Other than obeying (or other gaming), what are your hobbies?
« on: December 16, 2014, 03:01:42 AM »
What other hobbies do you enjoy, other than playing games? Hiking? Building miniatures? Collecting Slovakian porn?

I am into cars. I love to read about cars. Talk about cars. Work on cars. Watch cars race (except for NASCAR).

I am currently in the process of narrowing down my next daily driver for next year when it comes to buy.
I have it down to either an Acura TL type S, Mitsubishi Evo X (or Ralliart), or Pontiac G8 GT. Then in 2021, I will be importing a Mitsubishi Evo IV as my weekend car.

So lets hear your hobby (or hobbies). What occupies your time when you are not playing games?

I like cars too, but I don't watch 'em race and my repair work is limited to relatively easy stuff like oil changes and brakes.  I also like riding my bike and masturbating but not at the same time.... that's a mistake you only make once.

I do not watch them race as much as I used to. More just watch clips on youtube when I get a chance.

What do you ride?

I need to get back into riding again. I started this year after buying a new road bike, but then fell out of habit rather quickly. I am going to start again when it warms up. Need to drop a bunch of weight, plus I like the "alone" time I get on a bike.

I miss riding during the winter months; I can bundle up and handle the cold just fine, but the bike doesn't shift or brake well below freezing and it's often too wet and messy for riding.  Part of why I want to buy a house is so I can set up a nice stationary bike for riding while watching the idiot box (maybe gaming too if I can handle a controller and not fall off the bike), and a dedicated ball gag and zipper mask room of course.

Oh, another hobby of mine is reading.  It's mostly Stephen King, Frank Herbert (and his son's meh Dune stuff), and Tolkien books, but I also read a couple different magazines and various flavor of the month books that look good but usually disappoint.

mmm DSM tasty. Cars are my other hobby as well. I have a fully built '96 Eagle Talon TSI /Mitubishi Eclipse GSX (turbo, all wheel drive) that i spent a few years building (15 months just to build motor in my garage  8)). So in my book you need to get another Mitsu! Also i'm into older cars. My new project is a '72 Plymouth Gran Fury. I'm really feeling the last of era muscle cars. Here's a couple pics of both cars.

I wish I had time for models, especially Gundam models.

I asked for an indoor trainer thing for Christmas. Hopefully I'll get it and I can set it up in our basement during the winter months so I'm not so sluggish in the spring.

I've been trying to pick up reading again too. Started reading Sagan's Cosmos. But then picked up a book called "10 myths about evolution". Saw it referenced in an article I read, and sounded interesting. Basically it straightens out the main misconceptions of evolution.

I am a HUGE Tolkien fan. I've started reading The Silmarillion at least 3 times, and have never made it all the way through.
What do you think of the LOTR and Hobbit movies? I was happy to see that world come to life, but was not real happy with the liberties Jackson took with making the stories a little different.

Beautiful cars man. I have owned a few 1g DSMs. My favorite was a Talon TSi AWD. It was beat to hell on the outside, but ran like a champ. Sold it for a measly $1,500 and regretted it instantly.
Have you dyno'd your DSM?

No, there's a few dyno's here in town but last guy i knew with an awd dyno closed a few years back. It's has a 1g block and 2g head. 16g turbo with headers, 560cc injectors 3" exhaust, ecm programmed/tuned @ 18psi, evo rims etc. Pulls fast, gets me lots of tickets sigh.

Aside from all the video / computer game related stuff and board games I like cars too.  Imagine that ;)

I favor BMWs though... Older are better.  I do also like watching racing (except NASCAR!)

I liked the LotR movies, but I've not seen the Hobbit ones yet.  Methinks it would've been better to leave it as just one movie (maybe two) instead of stretching it out into a trilogy.

I like cars as well.  I like working of my Evo and plan to build the engine soon to make over 600WHP.  It's very fast now but why not faster?

I also like working on my Waverunner, it has over 300HP now and really moves.  Basically anything fast.

When I'm not being a disgusting lazy slob, I enjoy getting into the mountains for hiking/camping/skiing. I really do like to program, but these days it's incredibly hard to motivate myself to do so after work. Also I like to drink beer and post stupid stuff on pcefx. :D

EDIT: Oh yeah, I like cars too, though what little I knew about them in terms of actually working on one I've forgotten since highschool. I've told myself if I can get in shape, I'll buy myself a Chevy SS. Yeah yeah, I know, but I've got a weak spot for Holden.
