Kicking the bucket.


Everyday I go to more fucking meetings than former Soviet dissidents went on death marches. There's one word that I hear in every meeting I attend. That word is bucket, as in:

"We put this content in three buckets."
"We broke this down into buckets."
"We bucketized this."

I think bucket is an ugly word and I don't understand why its use has proliferated. Can't you say you categorized this? Or we classified this? Why is everything in a bucket? Fuck it.

It's in buckets because it's garbage.

Everytime I hear about buckets I keep thinking of that childhood song, "there's a hole in my bucket dear Liza, dear Liza."

Always wonder if anyone else noticed all the holes in their buckets.

Guess not.
