Can we chalk this one up to peer pressure? Talk about insecurity.

great now when my grandma dies shes going to have some double d's..

its already weird enough, with the amount of makeup they put on, I'd like to have my dead people look like I remember them.

Meh, I plan to have a Viking funeral, so I don't really care what I look like.

I plan on having my body loaded onto a trebuchet and launched out to sea.

I suppose I'd better have my body surgically altered to be more aerodynamic for better distance.

I fail to see how this is any less ridiculous than embalming.

So if we zombified one of them would it qualify as bringing sexy back?

Pfft, have a closed-casket service. Problem solved.

My aunt Betty never looked better than when I couldn't see her!

I already look perfect, so this is a non-issue for me. What stupidity people wish to display (before or after death) is their own affair.

Michal Jackson= PHAIL

Dead people+plastic surgery= EPIC PHAIL

What's so strange: Berlusconi, Cher and Michael Jackson are DEAD since the '80s, but thanks to surgery and microimplants they still look alive!

Welcome to the world of zombie cyborgs.

that is kinda crazy.

but isnt this what cremation is for? no need to pick out a dress for grammy if she is in an urn.

Doesn't plastic surgery usually leave nasty scars that have to heal up for a couple weeks/months/years before it looks even remotely "natural"? We're going to have a whole lot of dead people looking like Frankenstein's monster, and what if the stitching bursts?
"Mommy, why is Grandma's face sliding off?"
"Um, let's not look at it, dear. Let's go over there and--OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, TIMMY, DON'T TOUCH IT!! NO, DON'T PUT THAT ON! IT IS NOT A MASK!!"

yeah i dont think that cosmetic surgeons usually work on dead people. it has to use vastly different techniques when there is no physiological feedback to what is being done.

What if I want people to say I've got a firm, shapely ash?
...
I'll show myself the door.

Not before the beatings.

Talk about a waste of money....

and they can use a whole new range of tools.

like say... Crazy Glue? a thousand and one uses... now a thousand and two.

true

i dont see a need for surgery but there may be a market for a morticians make up artist with a different point of view--to make the deceased look younger and "perkier".

id still go with cremation. i dont need to look like im trying to get picked up from inside the coffin.

... ok, so why is there an ad for TOP CHEF in this thread? :eek:

the memory glass that was on earlier tho... that looks promising to me. If I wasn't planning on turning myself into a gem.

ROFL! Epic Win!

what the hell?
I think there's nothing more pointless than this process. except for funeral directors to milk more cash from families dealing with their dead. sick fucks.

There's a sucker dead every minute.
