Interesting. So tell me more about yourself outside your job and getting speed tickets. Are you more introverted or extroverted?

[–] odium@programming.dev 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

More introverted I would say.

I got the speeding ticket on the way back home from a hiking and camping weekend trip. So, there's one thing I do outside of work. I also like playing open world RPGs and 2d platformers.

What are your hobbies?

Okay, i think I've narrowed down the ages a fair bit now. Camping is hella fun. Where did you go camping?l, and how was the experience?

I like reading about philosophy, particularly philosophy of religion. I play chess as well, but not as much as i used to in high school. I don't play that much video games, so i prefer to hang out with friends anywhere really. I also like to gamble, I know it's degenerate, but I'm not addicted. I do it just for fun, and mostly when I'm with friends. I watch anime from time to time as well. In fact, it was Kakegurui that influenced my love for gambling back in high school. Friends and i would skip class to bet on all sorts of card games. It was fun.

I was camping in the Ozarks. Specifically around the Blanchard springs area at the recommendation of a lemming. It was pretty fun, my first time hiking in that region. My all time favorite place I hiked is definitely Glacier National Park in Montana.

I used to play chess a bit (1300 elo iirc) in high school too, but mostly stopped afterwards. Haven't watched kakegurui yet, but I've seen my fair share of anime. The only gambling anime I've seen is kaiji. My favorites are probably one piece, blood blockade battlefront, and gurren lagaan. Very shounen heavy, ik.

Mostly read manga and manhwa these days rather than watch ngl.
