I accept your challenge, and am proud to say that in addition to avoiding the aforementioned hot garbage, I have never seen a twilight movie or read a twilight book.

I have been to at least one Flames game every season (with the exception of the '04/'05 lockout) since 1998.

I have never tried smoking and have not touched alcohol since 1999.

I have never had a cup of coffee.

I have been to at least one Flames game during every season they have been in Calgary.

I have never smoked a cigarette.

I have never used any illegal drugs.

I have never texted anyone.

I don't have a facebook page.

I've only been on a plane about 25 times but I too share that streak. YVR to England being my record. I've never once even left my seat on a flight.

I don't know if I'm proud of these things, but to most, they seem unusual.

-Never had a cup of coffee
-Never bought a lottery ticket
-Never smoked a cigarette

I did a streak of 14 months without a bite of fast food. That was disappointing to break.

I've never drank
Never had a cup of coffee
Never had a cigarette
Never done illegal drugs other than the occasional blunt
Never popped a zit on purpose
Never have taken more than one punch to knockout an opponent
Never fought in my life
I'm a compulsive liar
And only the first 5 things were true

I prefering talking to a live voice over a phone.

I just wish people could see how much of an addiction it has become for a lot of people.

Really dion? Texting is an addiction? How is texting any different than calling someone?

Oh, texting is an addiction. Many people can't stop themselves from always checking for text messages, and if they hear that little beep they have to check in case it's important. I don't know how you define addiction, but I agree with Dion.

So is answering the phone or the door an addiction too or do you make a habit of ignoring those as well. How about eating when you're hungry??

Habit? yes, addiction? no

My body runs hot all the time. I have a much higher cold tolerance than anyone I know. So when I'm thirsty, I want a cold drink, not something that has to sit for 5 minutes before I can blow on it to take a sip. I don't drink tea or hot chocolate either.

I'm also a morning person and have no need for caffeine.

Yup. I bet the same pleasure centers that fire in your brain when you play VLTs are involved.

So you're one of those guys that walks around with the occasional massive bulging whitehead that guys like me stare at the whole time with intrigue, just thinking "Pop it! POP IT!"

I'm the opposite. It could be a mosquito bite, but just in case, I'll try pop it. So satisfying.

Obviously you don't experience TPS (Travel Poop Syndrome). Every trip to Europe it will take me about 3 days after the flight until I poop again. Even then, the first couple are just deer pellets.

Watch people for awhile and see what they do. People get into their vehicles and more often than not they start checking for text messages so they can respond. At red lights people pull out thier phones and check for messages. People texting while out for dinner with thier friend or partner. Checking for texts while a movie is on and leaving to respond. I hope you see a pattern here.

It becomes an obcession where people are afraid to turn off thier phones for fear of missing a text.
