I guess this is some sort of internet game, but I still have a hard time thinking about what others might have done. I am more interested in spending my time doing what I want to do.

I’ve never been skiing or in a hot air balloon.
I’ve never been to a football game
I’ve never eaten caviar
I’ve never snorted cocaine
I’ve never had a pedicure
I’ve never had a manicure
Me neither. I usually inject it.

Exactly. A bit far fetched. Most likely, they've never noticed because it happened unconsciously.

Very interesting, as so many have listed feats untried. Almost as goals.

Also a surprise is motorcycling.

(I used to be an MSF ridercoach, before California decided to go with the Total Control Program.)

I'm NOT facilitating that hot mess....

Not the worst question. I was thinking, "how can someone not have..." then realized some of what folks have / have not done are alien to me. We're all have different experiences!

I'm 53, and never...

* = bucket list.
(1) = not in this lifetime!


Been married (1)
Had kids (1)
Done coke or anything harder than dope (1)
Pointed a gun at anyone. Nor had one pointed at me. My dad used to say, two tours in the US Navy: "I've never been shot at, and I'm good with that!" (1, hopefully)
Worked with night vision devices*
Been to the Far East (Near East, yes)*
Summited a major mountain*

Borrowed from others on this thread:

Been on a cruise (1)
Spent time in jail (1)

Throwaway:

Masterminded a jewel heist (1)

Last thoughts:
  • I've not only "ridden" a motorcycle, but owned 14 to date including three race bikes, and raced with AFM and AMA three years in the 1990s. Didn't make money doing so though. I'm still alive and not crippled from the experience. Ambulanced off the track once, that was a bad day though I wasn't seriously injured just knocked out.
  • I've owned half dozen or so semi-exotic cars, I think most guys want to experience that at least once.

Surfed

The burping is hard to believe. She was a baby once.

My list is similar, I am a bit older than you at 63, have been married just once, and looks like that will indeed be "until death parts us" as she is suffering from Huntington's Disease and won't outlive me.

Have motorcycles and still have all 3 I have bought. Have not been riding the last couple of years. Never did any on-track riding. Did take a "Ride like a Cop" class locally here, and that was a real hoot, and learned some excellent skills for close and slow maneuvering.

I do have one skydiving jump to my credit.

Have been to Moscow and Kiev a few times, but never in the near east or far east. With the way air travel has got, I'm probably not going across the ocean again, ever.

Like you, all the ordinary experiences of parenting are things I have not done, and I don't want to do them, don't miss all that one bit.
