I'm making a list of things every person needs to have experienced at least once in order to have completely experienced life. They range from sappy to terrible, are in no particular order, and come principally from my own life experiences or from that of my wife.
The list of things to do:
Leave the country, live outside of it for a while if you can.
Quit a job the same day you're hired.
Get into a toy sword fight with a sibling or loved one.
Hit someone squarely between the eyes with a Nerf dart.
Go on a binge of self-indulgence.
Treat your friends to a meal.
Let your friends treat *you* to a meal.
Own a ridiculous combination of video games.
Be picky.
Be a complete animal in bed.
Be romantic and tender in bed.
Try and do both at once; if you succeed tell me how.
Develop a crush on a fictional character.
Think of who was best to you in life and reward them.
Think of who was worst to you in life and get even.
Own a cat, earn its respect.
Don't own a dog, earning its respect is way too easy.
Live in a basement.
Work from home.
Talk to a horse like it could understand you perfectly; make note of how attentively they listen.
Talk to a cat like it could understand you perfectly; make note of how quickly you get ignored.
Get into excellent shape and keep yourself that way.
Flip the bird to someone deserving.
Take a nap at 7:00pm in the evening; wake up in the dead of night and savor the disorientation.
Watch people.
Take a day off from your job for the hell of it; ensure your excuse is untruthful and lame.
More will come later. Feel free to add to the list in the comments.
