    And if you do, does it reflect your personality?.

    Me, I train Judo & weight lifting/training.

    I've two dogs, a Pitbull and a Staffordshire Bull Terrier who I think the world off - I treat them like children and get buddles of joy from them.

    To sterio type the above I should be a complete knuckle head, but I'm the biggest softie ever.

    Would you sterio type a person based on their past times or interests?.

    To me GAA players are tough lads, athletic with great personalities who love to drink and party hard when let lose.

    Soccer players, meh..

    Rugby players, tough lads. Genuine and mostly down to earth, kinda 'mens men'.

    Joggers - loners.

    Does posting on boards count as a hobby?

    It's ok you don't have to use euphemisms, you can say it, we all think it, homersexuals.

    No not really. I think youll be drawn to certain things because of personality...

    If thats true then I am one mixed up person

    Hmm I play soccer in goals and yes I guess Im a bit eccentric. I spend way too much time nerding up and love little projects like home linux servers but I don't wear glasses, get regular sex and never owned a pocket protector. So I guess some yes others no :D

    Edit: Then again at 5 foot 6 Im not a typical goalie either so no :)

    I train cats for a hobby. It's more challenging than training dogs and requires a different type of beating stick.

    Drinking tea in good company is my main hobby.
    I guess that means I like talking rubbish. Alot.

    You know any of my jogger friends are loners, and my GAA crushes big boozers.

    Basically it prevents pens leaking into your pocket.

    Are you an Alcoholic bouncer in real life then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    One of Pigheads favourite hobbies is killing puppies. Being one of the better known psychopaths around the area, this hobby probably does reflect Pighead's personality

    Maybe your sig should be "Don't see a good night banned".

    What does having a male Blenheim King Charles Cavalier Cocker Spaniel say about me?

    That the DSPCA needs more inspectors ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,533 ✭✭✭SV


    I have a west highland terrier and a Staffordshire bull terrier(Lovely dogs despite their horrible reputation :rolleyes: )

    Also train in weightlifting and boxing(though nowhere near as much as the weightlifting.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 885 ✭✭✭Roadend


    I play soccer and there's several GAA players playing with us, they are not as big and tough as you seem to think


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭PurpleBerry

    Cool, I've made an emeny. And I didn't even have to do anything!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    I train at Olympic target rifle, would like to get involved in boxing, have a golden retriever/cocker cross (by the look of her, don't know her parentage) and write various bits of poetry and music, also like hunting, played rugby for years and would like to do it again, so... ?

    I used to have hobbies, I played GAA and footie for a while when I was younger, but I just stopped going.

    I also had a dog, used to walk her and play with her a lot. And my cat is the most anti-social creature on the planet.

    I want a new hobby, but requires effort :p

    He'll do it! Don't think he won't do it!

    I like computers. I play games, and like nerdy projects. I also get pissed frequently and don't wash my hair.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,608 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    write various bits of poetry


    I'd love the gift of being able to write poetry, seriously I envy you.

    Admit it, you dress it up in dog clothes sometimes.

    I'll put you on my enemy list so, but you've a long way to go to make it to my nemesis list.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,542 ✭✭✭Captain Darling


    I played alot of junior hurling and soccer. Mainly confined to the gym these days because of various damaged ligaments and time constraints with work/college.


    I'd give me left ball to be able to play a match every Saturday again.:(

    True, sometimes I put a little belt on him. Around his neck.
