I find the idea of pumping my body full of chemicals and locking it in an airtight box so only the anaerobic bacteria can feed on me to be abhorrent.

Cremation is a lot cleaner, and what I will probably be forced to do, but at the same time a waste of nutrients. Soylent Green jokes aside, there is much in nature that could benefit from a body that I no longer have a use for.
That's why I plan on being buried at sea. Think of all the fish that could feed on me, and then think of all the people that could feed on those fish. And then think of those people thinking about what the fish ate last, my ass.
