I've never...

[Longy]

Coffee, tea and to a lesser extent alcohol baffle me tbh. Aren't you in the least bit curious what they are like and why so many people enjoy them on a daily basis?

Are you like this with everything, I would be bored silly if I wasn't trying new experiences regularly.

[cambridgealex]

been to Scunthorpe. I have, however, visited Southampton

Have you ever had enough room in your house for your clothes?

Not sure if hilarious pisstake or I've been whooshed!

I've never had a cup of tea or coffee

Oh fuck off, I just don't believe this.

I believe it. We were given tea and coffee as children, but lots of people my age didn't give to their children. It wasn't really to stop them from ever drinking it; more in the belief that it isn't good for children but they will start drinking it when they get older. There are plenty of young adults now who never got around to trying it when they got older and aren't bothered about doing so.

But, when you were like 14,15,16 didn't you think.. "hmm, all the adult population of the UK drink it, let's try a cup to see what it's like"?

I would totally accept it if you tried it and didn't like it, but to have never tasted tea or coffee is just bizarre.

Nope, those coffee quality street things scared me for life as a kid!

Dad made me a cup of tea when I was about 15 I smelt it, that was as close as it got. Know about 15+ people who have never tried coffee. Reckon there are people on this forum in the same boat!

Mmmm, coffee Quality Street. They don't do them anymore 
When I was little I remember visiting everyone I knew in the New year and looking for their sweetie tin. Jackpot every time! I must be the only person in the world that liked them.

I love coffee sweets and when I can find them, I love chocolate covered roasted coffee beans.

I don't think you can be entirely sure.  My daughter is 5 and she will tell me that she has never had many things, but she has and has just forgotten.  My one year old has definitely tried coffee, admittedly most of it ended up down her front but she definitely tried it.

As others have said, surely you should just try it.  

Never seen The Wire and a whole host of TV shows I'd probably like in the last 5 years or so.  

Never been to a classic horse race or Royal Ascot despite going to the races fairly regularly for 25 years or so.

Never been tempted to support Man U or Liverpool.

Never been in a fan of the English Rugby Union team.  Not sure why this is as Amy other England/GB team I will happily cheer on.

I believe it's a Tinie Tempah (sp?!) Reference? Alex - bit like Grieg but more uptempo.

Yes, for absolute clarity, I wasn't suggesting stato was both extremely rotund and lived in a very small house.

I'm quite capable of getting myself into trouble, thank you. Don't need any help!

Mr Tempah decrees he has so many clothes, he keeps some at his Aunt's house. I imagine she lives locally or that would be a logistical nightmare.

I've never consciously drunk alcohol.

I always add consciously because I once mistakenly picked up someone else's drink (a Bacardi and coke that happened to be next to my coke) and I've had a drink spiked once at Uni by someone who wrongly thought it would be funny.

Spirit of honesty and all that, no pun intended.

I like the lack of reaction to this latest revelation.
The Blonde community has been stunned into silence.

They sound delish! Shame there isn't a mainstream coffee choc.
There are Revels, but you get about two if your lucky and you have to eat the 'orrible orange and raisin ones to get them!

For me it's the fans.

My Dad took me to an England v Ireland game at Twickenham when I was 9 or 10 and even at that age I thought "who are these wankers?" (without using the word wankers because I didn't know it then)

Same reason I can't support the England cricket team (The Barmy Army are worse than the rugby fans) or the England football team.

In fact I surprised myself at the Olympics that I actually rooted for British athletes (apart from the Brownlees obv) because I found the other people cheering them on were agreeable human beings!
