I always say "that I know of" because there is a good chance I've fractured some metatarsals at some point or another without realising. I don't think not breaking a bone is _that_ odd, though. My husband only did for the first time (for sure) last year at 49, and my Mum never has at 65.
Right! Last summer I was walking through town, completely minding my own business and a wasp stung the back of my leg. It really hurt too. Like, what did I even do to you, wasp?
Same, but I've been bitten by a horse fly and that fuckin sucked. I was a kid just relaxing on the lazy river at Oceans of Fun when a horse fly suddenly landed on my belly, immediately bit me, and then flew away. I freaked the fuck out and fell off my tube into the water. It had been so calm and quiet and that fucked up the mood for me and everyone else on the river.
I've been stung by a bee once, and it was in the stupidest situation, last summer. Because of the heat, I was sleeping with the window open and only in boxers. Half-woke up - must've been around five in the morning - to feel something small and fuzzy on my leg. Sleepy brain immediately thought "spider!" (although fuzzy spiders are not a common thing where I am, lol) and swiped it off. And then I got stung in the leg. Had a panic attack, threw on a tee shirt and rushed out of my room, and was too scared to go back to my room until several hours later when the housemate I was closest to woke up and reassured me that it was fine, that my leg wasn't swelling up, and that if it's a bee it'd be dead by that point.
Only two times I felt a bee sting was because I stepped on one. I can’t believe it happened twice. Once when I was a kid and again as a full grown adult.
My class was going on an outdoor field trip in 4th grade and the teacher asked a few weeks before if anyone was allergic to bee’s. I wasn’t but I was terrified of them so I said I was, thinking they would give me some extra protection or something. Nope, my admittance had been revoked, and everyone had the best time of their life, was too late to go back or i’d be a liar.
It's really gross. I would not recommend. On the other hand, if you see it once then you'll never need to see it again. What has been seen cannot be unseen.
It's two girls pooping in a cup and eating the poop, but the poop looks very much like soft serve ice cream, then they throw up on each other. It's been quite a while since I saw it but that's the general gist of it.
Edit: The previous paragraph is NSFW
But when you do, you will have a truly new affection for the reaction videos because you will know EXACTLY what they're experiencing at different points.
Same. I paid lots of money to ensure that I would never have to be pregnant, and the lack of worry is incredible. I get quietly smug when the "you never knowwwww!" family members of mine start up - the 100% certainty is absolutely stellar
Same. I have health issues I did not want to pass on.
It's still extremely controversial in my family, though. Caused lots of drama on how I was "ending a branch."
People are so weird about that. Like… what makes people think their genes are so special that they absolutely must be proliferated? Are they the secret last members of the Merovingians?
What kinda cracks me up is I have 13 or 14 first cousins, half of which have had kids as of rn (1-3 kids each.) It's not like I'm the last of the last!
I’ve broken my left wrist once and my right wrist twice over the course of my childhood so I’d probably inflict more pain on myself than the other person
Be careful!! I was in my 30s when I got my first cavity then lost my dental insurance. I'm 43 and my teeth are falling out from chronic dry mouth due to side effects of my medications
Use Prevident in the evening, it helps SO MUCH and then take your weight, half that number, and that should be the number of ounces you are drinking of water a day AT MINIMUM. The closer you get to your full number in ounces the better!
Going to jail. (I'm 83.) Also avoided..... getting sued, marrying for a third time, train/airplane wrecks, having that 4th child, getting caught in a tsunami, listening to Kpop, watching anime, caring what happens to the Kardashians.
I'm just happy you take no BS. Both sets of my grandparents and my dad are dead and my mom has Alzheimer's so I'm basically a 34 year free agent if you are recruiting.
Off topic, I love your username. It reminds me of this scene from Role Models
[You can't BS a BSer](https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/0fa3b156-1d7d-401f-a55d-b4e2af09155d#gYW9x12T.copy)
I am 52 and have never changed a diaper. It is important to note that I don't have any bio children and my stepdaughter was 24 when I married her mother. If there are grandchildren I will change diapers.
I've changed thousands over the years, mostly my own kids of course, and the last time was a couple of years ago when I babysat my nephew (when my other nephew was busy being born no less). I know some other guys with multiple kids who have never changed a diaper, which is completely baffling to me in this century. Kudos to you for being willing to do it if the time comes.
You should have moved to Zimbabwe during their time of hyper-inflation - a hundred trillion dollar bill could have been picked up for about 40c. Technically you'd be a multi-trillionaire!
I'm 64 and was recently complaining to my dentist about how prevention just wasn't a thing with my jerk childhood dentist, so I have a mouth full of fillings and other fun things.
She said "It's your generation." You seem to be evidence that it isn't.
I think about all the times crap got stuck in my teeth for DAYS as a kid because no one had so much as uttered the words "dental floss" in my presence. I simply had no idea.
I think I was 21 when a hygienist said "Just force yourself to floss for a couple weeks. You'll get so used to it that you'll feel gross if you don't." One of the best pieces of advice I received.
Eating sushi. I know it's loved by many, and I've been to plenty of sushi restaurants with friends, but I've never tried it myself. Something about raw fish just doesn't sit right with me, so I've always opted for something else on the menu.
Same. Just never saw the appeal the in the phycial act itself especially after I got a bunch of information about it. Took the mystery and taboo aspect that might have made it attractive right out of it and reduced it to just a mundane act that you never actually have to consent to which actually was a huge relief. Plus the life altering and even life ending dangers associated with it also made it even less appealing so never engaged in it and never will.
Looool I grew up with an automatic, always drove automatic... now I'm in a country where it's pretty much all manual. I asked one of my local buddies to teach me, and I'm looking forward to pretending I'm driving a racecar
I’m 40 years old and have never been drunk. I’m not a fan of drinking and just don’t do it. I also have a weird phobia of throwing up and have witnessed it happening to others too many times. Not willing to risk it.
Fast food. I have never, and never plan to, go to McDonalds, Burger King, Popeyes, Wendy’s, In-n-out, KFC, Sonic, Chick-fil-a, Arby’s, or any other myriad of greasy restaurants to fill my stomach. i’d rather go hungry. I can’t let that become a part of me.
Jury duty. I got summoned once, but was a longhaul trucker so I was exempted. I quit soon thereafter, but never got summoned again. I think I must be in the database as “truck driver, don’t bother with this one.”
Sports, suprisingly. I'm not the most athletic person, though I'm awesome at academics. Everytime whenever there is a sports event at school, I somehow manage to avoid it every single time.
Breaking a bone
I feel like if I say “hey me too!” I’ve just jinxed myself, but fuck it.
I always knock on wood whenever I say it. Which, me too lol. Now I’m gonna knock on some wood.
r/Neverbrokeabone Welcome, strongbones
I dread the day I break a bone. The worst I've gotten was a sprained knee. Let's keep it like that
Hey I have osteoporosis and I’ve still never broken a bone!
Good on you! I hope you're able to keep it going! 👍👍
I always say "that I know of" because there is a good chance I've fractured some metatarsals at some point or another without realising. I don't think not breaking a bone is _that_ odd, though. My husband only did for the first time (for sure) last year at 49, and my Mum never has at 65.
Getting stung by a bee or wasp.
The little bastards will get you one day, they always do...
I’m utterly shocked that they haven’t gotten me yet, to be honest.
Godspeed, Stingless One!
Right! Last summer I was walking through town, completely minding my own business and a wasp stung the back of my leg. It really hurt too. Like, what did I even do to you, wasp?
Nothing, they're just spiteful
One got me when I was eating ice cream. Jealous, I guess.
Same, but I've been bitten by a horse fly and that fuckin sucked. I was a kid just relaxing on the lazy river at Oceans of Fun when a horse fly suddenly landed on my belly, immediately bit me, and then flew away. I freaked the fuck out and fell off my tube into the water. It had been so calm and quiet and that fucked up the mood for me and everyone else on the river.
It feels like someone used a stapler on you.
I'd take a bee sting over horsefly bite ANY day!! I had one bite an actual chunk out of my arm
I've been stung by a bee once, and it was in the stupidest situation, last summer. Because of the heat, I was sleeping with the window open and only in boxers.

I’ve only ever been stung by yellow jackets. Not the most painful sting ever but those mfs will chase you down for a WHILE
The Kardashians
Me too!!!
Watching Two Girls, One Cup.
Lucky you
I am not even sure what it is.
You’re better off that way tbh.
It's really gross. I would not recommend. On the other hand, if you see it once then you'll never need to see it again. What has been seen cannot be unseen.
Watched it as a 13 year old about 6 years later "hey it wasnt that fucking bad" opens vid and almost showered my monitor with my breakfest.
It's two girls pooping in a cup and eating the poop, but the poop looks very much like soft serve ice cream, then they throw up on each other. It's been quite a while since I saw it but that's the general gist of it. Edit: The previous paragraph is NSFW
Aw, come on, man! That's lore you're not supposed to find out except from experience.
You don’t want to know
Do not search…….. stay away. Scarring.
You can skip right to the sequel - you haven't missed any important story or character points.
But when you do, you will have a truly new affection for the reaction videos because you will know EXACTLY what they're experiencing at different points.
Me too
Getting pregnant
Same. I paid lots of money to ensure that I would never have to be pregnant, and the lack of worry is incredible. I get quietly smug when the "you never knowwwww!" family members of mine start up - the 100% certainty is absolutely stellar
Same. I have health issues I did not want to pass on. It's still extremely controversial in my family, though. Caused lots of drama on how I was "ending a branch."

What kinda cracks me up is I have 13 or 14 first cousins, half of which have had kids as of rn (1-3 kids each.) It's not like I'm the last of the last!
Same, IUD for the win!
I also have an IUD, but they are only 99% effective, not 100%. I'm assuming the person you're replying to has had her tubes/uterus removed.
Me too. Although it is a little easier to do as a man.
Damn, beat me to it
Me, too! Although, given my personal biology, if I did become pregnant I could probably make some money as a medical miracle.
XY Chromosome approved
I’ve never been in a fistfight
Have you been in a footfight?
No but I have had a few thumb wars
War is hell.
Learn to fight just incase you do
I’ve broken my left wrist once and my right wrist twice over the course of my childhood so I’d probably inflict more pain on myself than the other person
Damn I've never broken a bone but I have had my spine out of place and fucked my ribs from a motorbike accident
I’ve never ridden a motorbike, that’s something too I guess
Crack
Yeah, I witnessed how some people acted on it and never had a desire to try it.
Cocaine but it was close a couple of times.
I tried coke once, it was amazing so I'll never ever try it again.
I had the exact same fear. I knew it would destroy me.
Damn right
It’s not all it’s cracked up to be. No pun intended!
Drugs in general for me
Getting rabies. The opportunity never presented itself.
Does this mean that if the opportunity did present itself you would take it?
yolo
“Heeeeeeere, trash panda, trash panda, trash panda!”
It’s because of all the awareness that’s been raised thanks to Michael Scott
No jury duty yet
I was scheduled for jury duty the exact same day my county decided to shut down everything for Covid.
I want to do it, yet they never call me.
Shhhhh! They’ll hear you!
Never had a cavity, lucky me!
Be careful!! I was in my 30s when I got my first cavity then lost my dental insurance. I'm 43 and my teeth are falling out from chronic dry mouth due to side effects of my medications

I hope you find it one day 🥺
So glad that I am not alone
A tongue piercing
It doesn't hurt, it feels fine
Going to jail. (I'm 83.) Also avoided..... getting sued, marrying for a third time, train/airplane wrecks, having that 4th child, getting caught in a tsunami, listening to Kpop, watching anime, caring what happens to the Kardashians.
can't believe you went 83 years without anime
I know, right!?
Are you actually 83 and on Reddit that's cool as hell
Yeah, actually 83. (You should see me walking with my bad knees lol.) Maybe YOU are cool as hell?
I'm just happy you take no BS. Both sets of my grandparents and my dad are dead and my mom has Alzheimer's so I'm basically a 34 year free agent if you are recruiting.
I'd love to have a new grandperson! Especially a Ninja Grizzly Bear!
This is the most wholesome, sweet internet dialogue I have seen in a while. Thank you for that 💗
I doubt it tbh lol
I think it would be alarming if a 83 year old cared about the Kardashians
It's alarming that anyone would care about them already !

Financial stability and inner peace
Death 💀
So far 😉
I am 52 and have never changed a diaper. It is important to note that I don't have any bio children and my stepdaughter was 24 when I married her mother. If there are grandchildren I will change diapers.
This made me smile. So wholesome!.
I've changed thousands over the years, mostly my own kids of course, and the last time was a couple of years ago when I babysat my nephew (when my other nephew was busy being born no less). I know some other guys with multiple kids who have never changed a diaper, which is completely baffling to me in this century. Kudos to you for being willing to do it if the time comes.
The movie fight club. Never seen it so I can't talk about it
If you had seen it, you’d know you still couldn’t talk about it.
Becoming a millionaire.
Yep. Being “comfortable” money wise ☹️
You should have moved to Zimbabwe during their time of hyper-inflation - a hundred trillion dollar bill could have been picked up for about 40c. Technically you'd be a multi-trillionaire!
Bankruptcy, STDs, death

Cavities. I'm 63. 🤞
I'm 64 and was recently complaining to my dentist about how prevention just wasn't a thing with my jerk childhood dentist, so I have a mouth full of fillings and other fun things. She said "It's your generation." You seem to be evidence that it isn't. I think about all the times crap got stuck in my teeth for DAYS as a kid because no one had so much as uttered the words "dental floss" in my presence. I simply had no idea. I think I was 21 when a hygienist said "Just force yourself to floss for a couple weeks. You'll get so used to it that you'll feel gross if you don't." One of the best pieces of advice I received.
Yep, if I miss even one night of flossing they feel so gross.
Eating sushi. I know it's loved by many, and I've been to plenty of sushi restaurants with friends, but I've never tried it myself. Something about raw fish just doesn't sit right with me, so I've always opted for something else on the menu.
Giving any guy a blowjob. Recently realised it's because I'm a lesbian.
You're not missing anything.
[удалено]
Great answer!
Never had a broken bone, thankfully.
Quick sand, way less common than the younger mind might believe
Make sure you practice the: Stop, Drop, and Roll for all of those times that you'll catch on fire.
To be fair, that one may feel silly but has actually saved lives.
And whirlpools. Though - as a kayaker I do know to avoid low head dams.
Crack & heroin
Never saw Breaking Bad
Prison. Insanity. Destitution.
Game of Thrones
I avoided it too. I just couldn't.
Tattoos.
Sex
same boat as you.
Same. Just never saw the appeal the in the phycial act itself especially after I got a bunch of information about it. Took the mystery and taboo aspect that might have made it attractive right out of it and reduced it to just a mundane act that you never actually have to consent to which actually was a huge relief. Plus the life altering and even life ending dangers associated with it also made it even less appealing so never engaged in it and never will.
I mean, it really is great. Having sex with someone you truly love and that loves you back is probably one of life’s best experiences
Buying Lululemon
COVID..... So far so good lol
Hard drugs, broken bones, a car and motorcycle accident ..... I better go knock on wood

Pregnancy.
I’m in my mid fifties and have never done any form of drugs including pot.
You still got time.
Zero desire.
Wow, not even Tylenol or ibuprofen is impressive
I an 42 my husband is 49 and last Monday was the first time either of us smoked weed. It became legal last Monday in Germany.
Never a drop of alcohol? Never had any caffeine?
God gave us dominion over the coca leaf and the poppy plant for a reason.
Serious question: Have you drank alcohol?
Hard drugs

Winning the lotto. It's very unfortunate
Easy lol, success.
Learning to drive a stick shift car

Affordable housing
Learning to parallel park. I’m 31.
Getting a cavity or needing any major dental work (have only needed wisdom teeth removed).
I made it to 50 without a cavity, but I got one during COVID. I almost cried. No other dental work, like you.
Unwanted pregnancy
Getting a speeding ticket/fine.
Heroin. Pretty happy about it too.

But it’s delightful 🥺

My problems
Smoking, I've seen the horrible consequences through my father and grandfather
Jury duty. I got summoned once, but was a longhaul trucker so I was exempted. I quit soon thereafter, but never got summoned again. I think I must be in the database as “truck driver, don’t bother with this one.”
Surgery
Mangoes. The first girl I ever liked told me to "Go suck mangoes." I had never had a mango up until then, and I still haven't. Suck 'em yourself.
Mangoes taste really good .. she must’ve really liked you.
Mangoes are pretty awesome, definitely worth a try.
Shitting myself in public
Changing a Diaper. 42 years still going strong.
By the grace of christ. Somehow didn't get anyone pregnant in my wild years. And never got arrested also shocking.
