Friday question Not From the Book of Questions You wouldn't be caught dead, where?
On a karaoke stage. Ever.

Bearwife stole my answer. Seriously.

So...At any sort of fight...boxing, MMA, etc. Brutality isn't entertaining.

Both of those things. I'm not sure there's enough booze in this town to make me sing in public, and while I see the sporting aspect of boxing and other fight sports, it just doesn't appeal to me in the slightest.

Also, caving. Noooooooooope. I'm happy climbing, or absailing, or whatever, and I'm not particularly claustrophobic, but the idea of getting trapped or hurt in a cave freaks me out.

Playing a competitive sport. It's been almost exactly 36 years since anybody's been able to force me to do that.

Any building with Trump in it.

I did karaoke -- it was fun. For me it would be attending any professional or semi-professional sport events. I can count on one hand the number of kid/high school/college ones I've gone too and unless kidlet decides to play something, I don't see that changing.

Anywhere too high up, too closed in, or too deep down. My fears are vast and varied!

I did caving back in my youth. It was great fun. But, now, when I think about all the insanely tight crawls I put myself through, my newly-found claustrophobic self shudders in absolute panic. There's no way in hell you'd get me back into some of those holes. Luckily, there are plenty of perfectly safe wild caves out there for you to walk upright through.

In an office cubicle. Not enough free donuts in the world.

Necrophilia convention.
You know, people saving it up for conventions--

Well I hope that I don't die in my office cubicle.

yeah, octothorpe, I wouldn't much like to die in my classroom either, memorable as it might be for the kiddies--

Any loud, noisy music club, with heavy metal or what have you. Bonus points for heavy crowds. Yowsa. Not.

Ha. If you count an Olympic wrestling event as a fight, I think I've done everything listed here, minus Trump. Oh, and necrophilia.
