So..what do you do for fun?

[Rikirk]

Well...any takers?<br><br><br>Basically my point is what are your hobbies?<br><br>*Yes, yes I know this is a stupid thread but hey, I was bored and this was the best I could come up with on short notice.*<br><br>As for me, In no uncertain terms, my main hobby is model airplanes. I started when I was quite young and now just cant get enough of it. Have gotten rather good at it too after all these years.<br><br>I also like computer gaming, slapstick comedy, Drawing and Science Fiction.<br><br><br><br><br>...Ok...why do I feel like I just filled out a personals ad. <br><br>To those of you who respond to this..thank you in advance.

Video gaming, RPG playing, CCG playing, and fanfiction writing.<br><br>Basically, I'm so geeky I make Stephan look normal. Observe:<br><br>Good evening, gul azan, thar lo, 'quel undome, Vina naistri, bwael tangisto, bensvelk thurkear, shorah, nuqneH, hamha, kuut ajahehk, and weet olodadw to you all.<br><br>That's basically a greeting in common, dwarven, D&D elvish, some other elvish, Hylian, Drow, draconic, D'ni, Klingon, Ham-Ham, Al Behd, and Dinoese.

Well, let's see here:<br><br>I'm a writer, currently working on a series of short stories that could congeal themselves into a novel.<br><br>I'm an FCC-licensed amateur radio operator, and a member of Amateur Radio Emergency Services (ARES), an organization that assists inter-departmental and distance communications during disasters and emergencies.<br><br>I've become quite addicted to Second Life (www.secondlife.com), and I'm in the process of building a new furry hangout in-game.<br><br>I have several other slowly-progressing projects as well, including a web radio station, several websites, and some other stories I want to finish writing.<br><br>I used to work as a computer technician, but the company I worked for went out of business, and I'm tired of fixing problems for stupid users, so that'll likely become a hobby too.<br><br>Outside of computers, I'm an active member of the furry community, and I usually go to cons/large furmeets about once a month. I also go to a lot of babyfur meets in addition to regular furry gatherings (sometimes both in the same weekend ). I have a wonderful boyfriend named Andrew (aka Dobie), and he & I do a good bit of travelling together. I love to sing, but I haven't done it with a band for years, so my voice is a bit out of shape.<br><br>I think that covers just about everything <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

For fun? Hanging out with mates, mucking around the place.<br>And the occasional camp/hike from Venturers.

Well, I've been working on a novel of sorts lately. No, "novel" isn't quite the right word for it. I've developed an entire fiction, starting at 2006ish and leading up through around 2150, when my "novel," <i>The Zephyros</i> takes place, about a century after the third World War.<br><br>I'm also working on creating a constructed language, currently called "Zholec." This is a language that will get used in my fiction eventually.<br><br>Beyond that, I am considering producing a weekly political "podcast." I've already started to draft out the general format. If I go along with this, it would basically be a summary of the week's major political news stories, followed by a (likely scathing) short opinion piece.<br><br>I've also begun to learn <a href='http://www.blender3d.org/' target='_blank'>Blender</a>, an open source 3D modeling and animation program, which can yield results similar to those of 3D Studio MAX.<br><br>Also, I'm involved in the campus ACM (American Computing Machines) club, which is running a programming competition for local high school students.<br><br>And, I'm working on a few websites. Some for money, some not. In fact, I may have another O&M related site finished soon... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br><br>Also, I've been slowly developing my drawing skills. Very slowly, <i>but they're developing!</i><br><br>And that's about all.

[Gizensha]

I play video games, mainly. I used to write, but I don't do that enough anymore. I used to RP, but I don't do that enough anymore. I used to read, but I don't do that enough anymore. Despite all the myriad of activities I enjoy doing, I'd say right now my hobbies have somehow filtered down to video games and internet forums. *sighs*

[Tom Flapwell]

Anthony, I think it's "nuqnEH."<br><br>I have traditionally had video/computer games as my prime pastime, but I'm giving them up for Lent for the second year in a row. Now it's mainly word puzzles, reading, movies, comics, and forums.

[Holyman83]

LEts see waht do I do for fun...what my school lets me have fun?<br><br>Other than here, Playing World of warcraft and read on line comics.

[Miles E Traysandor]

Outside of the Internet, I generally play a lot of Pokemon when I can. Not for the kiddie value but because it's a very good strategy game. Like a very large and complicated game of Rock, Paper, Scissors.<br><br>Online I do mostly forum browsing, Chatting with various AIM/MSN/YIM contacts (NOTE: I encourage people interested in me to give me a buzz on one of the messengers. I don't bite, and you're a lot more likely to get a meaningful conversation from me than if we were in an IRC room. However, I don't accept anonymous messages on any messenger.), IRC chats when I can get around to it, playing Doom, Super Sonic Doom, or one of the many emulators I have.

[Supersmoke]

My hobbies include Return to Castle Wolfenstein, which I have played for 2 years and 2 months. I also spend time playing console games, preferably Nintendo consoles. I play bass guitar. And I enjoy h8.

That's what I get for counting on the editors at <i>Disney Adventures</i> from the early '90s.

I write Tails fanfics...

[Joe3210]

I play magic the gathering. I never got into the other games though.

[Dr. Doog]

I make fun of people and explore various regions of computers. old brands, old software, new hardware, <i>LEGO</i> hardware...
