That took me way too long to get - quality dark humor!

[–] Spaghetti_Hitchens@kbin.social 46 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What is this- an urn for aunts? Should be at least 3 times that size.

[–] i_dont_want_to@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 1 year ago (3 children)

These are for a small amount of cremains. My family has a few of these, to have a small amount of the deceased. The main urn is significantly larger and is with the widow.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Wait, so different family members can each have a small amount of a deceased loved one?

First time i hear if this. Is it like, really common?

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

My mom and aunts split my grandmother's ashes evenly in 3 identical urns. We also used incredibly tiny amounts in urn jewelry (jewelry with a small chamber).

Exactly. I only first heard about keepsake urns when we were dealing with my father's cremains last year, so I don't think it is super common.

[–] Confused_Emus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

My 2 sisters and I each have one of these small urns of our grandmother's ashes. Our mother has the large urn. Doesn't necessarily make it common, just volunteering that I have one.

[–] supert@lemmy.sdfeu.org 2 points 1 year ago

It's to prevent the dead rising again.

[–] Nath@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago

Great. Now I have Mambo No. 5 in my head.

🎵 A little bit of Monica, on my right
A little bit of Rita, by my side
A little bit of Jessica, here I am... 🎵

You get the idea.

[–] XTornado@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Ugh.... Humans and our ideas for the dead... Like no offense to other people... They can do whatever... But I do not need that...

[–] K0W4LSK1@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 year ago

My aunt would definitely not fit in there. That's an urn for your crackhead cousin

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 37 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Try the all new urn butt plug. Keep your loved ones with you, always.

Why is that urn so tiny? Aren't human remains bigger? Maybe she's only got part of dad

[–] JoeyHarrington@lemmy.ca 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Probably shared ashes among family members. It's weird. We did it with my dads ashes.

[–] Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

I've heard of making jewelry or even mixing the ashes with paint to make art. Whatever my kids wanna do with my remains when I'm gone is up to them, shoot me into space, blow me up for military research, turn me into art. Whatever, I'm gone have fun with it!

[–] maquise@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I actually think the idea of getting “bricked” from Andor is pretty cool, though you’d need a culture around it to work. Loses its impact if you’re the only one doing it.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Want to make a fortune? We advertise this on conservative sites and use the bricks to build the wall on the Mexican border.

[–] Not_Alec_Baldwin@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a memorial urn. My mother bought a few for family that wanted something to remember her by, but her ashes aren't in it. They've been scattered.

So it's really just sentimental clutter.

Some people are really attached to physical representations of things. They want a grave site to visit, or an urn to have. It's probably just a mental thing, but it seems to be really common.

[–] Belzebubulubu@mujico.org 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Also, "99%" of the time, you are not getting the full amount of your loved ones in a simple urn. The amount of ashes a person creates is simply too much to hold. Most of it mixes and gets dumped in the trash every day.

Taylor has better legs

[–] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 12 points 1 year ago

It's the butt plug that goes with the dress.

[–] SleepingPanda@aussie.zone 11 points 1 year ago

Really into black and blue dresses...they both look great!

But what do I do if Taylor Swift is my dad?

Taylor Swift.

[–] art@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Your dad looks great. Did he lose weight?

I'm very tired of this person
