    I have zero fucking idea what this place is but anyway on horror-able (see what I did there) thing is funeral homes, rather, the potential for SOME of them to be mean and focus on money than on the actual human experience.

    On funeral industry tactics:

    There are so many ways a confused and lost consumer can be manipulated into spending more to "honor" or "dignify" their loved one.

    Below I put a bunch of random things that highlight the dynamics, from not wanting you to brain a cheaper out-of-house casket because the body may fall out, to insisting you need something you technically don't need, to figuring out who your family is and what they do to figure out how much money have, to life insurance inflating costs, to advertising prices that do not include other standard fees.

    The post image #s may be a little exaggerated, but relevant.

    Not all funeral homes are like this, but a lot are. Read the rentry to see the whole thing.

    I am going to die soon (big C)- what is the cheapest, legal, possible funeral +corpse handling available?
    i'm a traditionalist catholic, so I genuinely want to be buried without a coffin, if not cremated (allowed by the Church) outright for less grave-maintenance costs
