Never have I ever been stung by a bee, wasp or hornet. I'm not scared of bees either, ill walk right up to them and check em out. I've grabbed bees and pulled them out of water, I've let them trot all over me and I don't mind, neither do they.

meta: I think you should invert the rules, so that if you have done it, you downvote. The winner with the most votes is then the rarest of them all

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

If you have done it you upvote. If you have not done it you downvote.

The point is to be the person with the most upvotes because you've not done a thing that most people have done.

That's what OP is saying. The wording could be clearer.

Essentially, if you can relate to what the comment says, then downvote.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Can someone explain this to me?

if you have done that thing, upvote it. If you have not done that thing, downvote it.

So if someone says "never have I ever eaten food", then I, a food eater, upvote it, right?

I think you and I share the same mind, but different eyes.

If someone says "I never shot a hippo", then right now I will down vote (because I haven't shot a hippo), so then if it gets upvoted.....

OHhhhhh. It just clicked for me. Yep, you're right. It makes sense

~~Either my reading comprehension has been turned to dust or you didnt read it~~

2: Read the other posts, if you have done that thing, upvote it.

~~As in: Upvote, I have not done that thing~~

Edit: Seems like I can't read. I think it's called double negation?

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

The problem is that the "thing" is either:

  • never have I ever done this or

Never have I ever eaten lobster
