Where the hell did this phrase come? Seem to hear it or read it at least once a day at the moment. Are people really that pushed for time that they cannot say/type 'things to do before you die...'

or, more accurately, "a list of things i'm never actually going to do but am going to delude myself into thinking i will achieve one day, in order to convince myself that my existence isn't always going to be so mind numbingly dull"  In other words I've found most people who have to compile lists of things to do tend not to do them. If you want to do something why not just do it instead of putting it off and making lists?

My bucket list involves 'taking everyone else out with me'.

Is it really useful to specify "before you die"?
I'm not sure it would interest many people to have lists of things to do after they die (although they would have more time then...)

You can inadvertently do stuff, that you know for sure you will never ever do again. You might never have planned it, but it just happens. I think calling it the 'bucket list' came from that film with Morgan freeman In my case at a friends 18th birthday party years ago, i proceeded to get so smashed i threw up on the stripper. The few memories i have are blurred at best, but i was told she was far from happy

Beany does exactly the same. Except the stripper is a PC. This is why he's so good a building PC's - plenty of practice.

Steveo, it's not a list of things you'd kill yourself if you did....
