ATTN: Ages 18-25, what do you besides smoke?

Okay, I come across this question a lot, maybe it's just me...

But I get asked "what are you into?" from either family/co-workers/new friends/etc

And I tend to think right away, 'besides smoke? i have not a clue...'

Now, I thought into it, and if you're around 18-25 you may also ponder this question, or do you?

I find it hard these days, and I feel I was born into the wrong era.

I love smoking, but besides work, it's all I do!

So out of curiosity what do you all do besides the usual, smoking, working, schooling, drinking?

I personally just like frisbee...

But I'm starting to think these days are growing worse and worse and everyone just sits on the computer??

Anyway, any help would be nice!

longboarding, guitar, videogames, mixing on my brother's turntables

the list is shorter than I expected

Damn... my list also is very short... let me think... man... actually there is not much else... i sleep a lot... i cook my own food... i spend more time than i wished at the internet... i think a lot... and smoke, of course. Interestingly, i only smoke once a day... but its the days best time! :jointsmile::rastasmoke:

play music, listen to music, weed, girls, cooking, politics, fishing, pumping iron, and watching an ass of THC (the history channel.. ha) and the Discovery channel

I play lacrosse about 4 or 5 times a week with a pretty chill league, just a bunch of guys who like to get together and play, its not serious or anything. I try not to set aside time in my day just to smoke, i like to get high and continue my day uninterrupted.

at 22 i think i got in on the tail-end of riding bikes and playing running bases and all that shit. i was outside 24/7 it seemed like when i was like 5-to-16 years of age. then the internetweb came in and sort of took everyone over. nowadays middle-school age kids don't do much besides AIM, myspace and world of warcraft.

'pro gaming' is to blame i think. i cant tell ya the number of nerdburger younger siblings i meet that want to be 'pro gamers.'

kind of sad really but its a new era i guess...

and those kids aren't as bad as the huge groups of tight-jeans wearing emo scenester kids. theyre fcking EVERYWHERE in my town, groups of like 15 and 20 of them loitering outside wawa and burger king. the 12 year old girls around here dress all emo and wear clothes girls shouldn't really be wearing til theyre 18. THE PARENTS DO NOTHING!! nothing whatsoever. they're all fat housewives with opiate addictions. i live in agrestic =/

Pro gamer? WTF is a pro gamer? You get paid to play games?

Holy shit, where do I sign up?

dude I know how you feel, same here I can't even come up with a list! I don't know if it's a new era or not but I don't like it. And since I've moved around so much growing up I was never in one place long enough to get to know tons of ppl, just a select few who now, I know nothing about.

so... yea I feel like I'm getting old and doing nothing, while tons of excitement happens all around me. I guess if you have lots of $$ options are unlimited

my brother was 'paid to game' for a while... sponsored by nvidia and other large companies to compete in online tournaments.

blizzard/vivendi interactive awards the best WoW players with a million+ in cash and prizes every year in arena tournaments.

the catch? you can have no. life. whatsoever. outside of your room or wherever your computer is.

its like 'going pro' in anything else. you don't do much else besides it. but its much more accessible to your average person than real sports.

I was just thinking about this the other day, I admit that I spend too much time just smoking and sitting on the computer...

I go to school but I have a really easy semester this year, outside of school I play on 2 hockey teams, and snowboard in the winter. It is hard to be active and outside when it is very cold with lots of snow. I guess there is always indoor sports like racquetball to take up but there is no court close enough to where I live.

In summer I try and be a bit more active and get outside more, play frisbee, disc golf, golf, summer hockey, and wakeboard.

A lot of the time I do spend on my computer is watching TV shows or movies, so really it has just replaced my TV a lot of the time.

CyberAthlete Professional League.

I used to play in CPL and CAL. I've won money 3 years when I went to CPL. I haven't played since Counterstrike 2 came out and the original Counterstrike has become less popular.

There's something like 250k-300k in cash prizes each year I think.

I don't think you could make a career out of it. But if you want to make 20k split between 5 people and you've very good. VERY GOOD then go for it. You'll be playing against people from across the globe in Dallas, TX.

It was fine for my younger years, but now I make too much money to even waste my time. :thumbsup:

Aside from smoking.. hrm. I'm a few years older than 25 (28 actually), but I still feel like I'm 18. So here we go.

1. Gardening: due to cannabis related activities I've actually discovered I like growing and learning about horticulture. It's going great.

2. Working out: 1-1.5 hours a day at the gym, either lifting weights or doing cardio.

3. Work on my telescope: I am in the middle of building a Dobsonian telescope at home out of just parts you can get online and at home depot. It's a fun little project.

4. Work on cars: I work on old 67 camaros to Audi's. I love cars so much. I haven't done a full on restore yet but as soon as I get my own garage then You better believe I'm going to start doing a tear down of something.

5. Play guitar, piano, drums. Sequence a track with my synth.

6. Further my math/science knowledge. I am a sort've undercover nerd of sorts. People always underestimate my intelligence because of the way I look/dress.

7. Go shopping. Yep.. I like to shop for clothes. Really though I like to shop for crap I shouldn't be buying. Like a new 65" LCD TV.

8. Watch TV: Mostly all I watch is Comedy Central, The History Channel, Discovery, and The Cartoon Network.

9. Read: I spend alot of time Reading. I'm a CCIE and studying to become a JNCIE. I also read alot of text books even though I'm not in college.

10. Call up friends just to hang with. Nothing wrong with just calling up some friends when you're bored.

11. Boxing: I used to box from age 15-23. I love boxing. I still go spar to this day about once a week. I'll hit the heavy bag and double ended bag throughout the week to practice punches and slips etc etc.

12. Think of stupid shit: ie: Building a computer inside of a broken dreamcast I have, or building an isolation chamber or grow room for a single plant out of some 48" T12's and a SonoTube (look it up).

13. Go to the Zoo: I love the zoo. I love animals.. nuff said.

14. Play with my Dog/Cat: I love my animals. When all else fails to entertain me or if I'm just wanting some company then I can always rely on them. They're just love so unconditionally. I love animals.

15. Video Games: Mostly RPG's or 2D fighters where I can lay down some mad combos. I'm good at Tekken/Soul Caliber type games also; they're just not my preferred.

16. Sex: I'd be lying if I said I didn't actively pursue this to make sure I get my Quint-Weekly Fill. :thumbsup:

17. Work: Just ending it here. Tired of typing and I want to go vape up.

For me, in the winter I never get outside. I used to love it when I was a little kid but I can't stand the cold now. I usually play video games, watch tv, hang out inside with friends, or screw around with computers. In the summer though I try to get out more. I walk almost everywhere, go swimming, skateboarding. I gotta get my bike fixed so I can ride that around town when the weather is nice enough.

this happens to me all the time lol
the questions i hate are
what are you into
what do you do in your spare time
what do you enjoy doing
do you have any hobbies

My brain thinks

Weed
Smoke
Smoking
Getting Stoned

my mouth says

Nope




what do i do..
get stoned, make bongs, get drunk, go pubs, weights, sleep, eat, watch tv, play with my dog, grow weed occasionally and make things.

i think there are a few things that cause this problem with people our age tho

the internet is a main one if you ask me..well this is a big problem because unless you make videos for the internet because then people are like ohh you like to make films :) but if not, when people ask there not really much to say yo do..becuase theres tooo much to list and allot of it is often random things

also the fact that most things i do involve technology ( like computers, tv, xbox ect..)



ahhh i give up im not really sure what the problem is lol

i just no in the eyes of my parents & probation officer i have no hobbies or interests, and that not true!

Lift, Smoke, and Drink myself silly 4 nights a week. Ah college.

Pinks it is! what yr TA? mines an 88 mustang GT w/5.0 347 Stroker, viper spec t56 with 4.10 rear etc.
But yeah I guess I do work on my car...it's just been so long because winter sucks all forms of ass. :jointsmile:

people who dont smoke have the same problem too. they come home from work, put on the sitcoms and the computer, make some dinner and get to sleep so they can make it to work the next day. its a mundane cycle we all get stuck in sometimes. I think alot people have lost their passion for their hobbies, smoker or not.

db:smokin:

my list would be sort of short if i just generalized, but im not going to here:
Going to the park, and :Swinging, making fun of the other people, people watching, talking loud about how emo its getting whilst near emo's. and thats at the park
Driving, really fast with loud music, even to work.
Fishing, want to fish high, havent yet though, in fact i just got my license and early season gear yesterday.
Chilling with friends, even if we are just sitting around its fun
eating
working
playing video games, i love guitar hero, atm im playing oblivion
listening to music, just laying on my bed chilling to some radiohead or something.
i got to parties, but since i really only like to drink captain morgan and im not 21 and i dont really ever buy alcohol seeing as i dont know anyone 21 i just smoke there, but chilling at parties.
Getting really fucked up.
computer use still takes up several hours everyday due to its ability to be on 24 hours a day. so in my free time really. when im not doing the above.

CCNA is cake. 4 weeks of solid study and you'll be fine. Maybe a simulator but I don't even think that's necessary as the CCNA is mostly memorization and not too many concepts etc etc.

I got my CCIE in R&S, I plan on trying to get another CCIE after I test for my JNCIE (probably another year or so of studying). I think I want to get something in security. Security is a very big field right now.

I had a 90 foxbody. 4.10 gears were just too much for me. I didn't have a first and a very short second. I stuck with 3.73 :thumbsup:

I will not own a TV because of the TV Trap!!!
Besides smoking, I run a lab, I do a lot of gardening including legal vegetables, I teach legal medical users in my area how to grow indoors, I love to go out for great food in funky hole in the wall places, I hang out with my funny bulldog, I own a multi-family house that requires lots of attention, I find time to spend with my friends fishing and exploring the outdoors, and I'm in the process of getting an organic produce/ sauces/ herb oils business up and running.
Arrgh. Sleep. That's one thing of which I do far too little!

That Stroker is a Bad Ass Hunk of Horses! This 350 ain't no WHOOSSSSy! Only thing is my rear gear is 4:11 posi track. It an automatic too.... I took this engine off a guy that had wrecked his TA. Mine is a 1985. I think his was a 2001. My car did have a Chevy 305 small block. That was a fast son of a gun,too! It was a top end runner!

Oh yeah? OH YEAH? All you badasses with your 5.0's and 5.7's are NOTHING compared to me and my MONSTER 3.8 '05 Buick Lesabre! :D

Before my kid was born, I had a Dodge Stealth VR4 with a twin turbo 3.0 that was pretty tricked out. It was kinda funny actually, I went and spent nearly $9k on a $4k car, and eventually had to sell it for about $6k because I needed the money. I installed suicide doors, brand new Mitsubishi 3000GT motor/transmission, D2 Racing coilover damper kit, custom exhaust & headers, racing wheels, 2500w stereo system, and more. I eventually had to sell one baby to be able to afford another one... I wanted to cry

I haven't completely lost my nerve, though. I've got a new GSX-R750 K7 sitting in my garage, so I can still race the big-blocks and Nopi street racers... I just can't do it on four wheels anymore.

I used to race DSMs. Eclipses/Talons not stealths/3000GT's. I used to love my car. It would destroy everything on the launch. All wheel drive with 400hp and 394 ft/lbs of torque.

I kept breaking transfer cases though. I got tired of breaking drive train parts and just sold the car.

Geez that was about 9 years ago.. almost 10. I'm getting old :(

Yup, mine was AWD, and was an absolute beast from the starting line. Really impressive for a 3.0... I miss that car dearly. Never got it out on a Dyno, but factory it was roughly 320 BHP, and I added quite a few options that bumped the HP considerably. I also shaved off as much weight as I could from the factory specs, and got it running exactly like I wanted it. Light and mean. Did I mention how dearly I miss that car?

I didn't race mine all that much, unless I was just feeling froggy. I was trying to turn it into a showcar, since you don't see too many Stealths/3000GTs with showcar status, but I had to sell it before it could become what I wanted it to. The only thing on that car that I consistently broke was the clutch. :cool:

Ooh, careful now... I may have a kid, but I can still get down on some winding twisties! :D

Way too cold for me to be riding to Massachusetts, though. Plus, if I were going to ride to the Berkshires, I'd have to go tandem w/the missus. And I don't think she's quite ready for that long of a ride. (She starts getting cranky after several hundred miles, so, nearly a THOUSAND probably wouldn't be feasible!)

But hey, if you ever plan to ride down to Deal's Gap and the Tail of the Dragon... I'll gladly come and ride along with ya! I haven't been over there in a couple of years. We'll just have to make sure we don't add anything to the 'tree of shame'! :jointsmile:

You've got to have interests outside of just getting high, or your life will become very dissatisfying very quickly. If you don't have a hobby outside of smoking, start easy --- maybe try pleasuring yourself.

I like gardening, astronomy, reading both fiction and non-fiction, almost anything sciencey, cooking, following news and politics, camping, hiking (or just walking around looking at things), having people over, making delicious cocktails, surfing "the Internets," and gettin' my sweet sweet lovin'.

im a nineteen yr old college kid..

which means i drink, smoke, party, but i also go to school to get a biology major,
love skateboarding, playing basektball, playin football, playin baseball.. women, hiking, backpacking, camping, swimming... riding a bike all around my town...

and i would say music is great,. dunno what i would do if there was no music..
