“Once Was Enough Forever”: 23 ‘Anti-Bucket List’ Things People Swear Never To Do Again

Hopefully chemotherapy.

Buy a place with an HOA .. if I do that again. Someone kick me. Hard.
It wouldn't so bad if they weren't such *a*s-douches*.

Date a man that follows Andrew Tate and his comrades in misogyny. The men's rights online coalition and ideology is a problem for all genders.

Go to disney - OMG what a waste of time and money.

Assume that every co worker is a friend.

Attend a massive event. I was at Obama's inauguration in 2008, I went to college nearby and thought it would be cool to be a part of. It was freezing cold, and many people weren't ready for that. I was, but I wasn't ready for the realities of 2.5 million people descending on a city with a population of 600k. No food, no water, no restrooms, no shelter, no room to move at all, nowhere to sit down after hours on end of standing and walking. Trash everywhere, subway stations were a claustrophobic's nightmare, people were fainting from dehydration. I ended up walking over 4 miles over the Potomac to Virginia to catch a train home. Ended up being an exhausting 12 hour day. It's cool to say I was there but I'll never put myself in a crowd that size again.

I live in LA so I have routine access to Universal, Disney, Six Flags, Knotts, etc.

I will never go to a park in the summer.

It's 100F. Kids aren't in school so it's packed. You stand in the sun for hours for a 30 second ride.

My dad is coming this weekend and wanted to go to Disney. I flat out refused. We'll go in November.

I will never have another wedding in my life. If my husband and I divorced, I’m positive I would stay single. I’m not expecting to divorce him. But if I did, I don’t ever want to try it again. One and done. If it doesn’t work with him, I won’t bother ever trying again.

Spend time trying to get people to see why I'm worthwhile to be friends with.

Hostels! I'm very glad they exist as cheap options for young people, exactly how I experienced them, but I'm now happy to close that chapter of my life lol. Extra privacy, extra cleanliness, and extra comfort are vastly more worth it to me now and fortunately I can afford that!

Outdoor music festivals where you camp. My husband and I went to Sweetwater in Atlanta 2 years ago (when it was still cool) and it ruined other fests for me. We got to go see music all day long, then go back to the hotel and shower and actually SLEEP at the end of the day. I didn't realize how old I had become until I vowed to never sleep on the ground in the mud in a tent again.

New York City on New Years Eve.

Dating a woman who says she loves you 4 days into the relationship. To any guy or girl reading this, please use it as a warning. The only thing that’ll come out of a relationship like that is trouble.

Mardi Gras and the Kentucky Derby. Everyone should do them once but if you do them more than once something is wrong with you.

Polyamory. I barely dipped my toe in and got burnt real bad. I'm good to not try that again.

Get a puppy. I love this little demon but I’m not doing this again. I’ll adopt some 7 year old lazy mutt.

I once tried to impress a date by ordering the spiciest dish on the menu. I'll never again pretend my taste buds can handle what they clearly can't. Lesson learned: ghost peppers aren't a substitute for personality!

Get pregnant.

Labor's not so bad, I can do that. It's the 9 months before and the 4 years after that I won't do again for love nor money.

A cruise. Average to below average food, watered down drinks, claustrophobic on the ship, contributing to an ecological nightmare, crammed in a boat with hundreds if not thousands of other people, stressful suboptimal excursions...an overall expensive nightmare I have no desire to ever repeat.

Accidentally eat poorly cooked chicken teriyaki in a strange city far from home the night before an early flight.
