You know that face your friend makes when you tell them you haven't tried a certain type of ice-cream? Or when you reveal that you haven't done something that the majority of people consider to be the most ordinary things? Well, prepare to make that face yourself as we dive deep into the list of the most basic things some people have never tried in their lifetime, and some are even secretly proud of it. From never biting on a pear to never learning how to ride a bicycle, some people are really doing the opposite of living life on the edge. This Bored Panda challenge invites you to write down the things you haven't tried and to add them to our post!

Scroll down to read these confessions, and don't forget to tell us what you think in the comments!

I'm astounded that Game of Thrones and Walking Dead have been lumped together with Twilight. I guess if fantasy/sci fi aren't your thing they just aren't your thing!

Game of Thrones was great until season 6, then they screwed up quite a lot. I was also avoiding Game of Thrones until 2015, where one of my friends urged me to watch it, I was hesitant, very hesitant, but once I started I binge watched the first 5 seasons in like two weeks. Walking Dead same, but I stopped at season 3, but I never got involved much into it. Never watched any Twilight movie.

It's so annoying when people think they have sophisticated taste just because they don't watch what's popular. You do realize that by choosing not to watch something because it's popular, you're doing the exact same thing as people who only watch popular shows. (Spooky voice) You're one of the masses tooooooooo!

You added "sophisticated". Why do you assume you know what I think? None of those are my preferred genre.

Moi aussi to the first two. And unfortunately i did see one of the Twilight films ONLY because I’d walked into the wrong cinema at the multiplex— so I endured through it with the sea of prepubescent girls ... it was filmed here in Vancouver BC — so that was about the most interesting thing about that.

Wow, BPs. Stirring up controversy can be a fun exercise in allowing others to reveal how much they - jump to conclusions, speak from immaturity, presume implications that are not said as if they were, judge and/or condemn others for expressing their views that differ from your own. -- Your reactions to my comment speak for themselves.

First off Game of thrones is by far the most addictive TV series I've ever seen or movie I've ever seen in my entire life once you see one episode you are hooked and it's worth watchinbg. it's not like 90210 which was a piece of s*** I can't stand that c**p anyways check it out I'm pretty sure you'll agree with me once you've watched it and there's some sexy sexy women in there and I'm a woman and I do every one of them lots of beautiful naked bodies

Some people enjoy them.. some don't. What I don't understand is how long this has been dragged on and on and on. SOOO many memes about " I've never watched a single episode of Game of Thrones" like it's some right of passage bragging trophy. So you've never watched it? So what. I've never seen the entirety of a single super bowl. No one cares. Carry on watching what you DO love.. no need to brag that you don't watch something popular.

I only own them because my sister's thought I'd like them after I read the books. Needless to say I was disappointed in the first movie didn't have I heart to tell my sisters I didn't like it.

I tried to watch GoT but it was just too boring. I have seen one Twilight movie at a party where everyone was really drunk. I have seen all episodes of The Walking Dead - most of them are horrible but there are some really well made episodes that I have enjoyed very much.

CAROL! Homegirl. I used to HAAATE zombies too. I thought it was the dumbest s**t ever and I just didn’t watch anything related to them. But I tried the walking dead and it was amazing. It’s not just about zombies, and the plot / acting is good. I’ve never seen GoT or Twilight either so I can’t speak for those.

I understand how some people like it. But I've seen 28 Days Later, Night of the Living Dead, and Dawn of the Dead and they all just seemed kinda the same..all gore..same plot. I know they list I Am Legend as a zombie movie..but I kinda thought the 'monsters' in there reminded me more of vampires than zombies. Give me a good ghost/haunting/poltergeist story any day. I'll leave the zombie movies to you guys.
