A man just spent 17.5k on a videogame. I would too, if it were me.

Is it bad that I thought "Cause I've got a golden ticket!" when I saw this thread?

It's not even Zelda, Metroid, Mario, Megaman 2, Faxanadu, or Ninja Gaiden. What's the big deal?

I mean, yeah, it looks like it was taken care of, but still. $25,000 asking price?

Obsessive, compulsive, obsessive, compulsive, obsessive, compulsive...

The great thing about hobbies is that they don't have to make sense to anyone but you.

Still, for 17 large, that thing should have come with one of the programmers as a bonus gift.

Tell me about it. I spend an inordinate amount of time to this day looking for bottles that resemble the ones from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Why? I don't really know! I got some nice ones from IKEA just today though. They're... really nice, I suppose.

EDIT: Rename this thread "Post your strangest hobbies!"

Have you found them? Do they have the cow label?

If the answer is yes, you will have to fight to keep them.

You there; you, with the link.
I feel finicky and will bash the tartlet responsible for that picture right now. The artist made the following simple mistakes in uploading his image: Using a whopping FOUR watermarks and saving it as a badly-compressed JPG. And his avatar is lame.

ANYWAY just to spite him I'm going to make an impressionistic Chateau Romani label and fill the bottle with acetic acid or ethanol or something.

Do what you like, it won't save your bottles. Nothing can.

I make Sonic and Mario fan characters out of Duplo bricks.

The only strange hobby I have is collecting unfinished self-made ohrrpgce games.

Oh, and inventing new words. Like:

Geniosity. (Jeen-E-o-sit-ee) Verb. The act of being genius.
