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....

I pretty much force myself to go to the gym, I would much rather play video games/ play guitar/ watch movies/ etc...... I do like a good game of b-ball though.

Well obviously I do more then just one of these, so I picked the one I do the most, play PC games or to be more precise, play CS:Source.

Eh, living in central Oregon is great. Who needs a gym? All the rock climbing, biking and kayaking one could possibly want!

Still, got the whole night to fill up with stuff.

That's the idea - I'm sure (at least, I HOPE) everyone does more than one of those.

Question is - which do you do the most, or enjoy the most.

You got it lucky, you can't even ride a freakin bike around here unless you feel like getting run over.

Depends on the season. Definitely into outdoor activities like you mentioned. But in the evenings and spare time permitting I spend a ton of time and $$$ on R/C helis.

I could probably go swim in the vermillion river or a local bayou if I felt like dying ;)

Well the title is slightly different than the POLL. The topic is "FAVORITE" passtime. The Poll says "what do you do"...imply what do you normally do even though it may not be your favorite thing.


My favorite: Drinking alcohol
I normally do: Watch TV

I try not to spend too much time at home (not too much to do there). I'll either read, play a game on my PC, or possibly watch some TV.

Reading another thread on the board got me thinking....am I being narrow-minded by excluding our redneck friends?

Considering an option for them....ummm....hmmmm....how about 'Drink PBR and shoot possums off the back fence'?

ATOT seems to be my flavour of the season for now. Spring hits and I'm on the links 3-4 times a week.

other than that - fix PCs, game, watch TV with the SO, etc.
