lucky ducks

Fortune's favored few

Lucky ducks is a playful way to call someone fortunate, often with mock envy or affection: You lucky ducks get to go to Hawaii!

The rhyme gives it a lighthearted, almost childlike tone, making it suitable for casual conversation without sounding bitter or resentful.
