A Hypothetical Situation...

[Lackey]

Is it dwarf tossing?

no, but dwarf tossing is a perfectly safe and legal alternative to this hobby

this hobby wouldn't be caused by Vagina envy would it?

My personal opinion is that this hobby is more about attempting to gain a sense of power in life where there normally is none.

I'm not sure if this applies here but can anyone tell me if this is Swedish?

 

[Angry Sentinel]

Hmmm, what possible hobbies can one do that requires LOTS of money and yet this person doesn't have to pay for it. And gain some sense of CONTROL because they have none... What could one do, I wonder?

 

[jaguarr]

The little circles that say "NO" in them are a nice touch. LOL!

Yes dwarf tossing is about gaining a false sense of power. You guys are good.

I got a hypothetical situation.

Let's say I know this guy who plays baseball only 4 times a year due to monetary limitations because he's in some sort of league.

Then you have others who's been playing ball like a few times a week since high school or college.

Who would you feel would be more knowledgeable ones here?

What hobby costs 5k a pop, but would be free if one would only "apply himself"? I hate riddles.

 

[Kritish]

This sounds like blind_fury...

 

[Abaddon]

It's about blind_fury's sex with hookers.

 

[Kritish]

I figured, damn, Honey Vibe brings up some old threads.
I'm off to go bump one of blind_fury's hooker threads...

 

[Honey Vibe]

Is it somebody with a gambling addiction, or likes to put together cars? Do they spend it all in strip joints, malls or clubs?

Is the kid going to college and wasting the money? ...Ugh!

 

[ang_hulk]

you really need to mention the hobby.

- Give blood and participate in drug studies and then only enjoy the expensive hobby once every 2 months or so

- Permissive, push-over, wealthy parents who just "don't wanna know" why they've given him thousands in "allowance" and yet he still drives the same crappy car, wears the same old clothes and can't afford a Playstation 3

- was awarded some kind of a grant for aptitude with this hobby

- found pirate's treasure in a lagoon and has effectively kept the location a secret

I find all of them believeable.
