    i think charnel houses and ossuaries are fine if you're that sensitive about keeping bones around but coffins are just ridiculous decadence. why the fuck they gotta be so big when when they're going to contain 1/10 of the mass in so many years?

      What really irks me about American coffins is how they're made of non-biodegradable materials. Those metal rails are going to stay in the ground forever.

      And I don't even know how American-style coffins works in crematoria. They must be removing the deceased and burning them which doesn't seem very dignified. And what are they doing with the coffin afterwards?

        resale, baby! just kidding you dont purchase a coffin for a cremation, if the corpse is on display beforehand i guess you could rent one

        but they dont care about biodegradability that spot is supposed to be the forever trash bin for their corpse till the end times, not for growing things or building over it or nothing
