What is something you have never done, and people are shocked when you mention it?

I like the snow, but I am just not coordinated enough for skiing. I went cross country skiing and it did not end well. I fell so many times, it was embarrassing. I hate beaches, lakes, and any type of water that is not a swimming pool. Water skiing is not in my future.

I think my ankles are too weak for any sports that require a bit of leg strength. I can't skate or any of the other things so many people seem to just be able to do. I do love the beach and water though, just have better luck riding in a tube behind the boat.

Never seen Seinfeld, Friends, Star Trek, Games Of Thrones or Breaking Bad.

I've never been to Las Vegas.

I try to experience everything though. Within reason of course.

I’ve never been in a car accident and have only gotten one speeding ticket in my life. That’s shocking to those who know me because most people (ok, everyone) say I am a terrible driver who drives way too fast. Both are probably true, btw.

Thank you for sticking to the point of the thread and actually saying something shocking for you. Some, ok most, of these things are hardly shocking lol

I kind of thought using that word in the title was imprecise. More appropriate would have been "something that surprises people" or "that people wouldn't guess". I couldn't possibly care enough about who watches what on tv or who plays what sports to be "shocked".

Good point.

The only way it would be possibly shocking that you don’t drink coffee is if your last name is Folgers or something lol

No, when I created the thread, I was using my personal experience with people actually being SHOCKED that I have never seen Seinfeld. It has happened several times to me...I make that comment, and people's jaw drops, and they say "You have NEVER seen Seinfeld? How is that possible." Genuine shock.

Thus, the point of this thread. Something you have never done that OTHER people are shocked about when you mention it.

The Bible doesn't say it, doesn't directly talk about politics much at all really as it would apply to our modern context, and in fairness, @verleniahall never said it did. It certainly does refer to a husband as the head of a household, and I guess that plays out differently for every couple that holds to it.

Ok the poster said she didn't vote because her husband was the head of the household and it was a biblical standing.

I'm not a mod but really.......no religion or politics!! Other wise I think this thread is a lot of fun!!!!

I've never broken a bone *immediately knocks on wood*....or seen any Star Wars movies.

I wish people would stick to the meaning of your thread. I can’t imagine anyone being SHOCKED that I haven’t watched The Walking Dead.

I think it’s shocking that @jevs is Australian and doesn’t like Vegemite. It’s deeeelish

A weird one. I've never been to a strip club, nor have I ever wanted to. I'm sure that's true of millions of people, but I guess I fit some stereotype because people are shocked when that information comes out.

 

[DISNEYSQUIRRELS]

Had a Starbucks coffee.

Don’t worry, I’ve had my share plus ALL of yours!

 

[WorldWacky]

At first I thought you were referring to the post directly above yours about never going to strip clubs!

I too have never watched that. Or friends or modern family or most any other sit com or hospital show.

Ive never had a waffle and i wont eat grilled food, tastes dirty to me. Every bbq i fill my plate with salads and ppl are just shocked.

 

[Grumpy's Gal]

Drank coffee

 

[lilia78]

Ive never been pulled over by the RCMP nor have I ever even gotten a parking ticket. I’ve been a licensed driver for 24 years.

 

[barkley]

never liked the food at in-n-out burger. i don't know what the draw is-their burgers are no better than any place else and everyone seems to universally agree that they make the worst fries ever.
