I've never seen Star Wars...

Along those lines of the famous game, what pretty common things have you not experienced?

  • I truly haven't seen (entire films of) Star Wars. Any of them.
(Nor an episode of Game of Thrones, for that matter)
  • I have never taken a selfie.
  • I've never cheated in a relationship.
  • I have never eaten (nor will I ever eat, unless held at gunpoint) pineapple on pizza. I love pineapple. I love pizza. But the thought of combining them makes me feel physically ill.

Never seen any Star Wars films
Ditto James Bond, any Marvel film, any Lord Of The Rings, Harry Potter, Die Hard, Rocky or any other franchise type movie ( you get the drift!), any American sitcom, or drama series come to that!
Never used facebook or any other social media stuff.
Never eaten a Macdonalds, KFC, Burger King, Nandos or any of that rubbish which masquerades as food.
Never lived in a town or city, or even a village.
Never had a tattoo or piercing (and never will).

So are you saying that you have only ever lived in isolated homes out in the middle of a moor or somewhere like that?

wordonthestreetisthat · 03/04/2023 22:43

Never been to Nando's

AsanteSana · 03/04/2023 22:54

@AndiOliversFan, yup! Always lived out in the middle of nowhere! My childhood home was innaccessible by vehicle - a half mile walk along a riverbank from the nearest road. And currently live up a single track lane with nearest neighbours about quarter of a mile away. Bliss!

I've also never been clubbing. Neither in my teens nor in the 3 decades since.

I've never cooked Christmas Dinner.

I've never donated blood.
(wish I could, but a health condition means I'm not eligible).

@Awwlookatmybabyspider,
Yep, the phrase "get a life" was coined for us 😉
