Reading. Computer gaming. Modding games.

Moderators will take it down, so I'll skip it.

I thought that was a given.

Reading is my favourite form of entertainment. I also like watching TV series but nothing beats a good book.

Marrella · 08-31-2013, 07:26 AM

I wouldn't be here if it wasn't reading.

I tend to count listening to audiobooks as reading, too. I also like watching movies and TV documentaries, but reading comes first.

Does it seem that heavy readers are antisocial or at least introverts? 1% favor spending time with others as opposed to solitary activities.

Reading and spending time on the computer. Don't know if readers are introverts, but the poll didn't really have too many answers that reflect group activities. Though going out would probably be done with more that one person.

Yup, there is. You sign up, send cards and once those have been received you will receive cards yourself

I read a hell of a lot. So of course, I'm immediately tempted to vote for that. Except that if I'm honest with myself, I'd have to say that while I am entertained at various times when reading, it's not really the reason I read. So I'd have to say that when I crave immediate entertainment, I turn to TV/Movies (even though I spend considerably less time doing that than reading).

Stories. Form doesn't matter: books, movies, theater, TV.

grumbles · 08-31-2013, 11:59 AM

Reading and music, all else is amusement and/or distraction.

The cat has other ideas.

AlbertaCowboy · 08-31-2013, 12:18 PM

Reading is number one, followed by video gaming.
Hmmmm. Video gaming sounds like a time waster. I'll change that to video sporting

Lemurion · 08-31-2013, 01:50 PM

Reading.

I game occasionally, I watch movies/videos/streaming occasionally. Mostly I read.

Grace Elliot · 08-31-2013, 02:49 PM

Reading and writing - either is addictive.
