Are Hobbies bad for you?

[TheLordOfChaos201]

What are some of your hobbies and what have you ever achieved with them?

they say the more hobbies you have the more successful you are, but is that really true or does your success merely allow you more hobbies?

which is the actual catalyst to your achievement, do you achieve because you are talented or are you talented because you succeed?

this is the grand question:
-Are hobbies a waste of time?
-Should you rather spend that time studying/working and watching tv?
-Do your friends and family really get any say in whether hobbies are good for you?
-and what is a hobby to you?

-Are hobbies a waste of time?

No.

-Should you rather spend that time studying/working and watching tv?

No.

-Do your friends and family really get any say in whether hobbies are good for you?

No.

-and what is a hobbies to you?

This question doesn't even make sense.

 

[TheLordOfChaos201]

No.

No.

No.

This question doesn't even make sense.

thanks for the error check, it's fixed now

-Are hobbies a waste of time?

A better question would be are things you do in your freetime a waste of time? And the answer is no.

-Should you rather spend that time studying/working and watching tv?

Way too much work without rest and something to keep your mind away from it will lead to serious issues. Maybe that's what hobbies are for?

-Do your friends and family really get any say in whether hobbies are good for you?

Nope.

-and what is a hobby to you?

Something you do in your freetime and something you enjoy. Also as Zombie said the question really makes no sense.

I find this whole thing confusing. What do you live and work and achieve success for besides supporting hobbies? I mean yes there are responsibilities like being financial support for dependents, but working solely to fulfill responsibilities is typical for an ant or a bee in a hive, not for a human being.

Ultimately, the reason anyone tries to be "successful" is to support activities they want to do for its own sake. Like hobbies.

that is a very cool answer considering my father believes the only purpose for life is work, and I'm not exaggerating... this is what he said

 

[Kaijyuu]

Oh, I believe it. My parents were similar. My father was worried that he'd be incredibly bored after retiring, since he wouldn't have as much work to do. Fortunately I got him to pick up reading at least.

lol that's bad

I think our parents work so much that they forget the reason they started working in the first place. your point is valid and I wish I could rep you for it, but since the new hive I have been un-able to rep from my phone.

one last question for you. do you think hobbies make you a better smarter person?

 

[Devine]

Yes, a hobby gave me aids one day.

 

[TheLordOfChaos201]

Yes, a hobby gave me aids one day.

that's cool, what are their names?

 

[Zombie]

that's cool, what are their names?

John and Svetlana.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Are you bad for you?

 

[Drake]

I tried hobbies once via needle, couldn't think straight for centuries.

 

[Shar Dundred]

Is @Arowanna bad for @San?
Or is @San for @Arowanna?
Is @San bad for @San?
Is @Arowanna bad for @Arowanna?
Is @Drake. bad for @Drake.?

So many questions, so little time.

 

[Arowanna]

Or is @San for @Arowanna?

Did I win a potted plant?

 

[Shar Dundred]

Did I win a potted plant?

You tell me.

 

[Arowanna]

I WON! I'M FREE!

 

[TheLordOfChaos201]

I also did that, poppy seeds, interesting results

they say there are no such things as super powers but... poppy seeds defiantly give you super strength

 

[Shar Dundred]

I WON! I'M FREE!

No, you are not and will never be.

 

[WhiteFang]

@Arowanna IS FREE!!

 

[San]

Are san bad for your hobbies?

 

[Kaijyuu]

do you think hobbies make you a better smarter person?

In most cases, probably. You certainly get better at whatever the field of interest your hobby is in (so, painters certainly have better understanding of aesthetic design than they would otherwise, even if their paintings are crap).

 

[Cherrymage]

@Arowanna IS FREE!!

Yes, I second that! @Arowanna is free!!!

 

[Shar Dundred]

Yes, I second that! @Arowanna is free!!!

It cannot be.

 

[TheLordOfChaos201]

what is your favourite hobby?

my favourite hobby is combative sword fighting, but I haven't done that for years

the fact that you could hit someone in the face with a bamboo rode, and they had to be cool about it... that was the best feeling in the would.

it was even better when we were still noobs, we had to say, 'thank you, it was a good fight'

hahaha!

 

[chobibo]

"bamboo rode"
Atatatatatatata

 

[TheLordOfChaos201]

"bamboo rode"
Atatatatatatata

yep that same thing

I forget it's proper name but we sometimes called it buki even though I later found out that is not it's name

"-Are hobbies a waste of time?"
A lot of women say they hate their hubbys, so it's probably a bad thing if you're female.

"-Should you rather spend that time studying/working and watching tv?"
Why?

"-Do your friends and family really get any say in whether hobbies are good for you?"
What? Do you live in the basement?

"-and what is a hobby to you?"
Am male so dunno... Try asking Directive255, he's a hubby, a husbando™ to be precise.

 

[Pinzu]

Yes some hobbies are a waste of time, but then again, it's up to you what you define what you prioritize. Regardless of what metric you use, some hobbies are gonna score higher than others and you decide where the treshold is.

 

[fladdermasken]

We've clearly all agreed that hobbies are or are not bad for you.

But what about hobbits?

Leave your answer itt.

invisible short creatures who like playing tricks on people

[chobibo]

"What about hobbits?"
Crunchy crackers made from imported Chinese rice, harvested by underpaid laborers, that are salty and bitter.
