[pretzeltime]

PretZel I'll teach you French on here. And u can drink all u want. Best of both worlds. And A+ all around...should count as a credited class for lsac gpa.

J'ai Parle la langue d'amour depuis j'ai 12 ans.

Also I play basketball, lift weights and enjoy reading books by john Grisham.

Haha that's a tight proposition. I definitely won't complain about a bit of help with French wherever I can get it.

I was just trying to be whimsical when I signed up for this rando class.

Mostly because I have essentially no hobbies. Ha

[Mikey]

100 ayyyy

[pretzeltime]

hobbies include eating a lot, cooking, drinking, hiding in my room, trying to find excuses not to go out

I played ultimate in college and thought it'd be a "cool" "active" "adult" thing to join a summer league here.

I joined one, too bad it was for a city of the same name in fucking Ontario. And they had a park with the same name as one here. Was very confused when I showed up to the park and my team was nowhere to be found

Then I went and ate a lot of empanadas instead

These are my hobbies

What law do y'all want to do?

I want to be a JAG, preferably for the Coast Guard but likely for the Army.
If that doesn't work out I'll look into Cyber Law/Privacy. I'm an InfoSec professional now with a stacked list of certs, might try to parlay that into a cyber law career down the road if I can't get back into the military.

I spoke with a Judge who was a former JAG. I don't remember much to be honest, but I do remember it being an interesting path to go.

Ahhhhh la vache! Une autre personne qui aime parler en français. Bien sûr, vous avez 12 ans, donc je suis certain que vos compétences sont beaucoup mieux que le mien.

Oh lil sis! We gotta get you out there! This just won't do. Have you considered looking at meetup.com and seeing what different groups are up to? In every city there are always tons of folks getting together to pursue their eclectic interests together (board gaming, video games, dinner clubs, toastmasters, community volunteering groups, etc). Don't be a shut-in at 25!

Check you out!!! You're cool. I especially like the pastel drawing and historical non-fiction.

And coffee of course. But I consider that more of a necessity than a hobby. Ha

Haha thank you, I appreciate the concern.

I am sorrrrrrrrrrrt of kidding and making myself seem more like a miserly recluse than I actually am. Truth be told I have a good amount of friends but I am a lazy POS.

The frisbee-in-Canada thing was a set back for sure, lololol, as ultimate is typically a great way to meet people.

Ironically I am considering starting to volunteer for the Samaritans suicide hotline. Not exactly a cheery place to meet new people. But a great organization.

The problem with meetup.com is I don't really have a fun hobby to bond with others over! But that's a good idea, I will check it out. I can possibly *pretend* to be interested in something in order to meet fun humans.

And of course, just imagine all of the weirdos who will be in my adult education center introductory French class. I am bound to become BFFs with several eccentric retirees.

These are the best. Most likely to bake you cookies and generally be nosy...but with food and hugs!

Who is surprised by meerkat's impressive portfolio of hobbies and talents?????

I mean, would be better if you could add Portuguese to that list but

Like I want a woman who wears a patchwork vest covered in her entire button collection that she's been working on for decades that clashes perfectly with her flowing floor length muslin skirt and she is planning to move to Provence next year and spend the rest of her retirement subsisting on her garden and chickens and goat and making jam

Or something along those lines, IDK...........

See you're not so boring after all!

I also keep up with a lot of online feminist critical theory, insofar as I'm aware of like their arguments and stances on contemporary issues. But I tend to emphasize the "critical" more than most.
