Die-monds.

Did you know that you can get a hideous urine-colored gemstone/diamond manufactured from the dead remains of your loved one? Still unclear is whether or not they use ashes or just rotting flesh, but the breathtaking beauty of death is inarguable.

See fer yerself.

According to their process details page, they extract the carbon from the ashes.

This has to be the most disturbing thing I've seen in a long time.

Pretty!!! Girls still won't like it unless it cost like $20,000 and prevents you from building a home together and/or being financial independent from Citibank.

Actually, the website says that "the most widely chosen process to create a LifeGem is to start with the cremated remains," but it does not state that a complete human carcass isn't acceptable.
