I want just ONE normie hobby!!!! - Why can’t I be just a normal man

[SNU]

Make little clay figurines of people that you meet. Play with your clay figurines. You must do different voices for each one. Do not do porno roleplays with your figurines.

Find cool rocks and take them home. Smash them together to make cool shapes out of cool rocks. Sometimes when you smash rocks there is cool stuff inside.

Bang sticks together to make cool noise. Make noise while banging sticks. Make cool sounds

If you try to make money off your hobby its not a hobby anymore

You do it for fun, not for a profit

you sound like a jew and/or a retard. Or a woman, but thats really the same.

I'm sure all the nerds who like card or tabletop games aren't real happy about how sucking girl dick and worshipping black people is considered a requirement for entry now.

iirc it more just became the corporate side of things are dying at exponential rates and niches just survive using the old shit. so less "ah fuck everything is gay and we live under the gaytatorship" and more "ah fuck guess mtg, dnd, etc will basically never print new sets worth a damned, so this is the entire pool of material guys" same feeling for say fans of the matrix. or anything else really thats been milked.

Wow hunting feels like I took off time from work to wait in place for a defenseless creature to be defenseless before I kill it.

you could hunt more dangerous creatures or more elusive creatures. for instance some game birds you have to trek through difficult marshes and make a fast shot on an erratically flying small bird. fishing is nice because it can be really passive and you can use less harmful hooks if you want.

It’s really fucking annoying because ALL of these have aspects of very important life skills. Car repair, cooking. Self defense, Survival. And I can’t force myself to have interest AT ALL ugh. FUCKING WHY. It’s almost insult to injury that I can masquerade as not only normal but a person a lot of people look up to in terms of charisma. but it’s all fake. I’m an internet weirdo who mastered social mimicry

alot of people have hobbies that arent as basic or omnipresent or as a universally applicable to daily life. if you have no interest in those things but still want to know how to do them then theyre just more chores that you may or may not find necessary or worth it same as anything else for most people . for personal enjoyment frankly i found that its just impossible to find interacting with most people. for the most part theyre fairly dull and dont really have any sort of animating drive or personal philosophy or desire to alter the world around them so much as they are interesting in blending in for survival in all aspects of their life for an easier time never venturing out or having their own opinions that dont derive from their self interests or the self interests of the groups they inhabit.

the internet is fun because the removal of most consequences meant people could actually start to develop personas and fun aspects or ideas to examine

 

[invisibult plus+]

Honestly I skimmed your OP, and everything you spoke about were things you felt obligated to do. What do you actually like doing? What were you drawn towards as a kid?

 

[DumbDosh]

playing instruments is fun, or kayaking while listening to a podcast

 

[Troon_Patrol]

I like guns/cars/home repair.

I consider these normal productive hobbies.

Come to the nerdy side of hobbies, we can build models of tiny plastic mechs while discussing there fictional military development history.

You can also build a small replica of a cold war bomber and give retards aneurysm by putting wrong weapons on it

 

[IDanceonTrannyGraves]

There are plenty of books from the last 100+ years you can read that arent woke or retarded.

 

[Syntaxion]

Investing? Voluntering (tips I guess)? Writing, drawing, playing an instrument or another form of producing something?
Some hobbies do make money, but they're rare. And the more money you want out of it, the more of a job it becomes.

 

[2mm and 99 others]

Try to think of picking new skills as a normie hobby on its own.
Normie people mostly lived without hobbies for millenia, apart from the artsy types. If you do DIY car repairs and home improvement, well, you don't have to like it (I do both and I hate it) but there are people who don't even try.

 

[byron]

It's okay to not like stuff. And, as some other people have pointed out, you may initially "not get" the draw of a particular activity. For example:

I go to the gun range
Bang bang bang
Wow that sounded like $15 dollars flying through my fingers.

In my opinion, the attraction of marksmanship as a hobby is in the pursuit of precise control of one's body. I'm aware that other people enjoy guns purely for the "bang bang bang" and I agree with you, that's expensive. But other people try for accuracy and believe me, it's a subtle art.

So if you went to the gun range just to "bang bang bang" then perhaps consider giving it another try with a different mindset.

Also, pistol marksmanship is a very different pursuit from rifle marksmanship. If you went to a pistol range and didn't "get it" - that's totally cool, but maybe you would enjoy a rifle. And actually, archery is one of the most fun "control of one's body" activities for me - and I love the "swoop ....thunk" of an arrow hitting a target.

Come to think of it, a lot of male hobbies revolve around control and consistency. I'm not personally into golf, but I understand that the draw of golf isn't "putting little balls into little holes" - it's precision, control, consistency.

 

[Idiotron]

always just seen cars as a thing to get from point A to point B.

So do most people.
Car enthusiasts are a small minority.

the gun range

Shooting guns is also something most people don't do.

I try grilling. Wow grilling these burgers feels a like like inhaling smoke while standing still for 30 minutes while someone else leans over my shoulder and tells me how he could do it better

For grilling, you ideally should have a family.
It makes sense for a family to do it.

Wow hunting feels like I took off time from work to wait in place for a defenseless creature to be defenseless before I kill it.

Shooting living things is also not something most people have an interest it.

WOW sports is just a form of monkey in the middle with a different shaped ball.

OK... that's bullshit.
I'm a competitive athlete and I fucking hate ball sports, they're the worst.
Sports are so much more than that, you can definitely find something you like.

I can’t tell people 8 years of gamer gate history to someone in a reasonable amount of time to explain why a fat barred out rage pig squealing in Mexico is actually the funniest thing ever damn it!

Do you only have knowledge of the culture war and lolcows or do you know the games themselves as well?
Because newsflash, gaming is THE normie hobby.

Normie hobby’s make money!

And look at how many people with knowledge of vidya have lucrative careers on social media.

 

[Runescape Sperg]

Gambling is a based and safe hobby because you're guaranteed to make money. 100% proven to hit the money jackpot at some point

 

[Mr. 305]

What are you looking to get out of a hobby? If it’s money I think you are looking in the wrong place almost all hobbies are designed to be money pits. Unless you are actively making and selling items, trading stocks, or winning prize money from competitions you won’t make any money from hobbies.

 

[The Blue Morpho]

Get into shortwave radio or trains or tornado sirens

You seem autistic enough for any of those interests

 

[Flatline]

Why can’t I have just ONE normie hobby.

Fantasy Football. Many normie guys play this and bond over it. It's not too late to get in on your office's league.

 

[Osama Bin Laden]

More of just venting tbh. Normies are midwits and their fascinations are simpler. Because of this I feel there are more practical skills are tangential to them.

you sound like a massive unhappy faggot with this kind of mindset. “lol these fuckin normies just are too stupid to understand my big dick 500 IQ brain”

there are hobbies for a reason… you don’t usually do them because you want to earn money, you do them because you like it.

i could do sales as a job and do music as a hobby, doesn’t mean that i’m guaranteed money from it. you need to find something you like and stick with it. if you can’t find something you like, maybe take some deep self reflection

 

[Mad At The Intranet]

I can’t tell people 8 years of gamer gate history to someone in a reasonable amount of time to explain why a fat barred out rage pig squealing in Mexico is actually the funniest thing ever damn it!

You could easily make money rambling about gamer gate on YouTube and ditch this whole normie hobby thing entirely. I can guarantee you that you'll find an audience willing to be your paypigs as long as you don't get filtered by the site's bot mods.

You are an empty shell. It's not a big deal. You will never find passion. Just keep faking it and stop expecting a spark.
