Things I *don't* do as a hobby

[compilerbitch]

Inspired by Scott Adams' wonderful oneliner from his current Dilbert blog:

Atheism is religion the same way that NOT collecting stamps is a hobby

I just started wondering if you lot had antihobbies. An antihobby isn't the absence of a hobby -- I mean, there are loads of things I don't do, like polevaulting for example, but I can't say that I make a hobby of not polevaulting.

<flamebait>Vegetarianism, for some people, appears indistinguishable to others as making a hobby of not eating meat.</flamebait>

Discuss.

I wonder if an anti-hobby might be something that all/most/many of your friends or family do and you don't: if you're the only person in your social circle who doesn't play bridge, or go rock-climbing, or collect obscure jazz recordings, it becomes noteworthy.

I think that would fit, but you'd probably have to revel in your nondoing of the thing, at least a bit, in order to qualify. So you'd have to say something like, 'no, I'm not going to eat food like a complete looser like you lot, I'm going to live on fresh air and the cosmic forces underlying the universe. Nyaaah!' in order to qualify.

(Yes, silly mood today, sorry)
