  3. I have argued this point in the past, as I'm sure many others, but it's nice to have a term for this concept: hobbyless behavior.

      @jorgecandeias @stefan It’s something like “you wouldn’t be doing that if you had your own stuff going on”

      @RevPancakes @stefan OK, so my lack of understanding isn't culturally based, but experience based.

      See, I've been involved in fandoms for decades, and I know people deeply involved in football stuff, both things very hobby-centric.

      And in both groups, there's jerks and jerk behaviours aplenty.

      So yeah. Not a fan of the term here.

        @jorgecandeias @stefan I’ve absolutely seen toxic stuff in fandom and hobbyist spaces but, at least in my experience, it’s usually a different type to what’s been called out here.

        Fandom stuff tends to be over-invested and insistant rather than apathetic and belligerent.

              @stefan

              I like this phrase ‘hobbyless behaviour’, because it just gets to the nub of what so many vacuous one way comments are these days.

              Being a keyboard warrior isn’t a hobby.

                        @stefan As a German I thought long and hard, what German phrase was meant.

                        My best guess is the question "Hast Du kein anderes Hobby?"

                        This is asked as question and has an even harder sting than the accusation of "hobbyless behaviour".

                        Because it ask "Don't you have any other hobby?" and therefore implies, that you made anti-social behavior to be your only past time.

                                Honestly with some distance i think I'd say german teenagers were onto something when they used "hobbyless" as the default insult in the early 2010s

                                        Honestly with some distance i think I'd say german teenagers were onto something when they used "hobbyless" as the default insult in the early 2010s

                                        @stefan It does not say what the German teens said "in German language".

                                        I am not a specialist for teen-speak, but "Hobbylosigkeit" (the direct translation) is something I have never heard in actual use.
