HELLO WORLD

Hi there! Before I get started, I know, it's caps lock day, but for the sake of not having a BRICK WALL OF TEXT AND PAIN as the opener for this blog, its coming off temporarily.

Welcome to my stupid bucket list. Alternate titles include "NOOOOO THEY BE STEALIN MY BUCKET (LIST)", "100 stupid things to do before I die" etc. You get the point.

What is a bucket list? Aside from a terribly bad movie with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson, its a list of shit to do before dying. I never heard of these fucking things until that stupid movie came out. How the hell do you fuck a movie up with MORGAN FREEMAN AND JACK NICHOLSON? It should have been the best movie ever. It should have exploded DVD players when it was loaded. It should have killed entire theaters full of idiots when they went to see it.

I'm getting slightly off topic here.

This blog will be two things. My bucket list, and blog posts about items on my bucket list, both when I complete them, and when I just feel like talking about them. I'm sure I'll add things to it as I go.

Some of these goals might seem unreachable, but holy god damn I will try!
