Kick The Bucket
Kick the bucket means to die. Possibly refers to people who committed
suicide by attaching a rope to a beam, then standing on a bucket and and
kicking it away so they would hang themselves.
This from a website visitor:
The idiom kicking the bucket comes from a suicidal technique used years
ago. A man would tie a rope around his neck, secure the other end tightly
to a tree branch while standing on a bucket. He would then proceed to
kick the bucket out from under himself, thus killing himself and...kicking
the bucket. i think you should add "it is what it is" considering
so many people say it and it really means nothing..
