Kicking the Bucket

[toobfreak]

As I see this, I could have died at 40 in my prime or later say around 110. I am happy to be this old.

Say, didn't your house catch fire last 4th? Fireworks in a trash can next to your house. How did that all work out OK?

I've heard that expression off and on all of my life and I'm 54. I occasionally use it myself, just like the word "croak", to refer to death. Actually I think "croak" is a hell of a lot funnier so I use it more.

Where does this come from? I never say it. Trump said it today. He said when he "kicks the bucket" his son will be in the jungle. Do you talk like that? Why not have a bit of fun naming silly sayings and tell us if you use that term or not. Who brought the bucket? Where is it stored? Is it large? See what you can do.
You can raise hell on other posts. Try to be a bit funny if you can.

I am 87 so don't hold my bucket.

Yep, kicking the bucket, bought the farm, are terms I have used. Don't know where it came from or where I heard it first

Having a bucket list seems to imply that the bucket is your life.

Sure, of course. Bucket list is beginning. and kick the bucket is ending. That is American language for you.
