What's your hobby? - The more niche the better

[Small-arms Supremacy]

I like people watching, specifically from high places like a rooftop or a balcony where no one can see me, that way I get to see people acting normally just doing their thing. Its really calming because it detaches me from any stress or anxiety I'm feeling in the moment and gives perspective into how small I really am in the grand scheme of things.

Gardening is pretty cool. I'm thinking of getting into it once I move into my new place and have a bit more space to grow stuff. Are there any cool plants you'd recommend for a beginner?

maybe gardening was the wrong word. i didnt mean growing plants in pots in my house, i meant working in the back yard. lots of fruit trees to take care of, bunch of berry bushes to manage, tons of nasty thorny shit that has to be cut down all the time because otherwise it grows too much and turns the place into a complete wilderness, that sort of stuff.

• weeb shit like figurine collecting (a good chunk of which isn't actually weeb figurines but I digress)
• vinyl collecting
• movie collecting
• modding consoles
• fucking around with my Raspberry Pis
• gardening
• building shit
• laughing at retards
• Writing and reading (the duo of boring shit but I love doing it regardless)
• of course, vidya
• Reading up on abandoned ghosts towns and shit
• in hindsight I think I'm a boring person tbqh

Vidya, crochet, jogging, coding.
I tried getting into gardening but I kept killing everything so I stopped.

A true boomer hobby. Very respectable.

 

[CivilianOfTheFandomWars]

I lift things up and put them down in hopes of being less ugly, I have been getting into fashion lately, and I make fun of weirdos on the Internet.

 

[Bastard_Call]

I like buying animation cels from old cartoons to study the art on them and try to imitate it.
I am in a covid book club in order to score pussy, unsurprisingly most of the group are women. Unfortunately they're also mostly dykes. We're currently reading Animal Farm and I wish that was a joke.
I collect silver as a hedge against inflation, but mostly to LARP as a pirate.
On the same note, I collect rum. My collection isn't very impressive, but it's pretty good for my neck of the woods. Even some regular old Puerto Rican rum is very exotic over here.
I also have a very half-assed collection of playing cards. My favourite are these bicycle cards that glow in the dark like Ooogie Boogie.
I play chess exclusively with people who don't know how to play chess, but are still very smart and good at thinking on their toes. I don't enjoy chess as a game of who can remember the most optimal play.
I write short stories and novels and haven't finished a single one.
I animate, mostly doing spritework and other odd jobs for friends, but I also have projects of my own that I manage to keep steady.
I wish any of these hobbies were the sort that could score me a woman.

I hope you don't have a sniper.

 

[Aunt Marge]

I go on to the Harry Potter subreddit and pretend I don't speak english well in order to make my posts sound like sexual euphemisms. It's so entertaining that I've been at it for over four years now. They even made a PSA about it: The Aunt Marge troll PSA
They take themselves so seriously, so the more pissed off they get the more I do it.

 

[Odnovo]

I practice divination, mainly through card reading.

building shit

What kinda stuff do you build?

I like buying animation cels from old cartoons to study the art on them and try to imitate it.

Do you have any particular studios you like to buy cels from?

I hope you don't have a sniper.

I wish I did but the country I'm living in is so cucked you cant get pepper spray let alone a gun.

Most of the ones I own are from Nelvana and Spectrum, because they strike a nice balance between quality and affordability. As much as I'd love to own a Chuck Jones keyframe or something like that, I really couldn't justify the price that comes with it, so I mostly go for cheap TV and anime cels.

 

[The Shadow]

really into adventure motorcycle riding. I never do long trips but weekend stuff through the mountains is fun.

 

[Womanhorse]

Collecting old video games and consoles. It's mildly nostalgic and just neat to take in the history of that industry. Personally enjoy acquiring failed consoles/shitty games the most just to experience how laughably bad and misguided some of them were.

 

[Megaroad 2012]

Drawing comics for funsies.

Reminds me of being able to actually go into airports and people watching. If I'm flying solo, I'll sometimes choose a longer layover just to do this.

 

[MrTroll]

I like to lay flat on my back, urinate straight up in the air, and see how much I can get in my mouth. I also collect stamps.

 

[Cheerlead-in-Chief]

Typical nerd's hobbies such as drawing and reading and playing DnD....my new town now has CBD oil shop directly next to it so hopes are dashed.
Crossstitch and trying to re-play the keyboard again....occasional writing.

I never knew western studios sold cels. I thought it was just an anime studio thing. I learn new things every day.

Airports are some of the funniest places to do it because of how many people are cycled through each day. You're bound to watch something entertaining happening if you watch long enough. Idk if I'd ever choose a longer layover to do it though.
