Viking funeral, all the way for me. If I ever buy a place with a lake, that's
what I'll ask for. Then after my boat is burning, go party and celebrate hopefully what was a long, happy and good life.

I don’t like them either. I’d rather my viewing be a lighthearted meet and greet

I'm with you. I don't understand why people would go out of their way to attend a viewing for a non-family member/friend

It's in my will: if there's a viewing for my funeral, they have to string me up like a marionette for one final dance.

I'm totally ok with cremation. I think I'd prefer that over a traditional burial
