Your bucket list

[Catharsis]

No particular interest in skydiving or swimming with dolphins, so no...

Bucket listing seems kinda abhorrent IMO... the strip-mining of the Earth for experience/selfies that we attach some sort of pseudo-Buddhist karmic absolution to. I guess by all means have your list of holiday destinations you want to visit. What's nauseating about bucket listing is:

1. the defining of one's life by such a list
2. the attachment of deeper meaning to the items therein

One can define one's life by a list but it's a list of things to be, not things to see! Can nobody dream properly anymore?

(Dolphins don't even want to swim with you. And skydiving? Oh well done, you fell out of something. Why not just get blackout drunk and fall out of a taxi.)

I bet you're a blast at parties.

- plow some asian fields

- moar nordic plowing

 

[Kozmos]

Well I would like to die on Mars and just be a general dead body obstruction there for budding colonists there. Aside from that not much else, maybe try a woman who's taller than me, see what is that like.

I think the idea is to give people the illusion of what it's like to be a bird.

I found it gives much better perspective on being a rock than a bird.

You left out "kill all resistance."

 

[The_J]

Partially the same as my new years resolution (or an extension of it):
Short term
- get the PhD
- different gym achievements (like deadlift 2x body weight, run a half marathon)
Long term
- trip to Mongolia
- and to the door to hell (in turkmenistan)
More things to come

Well, if you do it right, you won't end up like a rock.

 

[Timsup2nothin]

Well, if you do it right, you won't end up like a rock.

Even if you do it right you end up dangling from a parachute...which is more like a plastic model soldier than a rock, but still even less like a bird.

New bucket list:
-Buy more buckets
-Find markers that can write on buckets without smudging
-Write more lists on buckets

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

my bucket list is die

 

[Timsup2nothin]

my bucket list is die

Heck, I'm just glad to see you alive.

 

[JollyRoger]

1. Destroy The Right
2. Keep Western Civilization Great
3. Celebrate

1. Destroy The Right

3. Celebrate

Looks like you're going to be disappointed. Rule #1 in goal setting is to set challenging, but realistic goals.

 

[Broken_Erika]

1: Destroy Everything
2: Make all Civilizations Dead clearing way For Dolphin and/or Martian Colonization.
3: Celebrate and Laugh Maniacally with new Dolphin and/or Martian Overlords

 

[El_Machinae]

Dolphin laughter is delightful!

Ki ki ki ki!

I don't have a list of activities, but there's a ton of places I want to go and see eventually.

African safari/see the savannah.
Pyramids and the Nile.
Visit a rainforest, don't really care where though probably amazon or somewhere in africa. But bugs and other wildlife like cairendiru and piranhas scare the crap out of me so I don't want to hike or anything, just like see it and leave, maybe see if from an enclosed pod if that's available lol.
See the Taj Mahal
Visit greece and the parthenon
Visit the vatican
Visit ireland and frequent some pubs
Walk on the great wall of China
Visit new Zealand. I want to see the lotr film locations too!
Go on an alaskan cruise and see whales and crap

Realistically I will probably only do 2-3 of these things as they're all quite expensive and I have security concerns about many like going to Egypt right now. I think when my kids are grown and through college wife and I will consult our finances and decide what to do.
