What do you do when you're not at a computer?

Posted 02 September 2011 - 02:23 PM

Shocking title, I know. Some of us only get up to go to the bathroom and then it's right back on.

I'm just interested in what kind of (non-computer based) hobbies you all have. I've been trying to pick a hobby unrelated to my field for the sole purpose of getting away (sometimes you just need to). Unfortunately, I haven't had much success, but I thought "hey, there are some similarities between me and the DIC folk. Let me ask them!"

So here I am. I guess I should iterate that I am not actively asking for ideas. I just want to know what YOU guys do for your enjoyment when you want to get away from the computer.

Is This A Good Question/Topic? 0

You can look at many of our profiles here and it will tell you our hobbies. I for one like to watch medieval or techie movies. But I know others here who like to scuba (Skyhawk133), grow out their hair and be a girly man (gabehabe) or be a sexi mexi (supersloth) or bitch about their moms.... I will stop that comment right there.

;)

Some of us keep fit:

Others run as klingons, others officiate weddings, work on cars, shoot guns, pound beers, and all sorts of fun stuff.

I would add masturbating furiously, except that's an activity I'm sure most involve a computer in.

When I'm not on the computer, I'm either studying, reading, watching tv, or hanging out with my friends.

If I'm not at my computer you say?

Hmmm... I guess then I use my tablet. Or failing that I suppose my smartphone.

I'd like to say I was kidding, but I'm currently in bed typing this into my phone on tapatalk... So...

I play video games on my 360, read fantasy novels, watch lots of films, hang out with my mates when I can, and although I haven't for years I am great at jigsaw puzzles.

I work and go to school. I have no time for other hobbies. Don't worry, working out is included in work, since I do it at my work's gym.
