Here’s the rules:

1: Post something you have never done that you think many people do. 2: Read the other posts, if you have done that thing, upvote it. If you have not done that thing, downvote it. 3: If you believe the person is lying, call them out on it in a reply. 4: If you are called out, give the full story. 4a: If you see a thread containing the full story, boost the person you think is right and truthful.

Person who has the most upvotes when the thread dies wins.

    Never have I ever read a single book or watched a single movie of the Harry Potter series.

    My brain always hurts when playing never have I ever, something about the wording just inherently confuses me every time. The upvote/downvote addition makes it worse haha

    Never have I ever been to a wedding! Looks like my own one will be the first I attend :o

      Dang it. I had it to the very end.

      No prom no dances but I did graduate and attend my graduation.

      I was the only one that graduated that year because I went to a small school and I worked ahead and so technically I was valedictorian and also technically every party I go to is a reunion party for my graduating class.

    I have never drank alcohol, despite persuasion from friends. I consider it unhealthy. Chemically, it’s a poison, and a “hangover” is the process of removing the poison.

      I definitely wouldn’t suggest that people need to run out with friends and drink copious amounts of alcohol. A night at the bar can be fun, but keeping that as an activity that a friend group commits to repeatedly isn’t a healthy setting (for instance alcoholism effects 10% of the population).

      That being said, there are a lot of constructive uses with alcoholic beverages such as cooking and really unique flavor profiles. Some of the mixtures that are 90%+ non-alcoholic have interesting tastes that you just can’t recreate without the alcohol changing subtle differences in what’s present. Definitely respect your choice not to drink though, just throwing this out there as a healthier alternative than binge drinking for those who do want to try.

        One semi-accidental food discovery I made is when you are sauteing onions and mushrooms, put a dash of soy (or even better liquid aminos) and then when they are almost done throw about a shot of red wine in and simmer it out. The combo brings out so much flavor that it’s almost overpoweringly good!

      You are very right in every aspect of this. It’s a poison, and it kills hundreds of thousands every year.

      It is unhealthy but it makes you relax and have fun if not drinking too much. Also it makes people horny which is a plus sometimes.

      I also don’t drink more than a few beers every few months, but if I lived in a warm country, I probably would. It’s very tasty when it’s hot.

      Upvoted! I learned how pretty young, but I have a few friends who never did and they have told me that the main thing holding them back as adults is the fear of falling down. Is it the same for you?

        Yes. I have a healthy, but irrational fear of falling. Heights do not bother me (flying in a plane is no big deal in terms of the height). But if I am even a foot above the ground under my own power (say, on a ladder), I get extremely unsteady and nervous.

        So bicycles were out pretty much from the beginning.

        My family, when I was young, would try to convince me by asking, “how can you drive a car if you can’t ride a bike?” Yeah my response shut them up pretty quickly: “a car has 4 tires and is stable.” I was seven years old.
