Have you ever...

A time or fifty.

Have you ever "prank-answered" a ringing pay phone? (For example "<ring-ring> <pick up> Incontinence hotline, can you hold?")
 
I grew up on a dairy farm and started driving everything at age 10. They had to add a block on the clutch so I could push it in all the way. Lol

HYE ridden in a semi/lorry/18 Wheeler?
 
Yep, I usually have a garden each year unless I know I will travel a lot. I grew up dirt poor and the only way we got to eat is from having a huge garden and lots of cow's milk! I hated potato soup because we had it so much! still do...lol

Oh, I almost forgot about the chickens we had...lol Lots of eggs too!

HYE-raised chickens?

RSX-11 was the "Assembly Language"/"Machine Language" development environment on the old DEC PDP series of minicomputers. You'd write your code, run it through the assembler,/linker, then run the results. If you screwed something up, you got pointed to a file containing the "core dump" (basically, grab everything in your assigned hunk of memory and turn it into a long string of hexadecimal (or, optionally, octal) numbers so you can start going through it byte-by-byte to figure out what you got wrong) You'd then feed that file to the line-printer, and after collecting the hard-copy, you'd go find a quiet place to alternate between searching for the problem, and crying because you can't find it :)

Yes. I involuntarily eat live ants on a weekly basis. They're everywhere!

HYE caught tadpoles and bullfrogs while wading in swamp water with a ? and "flushing the toilet" behind them?

I have caught bull frogs and tadpoles for fun. Catch and release though, no flushing!

Have you ever caught a wild turtle?

I have! I grew up in Florida so we were always rescuing turtles crossing the street. Sometimes we’d make them pets lol

Have you ever used anything besides milk, in your cereal?

I tried orange juice once. Would not recommend.

Have you ever eaten wild blackberries off the bush?
 
More than I can count. The creek that ran near the house was so thick with 'em that you could practically walk across on their backs without getting your boots wet above the welt when the run was on. Of course, I wasn't "sport" fishing, so used some rather unorthodox methods... Who needs a fishing pole or net when you've got a pitchfork and a 4 foot gaff hook? :) House reeked of fish for weeks after the run started every year - Canned salmon is AT LEAST as good as tuna, and I can't even guess at how many quart jars of it were still stocked in the basement when I moved out on my own.

Have you ever harvested wild blueberries?
