What's on your un-bucket list?

freshpopcorn

Basically what are the things you've done that you'd never do again?

One for me would be swimming. I wasn't gone on it as a child and tried again as an adult and didn't enjoy it then either.

Eating eggs. Never again.

patmahe

Eating in KFC anywhere ever.

Actually on a more serious note I'm never over-ruling my gut instinct again, its there for a reason.

Skydiving. Great adrenaline rush, but the old ticker isn't up to a repeat.

Autecher

Smiling. I did it once and have regretted it ever since.

Visiting Cork.

Harry Potter ride in Universal Orlando. I did it back in 12 and got sick and thought it was me and again in 17 and everyone on our group got sick

uch

Rub Witch Hazel on me Ringpiece, thought it was a good idea for a scaldy ring but turns out it's like dipping yer hole into a 45 gallon barrel of battery acid

To see a tornado...a proper one in tornado alley

Sorry but this made me laugh I was expecting something like cage diving with Sharks or Sky diving, but swimming is so normal it's weird

Thelonious Monk

Conall Cernach

Paragliding. First 2 minutes is "Wahooo!!!!!" like a rollercoaster ride but then the next half hour is "here I am hanging by a few thin strings a thousand feet above the ground".

Tell me how

Paintballing.

5 hours total on site.
Total of 40 Minutes paintballing with the rest of the time spent waiting for staff to organise things or 'strategy breaks'
Staff direction consisted of telling everyone to keep firing, keep firing, keep firing....and selling 100 pellets for a tenner
All staff seemed to have military-man-syndrome and expected visitors to act like first day recruits.
Onsite shop facilities included option for a can of coke for €3 or a Mars Bar for €2

That was my second time trying it, first included the 'commander' wearing sunglasses (on a wet October day in Mayo) telling one of the visitors that he was out of the game because he was not paying attention when the commander was talking.

Great idea, twice fell wayyy short of expectations for me.

Shaving my legs.

Going to nightclubs.

Taking the contraceptive pill.

Ice skating.

Watching Sex And The City.

Eating sprouts. Every fcuking Christmas til I was about 12 eating little slimy balls of fart. And then you get older and people are like "Oh you'll like them the way I do them, sprouts can be lovely. All you have to do is soak them in cider and cover them in bacon and stuff them with cranberries, I mean once you cover up every trace of the actual taste of sprouts they're soooooo tasty!" GET ****ED I'M NOT EATING THEM.

The Late Late Show

Things I've never done and never want to: gambling, smoking, going out of my way to listen to bad modern so-called original music, deliberately watching reality TV.
Things I've done and never want to do again: watching British soaps, going out to bad pubs, going out of my way for users.

Waterskiing-the ache in the thigh muscles after.

Rally Driving-kickback of steering wheel nearly broke my thumb.

However, having one go at something is never a way to judge how it will be. First time up on an airplane was in a gale on a Cessna 172 when I was 14. I was terrified, and after it obsessed over how scared I had been. When you started earning and turned 19 I went out to Airfield and learned to fly small aircraft solo and in some interesting weather conditions too!

messrs

Went on a jet ski once ( only as a passenger) in Puerto Rico - would never do that again, was so terrified

Going to Venice and try to shuffle along being jostled by the thousands of tourist spewed into the city by humongous liners . It might be lovely but they have ruined it by allowing far too many in at a time

Crowds and weather can ruin holiday experiences.

I remember we arrived in Bergen and Innsbruck first day in both it pi*sed rain and was cold with visibility a few feet. Following day was glorious weather and the majestic beauty of both locations was evident the minute you looked out window..of course had I only experienced the first day I would have been disappointed.

Best to avoid Italy in summer or major holidays. Visiting Rome in early January is perfect, weather is nice and no crowds anywhere. Venice not sure as I visited in June but crowds weren't too bad

Had to make a special effort to make sure I avoided any small spillover from Heather Small at EP last year. I don't react well.

Prague.
Can't understand the love for the place, tourist infested (this was in low season), dour cafe and store assistants, heaps of homeless, edgy after dark, most everywhere stank of weed, B.O. and piss. The entire apartment block where my accom was located stank of weed from top to bottom.

Oslo, looked well but cold and ridiculously expensive.

I kinda feel the same about London, I don't understand why so many Irish people gravitate towards it, was there two weeks ago for work, hadn't been there in years and remembered why, it's a sh*thole, there are dozens of better cities in Europe.

Prague, nice city but that old eastern block charisma lingers on.
A bit like Eir employees coming to do an installation.
You can dress them up as a new private enterprise but underneath they still have Dept. of Posts and Telegraphs work attitudes

I agree with you on this. People say "Oh the non-touristy part is great, though"

No it isn't. I spent a couple of months there doing a short exchange in college, living in a student residence/ Commie block in Hostivar. I have never been to such a miserable place in my life, and I am very well acquainted with Athlone.

Have you ever gotten the " why didn't you ask them to come out and fix the line" upon revealing to the technician that your a Vodafone customer?

As if to pretend eircom didn't have a monopoly on the infrastructure maintenance.

Czechs are the coldest people on the planet.
