What is a hobby you enjoy, but seems too quirky or obscure to bring up in most conversations? - eviltoast

Mine would be creating pen and paper ciphers for my made up secret communication needs.

      I used to hate this about myself until I briefly took up photography.

      “I have to take 100 pictures to find 1 i like!” I lamented. “Just like my hobbies!”

      Then it clicked. Im not abandoning all my hobbies. Im auditioning them for the role.

        It’s just part of my personality by now and I don’t feel bad about it any more. I just keep adding skills to my repertoire and thus have a broad spectrum of things I can talk about and relate with other people.

      Me too! Let’s start a club!

      Don’t worry you don’t have to show up to the meetings. I won’t.
