Hobbies...

Recommended Posts

I glanced at another dz.commer's profile today and one of the hobbies the poster listed was "Being Awesome"

now I don't have any problem with someone having this listed as a hobbie but it's also not the first time I've seen that sort of thing...

but it makes me wonder what other kind of odd/different hobbies do y'all practice in your profiles? And so I don't have to look I figured I'd ask... :P

I sing in a Barbershop Quartet.

that's not odd, that's COOL... B|



I've been singing Barbershop for over 20 years and if there is one that I know for sure it is that Barbershop is not cool.

If it was cool, wouldn't it attract chicks :P

Nah, being cool isn't what attracts chicks. It's all about being aloof. And if you can pull that off while singing in a barbershop quartet, you could own this world.

Edit: Oh yeah, my interests are steak and ribs. Especially steak stuffed with ribs.

I don't have hobbies...I don't have a life...maybe I should take up one or the other. Would it help to attract babes?

Years ago, my ex and her mother decided that I needed a hobby. They went 4 years in a row at Xmas giving me hobby "starter kits" (trains, model airplanes, etc., etc.). It took them that long to figure out that if the kits were never opened, I probably didn't want to take it up.
True.

I think I just put a name with a face. Haven't we been Cocks together on several occasions? :S:D

Yes indeed, the Cocks Rock :P

Here's a shot with me - the old fat guy. I'm easy to spot - beard, blue hat, holding music, pretty much dead center in this picture.

I don't have hobbies



Me, neither. Not anymore. I used to play guitar and bass - gigged a couple nights a week in Santa Monica - but I rarely have the opportunity to pick them up (or my mandolin, banjo or uke).

I also used to golf. Now I just play with my kids. :)
And try to play with my wife, though she's usually too tired.:| So I guess I play with myself.:D


My wife is hotter than your wife.

I'm the guy making the odd face with his eyes closed, directly behind you. :S:D

here's what's in my profile:

Skydiving (duhhh), surfing, skiing, cars, ice hockey, soccer, pissing people off by having my own opinion, being shallow without feeling bad for it, cooking, porn, flatulence, movies (horror, action, sci-fi, comedy), books of all sorts, music (anything except rap and country), trolling, sleeping, swimming, jumping out of random places and scaring the fuck out of people, rainstorms, finding a job, twisted humour.

and cadbury eggs.

Being Awesome isn't a hobby. It's a lifestyle.

True, I probably should have gone with what the profile entry actually says "Interests" which is closer in meaning to "lifestyle" then "Hobby"...

I used to do this and now I'm getting back into it -

building and battling 1/96 scale model warships.
It's called the magnificent obsession. You spend months building these elaborate models (I built the DKM Graf Spee), outfitting them with compressed air or CO2 bb/ball bearing cannons (depended on what the actual ship carried) and then sailing them around, shooting each other with the purpose of sinking the other.

The ships are built to withstand sinking and can be easily refloated, repaired and re-armed.

If you have an engineering bug in you - it's extremely addictive B|

You don't piss people off by having your own opinion. You piss people off because your opinions suck. :P



I think it's the fact that I won't back down on my opinions, and that I'm strongly opinionated to begin with, that pisses people off. I spent the first 25 years of my life kowtowing to other people, now I just speak my mind.

That having been said, I'm one of the most disturbingly fair people you'll ever meet, I don't let my opinions get in the way of doing what's right in a given situation.
