Default What is your 'thing'

By 'thing' i mean a interest or hobby etc that you have that you are quite passionate about. If someone was to describe you to someone else they may say 'you know John, the guy who's into/does........'

Hard to explain so i'll give a few examples football, art/drawing, photography. I can name 'things' for a few people on here by their posts they have made in the past. Something they are maybe more knowledgeable/talented at than the general public also.

Films
TV
Comics/Manga
Zombies/horror genre

I've been called a 'walking tv guide' loads of times
I like extending my knowledge in films and searching for quite unknown ones. I've wrote a list of around 400 films I've never seen before but should ranging from 1903 to present day that I'm going through now and highlighting them off.

Default Re: What is your 'thing'

One of my biggest interests is transport. I'm the sort of person who goes on a train or bus ride, just for the sake of it. Its the sort of hobby which people don't understand, and I very rarely tell anyone about it as I find it really embarrasing. I will probably regret posting this lol.

Also;
Photography
Tv/film/music
Geography.

Default Re: What is your 'thing'

well i suppose IT..related stuff

Hardware over Software..im usually the called to guy out of people i know to fix anything remotely electronic (even when its something like a phone or a sky box ), set up someones home network or "fix the internet"

Games..i guess, not just playing them but i have a degree in Games Design..so i can use game editors/create some models and stuff

some Designy stuff, even though i suck..better than say..my sewing skills

kinda technology side of things it would seem, i dont really know anything else, i quite like fixing things though..getting into the electronics side of things a bit..

Default Re: What is your 'thing'

i don't have a "thing", if anything comes close it's cooking i guess, but i'm not particularly chef-like, more just good at cooking family-type foods. like i coud do a killer jerk chicken and rice and peas for you but don't ask me to make flambe or something. if people were to describe me the only thing that stands out is my foreign-ness.

Music and dancing are my things at the moment.

They're far from being my only interests, but they're the biggest ones at the moment.
