Have you ever played "I Never"? It's usually a drinking game. One person says something that they've never done, and if anyone in the room has done that thing, they take a big ol' swig of their drink.

Having a birthday and finishing 30 New Things made me a bit contemplative about all the things I've done or seen. Some of my greatest accomplishments are things that I haven't done. So, let's play "I Never."

Here's a list of things I've never done.* For every one that you have done, give yourself a point, then see the bottom for your score:

I Never:

Broke a bone
Had major surgery
Got pregnant
Had serious food poisoning
Got arrested
Ate offal
Had my stomach pumped
Been sued or involved in a lawsuit
Weighed 200+ #
Been stalked
Been in a fight
Been fired
Held a real job
Had strep throat or mono
Saw Rambo, Rocky, Terminator, Lethal Weapon (I point for each movie)
Been publicly pantsed
Been robbed or held at gunpoint
Wore gym shorts with a logo across the booty
Owned Truck Nutz
Shaved my head
Made out in a bathroom
Rode a mechanical bull
Punched someone
Been punched
Had alcohol poisoning
Wore a bikini in public after puberty
Hunted
Bungee-jumped
Sky-dived (sky dove?) um, jumped out of an airplane
Had plastic or cosmetic surgery
Read the Bible (completely)
Watched American Idol

So, give yourself a point for everything on this list that you’ve done.
If this were a drinking game, this is how your night would end:

0 - Designated driver
1-5 - Buzzed
6-10 - Tipsy
11-15 - Drunk
16-20 - Belligerent and stumbling drunk
21-25 - Blacking Out
26-30 - Passing out
31+ - Alcohol poisoning (give yourself another point!)

*This list is what it is. Some are things I'm glad I've never done. Some are things I want to do. Some are things I know you've done. And just because something isn't on this list doesn't mean that I have done it.*
