Being cheated on/ betrayal/divorce is pathetic because we may as well add being maimed or dying before our time 🙄

BigusBumus · 16/08/2020 23:53

Live by the sea or have a sea-view. I hate the sea.

ShitUsername · 16/08/2020 23:54

Anything that involves me jumping out of the sky

LightDrizzle · 16/08/2020 23:56
  • swim with dolphins or sharks
  • stay in that big luxury hotel thing in Dubai
  • appear on reality TV
  • be famous, I’m not without vanity, I’d love to be known and respected in a chosen field, but not famous.
  • own a hot tub
  • have Spa days
  • go on holidays that involve drinking all day
  • be urged to do karaoke. Oh if only I could guarantee that! I don’t mind other people doing it, although it’s not great, but I am terrified of singing in front of people.
  • have someone pull me on to the stage or sing at me at a gig. Not likely a I’m now safely over the hill.

HolyPillow · 17/08/2020 00:06

Agree with virtually everything said so far. Can I add the idea of actually having a bucket list at all, especially one full of the kind of bland, Hallmark nonsense you usually get, like swimming with dolphins and seeing the sunrise over Angkor Wat? They’re so generic and bland.

@BigusBumus, why do you hate the sea?

TommyShelby · 17/08/2020 00:06

Ski!! - just seems like going on holiday to injure yourself...

Gingerkittykat · 17/08/2020 00:14
