Don't even need to wait until he dies. Just pick a yacht.

That’s not a Viking funeral, that’s just regular Viking.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

I'll take it.

I've always wanted to honor my ancestors by going a-viking. Do you get more Odin points for sacrificing a billionaire over a millionaire?

[–] fiddlesticks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago

Better get both just to be sure

"... ~~Chuck~~ catapult ..."

Or trebuchet. Either way, super glue a Molotov cocktail into each hand and hurl away.

[–] GroundedGator@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

Nah pack my body and clothes with thermite.

Hunter S Thompson: Pack me into a cannon at the top of a 150 foot tower and fire my ass into the sky while Tambourine Man plays.

drug checklist scene from Fear & Loathing intensifies

That’s Mr. Tambourine Man to you, bud.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

So, Mr. T.?

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Awesome. I'll settle for their Ferrari.

I think people fail to realize the cost difference in sports cars and yachts.

I spent a fair bit on a Porsche but wouldn’t dream of owning some of the monster boats my neighbors haul and those aren’t even yachts.

That just sounds like raising the insurance rates for all the normal people. You need to get the rich guy on the boat to even out the pain

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wait, who said anything about leaving the rich bastard at home?

[–] linearchaos@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm down, let's fire up the BBQ

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

someone said bourgeois tenderloin?

[–] dQw4w9WgXcQ@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

I want a viking funeral, but to save expenses, skip the boat. Chuck me into the ocean and fire arrows at me until I sink.
