Title: Common Things You've Never Done
Post by: Ash on April 17, 2016, 04:19:20 PM
For example, I've never rode in a convertible car.  Never even sat in one.  You'd think that after almost 42 years on this planet I would've, but nope.

Can you think of a common activity that you've never tried?

Never rode on a jet ski, or an ATV. 

It's not that I wouldn't, it's just I've never had the opportunity.

I've never been drunk, not even tipsy. I can't stand the taste of alcohol, even in miniscule quantities, so I have never had more than a sip. I've never been deer hunting, which is unusual since I live in a state (Texas) that used to close down schools in some districts on the opening day of deer season. I have brothers that lived to hunt, but I have never gone. I've never ridden on a train. I would like to, but I haven't yet.

Yeah I've never rode in a convertible either.  In fact last year during the Great Sprite75 Road Trip of 2015 (tm) I was looking to rent a convertible to drive back home but it was way too expensive.  I have a friend who has a VW covertible, I've been giving my car salesman friend a hard time telling him Chevy needs to make a convertible Volt.

At the risk of sounding like a drama queen, I've never had a birthday party.

I've had individuals bake me a cake and, once, a giant cookie. I've had individuals buy me gifts. I've even had individuals take me to dinner for my birthday. But I've never had a traditional birthday party with a gathering of friends and assorted folks, with all or even a few bearing gifts and a group singing "Happy Birthday".

Damn television for warping my expectations!

Since this thread has enjoyed a revival of late I been thinking hard about this topic the last couple days and have come up with....

As far as I know I've never snored. I've asked. Shrug.

In school I never got an F on anything.

I've never been to a chiropractor.

I've never stared at the sun. (And until recently figured nobody did that but after a conversation the other day it seems like a lot of people have done that to see what'd happen... People are weird.)

I never made fun of Rebecca Black, the girl in that Friday video.

I've never done my own taxes.

I've never been in PTA/PTO, Girl Scouts, joined a church, registered with a political party, or signed up to play on a sports team (which is strange because I minored in PE).

I've never liked shaking someone's hand. (Does that fall in with this topic? Maybe not.)

I've never lost a third-set tiebreaker in tennis where I served first. (The statistics of the game are if you serve first in a tiebreaker you're more likely to lose.)

I've never broken a bone.

I've never been medicated during childbirth. (Hey, it's just agonizing, bone-crunching pain, right?)

I've never lied in my diary.

I've never burned a Christmas tree.

I've never eaten Chap Stick.

I've never fallen for my husband and son's recent "pull my finger" conspiracy.

I've never put a pet to sleep.

I've never had a crush on a celebrity.

And even though it's been correctly arrived at in an unconfirmed guess, I've never told anyone the exact number of people I've had sex with.

I think somethings are best kept to yourself...  :smile:



I never smoked cigarettes or pot. I had a grandmother that was addicted to cigarettes and she would write a note for me to take to the gas-station and I would buy her a pack. I was 11/12 years old. We had to look for loose change under the cushions and I remember dismantling a buffalo nickle bracelet for her cigarette habit. And since I never tried to smoke cigarettes, I decided not to smoke pot.

I've never been stung by a bee.  I have been stung by a wasp, but just once and I am terrified of getting stung again because that's supposed to be the time you find out if you're deathly allergic to a sting... or maybe that's a myth?

I've never been to Disneyland

Lied to my children about Santa. They seem to get it anyway. Symbol, nice tradition, not real, just a fun idea. Children are savvier than people think.

Honestly I think the idea of a strange, funnily-dressed old man coming into our house in the middle of the night would stress my oldest out anyway. She's got a lot of sense. Heck, when she was real little she got mad because in a picture book Santa was apparently snapping a whip at his reindeer and said, "He shouldn't hit those!!!"

She's cool....

I keep wanting to post on this thread, but I can't seem to think of anything common. Then again, what is common these days?

Maybe for this forum and our favorite kinds of films, I could say:

I've never cut someone up with a chainsaw.
I've never held my face directly over an alien egg to see what was inside.
I've never wanted to wander off alone in a spooky house with a serial killer on the loose.
I've never walked into a biker bar and shouted, "What kind of p***y rides a Harley?"

Closer to the actual theme of this thread:

I've never started a fist fight.
I've never lit one of my farts.
I've never said I wasn't gross.

I've never had an earring.
