Bump - Things I am not as interested in as I used to be I think this thread is awesome and I'd love to see more responses. →[More:] I think it kind of slipped under the radar. Taz, could it possibly be sidebarred?

Well, I don't have time to do stamps, but:

*Hanson
*Collecting purses
*Saving the environment (I know, that sounds awful; but in 4th grade, I was SO DEDICATED!)

1. Playing an instrument & writing music
2. Reading fiction (I prefer textbooks now)
3. Chess

These have an underlying current running throughout them, the marking of time. Since the last heart attack, I have been quite thorough in eliminating activities that remind me of passing time as well as time-wasting activities. Thus my reduced interest also in commenting on Plastic and Metafilter.

MeCha however is a strange little website that presents me with new perspectives on the routines of life, and so I do not consider my time here wasted. Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. ;-P

No time for stamps so I'll add mine here:

1. Skateboards
2. My hair

They're all interests and concerns from my teens.

reading magazines
The Lion King

(everything else I can think of I'm still interested in, but just don't have the time for)

1. MMORPG's. Think I've got burnout after ~10 years of them.
2. Horror movies that focus too much on pointless suffering/cruelty and that have no "art" to them, or deeper message. I've read too much.
3. People who can't offer me any sort of intelligent conversation. I've too little time to waste, these days.
4. That goddamned shaky camera effect. It's why I can't watch Battlestar Galactica, among others.
