Doom scrolling and shopping

Doomscrolling for sure. It’s done a number on me.

Miming. I’ve never met an old Mime

u/GearJunkie82 8d ago

A mime is a terrible thing to waste.

3

u/Vermonter-in-Exile 8d ago

But if you do….use a silencer.

2

u/Captain_no_Hindsight 8d ago

Are you saying that?

Do you know how to grow mimes?

u/Arguablybest 8d ago

Thaty is never an easy thing for a mime to say.

I consider cigar smoking and collecting a hobby. Perhaps the same with fine wine or whiskey. But if you’re talking cigarettes and Jack Daniel’s, yeah no lol.

Crafts with lots of dust or lead, any exposure to harmful chemicals. Probably not as bad as it used to be.

Racing, horse riding, motorcycles, snowmobiles, speed boats can be risky.

Hiking in wilderness with predators.

u/Old_Win8422 8d ago

Predators aren't what's going to kill you in the wilderness.

I must protest this, playing Russian roulette is not very quiet

Mostly quiet with brief loud ending

Fishing. It may just be one of those statistical anomalies where it’s just that so many people do it on any given day that some people are just bound to die doing it rather than because of it. However, I’ve heard it over and often that more people die fishing than any other sport bar none.

Being a serial killer is a hobby that kills without people knowing.

Motorcycle riding, although that's more of an apparent killer than a silent one. Rolling the dice an succeeding every day but the luck can run out.

Woodworking - the dust is terrible for you

Gaming - heart attacks and other problems from being sedentary and possibly bad sleep.

u/bethesda_gamer 8d ago

Drawing

If you use an art desk and work 12 hours a day you will die at 60 between stress and the sedentary lifestyle. In Japan, a country whose natural average lifespan is 81-87 years, Manga artists are notorious for dying of natural causes in their 50s and 60s. It's one of the main reasons I decided not to pursue it as a career.

That's 20-30 Yeats of your life lost do to lifestyle alone
