Fairly Normal Things You've Never Done?

[JaniceM]

I've never sat at a firepit and toasted s'mores......isn't that unusual?

Me either. Never had any interest in going camping or any other outdoorsy types of things.

 

[JaniceM]

..and you live relatively close to it as well.... that's like me .live 20 miles from Buckingham Palace never visited... just no interest

I've heard- and it does seem accurate- that people who live near 'tourist attractions' generally don't visit them.

 

[Pepper]

I've never had fish for pets, visited the statue of liberty, or gone on a cruise.

I've lived in NYC most of my life and I've never been to the Statue of Liberty or the top of the Empire State Building and I even worked there on the fourth floor. I was at the top floors of WTC.

well it's true for me.. ..I've been to more Tourist attractions in foreign countries than I have in my own country

 

[hollydolly]

I've never slept in a tent.. hate the idea of it, would never do it...

I did. Never again.

 

[hollydolly]

I've never had a pedicure... altho' I have regular manicures, I would hate the idea of someone else doing my toes..

 

[hollydolly]

I've never driven a tractor.. living in farming country that's quite unusual

[SeniorBen]

I've never watched a reality TV show and never will.

 

[StarSong]

I've done most of the things listed above but have never snow skied, surfed or skate boarded.
Also never learned how to drive a motorcycle, which I regret.

 

[JaniceM]

I've never had S'mores. Unless you count the Pop-Tarts version.

 

[hollydolly]

I've never had s'mores either..I see what they are, just don't fancy them

Never skateboarded either.. altho' I did learn to ride a Motorbike and had 2 of my own

never skied or surfed.. but I have para-sailed.. many times

 

[StarSong]

Oddly enough, I like all the ingredients: chocolate, marshmallows and graham crackers, but don't care for s'mores.

 

[Manatee]

I was outside Buckingham Palace, but they didn't invite me inside.
Went to the statue of liberty 2 times, once as a kid and again as an adult.
Been on about 8 cruises. It was better than living on ship in the Navy
Tent camping taught us that it is better in a trailer.
My one experience with riding a horse taught me that motorized is better.

 

[MarkinPhx]

I can't think of anything that pops in my head but I do know that famed sports caster Al Michaels has stated that he has never eaten a vegetable. I find that odd but also remarkable.

 

[chic]

I never downhill snow skiied or waterskiied though my friends and family all did. I never dyed my hair any weird color. I never owned a dog. Cats, yes, dogs, no, and they are so sweet. I never started a fight though I always showed up for one when if challenged. I never did NOT kiss on a first date.

 

[Sunny]

Never learned to ride a bike properly.

I've had s'mores more times than I can count (my family loves campfires) but never understood what was so wonderful about them. (The s'mores, not the campfires).

 

[Gaer]

I've never had a facial, a massage, a pedicure, a manicure.
I've never used a dishwasher. a trash compactor.
or an electric can opener.
Never taken drugs, never smoked.
Many high-tech things I've never used.
haha! Guess I'm telling you how "out of it" I am!

 

[LadyEmeraude]

I have never been out of the USA, except to Canada.

I have never ridden in a Helicopter.

I have never stood on my head and sang Yankee Doodle lol

I have never eaten live worms.

I have never eaten raw Sushi.

more later...

oops fairly normal things:

I've never went water skiing.

I've never drank most alcohols, just a few.

I've never done Judo.

I've never rode a motorcycle.

 

[HoneyNut]

Never married, never gave birth, no manicures/pedicures, no skiing (neither snow nor water), never parachuted out of a plane. Never gone out dancing (not counting school dances or the hora at a celebration in my youth), have not been to NYC (except at the airport for connecting flights), haven't been to the pacific northwest states (or a bunch of other states I suppose), never been to Hawaii or any pacific ocean area (i.e., not Australia, New Zealand, Japan, etc).

On the 'done that' side - I have played with snakes, petted chickens and driven a small tractor.

 

[Lawrence]

I have never been the boss of someone else, I have never had a fancy car or truck, I have never had a fancy house, I have never known anyone who is rich and famous, I have never had any personal dealings with a politician, I never went to college, I have never done lots of things that fairly normal people do.

 

[feywon]

Clear from the answers there is no 'one definition fits all' definition of normal.

 

[Judycat]

Never liked the Beatles or bought one of their albums. I've kept this hidden all my life so far because it is sacrilege to admit I like music just not theirs.

don't worry, I never bought any Beatles records either.. my ex husband had the white album.. but I never liked the Beatles music..problem was they were my mums age when I was young.. so to me it was not modern ..and the same with Elvis whom some of my young aunties liked it's only now I appreciate SOME of their music...

While we're on the subject of Elvis I own one of his records ( In the ghetto, it was given to me).. but I have never bought any of his records.. I cannot stand his voice tbh..
