Favorite Pass-Times

[Dead Rain]

ok well this time i've really done it. i've gone farther into bordem than i could ever have imagined. so here ya go. the result of this borring mind of mine:

but it's pretty simple: what're some of your favorite pass-times?

[The Prince]

Sports Sports Sports exept for golf and soccer and teenis those aren't reallysports in my book :o

[black cloak]

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tennis is to a sport and it is very hard

Sports Sports Sports exept for golf and soccer and teenis those aren't reallysports in my book :o

[Monkeh]

Why are they not sports? Is it because you can't play them? lol. j/k's. I'm just wondering why you don't consider them sports.

[waterhogboy]

What do you think of cricket as a sport then?? A good old British game of two halves if ever i saw one!

[Smog]

I think that it would have to be C.D.S. (or for the less informed, Competitive Defence Shooting). It is alot of fun, the only problem is that the Tournaments are held on sundays :mad:.

[pacifiquesea]

*anyway* back on topic!
My favorite passtimes are making jewelry, reading, and writing.

[Dead Rain]

aww, poor smog. ;)

[The Prince]

Okay first to bc I didnt say those werent hard I just said that I dont consider them sports and second would you consider writing a poem a sport?it may be hard but its not a sport and finally Ill just keep my mouth shut on this subject so as not to offend anyone :)

[Smog]

Ok, you can't say that tennis, soccer, and golf arn't sports.
(Besides you don't make 21million a year writing poems, do you :p)

[HOTSTREAK]

I agree with TP about what is not a sport

[HOTSTREAK]

actully I agree with TP about soccer and golf but i think that tennis is a sport in a way

[lsipher]

Soccer is a sport, it's just, more of, a Eurpoean one. Tennis and golf were, traditionally, upper crust pastimes that have become sports.

Ice Hockey rules the universe, but Baseball, Basketball and Football rule the "States".

I love sports, movies, and books.

I've never liked baseball or basketball. Football is pretty good, but only when Tom Brady *takes short pause in silent reverence (but not in a blasphemus, breaking the First Commanment way ;))* is playing. He should join the Greenbay Packers...

Hockey is the only sport in which you are allowed to beat the crud out of the other players. Well actually they also let you do that in Boxing.

I have no stake in golf, but my mum is quite attached to tennis, and even sometimes gets me to watch it with her. It's not as intersting to watch as football, basketball, ect. but it certainly is a sport. At least the way the pros play it.

As for soccer, I have to be respectful because my cousin plays, and supports Blackpool big time.

But football is the best! It's amazing to watch, and fun to play when you have a crowd. (That, and I always get to be quarter-back! :) )

First, I don't play center, I play running-back. And second, shut your evil perverted mouth :mad:

There must have been some problem with the site. I wrote that, note Black Cloak. I don't know why I was logged in as BC.

[black cloak]

oh oh i know pick me pick me and yes u do play center

Yeah, I thought she was having a 'Smeagol moment' there. (talking and contridicting herself that is)

And Smog-you play EVERY position..or at least you think you do...;)

[Smog]

Well, it is because I am so perfect :D

[black cloak]

oh my smog u need help really bad

[rosymole]

I don't like playing football (thats soccer to you people who anme things strangely), but i do like reading, messing about on good old t'internet, it's quite naughty but I love television - you can learn a lot and occassionally be entertained, I also like to go out and play with my friends, but our version of play usually includes pubs and bars and lots of random conversation. I also spend agreat deal of my time looking for another job. but we don't want to talk about that.

[Dernhelm]

Hmm... I don't like "sports".
But I like reading, makeing poems:p, making wire jewelry, riding horses (when I get the chance), doing computers...
ect. ect. ect.

[lsipher]

oh, I like quiet, nice, everyday, normal stuff too. But I also REALLY like exciting, new, adventurous stuff, especially when it's with the whole family...can u say "ROAD TRIP" !!!

(Sorry, about being hyper that is, *blushes* I just had a Mountain Dew, and I'm kind of caffine sensitive.)

OH, and hockey still rules the universe...but not in a blasphemous kind of way. :)

- Lu

[Smog]

Lu, be sure to say "hi" to Ali at about three in the morning, ok :)

[rosymole]

I kinda like sports, watching more than playing since i broke my leg - i lurve rugby, cricket, formula one, and watching Pompey and Spurs get trashed on a weekly basis in the footy.

[Dragon]

well, after catching up on sleep (getting an average of 5 hours a night)...

writing, drawing, movie-making, photography, piano. I also like spending time in the woods, whether I'm doing anything or not. It's such a relaxing place to do anything: write, think, study, doze, especially if it's far away from any place.

I love to play pool, but I don't get to much 'cause I don't have a table, and I never feel like using my money to use the school's tables (especially when the money could go for me getting supper).

...and I just started animating and creating adventure games on the computer with a program called "Game Maker." We'll see how that goes...

[The Prince]

Game Maker is A awsome program there is even a forum somwhere my brother use to use it and whith the right coding (which is very complicated and he downlaoded it of another site) you can even make youre games 3d real cool stuff ;)

[waterhogboy]

Hmmmmmmmm... I don't want to rub anyone up the wrong way with this comment (although it probably will), but to say that soccer, tennis and golf aren't very good sports is a bit wrong I think. These sports are played by hundreds of countries all over the world to a high level. Theyre are popular everywhere. Sports like baseball and american football are only played (to my knowledge) in afew countries such as USA, Canada and Japan (to a HIGH level I mean). I think this sort of shows that maybe soccer and all that are better sports as they have more worldwide popularity.

PS Please correct me if I'm wrong about the baseball/american football thing!!!

[Dernhelm]

...But all the world over,
each nation's the same;
They've simply no notion of playing the game:

They argue with umpires,
they cheer when they've won;
and they practice beforehand which ruins the fun!

The English, the English, the English are best:
so up with the English and down with the rest!
~Flanders and Swann "At the Drop of Another Hat"
:p

[rosymole]

WaterHogBoy - i agree with you, but I think we should start a mini-campaign to have soccer called football- as is only right!! btw do you supoprt a team? If it's Leeds I can't complain as my cousin does too, poor chap..

[The Prince]

I knowthis is going to get heated but mabey the reason only a couple countries play football(american) is because it takes more skill you have wide recievers who sprint downfield almost as fast as olymic sprinters then you got cornerbacks who cover them(some times unless they play for the Detroit Lions) and you got quarter backs who have to make split second decisions about who to throw to etc... not to mention the huge offensive linemen.
BTW what about NFL europe

[lsipher]

I knowthis is going to get heated but mabey the reason only a couple countries play football(american) is because....

Gee, I thought it was because we Americans just really like to watch people clober each other...
...Plus, were the only nation that really grows them big n' fat enough to do it properly.

Did I mention that NFLers only have, on average, a 2 season career span, go figure.

- Lu

[Bitter Milton]

I swim like 5 hours a day usually.

Watching Rugby rocks.

Rosy: I'm a Man U fan all the way. Roy Keane is the greatest! Ireland will win the next world cup!

[The Prince]

Ummmm.... no the average career span is about ten to fifteen years with some playing over twenty
Unless your talking NFL europe which is just training grounds for a lot of players
PS thinking football(american) is just about big hits and getting tackeled is a common misconception it takes a TON of skill

[GrayCloak]

PS thinking football(american) is just about big hits and getting tackeled is a common misconception it takes a TON of skill

That always ticked me off when people say that....anyone who thinks it's just a game of tackling and pushing over needs to try and throw a ball down a football field, and have to go EXACTLY where you planned it to. Or you could always try catching a ball with a buch of bulky guys on your tail, waiting to kill you...;)

[waterhogboy]

WaterHogBoy - i agree with you, but I think we should start a mini-campaign to have soccer called football- as is only right!! btw do you supoprt a team? If it's Leeds I can't complain as my cousin does too, poor chap..

Too right. Football is football - From this point forth I will not use the word soccer again in this forum! And another thing about american football (we'll call that A football from know on) is the amount of protection they wear. Rugby players wear nothing exept possibly a skull cap and gum shield (and possibly clothes aswell!)

Yeh. I do support Leeds. Just cos they went down means nothing! I am never to be called a fair weather supporter. My sis was devestated cos shes a proper sports fan and player. Its funny tho, I dont know any of the new players names now. The old Leeds team is basically spread throughout the other teams in the premiership!!! With which team does your heart lie (and do not say manchester united. I can't belive there is someone on this forum who does support them!!!! :mad: )

PS. Notice how division 1 is noe the Championship. I think they changed it just to make Leeds feel better.

[Smog]

Ummmm.... no the average career span is about ten to fifteen years with some playing over twenty


Well, it depends on the position. Quarter backs, Running backs etc. usually play for twelve years. However, Line-Men (the guys who are 6'4" and 350lbs) play for about two competitive seasons before their knees give out.

(And "A" Football takes ALOT of skill. Most guys will spend five years training for ONE season. Talk about practice)

[waterhogboy]

But just as much training, skill and preparation are required in most other sports!

[lsipher]

That always ticked me off when people say that....anyone who thinks it's just a game of tackling and pushing over needs to try and throw a ball down a football field, and have to go EXACTLY where you planned it to. Or you could always try catching a ball with a buch of bulky guys on your tail, waiting to kill you...;)

I didn't mean to imply that it doesn't take skill...all pro-sports do. I'm sorry if I rubbed anyone the wrong way. I just couldn't resist poking a little fun, that's all.

-Lu

ps Thank you Smog, I should have been more specific as to the position.

[Smog]

YAY! I did good :)

[The Prince]

I still dont agree on the line men career span its more like 5-8 years
And people this is one of few things in this world that is not absolute so lets get back to the favorite pass times sorry I got us off track :o

[Smog]

Well, I hate to disagree with you (actually I like to disagree with you, it makes me feel important :D) but "Line Backers" CANNOT play for five years, period. After two they are forced to stop playing because the damage in their legs is to much.

And my favorite past time is getting into pointless arguements about the competative carreer span of NHL players.

[black cloak]

you guys have it all wrong it is how cute they are. Duh

[The Prince]

I still disagree I am gonna do some research but for now where do you get your info and do you follow NFL?

[lsipher]

you guys have it all wrong it is how cute they are. Duh

Boy thought! *smack*

-Lu

ps Black, hockey players are cuter than football players anyway.

ouch u hit harder than GC, really???

[Bitter Milton]

Arent hockey players covered in bruises and scars?

[black cloak]

Arent hockey players covered in bruises and scars?

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh i did not know that

[lsipher]

Arent hockey players covered in bruises and scars?

Yes, but bruises bring out the color in your eyes and scars add character. ;)

I should know.

-Lu

[Smog]

Is that why you are always hitting me???

[black cloak]

Is that why you are always hitting me???

who????????

[Smog]

Lu. Who did you think?

[black cloak]

Lu does not hit u

[Smog]

That's right, I... I fell down the stairs...

[black cloak]

brillent

[Smog]

Did you mean "brilliant?"

[lsipher]

That's right, you fell down the stairs...

...and I was talking about me having bruises and scars, obviously...

;)

-Lu

[Smog]

What bruises? What scars?

[waterhogboy]

Talking bout bruises and scars - I dont know whether anyone else has had it - but I got a trapped nerve in my neck last Friday. Its one of the most painful things ever. I couldnt look left at all and if I did I got a shooting pain all down the left side of my neck. I had to walk with me head cocked to one side all day. I looked so stupid.......

[Smog]

Ouch! That's gotta hurt!

Random question: Anybody here into running?

[waterhogboy]

Only to the fridge and back for me!

[lsipher]

What bruises? What scars?

I play goalie...do you have to ask?


Random question: Anybody here into running?

Only if somebody's dangling a cookie in front of me. Lol. jk.

I ran a marathon once...my knees won't let me do it again...yet.


Anybody else here run?

-Lu

[rosymole]

I used to jog occassionally, but now after I broke me knee that's finished totally - boo!

[waterhogboy]

Well, my sis injured her foot playing cricket and thought she wouldnt be able to play again. But she rested it for a year and now its fine!!!

[rosymole]

It's not even been 6months for me, so I'll give it a while- still not walking properly tho! more boo!

[waterhogboy]

You been to a physio????

[rosymole]

yup, but i was missing a lot of work having to go there - still doing me exercises tho!

[waterhogboy]

Good good! Thats very important!!!

I dont have to worry about any injury as I dont do anything that could possibly cause it!!!

My daily strenous exercise is up the road for the bus each morning.

[Smog]

Good good! Thats very important!!!

Well, reserch shows that those who don't exercise are more likely to hurt themselves than those who don't. It's only when you try to run marathons (or 26.2 miles) or lift hundreds of pounds that you start running into problems.

[rosymole]

My friend Paul ran the Paris marathon over the weekend -lunatic! Jut thought you'd like to know. I did go on lots of rollercoasters on saturday, but i don't think that counts as excersise?

[black cloak]

i do run a little at the gym but i cant right now cuz i hurted my knee so i have to keep it wraped and try not to use it, so now it takes me twice as long to go up and down the stairs

[lsipher]

Poor Black. I'm so sorry. When did you hurt it?

-Lu

[Dragon]

I gots a few more hobbies i'm picking up: swing dancing, web-page design, drawing, playing harmonica, and skimboarding on the big puddles around campus after a big rain.

****. That means I cant be lazy fatty anymore. :(

*sighs* Life is soooooo hard. :(

[Smog]

I have a "cattle-prod" if you like I can come to your house and smack you with it whenever you won't workout :D

[black cloak]

you are mean!!!!!

[waterhogboy]

I doubt even THAT could get ME moving - it would be better to use chocolate or something. I dont think Id run faster for anything else!!!

[Smog]

*picks up cattle prod* Oh really???

Question; What is your favorite sport?
Mine would be either Hockey or Football.

[she-elfwarrior19]

soccer, or basketball, or tennis, or badminton...... there are to many to choose from * thinks about all the sports there are frantically*

[Bitter Milton]

i do love badminton. I won a local tournament, and i beat this huge colege student.

swimming is pretty much my life. I swim about 4 hours a day during the school year, and about 6 hours a day during the summer.

[black cloak]

wow that is a lot i used to swim too
i think my fave sport is nascar

[Smog]

Is that because the cars are shinny and fast???

[black cloak]

i guess
(10)

[rosymole]

How about formula one? anyone? I'm going to the Spanish Grand Prix in a couple of weeks!

[waterhogboy]

ooo - get you! i like proper football, and also watching rugby sometimes. By far i must say the greatest sport is tiddlywinks though!! :D

[she-elfwarrior19]

hehehehehehehe thats great

[Eruname]

The only things that I do to pass the times are Write my book and draw. I never watch TV, even though there is one in my room... there's nothing worth watching anymore... anyone agree?

[rosymole]

You are right Eruname - there's a vast amount of tut on telly these days, although I'm glad to say we don't have cable in our house so the tut is limited! British TV can be ok, i think- the occassional good documentary, and of course the BBC's famed costume dramas - love em! (oh and soap operas as well - i love them - especially the US ones- Sunset beach was incredible, and I've been able to catch the odd General Hospital too!)

[she-elfwarrior19]

wouldnt you get waterlogged lol for swimming six hours? loli love swimming, when im at my uncles cottagw with my cousinz i am always the last one out of the lake i love to swim o lol

[Smog]

Well, as our culture becomes Epistemologically Self-conscience in its rejection of Christ as well as Christian morality it can get scary.

I was watching TV with my little brother when a "Victoria's Secrets" commercial came on. Those are the most offensive things I have ever seen!

Am I the only one here who has been tempted to through their shoe at the TV???

[waterhogboy]

What are they??

oh those are the beat

[The Prince]

Who! whadimiss(get it one word ya I know cool :cool: ) I have been away for a very long long time or mabey it was just a week or two i dont know.......ya know......if I..........
Oh right sorry me and smuegle(sp lotr little wierd guy likes jewlery) talking again............how did.......

[Smog]

What are they??

They are womens' lingerie commercials that are, to say the least semi-pornographic and as far as I am concerned, a sign of the growing rejection of Christ in America.

I'm not sure, do you have anything like that in the UK?

[rosymole]

Smog - any clothing catalogue will have such a section in - but ladies underwear isn't advertised on main stream UK TV- we still get the billboard posters etc though.
I suppose our alternative would be Anne Summers, or even Marks and Spencers!

[The Prince]

So these are your favorite passtimes?(sarcastistic voice even though I know these arnt)

[Smog]

What, whinning about the wickedness of America and throwing shoes at TVs?

...Yeah that's about it...

[rosymole]

I don't know about shoes, but i throw things at the telly constantly - so many irritating things/people! I like to keep a little store of non-hard edged things by me when i watch TV - just incase the rage errupts!
I don't know if it's wickedness (not wanting to start a discussion here!), but maybe just modern society?!

[Eruname]

I was watching TV with my little brother when a "Victoria's Secrets" commercial came on. Those are the most offensive things I have ever seen!

Ugh.... those are horrible... and their fashion shows? UGH.!!! I've seen more clothing used for a bikini...

[black cloak]

Ugh.... those are horrible... and their fashion shows? UGH.!!! I've seen more clothing used for a bikini...

auctally the bikinis now are small then your really skimpy underwheare

[waterhogboy]

I dunno we've got those Herbal Essences adverts which are quite close to the bone... and I spose there are quite alot that are suggestive.

Wait, actually, I just rememebered an advert that came on during desperate housewives one time which was advertising something SO pornographic I cant actually say what it is on this site. Me and my sis were just gobsmacked!

But, on a similar vein - what about music videos now - theyre getting quite risqué! (Man, Im starting sound like an OAP!!)

[rosymole]

I know that ad you mean WHB, but then if the content of programmes is as it is after the watershed then why shouldn't the ads follow suit?
I think with music videos the only feel the need to show lots of flesh if the song itself is rubbish!

[waterhogboy]

LOL! Yeh - thats true. I spose your right Rosy. If Im that bothered bout the ad, I shouldnt be watchin the program in the first place. :o

[Eruname]

*agrees with Rosy...*

And it makes me angry because I have a sixteen year old cousin who practically lives on those commercials... *sigh*

[Smog]

Well, as I'm getting older, I'm finding myself more and more inclined to seperate from the culture...

...Maybe into a "mountain fortress?"

[Thanatos]

Agree with Smog

Passtimes: comp, drawing, reading, or writing.

[mrstumnus99]
