Lawdog Dago Dom Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 We all know the "bucket list" is places to see, things to do, etc, before kicking the bucket. So what's the opposite? I propose a "chuck it list." Things you would never, ever do, eat, visit, etc, ever again. Who has a "chuck it" entry to share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joke 'um Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Never: - visit Pakistan - eat, or watch someone eat, balut pinoy - ride your unfared motorcycle from Redding, CA, to Bend, OR, starting at 10 pm the night before Thanksgiving. Other than that, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Joker Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Balut is a 3 beers in 10 minutes thing. If you down 3 in 10 it seems like a good idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I don’t think I have a chuck-it list. I’m curious by nature, and even if a place or experience is unpleasant, there are still things to be learned from it. And I like learning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I guess I kind of have a “Chuck It” list but I also have a “F*** That!” list of things I will definitely never do. The list includes things that many people like and enjoy. I prefer not to list them because it seems whenever I have brought these up to others (not here but with family and acquaintances) I have managed to tick someone off or hurt some feelings.

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Things to never do again...? For starters: Sit across the table from someone eating a balut. Cannibal!! Ride down California Street in San Francisco in a 1962 Buick without verifying the sobriety of the driver. Marry a nurse. Or anyone of any other profession, for that matter.

Singin' Sue 71615 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I have to agree with Pat... I have a (and I don't use that word) list.. I have not been anywhere I would not give a second try. But, I will NEVER Jump from a perfectly functioning aircraft. Repell from a cliff for fun. Jump off ANYTHING attached to a bungy. You get the idea...

Raylan Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Never get married again (3 times is enough for one lifetime); never eat eggs again (I love them but they don't love me anymore); never have a pet snake; never vote for someone with a D after their name; never darken the door of several businesses again; never use Fakebook again.

Smokin Gator SASS #29736 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Never go to Disneyland! We've done it a couple of times when the kids were little. I am amazed at the number of adults that love that place, with some going there every vacation. For a week, with no kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weirdness oozes out of the walls at that place! Back in the 80s, we toured Falling Water (FLW house near Connellsville, PA). Back then, they weren't so tweaky about "stay on the trail", so I got down in the creek to get the waterfall shot. Today... we visited again in 2017. all regimented now.. big tourist center, massive high prices, food gouging.. ad nauseum. For me, this ranks right up there with Disneyworld Orlando, as a "chucket" item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
