Things you never got into
 
And I'm not talking about cigars. I'm talking about fads, music, movies, cultural phenomena, etc.

In my case, I never got into James Bond movies. I have never seen a James Bond movie. I have never had the "who was the best James Bond" argument. I am so NOT into James Bond that I didn't realize the Austin Powers was a parody of James Bond, until someone explained Alotta Vagina/***** Galore to me.

So, what things have passed you by, and you never felt compelled to jump on the bandwagon?

Ohhh good one...I never got into tats either...

Interesting post concept!
:tu

Dress to impress and fake it 'til you make it attitudes have always been my least two desirables as well as those who reward those with those "qualities". Probably just another reason why I'll never make it in the "big time".

I've never been a big sports fan, I have interest just not of fanatical magnitude and I've never been much of a gamer since "Wolfenstein" fit on a floppy.

Re: Things you never got into
 
Ooh, some good ones. I've never gotten "drink till you puke" drunk. I was never a heavy drinker in college, and even now, if I have more than one drink in a month, it's a lot for me.

No tattoos or piercings for me.

Loved star wars 4-6, never got into the new ones.

Liked Indiana Jones 1 & 3, hated Temple of Doom. Haven't seen Crystal Skull.

Never got into "fantasy" sports.

No drugs for me either.

I got sucked into Survivor Season I. Never got into Big Brother or any of the other ones. Sometimes I will watch a few minutes of Surreal Life to see who's going to make a drunken ass of themselves.

Re: Things you never got into
 
The big thing that kept me from drinking too much was working as a bartender. When you see what alcohol does to people who abuse it, it keeps you far away from the stuff.

I once saw a "Magic: The Gathering" tournament on ESPN. It was hilarious to me. Multiple camera angles, breathless, golf-style announcers ...

And now Jim, Walker has to make a clever move here, and OH! He whips out his Palladin with double damage points ... a bold gambit, indeed.

For the record, I've never played any of those games, so what I said probably makes no sense.

I had quite the initial reaction to that, Joe...but then I realized that's the reaction most people give me when I tell them I've never seen any of the Star Wars movies.

Network TV shows. All network TV shows.

Pro sports - football, basketball, baseball, golf, etc.

I enjoy collegiate sports of all kinds, but even after going to live events/matches/games in various cities (all as gifts), the make-money-at-this angle just doesn't interest me.

Goes double for "pro wrestling"--I'd take four days of nonstop Lifetime weepy movies back-to-back before enduring an hour of pro wrestling. :tu

I never got into hunting of any kind. I have fired guns before, so that's not it. The main thing is I can't see myself waiting for what could be hours for a chance to shoot an unarmed animal with a high powered firearm.
