Origin

On July 14th, 2017, Twitter user @scorpiosars^[1] posted an image of a teenager's summer bucket list for 2017 found in an Urban Outfitters found by "My friends, friend" (sic). The tweet gained over 13,000 retweets and 51,000 likes (image shown below).

Spread

The image was quickly mocked and applauded for the writer's ambitious goals. Notable items on the checklist include "get a boob hickey," "give two blowjobs," "have sex," "Get drunk all the time," etc. By the following day, the image had begun going viral and attracting media attention. Complex^[2] covered the bucket list on July 15th, noting that it was likely the note came from Pittsburgh, as several items on the checklist such as Stage AE Fixtures and Randyland are places in that area. Dozens of media outlets followed Complex in covering the bucket list in the coming days, including Jezebel,^[3] The Cut,^[4] Refinery29^[5] and more. Twitter user @FuriousAKL made a Google Sheets spreadsheet^[6] organizing the bucket list into four categories (shown below).
