Aside from browsing .net what are some of your hobbies? I personally like reading and calligraphy. How bout you?
JK- listening to music, Homebrewing, beer drinking, cornhole, tossing frisbee and occasional woodworking.
Disc golf, brewing
sleeping
playing with brain chemicals
trying to scare old people away from driving
coming up with new bizarre, crude and profane noises
having conversations that upstanding godfearing citizens don't want to hear
writing poetry
looking at things
spitting off of buildings
treating sexuality like an old tire you found in a vacant lot
worrying about shit I said to people at various points in the day
badmouthing creation, procreation
coming up with long explanations of why I shouldn't do certain things
pissing my neighbors off in ways they can't complain about (muddy naked cabbage patch kids in the back yard)
just f***ing shouting all of the time
drawing pictures
I like to workout and dabble in organic gardening.
I collect and grow cacti and succulents especially Aloe species. Well, I do this professionally too but it's certainly a hobby as well. Along with hiking, camping, rafting, and exploring the Rocky Mountains.If I were to buy a pet cactus, what kind would grow the fastest?
As for me..I enjoy reading, listening to music, video games, watching sports, playing fantasy sports, and fishing..

Does it die easily? I just got my first plant back in August its a ZZ (Zanzibar something or other) the girl who gave it to me told me I'd have to be a total retard to kill it, which is a quality that I like in plantlife.

They are pretty easy. A quick google search will lead towards nicely priced well grown plants.
ZZ plants, Zamioculcas zamiifolia, sorry love the name, like it bright and dry. Water sparingly and you'll be good.

I def want to check out this cactus. There's a sweet nursery up the road that sells cacti and other cool shit, I think I'll head there first.
I knew @the_crested_hogchoker would bring the lulz in this thread..thanks dude! If you ever want to come to bmore and scare old people with me, just say the word.

Started a saltwater aquarium about three years ago.Whats you set up?
I love salt tanks. When living in Florida going to school my roommate and I had 5 display tanks and a quarantine in our apartment, a 55 gallon garbage can with water constantly cycling. It was always fun to see maintenance people come in. We tried to make it like you were walking though an aquarium. Our biggest which was sold to a friend of a friend and was eventually built into a wall was 380 gallon. It was just too expensive to run. Currently I have nothing running because in CT the F'n power goes out every three seconds.
Playing music (violin, piano, mandolin), rock climbing, running, biking, reading, gardening, and generally just being outside. Oh, and baking. My proudest baking achievement:
Hiking and camping (on a quest to be a ADK 46er), golf, creative non-fiction, little league baseball nurturer/coach for my sons and cooking.
My proudest accomplishment, Porchetta (a 12-pound pork belly wrapped around a 6-pound pork loin stuffed with garlic, fennel, basil, parsely, sage, rosemary, and orange zest):
