[Cadaverous Pallor]

It seems to me a lot of what we're talking about here has very little to do with adventurousness. I don't find it adventurous to listen to a song someone wants me to hear, no matter the genre. Worst case scenario is that I don't like it. I may have to say "that's not my thing". How is that adventurous?

Tangentially, a person that actually enjoys various kinds of music isn't adventurous to me. If they have an appreciation for many different genres then that comes naturally to them and isn't an adventure at all.

Why is piercing/tattooing adventurous? Either you want a piercing or you don't. I guess you could make a case for a careless teen getting something they'll regret later. I would say that that's not adventurous, that's just a bad decision.

I'll watch any movie you want me to try - at least for a while. I'll try almost any food (can I exclude things like haggis and prairie oysters without being called a wuss?). I'll travel most anywhere (again within reason). I wouldn't say that this is adventurous in the slightest.

So what IS adventure? Adventure is climbing Everest or investing everything you have in your own business or working with the Peace Corp in a 3rd world country where children die every day (I have a coworker who did that last one - too much adventure for her, she came home).

I can't believe that "trying new music" is listed as adventurous. The way I see it, nearly all of us were born normal and boring and so we shall live for the rest of our days.
