence for dead stuff is part of why this world sucks.

      Do you care about taking things from people without consent?

        dead people are just a body, not people anymore.

        I doubt the dead person cared. Are you in the habit of claiming dead people’s stuff?
