The joys of being single

there are joys to being single? (apart from druken 1 night stands with women one might not want to remeber)

[David Panzer]

Sure.

1) There's only person you have to buy food for.
2) There isn't anyone bitching about leaving the seat up
3) The only morning breath you have to deal with is your own
4) You don't have to see chick flicks

There's a few others but it's almost midnight and my Xbox is calling for me

As far as joys go... those are pretty damn pathetic

Like a number of people on here, I do spend a good amount of time with video games, although I may be unique in that I'm big on collecting consoles of the past and present. Friends like to nickname it the museum

Playing various musical instruments (bass, guitar, drums, piano) is a big one as well, although varying periods of life determine how much time I spend on it or what instrument is concentrated on

I, too, have liked Magic The Gathering at one point in my life (back from Revised to Mirage). I'm still juiced knowing that the very first Magic deck that I ever bought had a Shivan Dragon in it. I had a dude at school back in the day trying to get me to trade him my Shivan Dragon for like fifteen cards he had. I'm like, "Uh, no!" I also early on got a Millstone and a Serra Angel, both of which I like. But haven't collected or played for a LONG time now.

Exactly the same here. My first starter also contained a Serra Angel and a Millstone. Oh, and one of those double mana lands.
I'd probably have sold em all by now if it wasn't too much of an effort to check out the current prices n stuff.

right now I hardly have time for any kind of hobby, except a bit of playing computer games.

I still have about two boxes of Magic cards and a bunch from a Lord of the Rings card game that came out around '95. Haven't played either in about a decade. Probably won't sell them either.

Way way waaaay too much oldie nerd stuff stacked and gathering dust in my closets...

I found something interesting about Magic: The Gathering and it's relation to Duke Nukem Forever:

Wizards of the Coast has printed six Core Sets, 30 Expansion Sets of Magic: The Gathering. If someone bought one of every single card printed since DNF was announced, they would have a collection of approximately 101,742 cards.

at last estimate i had about 500,000 magic cards, and i have been playing since 1993 when first released up thru 2 days ago at the local weekly torny

those of you with older card if you want to pull them out and possibly list them or load pictures i would be willing to give price estimates, and possibly to purchace some from you

Nah. I'll keep my Scryb Sprites From Hell. Nostalgia's far too cool a thing, when it does strike you.
