So way back during the lockdown days (geez, remember those days, guys?) my bored self (and I’m sure many others) found some “interesting” ways to pass the time. I mean streaming and binging shows can only take you so far lol
So me being a giant geek and an “true blue, beer blooded Aussie” who knows their way around a good Bottle-O (what we call booze shops here) those elements inevitably combined. And honestly I still retain many of them to this day. For better or worse.
Drunk puzzling. Puzzle sales soared during this time, apparently. So much so that folks invented drinking games for them. Not even kidding!
And I guess I joined in on the craze. Though I just got drunk lol
And it’s surprisingly relaxing. I don’t know, it’s just fun. You’re buzzed, you’re doing this relaxing past time and you feel accomplished at the end. So many 1,000 pieces were made (with a few pieces that needed correction in the morning lol.)
I don’t what to say. This is just relaxing to do.
An odd habit I have is buying movies intentionally with behind the scenes featurettes on them. Anniversary editions are an easy gold mine for this.
And I tend to watch them before even watching the actual movie. Obviously these are movies that I like in the first place or at the very least have an interest in.
Case in point the Blu Ray collection (and previous DVD collection) of the Universal Horror Classics, released a few years back.
I had an interest in this collection due to having grown up on many of their remakes. And liking classic horror films in general.
And here’s me, watching all the behind the scenes interviews and featurettes on classic horror movie icons, the horror Stars of the past etc all the while having a couple lol
Just fun!
So tell me your little habits and fun pastimes so we may geek out together
