What does 'bucked' mean in this context?
- mock-possum 1y agoLike a ‘bucking bronco,’ a horse kicking high and trying to throw off its rider - you ‘buck’ something to get it off of you, to get it off your back, to shake it off, to get out from under it. You might also see it in ‘bucking a trend.’ So it means “to act against” / “to escape from” the rules.
