  • Unusual hobbies

    Out of post holiday boredom this morning, I found this list of unusual hobbies. A couple of them seem maybe marginally legal or ethical, and some seem more normal. I need a new hobby but Extreme Ironing or Mooing probably aren’t going to interest me. Whaddya got?

    I collect pictures of dead presidents and can recommend the practice.

    There are two kinds of boaters: those who have run aground, and those who lie about it.

      Oh dear! I think I indulge in at least four of those on the list.
      But Scrabble being weird? that's weird!

        If those are weird I wonder what he deems "normal"? To me, weird is hobbies like Golf, watching other people play sports or Mall Strolling. Now those ​are weird!

          I also have engaged in several of those activities.

          But the one that caught my eye was Witchcraft. I think exploring in that direction would be fascinating. A new approach to science, sorta. And it fits in with my spirituality. I'm not churchy at all, but identify with (if anything) the Druids.

                A favorite comedian of mine, Bill Burr, always tries to stay in hotel rooms that have a view of an airport. His “hobby” is listening to ATC, watching with binoculars, and using a flight ID app.

                  In the US this perverted idea of “blood and soil” over “constitutional principles” is the most radical and anti-democratic and anti-Conservative idea I have heard in my lifetime.

                    Golf is the stupidest sh17 ever....yeah, and yelling at sports on tv is a close second.

                      I was thinking of taking up collecting insects, or Astrophotography, like with this guy.

                            Wooden boats are a fairly unusual hobby.

                              how odd arguing gun control on esoteric forum dedicated ostensibly to the design, building, and repair of woodenboats?
