I probably should invest in discovering some outdoor hobbies…possibly with people (meh).
xkcd has dozens of suggestions for new hobbies involving people, but most of them seem to require a lot of random encounters.Collecting double-takes
@werehatrack lol they also tend to be designed to not so much make friends but more to enjoy others confusion.
It never occurred to look for them by category cause I’ve read them all so many times. In random, in order, and specifics. But googled. And of course there is. https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/Category:My_Hobby
That reminds me, I need to open up my 1000 piece Lego Minifigure puzzles.
Impressive! I like puzzles where you have pattern and color to match.

Get some crayons, color a pattern, and swap it with someone? Outside?
Naw, just buy another one. Jigsaw puzzles are great.
@algae1221 - @sammydog01 might be able to answer #3. Even if it’s all sky, I guess marriage is great.
@njfan @sammydog01 I know what it’s like to be married, but I don’t do jigsaw puzzles. Could you tell me what that’s like?
@algae1221 @sammydog01
MARVELEOUS!!!
These are amazing! High quality, easter eggs, and a surprise ending - really. There’s an envelope with extra pieces to be used after you complete them.

drinking outside is cheap and you meet a lot of other people. at least i think you do. my mind is hazy for some reason.
