wild animals… all of them.
i will not touch them, will not interact with them, etc…
i enjoy seeing them (they are cute, majestic, etc.), but i leave them the fuck alone.
You want to share want happened?
Electricity. I got a very mild shock once and decided I just don’t ever want to fuck with it in a way that will kill/maim/injure me.
Drinking alcohol while taking medication I was not supposed to drink alcohol with. Was a fun night until the alcohol poisoning happened at least!
I did that unfortunately it wasn’t even fun

Electricity, crossing the street not in designated place, reading instructions on household chemicals, eating raw food, eating unripe fruits. Basically everything that we teach children not to do. 🙃

I’m 24, mummy and daddy can’t stop me trying this stuff again!
Oh, that’s why they taught me not to do that stuff!
Jumping off cliffs into water.
Broke my back. Never jumping off anything again. Very lucky didn’t get paralyzed. 9 months physical therapy and still weird random pains 2 decades later
Oh wow
Living creatures.
When I was a small child like 4 or 5ish I poked a cat in the eye (dont recall if intentionally) and he scratched my face immediately. That day I learned what karma was. Always believe that if Hurt someone or something they may hurt you. That’s why I give snickers to the crazies at work.
Heroin. My childhood friend’s mum let him try some when he was about 13. By 15 he was tricking for smack. By 17 he’d got AIDS and died from suicide. I supposed I watched my friend find out, but his mother really ruined his life.
What the fuck is this story? Why on earth would any mother give her 13 year old child fucking heroin?
I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that if mom had heroin lying around, her judgement was probably jeopardized already.
Mother was definitely on the heroin.
Lmao people who grew up super sheltered have such problems of imagination, especially when it comes to drugs. The fear is always stupid shit like "if you touch a dollar bill that had fentanyl come near it at one point you’ll start convulsing on the floor and need 50 doses of Narcan to survive!’ instead of the total collapse of society that happens in communities where drugs take root.
Riding a motorcycle.

I don’t begrudge anybody who chooses to partake. I, personally, managed to accomplish my lifetime’s allotment of drinking before my 33rd birthday and had the unfortunate experience of “finding out”.

Fucking around a little is alright but more can go wrong quickly

Geysers.
I stuck a finger in a geyser-adjacent hot spring to see how hot the water was, and my finger burned for three days. Don’t fuck around with geysers, y’all.
Condoms and safety pins
They are supposed to fit tight enough to not need pinning.
Ha, nice one.
Brilliant.
Well look at Paul Bunyan over here
Fly casting? Whatever the fuck it’s called when you’re fishing without a reel on the line, so you gotta whip it around in the air to get enough momentum on it to cast. Good way to lose a fuckin’ eye. I know; cuz I’ve seen it happen to another kid in the scouts when we used these kinds of poles.
Even with a reel, casting a line or being near somebody casting a line makes me anxious every time
I’ve inhales acid fumes a couple times and every time it’s a hard lesson to not do whatever I just did. Unfortunately it’s a pretty common hazard in my line of work.
