Art holds a mirror up to Nature. The Buckets come along, turn the mirror on Art and say, “Look how goofy you’re acting. Now get to work, Art. Your kids need an Xbox 360.”
The Buckets comic strip isn’t a parody of family life. Parodies are filled with hearts and rainbows or enraged tirades and dramatic confrontation. The Buckets, though? Nope. Real life, baby. It’s funny because it’s on a page and not in your house at the moment. Next week, when it’s happening to you, you’ll thank us for reminding you that it’s supposed to be funny.
Greg Cravens looks in the mirror and see not himself, but all of us. And then he draws up the silly, grand, goofy, thrilling, utterly human things we do and calls it The Buckets.

Just eat your food, Eddie, or Toby will eat it for you and you’ll go to bed without dinner… :D

I stopped complaining about food when I went to Uni and nobody cared if I complained. Needless to say picking eating went out the window.

I didn’t complain, but started cooking myself instead.
To be fair: I had no reason to complain since my mother cooks very well. But that way I could decide what food there will be for dinner

My 7 year old daughter is extremely picky, she doesn’t even like normal “kid” foods like pizza or hot dogs – she does like mac n cheese but my 12 year old daughter doesn’t.

With six kids, picky meant no dinner.

Exactly!
I lived in group homes from age 10 to 18. If I wanted to be “picky” I ended up with no food. MAYBE if I was lucky, a Peanut Butter & Jam sandwhich, but that would be close to 9pm when I was allowed that!

Whatever you say Eddie.

I guess ‘Uni’ is short for University. When I went of to College we all ate at the best cafeteria in the world. Of my 4 years there I can’t recall any bad meals. But of course I’m talking about Mitchell Hall ’75 through ’79. I still dream about their steak sandwich lunches.

Food for thought?

oh that is sooo right. Toby doesn’t usually stop to breathe when he’s eating dinner. He must be waiting for Eddie to put down his fork….unattended food is fair game.
