Well, I can't say that my interests are too unusual. But I have a kind of weird taste for cars, basically, I don't need at all those cool and awesome sports cars like Porsche (if it's not 924) or Ferrari (except Testarossa, and only because of Miami Vice), but some Soviet-block old school stuff like Lada 2101-2107 or East Germany Wartburg or Trabant can make me hyped, or all those blocky US sedans, era mostly considered as a downfall of US cars, but anyway they're all my favorites, so sad that it's almost impossible to get any of those hare where I live.

I'm really into oolongs in general -- there's such a variety, and I love the way the leaves unfurl. I guess if I had to pick a single tea, my current favorite is a wild unsmoked lapsang. The flavor kind of reminds me of apricot jam.

Without being sarcastic, but you win this exchange. Well done, and cool comic by the way. Keep up the good work. :slight_smile:

Well, if we assume that it is more or less unfeasible to colonize other stars and that the main road to discovering somebody is through radio emissions, it's not that much of a paradox. We're already phasing out radio in favor of focused beams and potentially - lasers.

1000x if-else in source code is not artificial intelligence :grin:

You will be surprised how many if statements are contained in an AI source code. You need a lot of them already for simple neural networks...The whole human decision hierarchy is based on if-then-else statements :wink:

I love rocks and gem stones too. :nerd:

My comic will feature some, though I might need to rename them to fit in with the world a bit. :sweat_smile: I've been researching their different properties (and spiritual properties - a bit far out, but inspirational for my story). :+1:

The whole human nervous structure is nothing but "if's", since a neuron is a kind of a logic switch.

I got plenty of those. I design custom magic: the gathering cards, I collect and sell natural sea glass, I blacksmith, I'm into academic conlanging (constructing hypothetical languages), I collect artisan soaps, and I know wayyy too much about the history of youtube poop

I've collected a massive amount of Yu-Gi-Oh cards sense I was about ten or so years old, I'm pretty good at the game. I also have a big collection of dragon incense burners, swords/knives and skulls.

Ooh, I collect bunny stuffed animals. I'm not younger than 18 so even if collecting stuffed animals isn't an unusual interest usually, a lot of people think if you're an adult and collect stuffed animals then you're weird xD So I guess that's my unusual interest.

Geology, poi spinning, and I really like watching pole dancing competitions, and break dancing. There is just something about the poses that is just so cool as an art form.

Aside from being a furry, which isn’t that unusual amongst artists. I’m really into the occult and Lovecraftian horror. I have a lot of books about chaos magic on my shelves at home.

Bump this old thread.

Always have a keen on PC tech & PC DIY. I actually dislike large PC towers, and love those cute small form factor PC builds. I love those small casings & low profile graphic cards. So adorable :blush:.

Used to have an interest in exploring the land where I lived, map-making, and looking for edible plants to gather and eat purely for the fun of it. Also kept a journal detailing every new plant and animal species I came across, but then I moved closer to the city and that sadly killed the budding hobby. :'I

Nowadays, the only unusual interest I can think of at the top of my head is maybe my music tastes. Not that what I listen to is especially crazy or niche, but that I listen to such a wide range of stuff and genres. I'll listen to jazz, hiphop, pop, country, electronic, lofi, opera, rock, metal, psychedelic trance, citypop, and reggae in one sitting, in a bunch of different languages from different decades.

I like to be surprised by what my randomized playlists throw at me next, and sometimes make a game of it by challenging myself to see how long I can listen to music without having any one language (or other category) come up more than once in the list. I strongly associate songs with memories and feelings and like to imagine a different dreamscape or story scenario for each song.

Sometimes music is a background thing, but can often be a pastime in-and-of itself for me.

Might not be such an unusual thing to the creators I interact with over the internet, but among my irl family and acquaintances it's something I've resolved to keep to myself after being called weird one too many times. :sweat_smile:
