KICKING THE BUCKET LIST WORD

Salud, Kids!

Go ahead and call me a cynic, grouch, grumpy-mumbly...even, curmudgeon. I'm good with those words. They fit, occasionally.

However, there are some words and phrases so overused I wish they would drop into obscurity. Can we simply make them go away? Make them fade far, far away from sight and sound, please.

The word list is long, but topping my list (at least for today)?


BUCKET LIST

Hats off and kudos to the film; etc.

But, I want to kick the bucket of this phrase.

Yikes!

I will agree we should attempt to accomplish things we dream of before we, well, you know.

But, for the love of everything in the champagne bucket, people need to toss this phrase into the scrap heap.

To quote my British mates...BOLLOCKS (a word I can fully support)!!

Now, what other annoying words or phrases need to be ditched?

Hm.

Let's think on this one.

Yell at me-if any overused words are annoying you.

Word!!

See ya 'round the beaches-real or virtual.
