Two weeks ago @KeshaTedder [aka Binks] and i challenged Hashtag gamers to come up with their best suggestions for the Tag #AndThenTheWorldEnded and there were some great suggestions worth checking out.
Last week it was @TheatreAfrica co-hosting with me as we looked at #MyLastBucketListItemIs which saw 306 people come up with 1289 tweets with an audience of 727, 406 people… We were quite guy heavy as a stat of 78.1% of those playing tells you. Hopefully we will do better this week. Best way to play is to download the @HashtagRoundup app and play from there.
We briefly trended in both Americaland and South Africa. Which is quite impressive as we hit Americaland during the crazy early hours of their day while most people are still sleeping.
The most popular tweet came from @bigmacher himself with this gem:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs to one day read a whole book out loud in a library and sternly say to the librarian, “NO, YOU SHHHH”
— Jeff Dwoskin (@bigmacher) October 28, 2015
i got the ball rolling with this one:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs a list of all the Buckets I am hoping to buy off Amazon, with @BrettFishA @TheatreAfrica pic.twitter.com/baWTovFfUl
— A Frikkin Hashtag (@AFrikkinHashtag) October 28, 2015
My co-host @TheatreAfrica was prolific and did an amazing job favouriting and retweeting all of your tweets, but still found time to send in a whole bunch like this one:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs To find missing Chester @chestermissing#chestermissingpic.twitter.com/Z4ohhUf79R
— RSA Min of Dorks (@TheatreAfrica) October 28, 2015
With over 1000 Tweets flying in thick and fast it is hard to keep track, but here are some of your offerings which definitely rose to the top and made us chuckle, LIL [Laugh Inside Loud] and in one or two cases even Guffaw:
Some of you took us literally like @BrendanMcinnis with his:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs Watch The Bucket List pic.twitter.com/u6Qo6XCn0B
— Brendan McInnis (@BrendanMcInnis) October 28, 2015
While others of you ran screaming in a whole different direction like @thinkersrefuge with his:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs riding a bike made out of pizza down a hill into a pit full of kittens.
— Justin Wright (@thinkersrefuge) October 28, 2015
We at @AFrikkinHashtag would like it to be known that we do not encourage riding pizza bikes into kittens!
@Taliesyne was one of this week’s heavy hitters flinging suggestions at us like:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs cruising the Bahamas on an inflatable raft. Just me, a guitar and 50 cats
— Taliesyne (@Taliesyne) October 28, 2015
While @RadioFreeOlive got creative, or is that devious, with:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs Rent a tuxedo to be buried in. Laminate the receipt to my headstone.
— Radio Free Olive (@RadioFreeOlive) October 28, 2015
@Chris_Kokoski had a little p.s. with his, you know, as a disclaimer…
#MyLastBucketListItemIs starting a unicorn farm. You know, for the kids.
— christopher kokoski (@Chris_Kokoski) October 28, 2015
While @thinkersrefuge was back with this bid for bravery:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs to use a urinal instead of waiting for a stall to open up.
— Justin Wright (@thinkersrefuge) October 28, 2015
We had @craigflynn1 who got poetric on us:
A tall ship and a star to sail her by #MyLastBucketListItemIs
— craig flynn (@craigflynn1) October 28, 2015
While @hag_on was only looking out for nature:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs to rescue that poor creature on Donald Trump’s head and release it back into the wilderness.
— Hag_on_the_Hill (@hag_on) October 28, 2015
@gigirules7 pulled further at our heartstrings with this one for ‘Nonna’
#MyLastBucketListItemIs take my Nonna to her little village in Italy
— Regina Spacola (@gigirules7) October 28, 2015
While @RuncibleSpoun clearly knows where my loyalty lies, and his:

— Guess Netanyahu! (@RuncibleSpoun) October 28, 2015
@Joyannah73 has clearly been watching too much Oprah:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs to give everyone on Twitter a car! pic.twitter.com/t4aj4MSGe5
— Gia (@Joyannah73) October 28, 2015
Whereas @DavidProv clearly had only one thing on his mind:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs ultimate cheese party. pic.twitter.com/jM5OGK4tFi
— David Rushing (@DavidProv) October 28, 2015
One of my favourites which instantly got added to my Bucket List came via @SheJStaz:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs to drive a snowmobile on the trail that borders Norway and Sweden. pic.twitter.com/ZuVpkVrdOo
— She Likes (@SheJStaz) October 28, 2015
And @KeshaTedder’s mom probably had to type this out for her, and no surprises there:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs to finally use my gym membership. I’ll give it to you as a present
— Kesha Ted Bundy (@KeshaTedder) October 28, 2015
And as a fitting end to last week’s crazinsanityness, @5moonbeams reminded us while she is still very much in the game with this winner:
#MyLastBucketListItemIs Not to kick it
— Leena (@5moonbeams) October 28, 2015
It’s not a Top Ten List – mostly cos we went over ten a few tweets ago – and there were a whole lot of others that could have made this list had i put them on it, but the main question i will leave you with, is Are You Going To Make This Week’s List?
We have a fun tag coming this Wednesday when @AFrikkinHashtag gets going from 1pm South African time this week [due to Daylight Savings] and 6am EST everywhere else. If you’re on the Twitterer come on down and let’s see your country trend for this week’s game.
Thanks for playing!
