What do you do for fun or to kill time Basil (other than Maple if you still play)?
I do parkour/freerunning and this thread may or may not have been an excuse to post [url=http://youtu.be/teCLT9lYZdg]this[/url] video of stuff that I really need to clean up

[quote=BoredAF]That's a pretty cool hobby. Why the super baggy pants though?[/quote]

Extremely comfy and they look cool in mid air.

I used to do archery fairly often, I also like photography and stargazing. I'm saving up some cash to get my own telescope.

Freerunning and Tricking. Might as well use this as an excuse to post mine too since you tagged me.

Also breakdancing occasionally and watching anime in whatever time is left over.

[quote=SomeJello]Haha I remember when I used to be really in to parkour I'd hate when people would mix up the difference between parkour and freerunning.

Anyway now what I usually do is

-Gym
-Motorbikes
-Video games

I also really started to enjoy making model airplanes recently[/quote]

@DogPukeYellow: Kinda just started self teaching at first back in like April/May last year. @ssj3500 inspired me to start because he's a crazy beast and then I started going to the gym for drop in a lot and I liked doing the classes (Stephen too OP) because it gave me little things to focus on and then I could just hang around as long as I wanted after.

[quote=SuberKieran]Sort of being taught, we have a gym in Toronto and that's where I started with flips but everything else I can do was started outside. Also the community is really welcoming and if you do find a meet or anything I'm sure they'll be happy to help you learn.[/quote]

My goodness, is it the Monkey Vault? I go there too, if so. It took me a while to stop constantly sanitizing my hands. The facility itself is nice but the surrounding area looks horrible. Who trained you?

Anyhow, that and MMA. I've been watching it since late 2012 some time and figured I'd finally take it up as of early 2014.

P.S. Too many people wear hats.

I enjoy taking care of animals and maintaining a salt-water aquarium. Reading philosophical or historical books while drinking fine tea or the occassional cup of coffee. Been practicing drawing and reading up on photography. I used to work out a lot too until I injured my arm but plan to continue after surgery. I like discovering new and old music, especially from the 60's. Recently been into watching and analyzing more films and just began watching some anime.

Aside from that, I love community service and until recently, my biggest hobby was drug consumption. Something always fascinated me about altered states of minds and I've tried some very unique drug cocktails. I plan on quitting drugs though and my main hobby will always be alcohol consumption. Love the taste and effects. I enjoy being able to stay drinking all day long without ever getting drunk. Consequently, I usually have a fairly high tolerance usually consuming about a liter's worth of hard alcohol throughout the day if I have no formal obligations. I srs drink more for the taste, never have had a problem not drinking if I don't have access to it.

@Plenair Freerunning is more for show and parkour is about efficiency. Most people don't really care though and if you're interested in learning [url=http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAC90ED58CDC8A748]this[/url] might help you get started. Sort of being taught, we have a gym in Toronto and that's where I started with flips but everything else I can do was started outside. Also the community is really welcoming and if you do find a meet or anything I'm sure they'll be happy to help you learn.
P.S. Google is your friend.
