The "Never Have I Ever" Meme

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

Used "ee-moe-gees". [Just the way he awkwardly does his best to pronounce the word should be evidence enough that the expressive little faces he's seen littering the network's text chats are completely foreign to him!]

[He has to carefully not laugh as he takes his shot, especially since he and Emily are responsible for the emoji plague released upon Hadriel.]

[GLACIUS DOES NOT YET KNOW THAT ACTUALLY though once he got over his confusion he'd probably be quietly impressed that someone that seems as young as Chris was able to program such a thing! Instead he gives Chris A Look, catching that hastily-stifled laugh.] Yes yes, very funny human. Being a stranger in a city populated mostly by one outside species is not so easy!

[His slightly delicate ego would totally appreciate that. He grins good-naturedly at Glacius' comment.]

Hey, emojis aren't speciesist; you're totally welcome to use them you know.

But... why... and how. [He just. Doesn't get it. He doesn't even know how to make them pop up in text, it's not a thing he's ever considered doing!]

They're fun, and they kind of express things it'd be weird or hard to say in words? Like a thumb's up or whatever.

[He will totally teach you if you want to learn.]

What is a... "thumb's up". [SO MUCH SQUINTING. Be careful about volunteering yourself, Chris, he clearly has a lot to learn.]

[Chris is very patient so it's all good.]

Oh, uh, like this.

[He gives a thumbs up.]

I'm guessing it's just a human thing, but it's like uh... Encouragement or approval?

[Glacius watches Chris perform the gesture very, very carefully... and then attempts to emulate it. The only problem? The unique structure of his hands, with two fingers and two thumbs each. He extends one and then the other, tilting his hand various ways, before looking up to Chris for guidance. Help him do like a human!] Ah, which should I..?

[ that did not make her smile and chuck a shot back or anything ] What? They're useful.

For what? Can you not express yourself? [Asks the ice alien whose face normally looks so impassive it can be hard to get a read on him.]

Edited 2016-05-23 03:36 (UTC)

[ I mean she has like three facial expressions and a deadpan sense of humour so... ] No.

Oh. [Glacius pauses, thinking about it. He supposes he can't really speak, can he? Given his lack of recognizable features--particularly a mouth--most humans find him hard to read, and the fact that he usually keeps what he's feeling inside himself does not help.] I suppose I am not... all that different. But that is because I do not to give myself away so easily, so why would I do that with little faces?

Y'know not every conversation needs repression. [ KATE YOU ARE THE LAST PERSON TO BE GIVING ADVICE ABOUT THAT. ] Makes you seem more personable.

[Not drinking.]

I'm with you on this one. Foolish things.

Wow bro what'd emojis ever do to you?

[So rude!!! Only he's not actually offended but still.]

I fail to see the point in them.

[At least he's honest.]

Well, okay, fair enough; most of the time they're pointless. But sometimes, like, whatever you're trying to say just doesn't work in words very well, and an emoji's better.

You could simply speak to them face-to-face. Or use the communicators to call them. They are wonderful devices in that sense.

I dunno about you but I am so not bothering to call someone just to stick my tongue out at them or something.

If you cannot be bothered to call them for that, then is it really worth doing at all?

[THE NO FUN POLICE ARE HERE, EVERYONE.]

I do not even... why not just say what you mean? Or make the face yourself? I suppose some of them do look rather foolish... humans attempting to save face, perhaps?

[Drinks.]

You downloaded the ones we made, right? We'll make more if people ask for more. Then you can check this one off your 'never' list.

You? You made those? But--but how??

I drew them, Chris coded them. Don't ask me more than that, though. He's the technogeek.
