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.

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

Or you just don't remember?

[-] ExtraMedicated@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

I've never been drunk at all. Never really had more than one or two drinks in one day.

[-] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

Same. I get a little warm and I don't like it, so I stop. Why in the world would I have MORE?

[-] f4f4f4f4f4f4f4f4@sopuli.xyz 7 points 2 months ago

Don't you want to be able to see the 50 or 60Hz flicker of the lights?

I've never broken a bone but I think I've had about 60 stitches in total

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

Never broke a bone club!

[-] Skua@kbin.earth 6 points 2 months ago

I've broken several. Cannot recommend it, in fact it is quite unpleasant.

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.

[-] BodePlotHole@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

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

[-] neidu2@feddit.nl 29 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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.

Never smoked a cigarette. Not even took a single drag. I'm not even sure I ever touched one.

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 8 points 2 months ago

Me neither. I didn't know something like this would be so hard to believe

[-] BodePlotHole@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago

I've never been to a concert, that seems to be one that people find bizarre

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

I love music but I've just never been, if someone invited me sure I'd go, but other than that not sure why I would want to. At this point I'm probably getting too old for that crowd anyway

In my mid-40s and never have gotten a cavity.

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I'm 38, I've had a few cavities, but somehow never a proper cavity search.

I can't decide if that's good or bad.

[-] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 13 points 2 months ago

Bad. If you've never had a fever, check for AIDS, and not the peanut butter kind.

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!

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.

Well shit... I've done so much, I'm having trouble thinking of things I haven't that most people would have done.

[-] A_A@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

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.
