Over the years I have seen various comments on here from people that have never seen or done something that caused a raised eyebrow. Many times entirely justifiable (if you are living in some poor tropical country you likely don't have the funds to go fly on a plane to see a mountain and thus some snow) but still amusing to see.
What thing do you imagine others take for granted then have you never seen, eaten, experienced, owned or the like?
Never seen snow is a good example, never seen the sea, never eaten meat (or a type of it -- I am always stunned that so many Americans have never eaten lamb), never seen an animal that I eat (you don't have to be a "meat comes from a packet" type but I have met those that have never seen various animals they regularly eat in the flesh, or might only have when going by in a car at high speed), never eaten certain popular fruits/vegetables, same for never picked any fruit/vegetables, I do wonder how long it will be before "never used a PC" is a thing around here, never watched broadcast TV might also be one before too long (I must have installed at least 20 TVs over the last few years, and I am by no means a TV installer, that are "I only want to watch netflix/youtube"), never been to the cinema is a possibility for many (it has been years since I have), never been to the countryside is one I have met a few times now (and friends have ever more fun stories for when they run camps), never held/fired a gun, never ridden a push bike, never gutted a fish, never used a power tool, never gone swimming, I have met those that would claim to have never read a book, alcohol is a fun one even not counting the various religions that don't care for it, never baked a cake, never driven a car, never been on a boat, never used a credit/debit card, never seen a dead body (though depending upon where you are in the world that might not be a common thing these days at all)... hopefully you get the idea. You don't have to limit yourself to those.
