- Never have I ever missed a flight. I have missed a flight. One time when we were traveling when Wally was an active toddler, we had him in a quiet part of the airport away from the gate to keep him out of other travelers' hair. We were far enough away that we didn't hear the boarding calls and missed our flight. We were able to reschedule, but it was an awful feeling when we realized that our plane had left without us.
- Never have I ever drunk-dialed my ex. I have never drunk dialed my ex. I've never been drunk, so this was an easy one.
- Never have I ever ridden a motorcycle. I have ridden a motorcycle, but it was not a good experience, so I've never done it again.
- Never have I ever lost a bet. I have lost many bets. Now, if I could only remember one of them.
- Never have I ever gotten lost alone in a foreign country. I have never been lost alone in a foreign country. I have never traveled alone in a foreign country, and I don't think I've ever been lost. That goodness for my husband's good sense of direction.
- Never have I ever bribed someone. I have bribed someone; however, I prefer to call it a behavior modification technique. I have offered my kids various "rewards" to change their behavior.
- Never have I ever gone skinny-dipping. I have not gone skinny-dipping, but I was at a skinny-dipping party in college where I was one of the few who left their clothes on.
- Never have I ever played hooky from school or work. I have played hooky from school. When I was in high school, I used to take days off to visit my sisters in college. I never got permission to go from the school. I just went. And I didn't have to have a note from my parents. I'm not sure why there wasn't more accountability, but I was a good student, so I think that helped.
- Never have I ever broken a bone. I have never broken a bone.
- Never have I ever lived alone. I have lived alone. I lived alone during college and enjoyed it.
- Never have I ever been on a yacht. I have never been on a yacht. I don't like any boat bigger than a canoe because I get seasick.
- Never have I ever stolen anything. I have stolen something. When I was a little kid, I stole a piece of candy from an open candy bin at the local 5-and-dime store. It tasted good, but I always felt guilty about it.
Have you ever played this game? How did you keep score?
What an interesting game. Was fun to read your answers. Never have I ever I remember a show by this name. Anyway most of my answers match yours. I once Stole a greeting card from a shop, don't know why then I went back and returned it. I was 6 or 7 maybe.

I read that there is a show on Netflix with this title, but I haven't seen it. There wasn't any way to return the candy like you did the card because I ate it. :)
DeleteThis could be a cute game to play as an ice breaker with only a question or two for people to answer. I have not played it before other than a meme that might be on Facebook where there is a list of things you have done or haven't done and you score for the ones you have done. I've never missed a flight but my son and his family did a few years back when flying out to my niece's wedding. They were at the airport for the time the plane was supposed to take off but forgot about being there early for boarding, lol :) Thankfully they got another flight and made it on time for the wedding :)
ReplyDeleteGreat use of the letter N!
betty
It could be a good ice breaker. I assume that your son has not made that mistake again. :)
DeleteIf you are keeping score based on the number of things you have not done, I scored a 3. I never missed a flight, lived alone or drunk dialed an ex.
ReplyDeleteI have 5 things I have not done on that list. That either makes me a winner or a loser against you depending if we're counting up or down. It's kind of confusing to me.
DeleteI've never played the game, but I love your rebranding of "bribe".
ReplyDeleteWhen my kids were very small, I said that I didn't like bribing them to do things (or to stop). A friend said that it's not bribing. It's just what you have to do sometimes.
DeleteThose were some revealing answers. I would have left my cloths on too at the skinny dipping party. Living alone does have it's benefits. I like the "behavior modification." That does sound much better.
ReplyDeleteI didn't want to reveal too much, so I left some of the questions off. :)
DeleteI've never played the game. I'd have a lot of nevers. I think I'm a fairly boring person.
ReplyDeleteI'm a boring person, too. I'm older than you so I've had more time to change my list of nevers.
DeleteNever have I ever...played this game! But, my daughter says she has played it when she was in high school and they got to eat a piece of candy if they have done whatever it was that the person said she hasn't done. :)
ReplyDeleteI like this as a candy game better than a drinking game!
DeleteFun! I've never missed a flight, drunk-dialed anyone (never been drunk ....), broken a bone or been on a yacht. I've definitely been lost in Canada before which IS a foreign country, although we forget that at times. I remember playing this game in middle and high school. A fun riff on it is the Two Truths and a Lie game, where you tell, yes, two true things about yourself as well as one lie and people have to guess which one is the lie.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing Two Truths and a Lie is probably not a drinking game. If you were tipsy, I think it would be hard to keep your thoughts straight for that game. :)
