    Cool;)

    My hobbies are kung fu, horseriding, weightlifting, aerobics, reading medieval novels, visiting medieval sites and wearing medieval dresses. I think they're cool.

    Quasar = laser tag - i.e. people shooting each other with low-powered lasers. You wear gear that will detect when you are hit etc and it keeps track of everyone's score. Surely you've heard about this? It was all the rage in the 90s :pac:

    Oh I have actually played that. It was rubbish enough though. Surely that's just for kids with airsoft or paint balling being the adult equivalent.

    You'd like bunratty castle and folk village. You can even go to a medieval banquet. I loved that place when I was there years ago and have always wanted to go back.

    Well in order of coolness, I shoot things, lift weights (crap at this though), play comp games and read fantasy fiction

    Reading of any description is not cool.
    Playing computer games is geeky unless your a child. The wii I suppose is probably an exception.

    Regarding weightlifting...yeah that is cool but not the most vital element of it..eating! including taking vitamins, fruit and veg, green tea and all that. Having to go to bed early etc.

    Usually eating healthily and your fruit and veg etc. is reserved for the puffs along with their eco responsibity and underpowered cars.

    Never said they were cool but I put them in order of popular coolness perception

    Cool: snowboaring, mountain biking, playing lots of guitar
    Not so cool: computer game addiction


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,740 ✭✭✭Naos


    My favourite hobby is Guitar, so it would be cool, but considering I suck for the amount of time I've played, it should be deemed as uncool.

    Hold on, reading is cool. Especially the knowledge that comes from reading; larger vocabulary, spelling, appreciation of a good yarn etc.
