Pass the buck

To pawn something off on someone else when you are unwilling or incapable of doing it yourself.

John was getting serious shit from his boss at day's end, because he got fuck all accomplished. But rather than admit to his blatant shittiness and incompetence, he instead chose to pass the buck, and complained that his subordinates were a bunch of useless, overpaid, air-thieves who fail at every given opportunity.

pass the buck

A transfer of a problem from person to person.

Rather than taking a trip to the post office, the stamp-lacking asian asked her friend to drive over to her house and bring her stamps. She passed the buck to him.

Pass the buck

When, during intercourse, the partners exchange food through each other's mouths one or more times.

Last night we decided to pass the buck with strawberries dipped in chocolate. After we chewed a little, it was just mush. She has such a food fetish.

pass the bucket

you say ‘pass the bucket’ when you want to be sick, vomit, throw up etc. and it’s usually used when you see something disgusting or overly sentimental not when you actually want to be sick because generally you wouldn’t ask for the bucket, you’d just run out to the loo.

That nightclub was wild; they had an 82-year-old stripper, and Miley Cyrus and Big Bird were in the front row- playing pass the bucket, of course. (Btw, that really happened, according to the Sun)

passthebuckitis

The disease associated with "passing the buck" which, in the workplace, is normally associated with passing off a task or responsibility to someone else, either in your own working department or in another department altogether.

Passthebuckitis is extremely contagious, especially if a deadline has passed or if the task involves something that you aren't familiar with doing.

After forgetting to prepare a presentation for the upcoming meeting, Melissa told the organizer that it was actually Jessica who was responsible for presenting, thus, 'passing the buck'. Jessica, then fearing for her job and reputation, told the meeting organizer that she had thought it was Mark who was to prepare the presentation.

Melissa has done this on several occasions and suffers from passthebuckitis. Jessica caught passthebuckitis when trying to defer responsibility to another coworker.
