I don't.
I do karate, learn foreign languages for fun, and sometimes work on a novel I’ll never finish.
>work on a novel I’ll never finish.
I feel that.
Every time I make the smallest amount of actual progress, I get an idea for a different story and start outlining that instead. I have outlines for like 5 different stories I’ll never finish.
I am slowly learning to draw, but I spend almost all my free time on vidya. What do?
come to terms with no productive hobbies or shame yourself into getting one
Yeah, hugging lolis.
There are lectures by Sanderson on youtube and I think he talks a bit about that, no idea how helpful it'd be though.
That's a tough one. Could take your sketchbook and go to the park. The best way to avoid temptation is to remove the tempting aspect from your presence.
fishing lvls?
That's because you don't care that much about it, you need to create a story that you feel passionate about
Lifting, gunpla, learning languages to read lit, a meme sport I don't wanna talk about, drawing, piano.
is it lacrosse?
It's probably considered worse than lacrosse.
disc golf
Is it Asian?
masturbating to 2hus
I don't want to turn this into a guessing match, it's competitive standard and latin ballroom.
My only hobbies are Yea Forums & video games.
Based or cringe?
No. I thought I enjoyed learning languages but I quickly realized I was only interested in English, I don't have any patience for this shit anymore.
i could use a creative hobby i guess, maybe should try drawing but i don't mean anime style
No matter what style you want to draw in you gotta learn the same fundamentals. Better off that you don't want to draw "anime style" because people always dive straight into that shit abd can't gitgud because they don't want to draw from life.
I don't even know what that is.
Neither. Just sad
Trying to learn to draw but it's difficult
Cooking. Reading manga. Shitposting here. Going to the gym and playing irl MtG
And cute Tenshi, dude
Variety of dances in front of a jury. Everything gets rated and you hope you win. Really satisfying if you do well at a competition.
suicidal ideation
Guns, fishing and collecting Steins Gate merchandise.
crying irl
Fishing, cooking, working out. I only play SP games nowadays after getting off the MP treadmill of tedium.
I paint warhammer minis though I haven't touched the hobby in a good couple of months because I'm lazy and depressed
My hobby was exploring the internet for interesting sites. Now that everything is centralized there isnt much to find thats current. So now I browse old webrings or dead geocities archives and read the blogs or websites made by people during a happier time.
It is sad the artist stopped drawing 2hu and changed his art style.
Neat, everyone dances to the same song? I'd personally get tired of the song after watching a few.
Reading and playing guitar
I used to be really social but I moved a few years ago and haven't been able to click with anyone around here. So now I just go to bars and sometimes chat with strangers, sometimes practice bass guitar for no reason, and work on a game which I guess is technically vidya. But I spend most of my time working IT/development and watching stand up comedy on YouTube and Netflix. I used to run, but my knees got pretty bad so I'm restrained to mostly non-cardio shit that I've never liked doing.
I run four times a week and masturbate every now and then.
Where did you move to?
I don't, really.
I am 35, have a job (same job for almost 11 years, to be precise), no wife and kids and yes, I have waaay too much free time. I waste that time on vidya, Yea Forums, watching movies, and from time to time I pick dumbbell or two and/or take a long walk (2-4 hours, depend on the mood) and listen to music while doing it. I'd say that the music is more important to me than video games.
I have none but if I had to get one It'd be learning about birds and parrots.
I should buy a book about them.
Maryland. I grew up here, but left for almost 15 years after high school. Most of those friends moved away or just lost contact over the years. The place is overpopulated and expensive as fuck and yet the people are cold, shitty, and stuck so far up their own asses they could eat their own hearts - if they had them, anyway. Can't wait to get the fuck out of here.
Do you want to live a peaceful life like a plant and/or have an unhealthy obsession with women's hands?
I want to play a fun fishing game.
I occasionally watch animu, attempt to draw every so often, try to learn Japanese, masturbate every few hours and lurk around Yea Forums.
No, you practise your choreography during your practise and pick your own songs and most events too. You can't really come up with a choreography that fast.
Try "Sonic Adventure" on the Dreamcast.
Or Sega Bass Fishing
I am learning guitar
Why not go fishing, like outside?
You are unironically living the dream. It might not feel like it, but you are. Yeah maybe a "light" girlfriend would be nice, but unless you really want kids, there is no reason for marriage. And maybe ten years from now you'll be sad you don't have a kid. But you have all the freedom in the world, and that's something to be valued.
I let a girl pressure me into marriage at 20 because I'm stupid, had a kid (whom I admittedly love and is the best part of my life right now) at 22 because I'm stupid, and now I'm 33, divorced for nearly 10 years (didn't like her anyway but we get along now) and mostly miserable. I love the boy to death, but god, if there aren't days I don't want to just pick up and take a flight to wherever for a week.
If it's just a week shouldn't be too bad, right?
I make decent money, but that's still a problem. Also have custody obligations so I have to time things out right. I can't just decide on a Friday that I'll visit a place on Sunday if I get the urge. Also have to stay within a reasonable distance of my kid, even though I would love to just work someone across the country. Had to work 2 hours away one time, and that was a nightmare. I loved the job and the area, but driving to get him every other weekend was a pain in the ass.
I guess it's just the little things that tie you down. And even if the marriage had worked out, I'd be tied down in other, probably more restrictive ways. And I guess that's the point, but still.
Ah, well, good luck user. Hopefully you can find time for a break.
Thanks user. I want to reiterate that I love spending time with my son, it's the in-between times that get grueling. Hope things go well for you too.
>being old and single and having a job is "living the dream"
how low are your standards
I like Drawing, Journaling/Introspecting, and Studying Linux at the moment.
I want to get in to biking because it seems like a fun thing to do. I enjoy Linux because I personally find it amazing that the vital systems are out in the open, and every part of the system is customizable, even if I don't take advantage of it all.
Different people have different priorities, wants, and needs. 35 is not that old, and if he wants to get married and have kids he easily has another 5-7 years before I'd say he's past the point of no return.
Biking is really fun
Used to fuck around during summer for hours back in secondary school, or use it to go working
Man, I miss those days
how is anyones dream being a wagecuck and being single
sounds more like "I fucked up and had kids"
I enjoy spending time with my younger sister as she's lonely as I was when I was her age, we are best friends and she tells me she's happy so I made a great job it seems, I'll keep spoiling her until she decides what to do with her life, I'm pretty much done with mine
That isn't anyone's dream, what are you talking about?
i keep and breed pet bugs like tarantulas, true spiders, insects, etc
I try to read since my vidya playing never leads anywhere. Particularly I just pick up fighting games but get too aimless or discouraged to make any progress, so I resort to other hobbies for fulfillment. Maybe I'll drop vidya altogether some day.
Fashion, anime, photography, cooking, learning Japanese and French counts I guess.
Video games are such a small part of my life
I write and play tabletop. I also like cooking because I'm sick of freezer food. And drinking new beers might be a hobby I guess.
That's about it. I've got nothing else in life because nothing kindles my spirit, it's just habit.
I wish I got along with my little sister. Spent most of our lives being spiteful siblings. We are amicable now that we're adults but no real reason to hang out. Outside of family gatherings where we're both socially inept so we talk to each other to avoid having to deal with family.
What do you do to get feedback?
Can we read something you wrote?
Assuming you're both in the same area, just go out to lunch or dinner with her. You'll both appreciate it.
I lost intererst in the hobby in 2012 shortly after spending a lot of money on getting a new army and paint set. Still have a whole 2000p worth of unpainted Blood Angels in a Citadel figure case along with a dozen of probably completely dried up Citadel paints.
Reading. Photography. I used to translate manga for Yea Forums.
Jesus Christ
I write a quest. It requires feedback to function, and thankfully I've been getting it for years. I don't run on /qtg/ but I post there.
A few have mentioned photography so far, but what's fun about it? Just curious.
arts and crafts
bass fishing actually
Mostly an excuse to go for walks and explore for me. When I was younger I used to go looking for dilapidated old buildings and break in just to take photographs. Someone called the police on me once though and that was the end of that.
Also I like mechanical devices and stuff like that, old film cameras are nice clicky tactile things that are fun to collect.
I collect and wear costumes.
>3720x4080
why
Cooking, although working as a cook drains it out of me and I very rarely make nice food for myself anymore.
>hobbies
>vidya
photography, yoga, cooking, guitar, reading
Not him but when you get alittle more into photography and actually learn how a reflex works it's really fun
Doing a shot of something and having more freedom of exposition, lens and so on allows you to express yourself a lot than just snapping a photo with your phone and applying some Instagram filters
Raising kids. Would not recommend for everyone.
origami
guns
posting on /pol/
What's a good way to start getting into Yoga? I work a night shift so classes aren't really at a convenient time frame for me.
Tenshi a tenSHIT
My hobbies are doing anything until I'm tired enough to go to bed.
I make sprites for a certain game
Maybe I'm a cuck but I've never understood the appeal of guns, but I'd like to talk about it with someone that does
Do you collect them? Do target practice?
or only for defence?
All the pics with Tenshi gave me impression of her being a brat lusting for spanking.
I'm sorry to hear that, user. But at least you get along with your ex, and you have a son you love and who, I assume, loves you.
I wish you all the best. And, as you know, if everything seems dark and miserable you always have this site. Weird as it may seems, Yea Forums fagg--I mean anons really helped me few times with their advices.
that's pretty cute user, what for?
I do hema, study drawing, play ttrpgs and occationally dabble at vidya making.
Dirtbiking
Carpentry
Bicycling and running when i can force myself too
Lift weights when i can force myself too
Thats pretty much fuckin it
I fiddle with my car, spend time with my wife, and act as a makeshift therapist for the group of friends I've accumulated over the years. I genuinely enjoy helping people on a one-to-one basis and love seeing them improve. My dream job is being a mentor or a guidance counselor, but it looks like a tough field to get into, plus there's probably not much money in it and we've got bills to pay.
I'd love to teach myself to draw, but I feel like I've painted myself into a corner by absorbing too many tutorials and teachings without putting in enough practical training, so now my eyes and my hands are at vastly different levels and trying to draw even the most basic human figure from a reference is an excruciating ordeal when my hands just don't go in the directions I want them to. I can critique and quasi-redline my artist friends' works but trying to do anything of my own makes me feel like Michael J. Fox on meth. In the end it doesn't really bother me much since I can just commission people and all I really want is donut steel story shit anyway.
A long time ago I used to make plush dolls. My thing used to be making 2hus, back in the days when Over Drive and Marisa Stole The Precious Thing were the hot shit and fumos didn't even exist. But, that fell by the wayside when we had to move into a smaller apartment without enough space to comfortably set up a workshop as well as not enough space to display the damn things. It's a wonderful feeling being able to create a physical, tangible object that can smile back at someone, but they fill up space fast and you can't just get rid of your "children" when they inconvenience you. Maybe someday the housing market won't be so shit up here and we can actually get a place big enough to show everything off.
Thanks, user. And yeah, between all the pepes and wojaks, there are still some good people, discussions, and actual support here.
>I used to make plush dolls. My thing used to be making 2hus
Pictures?
>read thread
>almost all the second hobbies are drawing
jfc cant you faggots pick another hobby
A lot of folk want to be able to draw.
What an absolutely asinine thing to get mad about.
There's a lot of people doing other things too, besides, what's wrong with drawing?
Why would someone pick a different hobby just to satisfy some autistic user in an Yea Forums thread?
i went to an autism parade once almost all the autist there have drawing as their hobby.
I do subwork in several languages, although I usually get commissioned to do propaganda. It's more work than a hobby really but I like languages, if moonrunes wasn't so goddamn inaccessible barring living in the country for a decade I'd be translating obscure vidya.
fapping and fishing.

not much, i like drawing mostly.

This board has proven time and time again to be able to provide much better discussion on Yea Forums, Yea Forums, Yea Forums, Yea Forums, /m/ and /tg/ topics than these boards themselves.
You tell us.
I draw a lot not showing my work here though, i'm a coward
I read sometimes
I fucking knit
I cook but I guess that's more a need than anything
