my current hobby has so far cost me about $5k over 10 years

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Do we just guess what that hobby is?

I don’t mean this to come across as rude, but why would you make this comment and not mention the hobby; without it the comment is pretty useless.

i dink around with welding. clear?

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Crystal.

I could have guessed until the end of time and welding probably wouldn’t have been a guess.

That’s a cool hobby. I know if I had a welder I wouldn’t be able to just not weld random things.

its a serious addiction. very hard to leave it alone sometimes.

As long as it’s not detrimental to other areas of your life, I don’t see that as a bad thing.

a few blisters is a small price to pay for the satisfaction

[–] theherk@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

It’s detrimental to isolated pieces of metal.

You will be assimilated.

Honestly, 500 bucks a year is not that much to spend on a hobby as long as you're enjoying yourself.
