Things I Have Never Done

Never sent a text message
Never owned (or even used) an Apple product
Never digitally downloaded music or movies or tv shows
Never seen a Facebook page
Never visited the ebay website

So am I hopefully out of touch with modern society? Am I a weirdo, just old fashioned, or a hopleless dinosaur headed for extinction? Or do I simply find other outlets (like 2 + 2) to waste my time

Re: Things I Have Never Done

The last four are okay but never having sent a text message is weird.

Not only have I never sent a text message, I've never owned a cell phone.

Re: Things I Have Never Done

Never have watched any of these.

Any of the Die Hards
Any of the terminators
None of the Harry Potters
None of the Batmans
None of the Transformers (and i loved transformers as a kid )


Something about me is off , for not having any interest in those or any of the many more i havent listed.

the text msg thing I can understand
apple sucks (except ipod & Iphones), IMO
I haven't downloaded any music, movies, or shows since I was caught
facebook was cool, but is slowly become more and more boring for me
ebay is the ****! you ****ing weirdo (JKing)

I think if you are over the age of 50 not having done this stuff isn't to crazy. 90% sure my mom hasn't done any except the texting, which she is awful at.

I think the ebay thing is weirder than the text message thing. I was on ebay for years before I ever texted.

Never owned a cell phone. Never owned...a cell....phone. I'm sorry, this just isn't processing. I'll try again later.

Die Hard, Terminator and The Dark Knight will always be worth watching.

Don't get me wrong. I was playing on Planet Poker before anyone ever heard of internet poker I have never conformed to the whole cellphone/smartphone craze though. I often forget to bring my cellphone with me. Ebay, Facebook etc just offer no interest to me at all?
