Physical activity, video games. I wakeboard every week during the summer. Every day I play video games online. There's something about being behind the mask of a game character that allows me to feel a sense of freedom. However, I do not socialize on the game outside from the circle of friends I play with.

With my wakeboarding, I feel proud and often dream about it and the rush it gives me inside. I am a different "me" when I'm on my board.

Yes, it's a little different than water skiing, but similar in that you're pulled behind a boat. A wakeboard is like a snowboard, and you stand asymetrically since both feet are strapped to the board. I used to waterski too, but switched to wakeboarding because it's a little easier on the body. It's more fun because you can do tricks and jump the wake etc.

Cool. I'm not going to try it though.

I used to play chess for fun. I gave it up because I couldn't deal with any additional frustration in life. I do opera and classical music concerts now. Hookers too. All that is going to be too expensive if I have to take a job working at Burger King.

Is robbing banks fun? I've got to see Public Enemies and pick up some pointers.

Robbing banks isn't very fun at all. It forces you into a confrontational situation and the stress level is ridiculous. I can't recommend it.

I wouldn't recommend it.

But;
I think robbing a bank would be a lot of fun though.
If you could go through with the whole pointing a gun in someones face and telling them you'll kill them unless they give you "all of the Monies?"
I think it would be a great rush.

Being bum raped by a huge black man called tiny in prison wouldn't be any fun though (at least not the first time) .

I hate this question as my only answers are listening to music, surfing the net etc. I don't have the confidence to do anything that involves team of people or people watching me. I rather do solitary things.

It could be a good form of desensitization therapy, couldn't it?

If he got his nickname because of a tiny dong then maybe it wouldn't be that bad. I had my doc check my prostate once. It felt kind of strange but it didn't hurt.

bright -I'm wondering where that came from. Did your school teachers tell you that you were going to end up being someones' wife in prison? Mine did. All I did was miss some study halls because I was playing chess in the computer room. And I threw some snowballs.

No. His nick name is ironic. He's hung like a donkey that was dipped in nuclear waste as a baby and mutated an inexplicable large penis. He has trousers made with 3 legs, and even then he has to tie it in a complicated series of knots to stop it dragging on the floor.
:D :D :shock:

No but yours did. You mentioned it in another thread so I thought I'd reference it. But mostly just because it's a stereo typical prison joke.
Thats really harsh BTW, I can't believe your teacher would say that. Even if they were only joking it's still totally unacceptable.
Don't worry about it. I expect I would if I ever went to prison. But I don't plan to, so there's no problem.
