What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations?

  • I’m a contortionist.

    • Has anyone else noticed a sudden lack of reading comprehension skills?

  • It helps to use only happy nice words. A happy sentence is an objective sentence, free from judgements or pronouns.

    “You watch that stupid thing too much.”

    Starts with a pronoun, contains “stupid”, ends with a judgement. It’ll make people furious and it’s not the content for them but the trigger words they scan for.

    “Maybe we could go outside instead of watching TV?”

    Same reasoning behind why you said it, different responses sometimes.

  • Some of it’s the food too. Folks be hoofing gluten and corn syrup all day long. I saw a homeless guy in the park just sitting there eating a block of pudding mix.

  • It’s not right to call someone handicapped just because they like a different color ice cream than you.

    • Whats the least fun fact you know?

    Jump

  • We forget things but we remember people. As long as you take one life lesson from every person you meet you’ll never forget the important stuff.

    Jump

  • At the rate of advancement of tech it’s conceivable that there is life alive now that may never die.

    • Stupid question, but what makes Linux, linux?

    Jump

  • Hypothetically, could a guy called Linus create his own kernel and name it after himself?

    • How do I avoid becoming a crotchety old man? I’m seriously asking.

    Jump

  • Give more than you take.

    • Man accused of being Somerset gimp banned by court from wearing masks or wriggling on floor ahead of October trial

    Jump

  • A better question is why would you need to?

    • The more you talk with your friend who writes fiction, the greater the likelihood you'll end up in one of their stories or novels.

  • “Grow,” the Creator whispered. “Grow, and become.”

    Ord didn’t understand. It had been nothing but a lonely moon its whole life. “It hurt,” Ord whimpered feebly. “It hurt, all the time.”

    The creator didn’t respond at first. It kept orbiting at the same distance, its thoughts fragmented and superimposed. Eventually the voice of the Lord spoke very clearly and apologized. It was sorry, it said. It hadn’t meant for things to get so out of hand. The history had gotten all mixed up and written down wrong.

    Ord told it that was okay. It seemed happy with that. It left shortly after.

    Then the planet of Ord started to grow.

    • Is this it? Is there anything more to life, am I missing something?

    Jump

  • Life advice:

    a) if you eat stupid food you get tired and ill. Avoid gluten and corn syrup and acquire paleo + protein.

    b) you get tired doing exercise you don’t want to do. Folks doing work they enjoy can do it all day long.

    • Where are you? Can you move?

    Jump

  • You are more than just a point in space. You see others perform actions and you attempt to replicate them.
