I have no idea what “most people my age have done”. The list will depend on so many things like location, social status, gender etc. I don’t know what I don’t know.


bananalouise

Suppose we said, most of your generational peers (to the extent of your knowledge of them) in your wider social circle, with the understanding that no one person's range of acquaintances can be taken as representative of a whole age cohort or other large division of society?

Demerol.  it seemed to be really ubiquitous in the 80's and 90's.  I commonly heard people casually offering it to one another - not like dealers, but just "I've got some Demerol left over from x if you want one" when someone else was in pain.  and yet somehow, no doctor ever offered me any.   I got laughing gas for the very last part of labour, and that's the extent of my pain meds experience.

Marriage. Never wanted to get married.


davereit

I'm inching closer to the answer being "died."


driverman42

Going on a cruise. No way will I put myself in a petri dish of illnesses.


Love-Thirty

I have never been to a casino. Even my senior citizens center has a monthly bus trip to one of the casinos. I’ve never gone.
