      Heyo, me too! I tried as a kid and busted my knee when I fell off, and gave it up.

        I’ve been afraid of falling since I was very very young, so that’s what led me to never want to ride :)

    I’ve never watched a football/soccer match. Sure I’ve seen some guys running on a field in the news, or sat in a bar with some screen in the background. But I have never watched a match in person either and have no interest in doing so.

    So far I’ve seen only pretty believable answers here so I’ll add my own: I’ve never been drunk enough to pass out, vomit, forget things or fall.

    The first wedding I ever attended was my own…and I was 35. I somehow had friends & family who didn’t get or were already married my entire life.

    Still never been to a birth or a funeral.

      When I was a young teen I did this a few times because my friends were doing it but those memories are shameful now.

          Me too, should we start a community for accidental criminals?

          Edit to add: I accidentally shoplifted shoelaces. I put them in the breast pocket of my shirt while looking for a few other things in the store. I think I left without buying anything at all.

            Mine was worse. Had a CD in my hand, that should be enough of an indicator this was long ago, and browsing around the store. Well, I saw a bunch of my friends just left so I ran to catch up with them and luckily theb security alarm didn’t go off. 10 mins later I realized what was in my hand. 😬

            Just dese too yoots.

            (It’s a reference to the courtroom dramedy film My Cousin Vinny, in which two innocent boys from New York driving throuth Alabama stop at a convenience store for groceries, one has so much food he’s carrying he sticks a can of tuna in his pocket, forgets about it by the time he gets to the register, realizes it’s in his pocket after they leave, and are then arrested for first degree murder. Joe Pesci ensues.)

              Ah, of course! It has been far too long since I’ve watched My Cousin Vinny and I shall take this as a sign that it’s time.

    alls Ill say is : I could turn you inside-out, with what I choose, not to do. Seriously though im way nerdy and introvert type but im in my 50’s so like eventually you do things. Never smoked though or taken a non prescription drug unless you include alcohol. Oh kratem but did not really have any effect.

        Okay, most Pop Tarts are like, I dunno, take ‘em or leave ‘em.

        But they have this new Banana Bread kind, and if you ever want to have your first Pop Tart (and you like banana bread) you could do far worse.

        I’ve never even seen one in real life.

        Granted they’re probably made of something that’s regulated here so…

        Yeah, knew it;

        The EU requires warning labels on artificial dyes. And countries like Austria, Finland and Norway don’t even take the chance of putting Twinkies on their shelves. Read about Yellow 5 dye and the horrible health effects here.

        (such a spammy site no point linking the source I sure that can be checked somewhere else)

        Never appealed to me. If I were to choose something in that class a Hostess Cup Cake always seemed like the more obvious choice.

        That being said Little Debbie > Hostess. Give me an Oatmeal Cookie, Star Crunch, or Nutty Buddy over either of those every day…

      How does autism affect whether you’ve had mac & cheese or a burger?

      (This question is not meant to be accusatory at all, purely curious.)

        ARFID. Has a common link to autism, but autism serves as a more overarching issue for me. It’s my refusal to accept therapy due to some weird complex that’s also a problem.

          my refusal to accept therapy due to some weird complex that’s also a problem.

          Hey, that one I totally get (as a non-autist, but with ADHD and there’s some overlap/camaraderie there).

          When I was in college I had a really positive experience with therapy, overall, although my therapist did (rightly) encourage my parents to get me into inpatient psychiatric care for a few days when I was at my lowest point of depression. That inpatient stay was extremely beneficial for me, I came out of it much healthier and in a better place, but I was also brought there against my will.

          Since then I’ve had a weird thing where I cognitively know I should go to therapy, but I just cannot bring myself to do it. I fully understand inpatient was the right call, my therapist did the right thing, therapy is very helpful, and there are plenty of other therapists anyway. But I still have this like, nagging anxiety about it. Loss of freedom can do weird things to the psyche.

          Fortunately I’ve had some recent positive experience, since my wife and I decided to go to some couples’ therapy (nothing serious, just wanted to make sure we can have as healthy a relationship as possible) and it helped a lot. So I’m starting to reconsider the whole notion.

    I’ve never had a headache which wasn’t the direct result of hitting my head or a hangover.

    I am half convinced people’s “random” headaches are all fake and humanity has just kind of silently agreed that “the headache” will be a socially acceptable way to back out of minorly annoying but otherwise low stakes obligations.

    Edit - does this mean I win the thread?

      I never had one until I was 17 and woke up with a crushing migraine, puking and crying. Those continued (not frequent but crazy intense) until I got pregnant, a pause each time I was. Menopause didn’t stop them (so disappointing) but menopause plus low dose hormones has pretty much done the trick.

      But I’ve never had a “regular” headache, like a tension headache. Only migraine, hangover, sinus.

      What I wanted to say though is that you are so lucky if your head never hurts, like hurts so infrequently that you think people are faking it. It’s a terrible place to hurt.

    Do you mean other people wouldn’t believe we’ve never done it or that they wouldn’t believe us if we said we did due to being so associated with never having done it?

        People often don’t believe I never went to vocal therapy or anything. Some people are skeptical of my NZ accent since I’m not anywhere where it’s common and ask if it’s artificial. If anything, it actually used to sound more Maori-ish, but certain neurological symptoms when I was little caused it to Kiwify. People think I’m just attention-seeking by having an accent I never asked for.
