Here is a child in need of a red bucket.

I fucking hate red buckets. You bastard!

I see your red bucket and raise you

Here is a guy with a bucket on his head.

This is quite obviously the most subtle piece of spam ever. He creates an account, gets a few hundy posts, then springs his trap. He posts of photo of a red bucket, knowing full well that this will trigger an almost pavlovian response in at least 2/3rds of the forum readers to compulsively seek out a red bucket for immediate purchase. Now comes the really diabolical part: he doesn't post a link to his website selling red buckets for he knows in his heart of hearts that the techno-savvy uber-nerds (his target demographic) of this, and several other forums will instantly seek out where to buy the beautiful red bucket utilizing the good old internet search engine google. This will drive searches for red buckets to the #1 search item of all time, which will consequently drive his website to the number one trafficked site in the world, bypassing such buzzworthy favorites as youtube and all others by a clear margin. He then sells his domain name for eleventy brazillion dollars, buys an army three times larger than that of China and takes over the world, creating a one-world government which, any conspiracy theorist can tell you, hastens the apocalypse and the end of days. Nice try mister anti-christ, but I ain't having nothin' to do with no red buckets.

Little known facts:The red bucket is traditionally good luck in Chinese culture.In modern times China has stopped deploying boats to foreign countries as they are too easy to detect.The green bucket is the transportation of choice now.

It's meant to be an ironic metaphor for man's inhumanity to man, with cross-cultural sociological implications regarding Freud's concept of 'ego' and the associated metaphysical search for meaning as a refutation of scientific certainty. Duh!
