Name a common item you've never had any use for |
|
I have never in my life owned an umbrella, and I lived in England for many years. Rain absolutely does not bother me.

1. I don't own an umbrella, either. |
|
Nor do I wear a watch. I do own one, I just don't wear it.

22. I don't have or use most the stuff posted so far |
|
no microwave, no cell, no electric can opener, no watch no ironing board or iron, no toaster. I have an umbrella, but it went missing years ago, and I live in Seattle. No automatic transmission, no radio or music in my car. No shoe horn either, I use the dryer a little, but mostly hang stuff to dry. I have no blender This computer-only had it a year and a half, and I don't own it.
I'm sure there's more, but I'm just getting ready to churn the butter for tomorrow...:)

Although it seems my stepdaughter's grandma is going to give us one as a gift shortly. Barring that, the MPAA and their regions and encryption and DMCA can kiss my fat, hairy arse.
By the way, no, no DVD reader at the PC either.

The whole business of nail painting doesn't hold up well under a cost/benefit analysis, IMO. Plus, polish makes my fingers feel like they have small weights attached to the ends.

I don't have a lawn, and I hate bedroom slippers--they make my feet sweat. If my feet are cold, I just put on socks.
