So far I've seen only pretty believable answers here so I'll add my own: I've never been drunk enough to pass out, vomit, forget things or fall.
Or you just don't remember?
I've never been drunk at all. Never really had more than one or two drinks in one day.
You're not missing anything.
wink
Same here except for the vomiting part.
Same here! I do get drunk on occasion but never out of control
I've never broken a bone but I think I've had about 60 stitches in total
Never broke a bone club!
Same, except I've counted my stitches: 102
I've fractured plenty but never had a complete break. Fractures still suck though.
The only bone I've ever broken was my sternum. I couldn't do sports for several weeks but had no cast or anything to show off. I could only sit there and let my body do the healing.
Well I have a college degree, so people find it funny I never technically graduated high school. Did enough classes to qualify for graduation then ran away halfway through the year and never looked back. I was already enrolled at the college in an arts program so they didn't ask for the certificate. It didn't matter until I tried to get a job in a bureaucracy in my 40s and they wanted evidence of high school diploma. Which I didn't have.
God I hated high school.
I got tossed sophomore year, and got my GED later.
I graduated with a B.S. in engineering a few years ago.
I know them feels
My coworkers are always surprised when they first learn that I didn't even finish high school. I work with people who are mostly highly educated. Most with masters degrees, a few with bachelor's and doctorates. While they were studying, I was geeking out over some project that I did just for fun. Turns out that the skills I ended up with were exactly what my career for the past 15 years needs.
Nice! I kind of know how you feel. I've studied to be a machinist, now I'm an enterprise architect.
Never smoked a cigarette. Not even took a single drag. I'm not even sure I ever touched one.
Me neither. I didn't know something like this would be so hard to believe
I've done just about every drug out there. Had a pretty significant meth problem in my late teens and early 20's. Never smoked a cigarette.
Just always seemed too gross to be worth it.
I've never been to a concert, that seems to be one that people find bizarre
Just sad. My stepsons had never been to a concert and my kids thought that was crazy because I had brought them to shows since they were babies. Like, I can remember my first show but they can't. They all love music now.
Do you live in or near a big metropolitan area? If so you can probably fulfill this one within the month depending on how broad your musical tastes are. Some shows are prohibitively expensive, but a lot of smaller ones are remarkably affordable.
Edit: I myself enjoy a decently broad range of music. One of my favorite types of concerts, though, is when the local symphony puts on a movie and they play the soundtrack. These are really fun because you get to go to a symphony concert but if you get bored you can watch a movie!
In my mid-40s and never have gotten a cavity.
I'm 38, I've had a few cavities, but somehow never a proper cavity search.
You should ask your TSA agent the next time youre at an american airport
38 here, same. The only dental work I've had done was orthodontics.
Likewise. I had braces twice, a bunch of baby teeth, all wisdom teeth and 2 permanent teeth pulled because my "mouth was too small". I have some fucked up dreams but the scariest ones are those where my teeth are loose or falling out. I think I have dental PTSD...
Never have I ever intentionally shoplifted anything from a store.
I've never had a fever.
I can't decide if that's good or bad.
Bad. If you've never had a fever, check for AIDS, and not the peanut butter kind.
I dunno either! I rarely get sick though so shrug
Yes you have.
Bullshit. You would never have survived infancy.
Does your name happen to be David?
Never had sex with anyone but my wife. Met her at 17. Now approaching 40.
That's hard to imagine.
Never learned to ride a bicycle.
Heyo, me too! I tried as a kid and busted my knee when I fell off, and gave it up.
I’ve been afraid of falling since I was very very young, so that’s what led me to never want to ride :)
I’ve never eaten a Twinkie
you're not missing much. They're fine I guess.
I’ve never eaten a Pop Tart
Okay, most Pop Tarts are like, I dunno, take ‘em or leave ‘em.
But they have this new Banana Bread kind, and if you ever want to have your first Pop Tart (and you like banana bread) you could do far worse.
I don't believe you.
I've never even seen one in real life.
Granted they're probably made of something that's regulated here so...
Yeah, knew it;
The EU requires warning labels on artificial dyes. And countries like Austria, Finland and Norway don't even take the chance of putting Twinkies on their shelves. Read about Yellow 5 dye and the horrible health effects here.
(such a spammy site no point linking the source I sure that can be checked somewhere else)
I've never watched a football/soccer match. Sure I've seen some guys running on a field in the news, or sat in a bar with some screen in the background. But I have never watched a match in person either and have no interest in doing so.
I'm an American and I've never had a burger or mac & cheese. Isn't autism so fun? Yipee!
This was legitimately in my meme folder
hook it up with some memes at [email protected]
How does autism affect whether you’ve had mac & cheese or a burger?
(This question is not meant to be accusatory at all, purely curious.)
I've never eaten lobster. I'm not the slightest bit tempted to eat your bug meat that's only palatable when slathered in butter.
Honestly it’s relatively flavourless. Have Crayfish in NZ instead. Smaller animal, far more flavour.
Well shit... I've done so much, I'm having trouble thinking of things I haven't that most people would have done.
I'm still a virgin.
I've never had sex with a virgin.
Ok
I believe it
Ok
OK
The first wedding I ever attended was my own...and I was 35. I somehow had friends & family who didn't get or were already married my entire life.
Still never been to a birth or a funeral.
Yes ! ... So, what about you ?
I started this thread thinking I'd have the bravery to answer my own question. I've got a few heavy hitters. But I hesitate because, altogether, they would probably make me uniquely identifiable.
Believe it or not they’ve never stolen anyone’s lunch money…
That's ccunning, ccunning. Just saw their name
Never went to public or private school until university.
- graduated high school and college without ever taking a dedicated biology or chemistry class.
- never broken a bone.
- never stung by a (live) bee (have stepped on a dead one, though).
- can't say "never" any more, but I was into my 40s before ever having my blood drawn.
- have smelled, but have never even seen marijuana, let alone smoked any.
I've never been stung by a bee either! I've had a wasp get me a few times but bees and I have a unspoken truce, I guess. We have carpender bees all around our house and my wife hates them but I enjoy watching them have those valiant mid-air dog fights. Those little bastards can scrap. They never bother or dive bomb me but sometimes they get curious and kinda hover around me, presumably doing a bee's version of a vibe check. I dont run or swat at them and they just peace out after maybe 15-20 seconds and then ignore me next time Im outside in "their" territory. ... My wife on the other hand, swats, screams and runs from them and they'll straight up go after her. She clearly does not pass the vibe check. It's wild.
but I was into my 40s before ever having my blood drawn.
What? You never went to hospital?
Nope.
First blood draw was just shy of 43yo, and that was for a new life insurance policy, so it was a contract nurse in my own living room.
I have become more familiar with the hospital recently, however.
How did you make it to your 40s without ever having bloodwork done?
Do you mean other people wouldn't believe we've never done it or that they wouldn't believe us if we said we did due to being so associated with never having done it?
The former
People often don't believe I never went to vocal therapy or anything. Some people are skeptical of my NZ accent since I'm not anywhere where it's common and ask if it's artificial. If anything, it actually used to sound more Maori-ish, but certain neurological symptoms when I was little caused it to Kiwify. People think I'm just attention-seeking by having an accent I never asked for.
alls Ill say is : I could turn you inside-out, with what I choose, not to do. Seriously though im way nerdy and introvert type but im in my 50's so like eventually you do things. Never smoked though or taken a non prescription drug unless you include alcohol. Oh kratem but did not really have any effect.
I've never had a headache which wasn't the direct result of hitting my head or a hangover.
I am half convinced people's "random" headaches are all fake and humanity has just kind of silently agreed that "the headache" will be a socially acceptable way to back out of minorly annoying but otherwise low stakes obligations.
Edit - does this mean I win the thread?
I never had one until I was 17 and woke up with a crushing migraine, puking and crying. Those continued (not frequent but crazy intense) until I got pregnant, a pause each time I was. Menopause didn't stop them (so disappointing) but menopause plus low dose hormones has pretty much done the trick.
But I've never had a "regular" headache, like a tension headache. Only migraine, hangover, sinus.
What I wanted to say though is that you are so lucky if your head never hurts, like hurts so infrequently that you think people are faking it. It's a terrible place to hurt.
