Common experiences you've never had

[ScottA]

I've never seen a single episode of any Doctor Who series.

Me either. That goes for Potter and Twilght like Rich.

I have stuck my feet in all 4 oceans as well as all 4 Great Lakes and the Gulf of Mexico.
I have riden in a police car but never an ambulance or fire truck.
I've never seen the Statue of Liberty, the Grand Canyon or Mount Rushmore in person.

I've never:

fired or owned a gun
hitchhiked a ride
been arrested
travelled outside the USA
been to Disney World in Florida
had a pet Dog, hamster or bird, (only ever had cats)
had my tonsils out or appendix removed
eaten at Denny's or Jack-In-The-Box
got drunk more than 1 time
been on an airplane more than 1 time
watched Cassablanca or Gone With The Wind
been to a baseball, football, hockey or basketball game
I've never taken illegal drugs, no, wait! I forgot about that time in 1989.

Me neither...The experience of seeing Dr. Who Fans dressed as Baker's Dr. Who during the Creation Conventions here in New York soured me completely on the series. The Dr. Who wannabe's were just annoying. You just wanted to step on their scarf's as they walked by you...

I have a convention photo of the super-tall guy who used to walk around the Creation Con's dressed as Doctor #5 and always say, "Hullo, I'm the Doctor!" I washed my hands in the Mens room, looked up and there he was and sure enough, "Hullo, I'm the Doctor!" That damn guy was everywhere; in the upper left!

[UnderdogDJLSW]

I have never been stung by a bee, yet.

I also have never learned to tread water. I can get in it, but sink if it is over my head.

[WannabeMego]

The Dr. Who wannabe's were just annoying. You just wanted to step on their scarf's as they walked by you...oh wait, my bro used to do that

Yes...I used to do that and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

Annoying little b*st*rds...They were all over the place and getting in the way!!!

Something had to be done

I've calmed down...but only recently.

[Adam West]

I feel like I grew up sheltered but now that I'm hearing everyone else's I never....I don't really feel sheltered at all.

I also have never shot a real gun. I have also shot BB's and a Compound bow but no gun
Never been hunting
Never attended Comic-Con or Mego Meet
Never had a theme room....this has always been my own choice.
Never even been close to being arrested
Never felt poor (I grew up with very little money but never felt like I was missing out on something)
Never have had a single tooth removed (including Wisdom teeth which I hear is pretty unusual)
Never taken a cruise or desire to
Never have eaten a meal at Taco Bell...sounds strange...I love Mexican Food but everything looks disgusting to me at that chain.

[Mikey]

I've never been on a Ferris Wheel (scared to death of them)

[Adam West]

Will also add...
Never played Texas Hold 'Em or Poker for real money
Never have golfed
Never watched a NASCAR or golf race/match in real life or on tv
Never bought a lottery ticket
Never have attended or invited to a non-Christian wedding
Never played Futsal (most people have not heard of it much less played it but is a form of indoor soccer that is starting to become very popular in the U.S.)
Never taken a cruise
Never have rented an apartment or house (and that includes vacations)
Never have seen an espisode of 24 (although it is popular and probably a show I would like)

[Adam West]

I also have never attended a professional Basketball game. I was thinking through the most popular sports and have at least attended one if not more of the major sports but have never been to an NBA game (I have been to a college basketball game but no NBA)
I also have never played a single video game on Xbox or PS3. I have played games on Nintendo Wii but none of the games that most people are familar with...I'm just happy sticking to pinball.

[Hector]

I've never been on a Ferris Wheel (scared to death of them)

I did...and it was one of the most horrible experiences of my life...lol.

I think the ride was like ten minutes or so...but it felt like a decade...



For some reason...I'm not scared of roller coasters...but Ferris wheel...no thank you...

[jimsmegos]

Also... I'm never been to Spain, BUT I have been to Oklahoma.

[Mr.Krusher]

^ I heard that the ladies are insane there, and that they sure know how to use it, though I cannot personally verify this.

[wayne foundation 07]

I've melted smelted burnt and blew stuff up , all in the name of Science in school

1) I've never been in a science fair. Heck, I've never done a science project. I've taken science, and done experiments in class, but that's it.


I too never had a tree house

2) I've never lived in a HOUSE as a kid. So I've never had a treehouse, or swingset or a backyard. (I live in a house now, but it's just not the same).


A couple times bothered the neighbors to buy magazines for school

3)I've never done fundraisers for school. I did one once for my dad's girlfriend's school. I sold chocolate bars.


was in 2 Christmas plays in school

4) I've never been in a school play.


sports are sometimes overrated

5) I've never played or tried out for any sports related activity.


Always lived for a snowday,played harder and longer on them

6) I've never gone outside on a snow day. According to my mom, if it was too cold and dangerous to go to school...well you know the rest.


me too,but loved my bike

7) I've never owned a Big Wheel, Green Machine, Krazy Kar, or any other plastic ride-on toy.



Kindergarden for us back then was just a half day in the afternoon

8) I never went to kindergarten in public school. Kindergarten was in the same place, just a different classroom as my nursery school.



Had star wars sheets and curtains

9) I never had themed bedroom (til now)


That's really all I can think of, but you get the idea. What are some common experiences you've never had?
