witty title goes here.


Never Have I Ever, for those of you haven't heard of it, is a classic drinking game. Individuals take turns stating something they've never done, and everyone who has done it takes a drink. And then embarrassment and teasing and general fun is had by all.


HOW THIS WORKS

✔ Post with your character. This is your thread for as many 'Never have I ever' statements you'd like to make!
✔ Under your own thread, reply to yourself ICly with a statement of something your character has never done.
✔ Post as many 'nevers' as you like, but each 'never' should be it's own comment string, under your character's thread.
✔ Other characters reply to whichever 'nevers' they like, drinking or not drinking as appropriate.
✔ Optional rule: If you drink, you have to explain the situation in which the 'never' occurred!
✔ Another optional rule: Forced honestly is okay, if you have a character that wouldn't talk/share anything.
✔ Threadjacking is encouraged! Particularly if it's to make fun of someone for their answer/drinking.
✔ HAVE FUN PEOPLE

Aren't you a doctor?

[personal profile] drabsolutelynot 2017-10-06 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Why ask questions you already know the answer to?
tongueamok: (➣ neither time nor interest)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose because I expect better from someone in your position.
drabsolutelynot: (LtBs forward)

[personal profile] drabsolutelynot 2017-10-06 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I apologize that you were raised believing doctors aren't also human.
tongueamok: (➣ i said i'd consider it)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I simply expect you to hold yourself to a higher standard.
drabsolutelynot: (park pensive)

[personal profile] drabsolutelynot 2017-10-06 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
It seems more like you expect people to cater to your expectations.

A slip of judgement, particularly one that is God-induced, does not negate over 40 years in the medical profession. But that idea requires more insight to digest than 'this person is weak or bad'.
tongueamok: (➣ not making a habit of it)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I never said you were weak or bad. I said I expected better of people in certain positions. Then again, I expect better of everyone in this godforsaken cave, and I have been let down time and time again.

Can I ask what your version of 'better' would look like? For the cave, I mean?
tongueamok: (➣ i'd rather not)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
People keeping the intimate details of their personal relations off the network, for one.

Why does this specific thing bother you so much?
tongueamok: (➣ decisions decisions)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Why doesn't it bother you? Or anyone with any sense of morality? Of knowing what should be one's own business?
drabsolutelynot: (stern phone)

[personal profile] drabsolutelynot 2017-10-06 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, which brand of morality are you talking about? Religious? Cultural? Societal?

[Rosen has a guess]
tongueamok: (➣ but where are they now)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
All of them.

[They're all pretty tied together in his neck of the woods.]
drabsolutelynot: (LtB forward lean in)

[personal profile] drabsolutelynot 2017-10-06 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, in the sense of morality I would most readily ascribe to, showing kindness and compassion towards others comes before judgement. So maybe asking 'why' this person felt the need to share that information. Maybe they are secretly hoping for someone to help them or talk things through with them. Maybe they feel alone.

Now of course there is always the chance that the person just likes the sound of their own voice, but assuming that is, at least in my opinion, careless.
tongueamok: (➣ that's just how it was)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
If they want to talk about it with someone, there are always people willing to listen.
drabsolutelynot: (Doc)

[personal profile] drabsolutelynot 2017-10-06 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Some people are shy or embarrassed to want help. Others feel like they never got attention in their lives so even negative attention is at least attention.
tongueamok: (➣ none of my business)

[personal profile] tongueamok 2017-10-06 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
If they're so shy, then they ought not be talking about what they do behind closed doors on the network.
drabsolutelynot: (half smile)

[personal profile] drabsolutelynot 2017-10-06 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Repressed societies are a hell of a thing aren't they?]

Maybe so.
