““Can we stop calling it a bucket list? Again: implied death,” I noted. “I thought it meant all the things you can fi t into a bucket to do.” “Um, no, I think it means all the things you can do before you kick the bucket. Which, actually, I think is an allusion to suicide, right? Like, kicking the bucket out from under your feet while you hang. Or maybe someone else is kicking out the bucket.””
