    I don't understand playing video games for hours. I've known people whose only hobby is gaming....I just don't get it.

    or watching tv/ movies

    I need to feel like I am accomplishing something with my hobbies.

    Same. I do like watching movies/TV but when people binge watch a different series all weekend, every weekend, or watch like 14 old VHS movies in a single weekend (friends of ours actually did this last weekend while at a rented cabin) I'm confused. It's not a judgy thing just very weird to me because I can't imagine. I like to watch a movie then do something else.

    The eating challenges. My husband loves watching these competitions. It's just not my thing.

    OMG, this. The hot dog eating contest on the Fourth of July? Makes me gag/dry heave just watching it.

    Agree so much! I feel like I'm wasting time and it's really not meaningful or very entertaining. I would love for someone to explain to me why they spend their time like this and what value it adds. I'm sure it helps some people relax but it makes me antsy because I'm not doing anything!

    I don't get the people who sit in lawn chairs just inside their garage and stare out at the street all day. They don't have a TV or radio on, or are reading, or anything like that. Just sitting. I don't understand what they could possibly get out of that.

    Watching or engaging in violent sports. UFC and boxing are a person's own choice but training animals to fight is beyond my comprehension.

    I have seen guys who do that. I always just assume their wife has something to do with it.
