Your Epitaph

...Or what you would like on your gravestone. It could be anything from the serious "He was a faithful husband, a loving father, etc.), or the mundane.

Personally, I'd like my epithaph to be whatever my last words were. If I said "Let the world know I did my best", then that is what I want them to write. If I said "Damn lawyers, I knew they was fuckin' me over!" then that is what I want them to write. If I said "AHHHGH!!!"...then so be it.

Nah, that'd just be creepy and wrong.

You should have the entire funeral consist of only the dialogue from Zero Wing.

When they're lowering you in to the grave, they could say "Move 'Zig'. For great justice" instead of "Ashes to ashes"...

This is a good idea of what I want (http://rememberbender.ytmnd.com/)

No idea, but to take up a good point made by someone else:

I want to be cremated. And while they slowly move the casket into the fire, I want a tape playing of me yelling and screaming, pounding wood and crying "It burns, it burns!".

"All hail the mortal goddess who made the world what it is."

^This implies that I actually did something useful and good, which is the most important part of my life, and I think I want my funeral to be a celebration of my life.

"Forget your sing alongs and your lullabies
Surrender to the city of the fireflies
Dance with the devil in beat with the band
To hell with all of you hand in hand
And now it's time to be gone, forever."

It's from The March of the Black Queen by Queen. They are my favorite song lyrics ever and anyone who knows me well wouldn't be surprised to see them on my tombstone.

You'll be the first person ever to put a smilie on your gravestone. :D

[edit: actually, make that 3rd :headbang: ]
[post-edit: or make sure you die before JuNii and Super-power - I'm not sure if his smilie is part of the epitaph though :headbang: ]
[post-post-edit: which means you could actually be the 2nd :headbang: ]

On the plaque, I'd like it to say

Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam. (I have a catapult. Give me all the money, or I will fling an enormous rock at your head.)

"Sic faciunt omnes." (Everyone is doing it.)

"Fac ut vivas." (Get a life.)
Sane ego te vocavi. Forsitan capedictum tuum desit. (I did call. Maybe your answering machine is broken.)

Prospice tibi--ut Gallia, tu quoque in tres partes dividareis. (Watch out--you might end up divided into three parts, like Gaul.)

The Latin version of "I was, therefore I thought."

The tense is more appropriate than the alternative, and the reversed order more fitting to my outlook.
