Ah, I have another one. I have given birth to a child, but I have never felt a labor pain.

Emergency C-Section. She was a week late, and I had a fetal non-stress test. She was found to be under fetal distress, so they cut me open. She was fine once she was born.

Until this past year, I had never seen the movie Casablanca. Then it came on one night, and I watched it. Good flick. D

Never burped or eaten an apple are very unusual NOT to have done, alright.

Another few of mine:

Never made out while at a drive-in movie. Have made out in a car, have watched drive-in movies, but I never did both together.

Never finished a DQ Blizzard. It was so sickeningly sweet and fake-tasting that I only had a few sip-spoonfuls before ditching it. YUCK.

Never got into a full-on fist fight with anybody. Have pushed, been pushed, hit, been hit, but the fight didn’t escalate. Which is good.

Never wore makeup or fancied up my hair.

I have never lived in an single family home.

I'm in my 70s and have lived in Chicago (city, not suburbs) all my life.

My parents were renters for their entire lives, and, so far, I am also. I have only lived in apartments and paid rent monthly as an adult. Because of this fact, I have never had a garage, driveway, or even a side yard.

Therefore, I have never purchased property.
