That's funny I'm the only one who thinks building PC's is more fun than using them.

Actually, I do too, but I'd still rate boardgames and reading over that.

Just wondering what the ATOTers do for fun. At *home*. I assume we all get out and hike, bike, kayak, climb rocks, and ski during the day, right? Of course. SO...what do you do when NOT doing that?

EDIT: If you do more than one, just pick the one you do the most or enjoy the most. For me, boardgames, all the way. Although PC gaming is a close second. And reading books is great. Hmmm...this poll would REALLY be interesting if AT polls allowed multiple selections you could prioritize....

When the weather is nice I like to work on my car.Or take it to a car show/cruise.

Well, you aren't working ALL day, now are you? Nor at all on the weekends....hence, the assumption made.

the internets. but you didn't even put that as an option (neffing at ATOT is not quite it.) 🙂

Updated that option. Also, added choices for our redneck friends and fundamentalist Quakers!

definitely playing Dungeons and Dragons (or any other tabletop roleplaying game).

but since I haven't found any groups to play with since college, I'd have to go with reading.

Don't give up on tabletop gaming just yet! You'd be surprised what you can find in your area if you tried.

interesting link 🙂 I was involved in a D&D game that was played over IRC for awhile, but that kinda fell apart after a couple months.
 
Sitting on the back porch, drinking PBRs, and shooting possums off the fence

chage that to, "drinking bud, and shooting critters that come in my backyard", i voted for it anyways. and PC games.
 
I like to camp, hike, and fish, as well as the usual video games and books. I'd love to learn how to play the guitar at some point, too.
