I was reading Linda B's post the other day and she invited readers to play a game called, I've Never...
From Linda's blog: Game explanation
Each player receives five (or three if there's less time) toothpicks. Each time the player HAS done the shared action, she or he must forfeit a toothpick. The one or you can choose to have three who still have at least one toothpick are the winners! You can time it and those left are the winners.
Here's my list...
I've never. . .
- climbed a mountain
- traveled to South America
- eaten Red Snapper
- worn 4" heels
- been to a professional basketball game
- ubered
- watched The Walking Dead
- read or watched Gone With the Wind
- been in a helicopter
- voted Republican
- seen the Northern Lights
How did you do?
Your post cost me 3 toothpicks. :)
ReplyDeleteWe have lots in common:)
DeleteI lost 3 toothpicks (Professional basketball game, The Walking Dead, and Northern Lights) I don't care about two of them, but the Northern Lights are on my bucket list.
ReplyDeleteExactly the same as me. Northern lights, YES.
DeleteToothpick count: 5 1/2
ReplyDeleteMountain… ½ toothpick, depends on definition of mountain and climbing
South America- definite toothpick
Red Snapper- toothpick
4” heels- toothpick (though not a habit)
Professional BBall game- toothpick
GWTW- read many times, movie many times (toothpick)
Would like to:
See Northern Lights
It's interesting how such a simple game generates interest.
DeleteI'm out! I lost 9. Did I do that right? (There are 9 things on your list out of 11 that I have not done.
ReplyDeleteYes, that's true. Imagine - there are 11 for me:)
DeleteThanks for the shout out, Mary Ann, and love seeing your list. I was out pretty fast, but have not worn 4 inch heels!
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine standing up, let alone walking in 4" heels:)
DeleteGreat game. Lots of fun.
Shoot - I lost all of my toothpicks before the final two items! (Ok, 4-inch heals only lasted 20 minutes...so not counting them!) Snapper, mountain, helicopter, uber, and GWTW got me. Such a fun format - thanks for sharing, I'm adding it to my list of potential blog topics and structures at love2learn4life.weebly.com
ReplyDeleteYou cost me eight...sigh. Two of these I have no regrets about not doing or ever doing: wearing 4inch heels (flats, clogs, and sneakers for me) or voting Republican (ugh!).
ReplyDeleteLOL. I have no regrets about those things either:)
DeleteI was out long before the end of the list! Your list would cost me 7 toothpicks! Thanhs for the thought provoking slice!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had fun!
DeleteI handed over three. I have climbed a mountain, gone to a professional basketball game (The Celtics) and have watched Gone With the Wind. I have seen photos of the Northern Lights. This.....I have tried and tried to witness, but no luck so far. This was fun.
ReplyDeleteFun is good. I so want to see the Northern Lights. Rob used to say he wanted to hear them.
DeleteInteresting "game" . . . I have to surrender 6 of the 11 toothpicks.
ReplyDeleteLost four toothpicks. I've been to South American, watched a professional basketball game, ubered, and watched GWTW.
ReplyDelete3 for me...Red Snapper (Several times on my honeymoon), pro basketball game (one Knicks game) and watched Gone With The Wind (several times on TV and once when it was re released in theaters for the 75th anniversary.)
