"Bucket List"

Eight Taiwanese Teenagers

During a work thing this week, I was asked what is on my "bucket list". Setting aside the fact that it is a truly horrible turn of phrase, it's never been something I've thought about so could only come up with the vaguest of things; see the world, start a nice family, be happy.

Everyone else had stuff like climbing a certain mountain, doing some risky extreme sport, or other such specific stuff.

Is it a good and healthy thing to have these goals to work towards or is the aim to "be happy" enough? Is it possible to "be happy" without any specific goals to measure that happiness against?

Could almost go in the 'Obvious things...' thread but for ages I thought a 'bucket list' was a list of the things you hated i.e. would happily consign to a bucket. Why is a list of nice things you would love to do called a 'bucket list'? Why not a... 'gilded box' list?

Or...

something.

Things you want to do before you "kick the bucket".

Well why not just call it a 'Kick the bucket' list

I'd call mine a Farm list.

Then people might think it's a list of things you want to kick into a bucket.

That would be your 'Kick into a bucket' list

It's right up there with "where do you see yourself in 5 years". If you want to do something that much, do it. Put it on a credit card if you have to, or save money, or whatever. It's either a disappointingly mundane thing that you could actually do easily (parachute jump, go to Tokyo, see the Pyramids) or clearly fantastical (anything involving Kat Dennings).

Not if it is assumed that you will always miss and end up just kicking the bucket.

Well it isn't really, it's things that you feel you ought to do at some point.  Hence the weary sigh of 'well another ticked off the bucket list' when you have done something that you felt you ought to experience once (e.g. anal).

I have nothing on my bucket list. I already did the one thing that was on it.890-*+++++++++++-

HappyTree

Oh, that was one of my cats adding, I guess, what's on her bucket list. Looks like she wants to eat 890 anchovies.

Drink milk from the breasts of a Burmese maiden
Get a short story or similar printed in a reasonably serious publication
Go to New York and Tokyo
Go to a proper mental decadent place like Berghain just to see what it's like
Drink a stupidly expensive bottle of wine

Kat Dennings

I just looked her up because I'd never heard of her and her real name is Kat Litwack.  That's a much better name and sounds positively rude.  Just thought I'd say.

Ideally, I will have realised all my ideas for films and books and shows and all the rest of it. Practically, I'm fucking terrified I won't do any of it.

Also a kiss would be nice.
