What do you spend the most spare time doing outside of gaming/forums?

Getting back in the roll of classes and looking for work. I do work for a podcast and coaching for league, but both of those are gaming related. Not much else really.

I don't really do much outside of smogon and a few other forums I visit every now and then. Most notably I draw and sleep.
 
Not much of anything. I would draw if I had actual art skills, and I can write really imaginative and detailed stuff and would if I wasn't so lazy.

I mostly watch anime, study, cook food, read books, draw and go to sports practice or play sports with my friends, also biking and walking my dog. I have a lot of daily activites...
 
At the moment because of my busy schedule, I spend my time reading books (Currently reading A Moveable Feast), Painting/Drawing, and Anime. Occasionally my friends will invite me for some indoor soccer. Besides that, that's pretty much all I do while I juggle work and school!

No offence, but a lot of people here seem to have really boring and unfulfilling lives.
If our lives are so "boring and unfulfilling" then why don't you tell us about your life, which you have implied isn't boring and unfulfilling, instead of posting a snide and arrogant one-liner which adds literally nothing to the thread at all

I said "no offence". Geez.

I am a philosophy student at Cambridge, I am vice-president of my college's debating society (I've got my eye on the top-spot) and I am a time-travelling dominatrix from the future.

As for hobbies, I like finding people called Martin and making them really, really mad.
 
Since this is my first semester as a full time student, I really don't either have the time to do much or just have little to no motivation. When I'm not studying or relaxing, I'll try and watch some anime or play some vidya with friends. If I wanna get out a bit I'll go to the batting cages for a bit or go walk at the park near my house.
 
I play chess a lot, I love how it's almost entirely skill based. I also love to play tennis, bike and swim recreationally. Mountain biking is awesome and is something I look forward to doing every summer. Outside of that I enjoy military history, so I play a lot of 20th Century MMOs and RTS style games like Naval Action, World of Tanks and World of Warships. Of course I enjoy Pokemon and talking to people on PS!, discord and skype. I try to see my friends but my other hobbies plus work and school obligations (and their school obligations) makes actually getting together somewhat of a rarity, which is unfortunate but there are only so many hours in the day.

Just saying... you can actually earn a living off Pokemon VGC.
Founder of Amalgame, the top Japanese VGC website, earns a living solely off adverts on his website.
Then there are also Youtubers like Verlisify (lol) (Thing is, he is still earning money and it feels like he's making money for being a jerk or something, which in a way is kinda cool.)

Meanwhile, if you buy and resell Pokemon cards properly, you should be able to gain some pocket money, as you should always result in a net gain.
Though profit speaking, you should earn more by Yu-Gi-Oh cards.

I'm now into investing in Japanese Pokemon cards, because I'm more familiar with Pokemon cards than YGO cards.
Way more profitable and efficient than doing crafts, lol.

I'm a student teacher at my college where I teach undergrad writing and English courses. I really enjoy editing papers and the such and it's been a pretty big relief that I'm decent at teaching and love it, as that's what I want to do for my life.

Aside from that I'm generally reading, currently I'm reading Ghostwritten by David Mitchell and am heavily enjoying it.

Edit:
I also bartend for money

LOL fuck me, this is pure gold. I got advise for you, start to socialise with other normal human beings more often..... and you say other people have boring lives? What exactly do you do besides post on that thread of yours and anger other people (I guess besides stating every 5 seconds that you go to Cambridge)?

On topic, I enjoy going to the gym, playing basketball, boxing, watching prison break (a decade late) and crashing into gates.

Don't let Matthew lie to you - he sleeps with women for a living. ;/

I currently work for a hospital. I actually enjoy it since I do IT from a service desk perspective and it's pretty laid back on thirds. Pay is solid and everything.

Outside of that I chill with my friends every now and then - whether laughing it up on Discord or just going to chill at restaurants or bars. Been trying to crawl back in the dating scene and it's been okay so far.

Still need to finish my schooling. Only having an Associates is not enough for me and I want to strive higher. I just wish I had that extra kick in me sometimes. Hopefully this job will help.
 
Drawing cute little monsters that resemble Pokémon (they're not). Ideas and motivation rarely work together for me, though. I also play on my Nintendo 3DS when I'm not doing that, whether it's Pokémon or some other exclusive franchise.
