Things You've Never Done That Others May Find a Little Weird
Other
Just a fun post really about things you've never done that others may find weird or strange.
My main ones are -
I've never been into a Greggs.
I've never watched a single episode of Britain's Got Talent, X Factor, Love Island or Gogglebox.
I have never skyped or zoomed, nor do I have Twitter or Instagram, does that count? I did have fb twice but deleted twice as it wasn't good for my blood pressure, so much trolling and swearing!
blacklabrador That's not weird, I've never had a Subway and had my first kabab 5 years ago. No fb, Instagram, Twitter, zoom, tic-tok. Never watched Love Island nor seen any TV in the last 5 years.
lilyflower, my friend, I find the last one very weird 
. My life would not be worth living without TV. Most of my knowledge has been acquired through that medium, more than I ever learned at school.
I have watched a series on the plantagenets, tudors, knights templar, history of weapons, castles, war of the roses, not to mention cookery, serious entertainment etc. I don't watch any of the stuff blacklabrador mentioned and rarely watch anything that I cannot glean something useful from.
Having said all that I bet you fill your time with far more useful stuff than me!
Lynibis Re no TV, you get used to not having it. When I was in the 'family' home there was only ONE TV allowed and I was well down the list in programme choice, so when I moved out 'why get a TV' had a laptop for news and radio for music and my books - oh then I met a man!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Skyped my daughter when she was in the States but it 'doesn't seem to work' in this country! Now that we are early retired the plan was to travel and hike so far not a lot this year, so back to music, books and my family history. We do watch films/documentaries on Netflix.
lilyflower well I can understand how it came about, sounds like you are never bored!
blacklabrador What about "things you've DONE that others may find a little weird"?
- I have never had a single tattoo or a piercing.
- I have never watched a single episode of Game of Thrones nor Love Island.
- I have never used TickTock.
- I have never set foot in a Starbucks or a Costa.
- I have never smoked.
- I have never drank gin (despite me sharing many gin comps on here in the past)
Ha ha, just had to reply to your list lol. Great fun!
- I don't think that's weird, I think those that have them are weird defacing the largest organ of their body.
- How can you put GOT and Love Island in the same sentence lol? One is brain numbing and the other is great entertainment
- I've never used it either but you spelt it wrong
4.Yeh, that's a little bit weird as lots of people use them as a meeting place. I only go about 6 times a year if that, shocking prices 
- That's not weird, that's sensible, can't find a pic of a cigarette!
- What's your favourite tipple?
Lynibis Thank you for your response. I had a good laugh reading it. 
- I think it's so ugly.
- Sorry.
- The only type of 'TickTock' I am familiar with is the sound that a clock makes. So please excuse the mistake.
- Yeah, far too expensive. Though I have been to Greggs.
- Yes. And that will continue.
- I love JD and Coke. Very nice.
- I always mistake them for dirt until I am close up
- You're forgiven, though it depends which one you thought was mind numbing!
- As you thought it was to do with a clock it's only right you thought it was tick tock not tik tok
- Ah, cheap like me then
- Glad to hear it, all the better with covid around.
- Mine's a vodka thanks!
I am glad you only listed 6 lol!
Iv never watched an episode of love Island either.
Iv never had a KFC
Iv never been on a plane. ( I travel via Car, Coach or boat
Iv never learnt to swim
Never married.
Never used tiktok either
Never watched any British reality show (or any reality show in the last 20+years)
Not watched anything British in about 20 years either
Hopefully this isnβt TMI..Weird for me would be like.. i have probably cut my toe nails once in my life (and Iβm not under 18!) I have issues with feet 
I hope someone does it for you then, otherwise it must be difficult getting your shoes on!!!
Never ever used a tweezer on my eyebrows
Never joined Instagram, Snapchat or skype either
Never been to Cadbury's world, Alton towers, Blackpool
Never went to watch a movie at the cinema with a friend (always with my sis)
Never had a pet
I actually had a gap of about 30 years between Cinema visits, it's something I've only started doing again in the last couple of years
Aww bless .. going to the cinema was such a common thing for people in my school days .. now people use Netflix .. Amazon prime etc
Absolutely, why pay nearly a tenner for a cinema ticket when that can get you a month and a halfs worth of Netflix
Never watched Top Gun, Dirty Dancing, Game Of Thrones or Tiger King... people stare at my open mouthed when I say these things....
I don't think I've seen Dirty Dancing.
As for Tiger King, I watched it simply because I couldn't draw my eyes away from it.
I've never dyed my hair, which according to my friends is strange, never smoked, I don't drink, I've never used tiktok or zoom, I've never seen tiger king or GOT, I've never had a tattoo. There are probably lots more.
I've never eaten raw tomato.
I sank my teeth into one when I was little and was sick. So instead of me having a BLT, I just have a BL.
I'm fine with cooking with pasta sauces etc and I do like a bit of tommy sauce in my sausage sandwiches.
It's weird, I like most things tomato, but a glass of tomato juice makes me retch.
The only time I tried a b100dy mary was carnage. 
blacklabrador oooooh I love a virgin bloody mary, in fact I just bought a carton of tommy juice and love loads of Worcester sauce in it.
Lynibis that's the thing, they sound lovely, just something about the smell when you go to drink it.
Iβve never purchased boxed tissues, as I tend to use loo rolls instead. I too have never watched Love Island or Googlebox
I've never broken a bone (crikey I shouldn't have said that)! I have never watched Love Island either.
I have never reversed into a parking space, or reverse parallel parked.
I wanna know who it is who is watching Love Island, as there's not too many on here.
Never tried Starbucks/Costa or any of these coffee shops!! I can't justify paying over 3gbp for coffee with cream on it...
In my home country an expresso is 60cents and I don't touch that either lol
I love my Costa, but yep the price is a shocker, Β£3.10 the last time I was in there for a large Cappuccino.
When I was in Faro last year I was shocked when I asked a small coffee shop for an espresso and it cost just 40 cents.
Silly old me made hay and had 3, and then wondered why I couldn't sleep on the flight home.
I've never drank alcohol. Never been to burger king and I've never owned a games console. I'm a PC Gamer instead
I think I prefer Burger King to Mcdonalds, trouble is nearest one is 8 miles away whereas there's a drive thru Mcdonalds on the way home from work 
Iβve never watched a single episode of Love Island, never seen Home Alone or Die Hard or many of the very popular films that supposedly everyone has seen... Iβve also never drank a cup of tea..
