A new viral game of "Never Have I Ever" sweeping Twitter has people questioning their life choices—for better or for worse.

The challenge presents Twitter users with a number of different activities that include skipping school, getting drunk, firing guns, appearing on TV, skydiving and meeting celebrities.
People are expected to use the honor system and give themselves one point for each thing they haven't done. They then share their points in a tweet.
Twitter users are sharing their scores, but also are joking about how their scores turned out. Irish novelist Adrian McKinty gave himself a bonus point for not pointing out a spelling mistake in a tweet, a subtle dig at the word "piercing" being misspelled in the image. MSNBC and SiriusXM contributor Jason Johnson said his score would have been higher, but he "got into a lot of shenanigans last year."

MSNBC correspondent Joy Reid tweeted that she got a seven but wasn't sure whether or not that was a good thing or a bad thing. Human Rights Campaign press secretary Charlotte Clymer also wrote that she wasn't sure what her score of three meant.

Poet and journalist Hanif Abdurraqib boasted about his perfect score. He wrote that he was "thrilled to leave you heathens behind and enter the kingdom of heaven when the time comes." Adnan's Story author and Undisclosed podcast host Rabia Chaudry shared a similar sentiment, sharing her score of 13. "I'm going straight to heaven," she tweeted.

Former Black Crowes drummer Steve Gorman shared which five items he didn't do: zip-lining, skydiving, a cruise, piercing, and tattoo. He said that while he was open to zip-lining or skydiving, he had no interest in the other three—"ESPECIALLY a cruise." Mad Men actor Michael Gladis tweeted that he got a four, but could do all of them tonight if he wanted.
5 - Zip line, Cruise, Piercing, Tattoo, Skydive

I'm good with it.
I'd zip and sky dive.
No interest in the other three.
ESPECIALLY a cruise. https://t.co/QwyOS7MdoI
I got a 4, but could knock those all out tonight if I wanted to. https://t.co/PKlf068iOM

Some people did take the opportunity to explain some of their choices. Comedian Kathleen Madigan blamed her arrest on "an over reactive nutjob dog catcher." Daily News columnist Brandon Friedman mocked the list, noting that while he got a four, one of the options is "sang karaoke." Author and translator Zack Davisson said the only reason he hasn't skydived, "because I am a sane person who knows better."
Apparently I got this wrong. Its points for things you HAVEN'T DONE. In that case I am a 1-pointed. Done all these things multiple times. Except for sky diving, because I am a sane person who knows better. https://t.co/Fo9Com1yT0

Author Clay Cane seemed satisfied by scoring five. "I've lived," he wrote. Democratic Strategist Tom Watson said that he's "had a lot of fun," scoring a four.
Geez, only a 4 - but I've had a lot of fun. ? https://t.co/lOF5wxZ8NO

Still, some people seemed more ashamed of their low scores. "Do Not Judge Me," actress Mickey White wrote.
