So, list a few random things you've never done in your life.
I've never...
1. Taken a taxi
2. Had sushi
3. Tried dancing
I was thinking more alone the lines of relatively common things, obviously most of us have never climbed Mt. Everest and been to space.
What about you? What random things or places or foods have you never tried?

I too have never tried sushi. My two goals in life are a small plane flight in Alaska and skydiving.

I was able to scratch off a couple of things recently. I gambled for the first time in a casino in March, and fired a gun about a week ago.
I've never been outside of North America, unless you count the Carribean.
I've never really been to a concert, meaning a current, recognized band/singer that you had to pay for. I have been to performances though.

Most ethnic foods - I don't care for spicy or odd combinations.
Never been on a cruise ship.
Never tried skiing.

Tried dancing I was thinking more alone the lines of relatively common things, obviously most of us have never climbed Mt. Everest and been to space. What about you? What random things or places or foods have you never tried? Take a taxi to the nearest sushi place.. that will take care of 2 items at once! And what do you mean that you never "tried dancing"... what kind of dancing? Like at a club? Well, i guess that may not be entirely true, I did dancing for about 2 minutes at my sister's wedding. But "dancing" was me just moving around on th e floor a bit. I mean real dacing like the waltz or square dancing and the like. I never went to prom, but I don't really regret that choice, and I've never ridden in a limo either.

Never been snow skiing. I have been water skiing. Not a pretty sight.

I've done either kind of skiing. There's probably a very long list of what I haven't done.

I've never been snowboarding/skiing. Though it's on the list.
I've never seen the original 3 Star Wars (but have seen the 3 new ones).

The original Star Wars (called Episode 4) was perfect as a stand-alone movie.

I've managed a full life without seeing or reading any of the Twillight series. I've never been skiing or involved in any sport that calls for speed. I've been on this board back from the old msn days and have never been banned, does that count?

I may have seen more as a kid (I have a vague memory of seeing something in the theater as a kid) but I don't remember them. The first of the new ones bored me and annoyed me. If it's a prequel WHY is the technology better? (2 sided light saber) I couldn't get over it.

But my dad and bro were fans when I was growing and somehow literally every time I stumbled into the game room when they were watching it was that trash scene with the weird animal/thing. Every time. By the third or fourth time my kid self was thinking it was the stupidest movie ever because they're always in the trash and don't ever let me fall into a trash pit with that thing. I'll probably get around to watching them eventually - just haven't had the urge to figure out how to watch the originals on my own.

Interesting how many haven't been skiing. I have been snow skiing a couple of times, but not water skiing. I've never been banned either, I'm a boring poster. Mmhmm had to warn me to knock it off once, does that count?

So I guess one thing I've never done is suspend disbelief enough to just enjoy the movies without thinking about if they make any sense.

Threesome. Cruise. Recreational drugs other than alcohol.

I would really like to go:
1. Bungee jumping 2. Sky diving 3. Ride in a hot air balloon
I LOVE heights and that but my husband hates them. He's getting better and promises that one day he will do those things with me. I'm giving him until I'm 40 and then I'm doing them on my own if I have to.

Here's a few things I've never done that I WILL do before I die: *See Odessa and the Black Sea (DH's heritage) *visit my father and grandfather's relatives in Sicily *skydive (I've been water and snow skiing, bungee jumping, hang gliding, glider plane-ing, hot air ballooning, parasailing & zip lining ) *Pet a baby tiger or lion *raise a puppy to be given to the guide dog association

I was a bit of a speed freak in high school but I've never done Pot and I'm honestly kind of curious to try it one of these days.

I've never seen LOTR or Twilight (and sure hope I never have to) and I've never been skiing (zero desire)
everything else that was mentioned in the thread, I've done.
I'm trying to think of normal run of the mill type things most people do that I haven't... but I'm coming up empty...
EDIT: i've never had a threesome! I didn't see that before I posted lol

Hmmm, I think you need a boyfriend to get you into the scifi genre. Well I'm not not in the scifi genre. The main difference is my dad is way more of a Trekkie than a Star Wars fan. So I saw a lot more Star Trek growing up. The guys I've dated have all seen it and have opinions on it and the new ones, but we're ones to watch a marathon of it on May 4th. Hell, I've been to Disney's Star Wars Weekends several times - love the Storm Troopers they have just walking around - and been on Star Tours more times than I can count. Mainly just haven't seen them because no one that has the DVDs is like "here lets watch" and I never catch it at the beginning when it's on TV. As for the bf - sure! If he doesn't bore me with always talking about that stuff like debating the difference between Deadpool in the movies in the comics. Because before my eyes glaze over my response is always "Ryan Reynolds with his shirt off always wins".

Zip lining is SOOOOO much fun!! Men's magazine (I think, it also ran on MSN) had a list of the 10 craziest zip lines in the world. Those places have now been moved onto my travel bucket list.
