Video Games, Working at the Pet Shelter, Anime, already being half-insane, avoiding most mainstream news, My Beloved Escapist, and getting lost in my thoughts...

Anything that is not strongly related to humanity, even if its just holding for a moment to look at the sky.

And in general, not spending too much time with "society". It's a bit like how parents tell their kids not to play videogames too much - if you stay connected for too long periods with culture, you'll either get depressive or adapt by becoming like them.

More or less my own thoughts. I think about everything that goes on, and process it. That's about it. Seems to work for me.

Games, music, and exploring every last detail in and making my own gameworld. I really like games that have content construction tools.

Creating Ideas/Themes for Games, Movies, Books, Etc...

Running through a brand new idea in my head is arguably more fun for me than actually partaking in those media.

The voices inside my head assure me that my mental condition is at its peak.

Corey.... don't listen to the others. You are perfectly sane.
I have another favor to ask of you...

Reading how peoples lives on /r9k/ suck. It makes me remember that while my life isn't that great, at least it doesn't suck as bad as theirs.

Writing, playing music, exercising and my near-constant state of closet-elitism.

Writing: All the sick things that go through my head when I come home at the end of the day I empty out onto a poor, helpless document that is shaping up to be one of the best stories I've written.

Playing music: I play the bass. Write a little bit of my own music on the side, though I've no band or anybody else around who can play a guitar or drums worth a fuck so it's just my own thing for now.

Exercise: Take out all my locked up rage on the pedals and it's made me one of the fastest cyclists in the area. Not that it's anything to be proud of when you consider my competition is old people and children.

Elitism: I won't deny that when I go places, I'm almost always thinking "You are so fucking stupid," when I look at some people. Of course, I can't tell that to them. I can't tell them their taste in music is horrible, that I hate the way they follow trends, that they're too old for plastic surgery and it makes them look like a freak.

So many things; let us count the ways...

The fact that my job is a paid form of anger management, and my primary hobby involves chasing people around and hitting them with the equivalent of a baseball bat.

My computer, it keeps me entertained enough to distract me from real life. Edit: Well I might already be insane but I haven't murdered anybody yet sooo....

This website, long games that are good, and loads and loads of sugar, in both drink and food forms.
