Avoiding the obvious (beastiality, sex with furniture, drinking bleach, getting beaten unmercifully, etc) what stuff have you tried/never have tried and have no problem never trying them or never trying them again. There's a few for me:
1.) Concerts - I'm just done with them. If I never saw another live concert for the rest of my life I would probably be fine. I don't like the idea of paying over $50 to see millionaires, the loudness and the drunken/stoned idiots around me.
2.) Roller Coasters – I'm done with them too. I've been many roller coasters and actually lived near a Six Flags. So I've done my share of riding on them. I dunno, the thrill of them is gone for me.
3.) Fine Dining – Did it once or twice and can't find anything about it that blows me away flavor wise. That and I'd rather not dress up to eat. Give me a sloppy cheeseburger any day.
Theres more for me but I can't recall them now. Your turn...
1) Skydiving - Why would anyone jump out of a perfectly good plane?
2) Bungee Jumping - Too many stories about people not getting tied off properly or the cord being too long.
3) Masturbating
4) Surfing - I spent 8 days in Hawaii and didn't try surfing, so I probably never will. Seems like it might be fun, though.

Yeah but The GREEN LANTERN coaster will make its debut this spring! It's a stand up coaster and it's FAST.
Plus rumor has it, I've heard it has the largest loop in the world as well... I can't wait.

Already done a standup coaster.
1) Drink
2) Smoke
3) Hunt
4) Get into a fight
5) Commit a crime
6) Skydive
7) Hire a hooker
8) Go to a strip club
1. Never been to a strip club, and most likely never will.
2. Never cheated on my wife, not about to start. She'd hurt me.
3. Never voted Democrat in a Presidential race.
4. Never flown an airplane (would love to learn)
5. Never had a tapeworm.
"And I've never been to Boston in the fall!"
I'm confused if this is stuff we HAVE done and won't do again, or stuff we haven't done but probably still won't do.
If it's the former:
* Join the military. Did it, don't regret it a bit, but now I'm too old for that s**t.
* Eat Limberger cheese. Tried it once, and it actually tastes WORSE than it smells. Turned me off to all cheese for about a month.
* Get married. I got married once and it was a very bad choice that I take full responsibility for. Got married to my current wife and that was a good choice. Even so, I will definately NEVER get married again. Same reason as the military, just too old for that s**t.
* Vote for a Democrat or Republican for ANY office, unless it's Ron Paul, and if he runs third-part, even better.
If it's the latter:
* Skydiving. I actually would like to do that. But having kids makes me want to reduce risk.
* Be a rockstar. I tried. It didn't work out. Now I'm too old for that s**t.

Yep right there with you on that one. I'm married now but if something forbid happened to my wife there is NO way in hell I'd do that again.
This is hard, because I don't like to say I'm not going to do something. Things change, plus sometimes when an opportunity comes up to do something that you've never done before you decide that you would actually like to try it. Perhaps the only one that jumps to mind is that I've never served in the Army, Air Force, Navy, or Coast Guard and never will.

Oh, I have! I was based at NAS South Weymouth between 1993 and 1996.
However, I have never been a pirate.

TOTALLY agree with these two. I recently decided that I'm pretty sure I'm done with concerts. I hated to accept that it's because I'm getting older, and I still love a lot of bands that are still relevant and touring today, but like you said - they're just too loud and expensive, and you have to deal with idiots. It's been a little while since I've been to a concert where I didn't wish that I was just at home listening to the music. Having said that, live music can be incredibly powerful, but just not worth it for me...
Rollercoasters - I gave up on these a long time ago...
I've also never (and never will) smoked.
Oh right. Get married and have kids is on my list.
I'll never skydive. Jumping out of an airplane is unnatural. Birds can have all the sky they want I'm plenty happy on the ground.
hi
Laugh whilst my wife gives birth,did it the first time learnt a very painful lesson;
Show off whilst riding a motorbike,did that once and again learnt a very painful lesson;
Go to university,enjoyed my four year term but never again;

Deliberately p#ss people off for kicks
Buy porn

Get in fights
Lapse into alcoholism
Develop a gambling problem
Rely on others for everything
Get grossly overweight

Wow. In order...

3.I hav'nt gone hunting since-oh-1985. I like shooting guns-just not animals.
4.Got inna fight with the wife beating neighbor a while back. Sometimes you gotta make a stand.
5. Never stole. Got arrested for various acts of public intoxication. Aint been in jail since last May,though! :thumbup:
6.THAT one scares me!!!!
7.Hmmm...no comment.
8.Back in the 80's I went to several-which led to #7.
Don't get me wrong-I aint proud of-aww-BS. Yes I am. BUT I don't recommend it to any one else.Living such as this brings a lot of heartache to yourself and those you love. I did alot of stupid s**t in my life...but if anything-it was never boring.
Things I
wont ever do....
.Join a Neo Nazi group.This may seem a given-but I've been approached a number of times..
.Shoot heroin.
.Smoke meth or crack. I tried meth once-YIKES!
.Cheat on the one I'm with. I have NEVER cheated on a woman. NEVER.
.Lie. I don't lie. EVER. I never even lied as a kid. I may say nothing-but I won't tell a blatant lie. I'd rather get in trouble.
.Not say I wont ever do anything-cuz s**t happens. Whoops! See? I just f**ked that one up!
1. Smoke a cigarette
2. Take illegal drugs
3. Have sex with a woman
4. Any kind of extreme sport
5. Kill a human being
6. Buy a house
7. Have another baby
8. Get married again
9. Go back to eating animal products
10. Get a cat (I'd love to get one but the landlord would evict me)
I'll post more if I think of them
Go strictly vegetarian, meat tastes too good to me to do so.
Have or raise another kid, I've had more than enough in a lifetime.
Learn anything more than the basics of cars.
I smoked cigarettes about 3 years ago, I started late (30's) and quit really fast, it's bad for ya.
I won't ever smoke again... unless I'm in a Bugs Bunny cartoon and have a blindfold on, tied to a post.
Some of these are rather obvious for me:
I'll never
1) drink alcohol
2) smoke tobacco
3) take illegal recreational drugs
4) abuse medication
5) cheat on my girlfriend/spouse/significant other
Also I'd never:
6) kill anyone intentionally
7) abuse or intentionally hurt another person or animal
8) judge a person based solely on their appearance
9) ride a roller coaster (not with my vertigo)
Sure there's more but that's all I can think of for now.
Drink (excessively of course and until I'm 21 :wink:)
Do drugs
be in a police chase
Smite anyone for being the opposite of where I stand (Yer lucky Indiana :wink:)
Hold a knife to my wrists
get absurdly outrageously painful and ugly tattoos
I probably won't get a piercing.
I probably won't start lying.
I probably won't change the world.

Hitchhike
When I was 16, in 1979,I hitched from Michigan to New York. On of the most exciting adventures of my life. Contrary to popular belief-the open road is not littered with serial killers. I hit the highway from Matawan,Michigan by a black guy and his girlfreind-who smoked a joint with me-got dropped of in Detroit. A preacher gave me a ride-and $10 bucks!-to Youngston,Ohio -I slept under an overpass bridge-from there an old drunk-who thought my best bet would to join the carny circuit-into Pennsylvania. Some guy gave me a ride and bought me some KFC. I walked into the mountains a bit-2 hippies gave me a ride they had a keg of beer in their van -dropped me off at an exit-a guy driving a chicken truck (stunk like hell!) got me to Liberty NY-where Ma was. It took me 3 days. OH-I left with $10 in my shoe-I got to NY with that $10-which I gave to Ma-she was working as a waitress at Grossingers Hotel.
Life has a way of making you choose drastic choices at times. I was sick of my dad beating my ass-so I left.
I don't regret the choices I made in life. I did what I had to do. I made a lot-a LOT-of bad choices-but I met a lot of interesting people-I had a lot of interesting experiances. My only regret is that I didnt get a better education....I hit the road running with the devil.

3. Have sex with a woman
Pfftt...
Not even Newt ? Seriously ?
Well, that just killed off my sexual fantasies for the night.... :wink:

8) Go to a strip club
I'm the same although I have tried smoking in college (I didn't get addicted and I didn't like it) and tried I different alcoholic drinks, but its really gross to me.
I'm gonna continue off your list:
9) Drugs just don't appeal to me.
10) Watch a whole episode of Desperate Housewives
11) Steal - the same as 5. My bad.
12) Cheat on someone. It just seems like a really crummy thing to do to a person.
13) Become a superhero and fight crime
14) Read the DUNE books. I think there's more than one.
15) Get a tattoo. I just don't like them. Sorry, folks.
I'll never...
10) get a piercing either
11) I don't see myself getting a tattoo
12) become a caffeine addict
13) give up chocolate (as much as I probably should)
14) stop watching bad movies
Ill Never again
1. try super hot sauce because the people at school told me too.
2. Watch an M night Shamylan film
3. Recommend my friends to watch Cannibal Holocaust (I'm a bad friend)
4. Eat Chocolate that has 99 percent coca!
Ill probally never
1. Do any kinda drugs
2. Get bored of watching movies
3. Hire a Hooker
4. Cheat on anyone, I don't think anyone deserves to be cheated on.
5. Kill someone in a non self defense situation
Well. I've never shot myself. I don't intend to.
If I did myself in, maybe I'd just take a load of pills.
I have never done any really hard drugs.
I've never intentionally physically hurt someone for a reason other than self-defence.
