Hey, SE.
So occasionally, I'll get an interest in learning a new language, or trying to learn to play an instrument, or something like that. Usually, I'm too busy with what I have going on, so it doesn't get very far, if at all.
I'm guessing i'm not the only one that does this, though i'm sure at least some of you are more successful at following through.
So, what's your thing you want to learn, and alternatively, what new thing should I learn to do?

you should pair them with lessons on being less of a fag
boxing is a good start though
I won't have to be less of a fag once I have enough training to beat up everyone.
how are you going to go about it?

Really I have no time, though, without sacrificing time I spend learning/practicing other skills.
yeah dude, the character sheet joke was clearly better

Daaaaayum no he di int!
I might pursue this dream this summer
(p.s. I know "like" should be "as" in this case, but that didn't sound as good to me.)
There are a lot of things I'd like to know that I think it's too late for. Like, understanding quantum physics.

scuba diving
rock climbing
kali knife fighting
spanish
lighting a match without flinching
that reminds me that that's one of the things that always sounds like a neat thing to learn
but then i forget until i see another harmonica
which isn't often

It is never too late. Carpe diem motherfucker
what happens if you've signed up for fag boxing?
t redfenix: I'll probably take some morning classes, maybe get some take home work as well
Then I'll train extra hard so I can fight you for the title.
- Learning Web Site Design
- Going to be getting back into a fitness routine in the next few months
- Improve my writing
- Improve my DMing skills/try out some new systems
- Improve my computer knowledge, ie setting up a linux-based fileserver/media center pc
- Improve my meager cooking skills
- Remember how to play the trumpet
Oh daayyyuuummmm!!!
start with that last one
seems like the most quickly attainable
unless you have like, a match phobia or something

you should learn boxing where i live, it's a traveller boxing gym. Real boxing.
really?
what yeah
I wanna learn how to cook, and I've learned a few things already it's been pretty fun
- Learn some slight of hand
- Learn to properly iron dress shirt/pants (right now I suuck at it)
oh i thought you were pretty good at cooking already
i share this goal
i just made some brown rice and mixed it with some tuna, but i'm pretty sure that doesn't count
ironing is all about the seams and buttons (if any)
and finding the balance between not ironed enough and burned to hell
just break up the sections of the piece of clothing in your head, and work at em one at a time
and i don't even like ironing shit
also, that's possibly bad advice, but it works for me

I actually studied violin as a child and learned that I suuuuuck at music. I tried to learn singing later and the teacher wasn't sure if I was just horrible at singing or if I was so off-key because I was tone-deaf.
no kidding
Jack of all Trades seems pretty great
doesn't make for a great salary, though
apparently specialization is for insects, and those that don't want to stay in data entry
