And then brutal beating proceeds

Its more of a time waster. I consider actually hobbies to be things that are constructive or involve picking up skills like learning a new language or something.

>>714408290
Makes normalfags cry. The original scene of this said "watching movies".

>>714408608
like reading books

>>714408608
Learning a language is not a hobby in any sense of the word.
A hobby must move your body.
A sport is a hobby
Not reading fucking books,cooking or learning a fucking language.

Is watching movies or reading books also "having no hobby"?

I'm afraid her only choice is to try and groom a younger man to be her partner.

>>714408893
so playing an instrument, computer programming, drawing art, etc aren't hobbies then?

its a trick question, the answer is "i love working and would do it for free if i could"

>>714409354
Obviously not, what kind of question is that?
Playing football with friends is a hobby not playing an instrument JUST LMAO

>>714409479
kicking balls around in a children's game is a hobby?

Peak hobby yes.

>>714408608
What you just said is the complete opposite of the truth.

The definition of a hobby is something you do in your spare time. It's intentionally unproductive. It's just meant to be fun or waste time. The term comes from hobby-horse, which were small horses, and the name was then applied to horse heads on a stick, which was then applied to any frivolous activity.

Video games are literally a hobby. People play games (video games, tabletop games, sports, hide and seek, etc.) because we have a play circuit in our brain. Play is evolutionarily advantageous (all mammals do it and some non-mammals) because it's a safe way of improving one's abilities, giving them practice in the event something serious ever happens. It can also be used to teach and build social bonds.

Meanwhile, everyone considers collecting stamps to be a hobby...

The brain is the most important part of your body.

>>714408290
Because anons are retards that barely know english.

>>714408608
Because most people just play as a time waster. There's a difference between having movies be your hobby and just watching movies to pass the time. Unironically, if you post on here, games are very likely one of your hobbies.

hobby

I mean, yeah, I'd agree. It's kinda' sad watching stadiums of grown men cheer on black guys throwing balls back and forth to each other.

>>714409792
Women really are like this. They sleep around with whatever "powerful" men they can find and then when they realize their biological clock is running out they start opening up job applications. They'll walk up to nerds and soibois like, "Let me see your resume, please."

Women can only love evil men.

so playing football isn't a hobby unless you collect balles or what?

>>714408290
It is. I still usually say hiking when people ask me though.
>>714408214
I know women who paint and read a lot but a large amount of them watch TV (sometimes the same shows over and over) and scroll social media.

>>714413736
Correct, football is a sport, or a pastime. Collecting football memorabilia is a hobby.
Playing video games is a pastime. Collecting video games is a hobby.

This is what women really want

>I still usually say hiking when people ask me though.
Hiking is less of a hobby than most things, it's just going on walks except at an angle. The people who say video games aren't a hobby or whatever, when you ask them what theirs are, will inevitably say things like this. Hiking, walks, "travelling", "eating out", just complete nonsense that doesn't involve your brain engagement in almost any way, I guess hiking involves your brain checking to make sure you don't fall over that's about it
A hobby has to be something your brain is actively engaged in thinking about and solving, in that regard watching tv that isn't just slop like reality shows or whatever but a mystery to solve and a plot to unravel is more of a hobby than 95% of what people like this lady think are hobbies

>>714407882 (OP)
I never bring up video games if asked about my hobbies

Just lie and say basic stuff: Illiad/Odyssey, dostoevsky, shakespeare plays, saint thomas confessions, etc. I started sneaking in actual fanfics and passing them as high class literature because your average HR retard has never touched a book on his life.

So two things you can do via video games. Factorio alone is lauded by actual businesses as a good tool for testing and learning not only industrial management, but also motherboard development and chipset architecture and design ironically enough.

It's pure consumption. It's like saying eating or watching TV is your hobby. When people ask about "hobbies", they want to know what someone does that's creative (woodworking, sewing, etc.) or active (exercising, bird watching, etc.) in some way. Gaming can only very loosely be considered an "active" hobby, so a lot of people find it boring to hear someone talk about it.

That said, my wife actually enjoys listening to me sperg out about the history of some game franchise or obscure lore from some game I'm playing. I don't talk about that shit at work or with most family though for the reasons above.

Daily reminder that compared to the US, Japan today has less economic inequality, a longer average lifespan, ranks higher in average IQ, more paid maternal leave and paid vacations, far less crime, far less violent crime, far less firearm crime, far fewer homicides, ranks much higher on the PISA assessment scores, has better infrastructure, a lower obesity rate, higher cancer survival rate, a lower crude suicide rate (sic, per latest data [2021]), a much higher return rate for lost items, less child poverty, far less expensive housing, a higher Inequality-adjusted human development index, and has more cities scoring higher in multiple quality of life rankings across various indicators, just to name a few.

By telling you that the clip is doctored. I'm too lazy to check what is actually said but I think it's something along the lines of:

>I like travelling.
>But isn't that the same as having no hobby?

The movie in question is about a middle-aged, unmarried Japanese woman realizing she leads a very unfulfilling and empty life, who focused everything on her career at the expense of fulfilling her need for companionship and raising a family.

The entire premise of the movie would send western feminists into a frenzy.

>>714407882 (OP)

>>714424901
What does that mean?

>>714407882 (OP)
I've found that most people respond more positively to being told "i enjoy watching movies" than "playing video games".
not sure why, as theyre both just the junkfood of hobbies, where you just consume video entertainment, but one has more of a positive connotation

>>714425152
It means that playing video games is a useless pasttime that can't qualify as a proper hobby because it doesn't give you any useful skills

>>714408010

>>714424916
No, women just enjoy listening to guys they like ramble about something they enjoy, as long as he isn't berating her for not knowing as much as he does.

>>714425310
Most hobbies don't and are only ever a time and money sink but that's okay. It's supposed to be something fun you enjoy. People who think everything you do has to be some marketable skill and you can't draw doodles without a plan how to monetise it as a "side hustle" are workaholic retards.

It's because video games are still seen as for children or the immature. This is partially because of the very name "video games" where "games" has connotations of not really being for adults unless it is used a singular word to refer to a sports match.

Why does no one know the definition of hobby? Whatever your dad told you while beating your ass wasn't right.

hob·by1
/ˈhäbē/
noun
noun: hobby; plural noun: hobbies

1.
an activity done regularly in one's leisure time for pleasure.
"her hobbies are reading and gardening"


It's that simple and your dad is retarded.

>>714408608
Yeah, hobbies like reading, woodcrafting (non-professionally), music (non-professionally, all of these things do not matter. A hobby is just a job you choose to do, and someone must always be doing a job. Work is the only thing humans are good for after all, you have your constructive hobby so your boss can spent his time fishing (not a hobby, not a job)

people just get angry cause you can put thousands of hours into a $5 game and that is le bad cause its not real or something

That's not what that blogpost says, it's talking about the difference between average and median. Regardless, it's difficult to compare apples to oranges, since most people report household incomes instead of individual incomes and some people take net while some take gross, it's difficult to find actually good comparisons.

Regardless, Americans make more and everyone knew that already.

>>714426351

You probably think friendships are deeper than they are.

>>714427214
People tend to be more receptive to things they have a point of reference for. As an example, me telling someone I sail tends to generate a greater positive reaction and draws out more engagement than me telling them I paint minis and create dioramas of historical battles. People tend to be more familiar with sailing than they are with miniature models or pre-1940s history.
Another, more extreme, example would be with my wife. She tells people she does sewing and sculpting, not that she makes lewd, handcrafted models of random doujinshi characters she finds cute.

>>714411059
You're right. The Deadpool killer brutally killed multiple women and still had girls lining up for him. Also men figured this out centuries ago.

>The majority of the habitual female criminals are connected with some low brute of a man who is either a prize-fighter, or cab-driver, or private soldier, or pickpocket, or coiner, or costermonger, or, indeed, some such character. And for this lazy and ruffian fellow, there is no indignity nor cruelty they will not suffer, no atrocity that they are not ready to commit, and no infamy that they will hesitate to perform, in order that he may continue to live half-luxuriously with them in their shame. A virtuous woman’s love is never of the same intensely passionate and self-denying character as marks the affection of her most abject sister. …


We soon, however, discovered that they care little about the looks of their paramours, for not only are the majority of such men coarse and satyr-like in feature, but these women, generally speaking, have even a latent contempt for the class of public performers who are wont to trick their persons out to the best possible advantage. Again, it is not honour, nor dignity of character, nor chivalry of nature, nor energy of disposition, nor generosity of temperament that they think the highest attributes of man; for the fellows with whom they cohabit are mean and base to the last degree, selfish as swine, idle as lazzaroni, and ruffianly even as savages in their treatment of females.
