I've never:
  • Drank alcohol
  • Smoked anything
  • Eaten Beef
  • Eaten Lamb
  • Eaten Sushi
  • Been outside of the British Isles
  • Played League of Legends

All of these have gotten odd reactions from people at various times, but aside from eventually travelling a bit I'm not inclined to change any of them.

Well, you are allowed to do what you want in life, but i think you have been wasting yours.

I've never shaved with shaving cream. An electric razor has always been sufficient, as I have pathetic facial hair growing abilities.

This thread is tearing me apart. I used to work with a guy that never had an avocado in his life and I thought that was crazy.

I guess I'll add that I've never had a jackfruit and I've never played a moba.
 
I've never

Slaughtered my own meat
Seen a rafflesia in person
Been anywhere in asia, africa, australia, or antarctica
Soaked in a natural hot spring
Ridden in a helicopter or hot air balloon
Properly tuned a string instrument
Beat Super Mario Bros
 
I've never smoked (well, except fucking passive smoking) nor done any drugs, but neither of them are very common here anyway.

Can't think of anything else really. Some people are listing plenty of things that really aren't very common.

Like this. Has anyone ever said to you "I can't believe you've never soaked in a natural hot spring" or I can't believe you've never ridden in a helicopter". Of course, I don't really mean literally, but I don't think anyone would be surprised about those at all.
Not to pick on you though, just saying.

This too. I have tried once with cream but halfway through I could tell it was going to end badly and stopped lol.

Oh and I never beat an NES Mario game. It's my great shame as a gamer.

I'll try to make this a little more interesting.

  • Never seen Star Trek--movies or episodes
  • Never whistled or tried to learn how
  • Never took a piss standing up
  • Never shaved/trimmed my pubic hair
  • Never got in a fight/punched anyone/got punched by anyone

Two are lies.

If you are a guy, that must be a lie
 
I was a vegetable hating kid, like all kids are. As an adult I eat veggies now but don't love most of them, and I also can't recognize or spell a lot of them. I started grilling zucchini lately and wasn't sure if I ever had zucchini before; once I tasted it I recognized that I had. It's OK but I'll eat it cuz veggies are good for you. There are still some I still won't eat and some I haven't ever tried, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, beets to name a few.

I've been to McDonald's a lot over the years, but now that you mention it, I have never had a Big Mac. I prefer the Quarter Pounder with Cheese.

I've also never had a Big Mac and I know lots of people who haven't. I go to McDonald's regularly, too. Pry 2-3 times per month. I also worked at McDonald's in high school and college for about 5 years.

Is it really so hard to believe?

I would say it is incredibly hard to believe, yes. Who would prefer to sit down on a public toilet over standing up, given the option? I mean, unless this person has never gone to a concert, bar, wedding, orgy, party, camping, tubing, hunting, a mall, a sports event, road tripping, work, or any other place in public.
 
They've always just looked kind of gross I guess. I don't know! I have no logical reason for it except that I've always thought I wouldn't like it so I've never tried one.

I've never eaten one either. Smells terrible to me. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

I'm 26 and have never smoked a cig, weed, or other drug or ever been drunk. It's never being drunk that really shocks people. I don't enjoy alcohol and any time I drink it, I get tired trying to look past the taste before I even feel anything more than a very slight buzz.

Drink alcohol, maybe a sip here and there just to refresh my memory on how awful it is. It's annoying there is a social stigma for people who don't partake and it's fucking annoying. Should found a non-alcohol group on meetup or something.

Driven a car.

I've got a cortical visual impairment from a bad car accident (heh) when I was 13. It's screwed up the way my depth perception works with motion tracking, so I see fast moving objects moving laterally and have a very hard time judging their positions. When I'm in pedestrian mode I can compensate for this just by knowing what size things are relative to my position, but in a car when I'm moving as well it's just unsafe for me to be on the roads.

Anytime I tell people about it, even explaining the condition, they always say, "But... you don't drive???" It's a pretty crappy stigma to carry through life in such a vehicle-centric country as America.

I can totally understand where you're coming from with this. My husband doesn't drive and whenever I cite reasons for picking him up and driving him to work, I get weird looks and comments ALL the fucking time. Its annoying, but his wasn't a health issue, it was a local issue. He grew up in a city like San Fran that is too damn expensive to own a car and you just basically walk everywhere. We got married elsewhere and we just found it convenient to just keep my car and my insurance because I'm cheaper than a guy's insurance obviously.

This is me. I've not smoked anything ever despite of being surrounded by it all my childhood (family smokes, friends blunt) and I've tried a few beers but their heavy carbs was enough to turn me off. Wine just gives me a headache. :\

some of you should question your hippie parents, I understand no liking an extremely common fruit or meat, but never having tried it sounds like child abuse to me.
