How to use kick the bucket in a sentence?

  1. George Orwell:

    you can't live life without consequences. They occur regardless of the decision. A consequence is an outcome, good or bad. You can live life without regrets and thats what makes it worth it. Or you could live with regret and end up hanging yourself but thats still good. You paid for the rope so your feeding someones family. Something to be proud of before you kick the bucket

  2. Larry Park:

    There was a point where Ed Ray was like, ‘You got to know when to kick the bucket.’ But who kept going? Who said, ‘No, we're not kicking the bucket. We're going to get out of here.’ You know who said that? I don't know. Maybe the guy sitting beside me.

  3. Michael Marshall:

    And then you hear the dirt and rock and the shovel hitting the top of the trailer and—we're being buried alive, my thought process was if we're gonna stay down here and kick the bucket, we might as well kick it trying to get out.
