What's your Hobby?

[jilongie]

what are your hobbies???

I would like to exclude reading for obvious reasons. give more of a physical hobby e.g.

riding a bicycle, wordcross, gaming, planning for world destruction, etc etc..

[Prunesquallor]

Reading and walking at the same time? Does that count?

[dandylion]

Does ebay count?

[dalidaisy]

I like to hike out to the middle of nowhere & find a nice place to read...

[Bobert]

planning for world destruction, etc etc..

Uh oh! He's onto us! :disguise:

[Storm]

I play tennis. I love it.

[SRVcardsfan27]

I used to collect sports cards; I have a huge collection. Now, like Storm, I play tennis all the time. I can't get enough of it. I wish I would have been in to it in high school, but I just started playing last May. I also enjoy baseball.

[Night Runner]

Web surfing, science fiction, making money.

[Storm]

Tennis the perfect INTJ sport. The whole game is strategy and you only play against 1 or 2 other people.

[Harmony]

Hmm... Tennis, volleyball, softball/baseball, ultimate frisbee, reading, writing, swimming, football, hockey, horse shoes.....

[JTG1984]

snowboarding, lifting weights, disc golf

[une fille]

I would like to exclude reading for obvious reasons.
Cruel! :(


I like to go for walks. I would jog to look busy or something, but I'm asthmatic and would keel over and die after ten minutes.
I want to play chess more, but I can't decide who I'm going to coerce into playing a strategy game with me.. And I don't like to play online.
Uhmm. I draw! And write a bit.
*thinks* (which should be a hobby)
I like piano as well, but I'm discouraged these days.

[Outdoorwhale]

Gah...

Tennis, Racquetball, painting, drawing, languages, airsoft/mil. recreation, violin, guitar, cooking(too many allergies in my house though), yugioh, some 360 games, chess, history and gun ranges. Pretty much anything I get my hands on I perfect into a hobby.

I also play this really dumb game where I have to keep a nerf ball in the air while alternating hands and palm/backhand.

airsoft/mil recreation

[intellael]

Daydreaming was the top hobby. In an effort to participate in the real world, I am interested in the following: photography, tennis, chess, jogging, electronics, and web surfing. Possibly programming and gaming in the near future...

[Polymath]

Playing instruments and a little bit of gaming. I don't think there's really anything else that would count as a hobby of mine ATM, if (online) reading doesn't count. I'm going to try to get around to teaching myself to paint and sculpt in the near future since I showed some potential as a kid.

[navelgazer]

My newest hobby is yoga, but I like to dabble in Go, tai chi & cooking. Right now I am making a lot of sorbets.

[Monte314]

Astronomy...

[Autoptic]

'Brooding, waiting, pining, and I lift weights though not as much as seems to be assumed.

[Cthulhu]

Monte's monster puts my telescope to shame. Astronomy's something I've taken up recently.

Golf is another hobby, and I used to breed parrots but I gave the flock to someone else and just kept one as a pet.

[True Rune]

Gaming(Role playing games), surfing internet(Message boards), and martial arts.(Weapons mainly. I want to get into all kinds of different styles, but I know I prefer strikes to grappling.)

[WaeV]

Halo Modding, replaying Halo, Civ III, and the Half-Life series, programming, random projects.

[dylanamus]

Cycling, lifting weights, modifying cars, cooking, camping, and the usual intj tidbits.

[azelismia]

Golf, antiques (jungendstil art glass in particular, my house is a museum) computer games. recently I've been learning a bit about gemology. arm chair psychology.

[qwerty123]

Tennis the perfect INTJ sport. The whole game is strategy and you only play against 1 or 2 other people.


Storm, this is true, I never thought about it before. I played in high school, and miss it now.

I modify cars, read, read, exercise (run, bike), spend time each week with a few close friends. Collect coins, go for drives and walks to scenic places. Coffee, wine, hoppy beer.

[Doppelbock]

Gaming, reading, watching good (by my definition) movies, reading, blogging, reading, plotting global domination, reading, and probably reading.

[jilongie]

Uh oh! He's onto us! :disguise:

*grin* dosen't every INTJ fantasize about this at times??

im seeing very few gamers and car modders haha...
I'm semi into gaming (but very addicted at times), due to me playing electronic games since I was 3 yrs old (It was the time snes got popular).
Aside from tons of time I spend on my computer reading stuff, my hobbies are gaming, bit of instrument playing, modifying cars/motorcycle, day dreaming while listening to music (more like intense thinking).

thx to whoever relocated this thread !

It's no fantasy. :lipsrsealed:

I'm a loaded pistol who likes piña coladas and getting caught in the rain.

[Dreamshaper]

Writing, reading, drawing, video games, languages, avoiding people, taking over the world...

[OneHertz]

gaming, making computers go fast... that's about it. Used to be really into badminton, but I dont have time anymore.

[Farmer Joe]

I enjoy playing football and baseball, hunting and fishing, playing various card games (particularly euchre), farming and gardening (could you guess?), and managing my woodlot. I'm definitely a hobby person.

[Brittle]

Writing... and more specifically, writing strongly worded letters to various people/organisations :p

Cooking and nutrition

Researching ways to make our new house as environmentally friendly and cost-effective as possible

Logic puzzles

Languages

Arm-chair psychology

...And now that I'm getting my health and stamina back I'm looking forward to getting back into

Dancing (Latin/Ballroom)

Strength training

[Lee Strong]

I like reading, online gaming, web designing and flying.
I'm actually working on my Private Pilots License, and maybe in the future if I progress with the license get a job in the aviation industry.
I'm not really a sporty person, a few years ago maybe but not any more.

[tntblaster]

Heh.. Tennis is on my list of things to learn this year...

Winemaking, gardening/landscaping, xbox, driving down streets that i never use... just to see what's there. Golf.

[Mozzes]

Video games, fantasy sports, mathematics and bouldering.

Oh, and gambling. 7-card stud hi/lo and pot limit Omaha hi/lo are my favorites although I'll try just about anything.

[dotchje]

Walking looking at the ground for insects, plants, stones...while smoking a big cigar. I ld like to start book binding again, I loved it.

[Trenchant1]

I don't have any hobbies, as such. Not like people who collect stamps and stand by railway lines writing down train numbers. I play the guitar occasionally but the second and third frets are worn, so the guitar makes a horrible noise when I play. It wasn't that good before the frets got worn, to be honest. I watch good quality films and television but I don't waste my time on rubbish. I like cooking and am pretty good at it. I am obsessed with the European Union and the way it is taking over the countries of Europe (I hate it deeply - the EU, not Europe. I love Europe). These are things I enjoy or spend time on but I wouldn't call them hobbies.

Oh, and I like coming on here. Oh, yes. I play darts for a local team. I forgot about that. I'm playing tonight, actually. First game of the new season tonight. We were beaten to the top position by one point last season. Very upsetting. I should be practising but I can't be bothered.

[ranwayslo]

Working, pondering, thinking, thinking and pondering about working, working while pondering about thinking. Thinking about working on pondering. But you get the point.

I read so much that it can't be considered a hobby so much as a compulsion.

[Daimai]

I like to play Chess and World of Warcraft :)

[Thinker]

Fly fishing...mainly freshwater for trout/salmon.
I also tie my own flies and have made a few flyrods.

Re-afforestation - We have a small property which was cleared of trees. Over the last 15 years I have planted around 10,000 trees and shrubs. This keeps me pretty busy. Some of the trees are now around 15 to 20 metres tall (50 to 60 feet).

Other than these, reading and travelling.

[music221]

Skateboarding, playing guitar, writing algorithms. :)

[jilongie]

bump - to keep it going

[DanteFalling]

INTJ Forum j/k

Horrific addiction to the internet and manuals and textbooks.

Reading, Writing, Painting, Piano, Guitar

occasional Walks, Racquetball, and Swimming

[SeaCzar]

Cycling, anything to do with the ocean. I am a keen bird watcher as well. I have always been fascinated by birds.

[MintOreo]

Reading, drawing, woodworking (whittling and building), birds (I raise budgies and chickens), music (violin and piano), gardening and archery are the main ones.

[eckz]

Photography, movie-making, cycling, restaurant hunting...

I love music scores by the likes of John Williams, Hans Zimmer etc, but I'm not musically trained, else I think composing would be another hobby I did add on in a blink

[dissident]

I like to hike out to the middle of nowhere & find a nice place to read...

that sounds really fun.

Hobby hmm... does jogging count? I have houseplants... collect coins... read books?

Most important for me is practicing my spiritual stuff.. undoing personal karma, things like that. Yep I'm strange.

For me the best hobby of all would just be laying outside in a warm place away from people reading and relaxing.

Dismantling things (this was a BIG problem when i was younger. I'd literally walk around everywhere with a screw driver and spanner and break apart anything that struck my fancy. From fans to computers, even the family toaster. Cba to put it back together, though.)
and... I think I'll stop. There are a few more, but i cant recall them atm.

[Plastikcat]

Retro-Video game junkie; collecting rare obscure video games, vintage-electronic nostalgia, upgrading my moped/scooter, watching the occasional "slice of life" japanimtion series.

[Quite8the8bell]

I play chess with myself, almost every day. I play bagpipes that's always fun...and exhausting.

[Bregen]

Water gardening … which provided a funny story today …

I was cleaning debris out of the pond this sunny afternoon because the toads are starting to mate. I noticed this one pair where the female was large, bloated, immobile, limbs splayed out, ghostly pale in color, and listing in a very odd neutrally buoyant pose (a number of you are forming snarky rejoinders, but hold on). Because this is exactly what a dead amphibian looks like after sitting at the bottom of the pond at the end of winter, I thought to myself that the male toad had made a really unfortunate hook up. I fished the pair out of the pond with the skimmer and deposited them in the far corner of the yard only to discover that there were two males on the carcass – maybe the first observed case in the wild of a necrophilic toad ménage a trois.

About an hour later as I’m sitting at the pond enjoying the sun the female toad clambers over a rock with one guy on her back and drops into the water. Toads usually avoid people, but these two floated up to the surface, paddled toward me and gave me the evilest look you can imagine. I think they would have flipped me off except for the fact that with only four fingers there’s really no unambiguous middle digit.

[PeterIMC]

Hmm... Tennis, volleyball, softball/baseball, ultimate frisbee, reading, writing, swimming, football, hockey, horse shoes.....

Are you sure? I think the question was actually about being actively involved in the hobby, not things you do once a year.

[Synapse]

Let's see:

guitar, videogames (I dunno if that counts), reading, writing, making models, building puzzles, squash, tennis, solving various things, modding computers, building computers, browsing the Internet, various forums.

I'm sure many people have many more, but that's all I could think of.

[Merle]

Reading isn't my hobby, it's my way of life... so I'm not including that.

I make jewellery, mostly as a hobby because I enjoy the intricacy of the work and the pleasure of making something beautiful...and as a way of having nice personal gifts to give to people... but am thinking of opening a little internet shop and seeing if anything sells, it will still be a hobby though, not really looking to make money from it, maybe just enough to cover supplies.

[jilongie]

Reading isn't my hobby, it's my way of life... so I'm not including that.

I've also turned into a crazy fish person. I got my boyfriend an aquarium for Chanukkah and we've since both turned obsessed. He keeps talking (and I'm fairly certain that he's serious) about getting a bigger apartment so he can get another aquarium. His is only 10 gallons and he's frantically trying to figure out just where in his apartment he could place a 20 gallon aquarium he desperately wants to trade up for. We even play "fantasy aquarium building" when we're bored.

I'd also like to try belly-dancing


Oh...and reading ;)

[squishee]

This was a real eye opener for me, wow. Tennis? I LOVE tennis. Although I haven't played for quite a while, I don't know anyone that plays. And I'd rather not play at all than play with a beginner...lol. I also enjoyed downhill skiing but don't get to do that much either.

As for now, I like crafts (mainly making jewelry with resin), and survival-horror video games. I like Japanese horror movies (not US remakes, but the real ones). I LOVE thrift stores, rummage sales, and antiques.
