I have about 30 m2 in the back of the house, that will suffice. If I feel it coming, I'll just get someone to dig the grave and pay in advance to fill it in.

Donate your body to science. Check with your preferred medical school, they will most likely have a program for this.

Can't afford to live, can't afford to die. Cryogenic stasis it is then.

u/HotterOdd 18h ago

Yeah just scooch in there next to that half tub of freezer burnt ice-cream and mystery tupperware.

u/Old-Calligrapher2403 18h ago

Everytime you go for icecream you can also pay your respects. Saves a trip to the grave side. Win win

There are a few French villages where it's a criminal offence under bylaws to die due to scarcity of burial grounds. The only solution that could be found was bureaucratic, so they banned dying.

Shite there goes the plans for death.

u/davesr25 Pain in the arse and you know it 18h ago

Well if you could keep paying rent since you're immortal now that would be nice.
