And Vinyly is a company that will produce a limited edition run of vinyl records (containing your ashes) after you die for your friends and family to remember you by, hopefully forcing that last thing they remembered you by out of their heads (the time you farted real loud at a family reunion and blamed it on the potato salad).

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? "Death metal?" No, although I was thinking that before. A message from beyond the grave. And to all my friends and family listening to this: please know that I'm in heaven above now, watching over you. And, if anything bad should happen in your life, I want you to that was me. I caused that. I hate you all, and goodnight. *end with unexpected blood-curdling scream*"
Thanks to Kilayi, who wants to be pressed into an album of 80's rock when she dies. Me? I want to be pressed into a peanut butter and banana sandwich and fed to all my enemies without them knowing.
