Satisfying my own curiosity #4:
Who here has a weird hobby unrelated to coding?

I'd appreciate straining from discussions, ideally 1 comment per person starting with the name of the hobby or short description (it'd make counting easier).

My hobbies are both in your name. Have no other hobbies. Was into cars once, also into computer hardware but that's very long ago. I became a bit dull and I do notice having only one subject to talk about affects social life a bit. I also don't read the news or watch TV. Very peaceful solo life and I love it. Next to the woods in my beautiful park.

Edit: I obviously didn't read the last part

I don't know if you are a bot by now.

I mean, what's the point of posting such questions here if not for discussion.

There's the slight possibility of you being real, and really wanting to tally results easily, but then again, you have like 50 answers total. You could do it by hand. Fuck off.

idk what a weird hobby is. does that mean typical hobbies are off limits?

- used to do sketches, pixel art
- used to make music in code, so I guess related
- gardening
- cooking is probably considered a hobby these days
- video games
- watching b rated horror films
- spiritually taking drugs

evidently hobby is defined as "whimsical obsession". in which case I have a lot and they change every 3 months

learned psychology specifically social cohesion, how people feel good, learn, grow, and how people can be sold things and typical errors they have in thinking. then dived into business, then moved to economics, then was into fluid dynamics/systems thinking for a bit. now I'm doing competition again (I used to pvp a bunch but now I'm kind of interested in sports, war) and also re-doing... uhh... I don't know how to put it. some people believe in fairies and gnomes and stuff. so all of that stuff. like weird lore that might apply to modern life, like an exercise of imagination

philosophy

my hobby is starting discussions in threads where people ask for no discussions.

how do you feel about that?

@tosensei how are you mate? How have you been? <3

@tosensei Discuss away. It was a silly thing to ask for anyway.

@retoor: “My hobbies are both in your name”

my-name: 😚😙😎😈

@jestdotty Okay, I originally meant "weird" as in "unrelated to IT" (assuming we're all in IT somehow here), but I'm now interested in the "bizarre"! I mean "spiritually taking drugs". Count me in!

My most excentric hobby: I bred lizards when I was 12-14 and started breeding insects to save on feeding. Then I kept the insects farm long after the lizards were gone (sold, not dead). Literally had bugs in my room. Imagine how popular it made me with the ladies.

@CoreFusionX Yeah, I fucked off. 🖤

@cprn haha, drugs is a hobby? So, I can show it off to my parents now? Let's do not. My last few birthdays were sad enough already

@retoor they call them psychonauts

I'm currently making pokemon with the 3d pen

@darksideofyay

Awesome.

On a side note, I will always think spinda is like drunk artist Pikachu.

@CoreFusionX that's mimikyu tho

@darksideofyay wow, that's an awesome hobby

@CoreFusionX wtf, I thought it was a joke. Yes, that's indeed a drunk Pikachu. I like it
