Not only do I love Videogames, but I love board games too. Not much for trading card games, but I do love Munchkin (I'm not good at deck building, but everybody uses the same deck in Munchkin, if you're unfamiliar). I read comics, primarily Green Lantern. I also read books and I'm currently rereading the Maze Runner trilogy and recommend it to anybody! I also collect Transformers and Nintendo and Coca Cola paraphernalia. I also love old TV shows such as Get Smart, Giligan's Island, Greatest American Hero, etc. I love brain teasers and hough not as fast as most, my personal best on a Rubik's Cube is 45 seconds.
So what about everybody else? What are your other hobbies?

Muzak. Like, seriously, I have a freaking addiction. Need proof? OK, I have 5556 song's on my iPod. Boom. Also, I have a website where I review said music, located here (shameless plug alert): reagansreviews.blogspot.com. (I would make that a link, but I'm writing this on an iPad, thus, I can't) I'm also really into movies and various TV shows. (Twin Peaks, Sherlock, Lost (especially)) And classic literature. And watching sports. The only sport I actually play is Tennis.

Hey, what is Muzak exactly? I've only heard of that recently?

A silly way of spelling "music".

Hahahaha!

I do wushu and I love going to Chinese neighborhoods and looking for really old wushu books in the book stores. Found some great stuff! Not that I do it often, but if i'm in the area that's all I look for. I some day hope to achieve the nick name the "American Eagle!" I want even the Chinese athletes to recognize my skill! I'd love the same for Monkey, but I can't think of a cool name yet.

Now with my daughter I feed her while sitting on the internet like never before. Just skimming the boards is my new hobby now. Not getting fat though! Well not getting that fat...

But man I am a One Piece fiend! A new chapter comes out, I am analyzing it like crazy if I'm not already disabled from laughter or too much crying.

And my newest hobby is attempting to heal. Man it's been years! But I finally found 2 people that made some ultra significant progress. Reiki healing and Trigger Point therapy, if you got a muscle problem keep those in mind!

There is no correlation between sandwiches and my kidney failure.

Playing guitar, writing programs here and there...messing with my Xoom and Droid RAZR. I guess those are hobbies for when I'm not at work...or school...or with my wife and kids...

Be glad you weren't forced to read Mansfield Park. Oh lord... I love Austen but reading through Mansfield Park defeats me! ... I'd rather just pop in the DVDs...

No one is allowed to complain about having difficulty finishing a book till they've read a James Joyce novel. Uggggghhghghghghghghghghg.

All my hobbies are kind of mundane and boring to be perfectly honest. Obviously I'm interested in them, but they're kind of stuff that most people are into.

I love to read (Modern History, Politcal Theory as well as various genres of fiction), I play acoustic guitar and ukulele, I enjoy going to gigs (folk, rock, indie, metal, traditional Irish, etc), watching movies and tv shows, and I like to relax with a whiskey and a few beers.

*makes tired, dismissive observation that Jane Austin's books are the all the same with different character names*

My latest "Nerds & Men" pretty well establishes my hobbies.

Ceric · « **Reply #22 on:** September 27, 2012, 04:44:23 PM »

I edit a Podcast.
Play Games.
Raise a family.

I'm a very flat character.

But there's a wealth of knowledge, of wit, or insight in her works! As a member of JASNA, I have a subscription to Persuasions, an online journal publishing essays and academic papers delving into different aspects of Austen's works, and it's the best bedside reading I've done in years! Take back what you said! Or else...

KANLY! Vendetta! I shall hunt you down like desert rats!
