Fruit machines allow me to combine both these approaches to ensnaring a member of the opposite sex. For bonus points I let the babes spin my reels.

A game.


What recognition do you get? what respect do you get? would a member of the opposite sex find you more attractive if you told them you had the forum high score at pacman???????

It's just not important.

I did in my school and uni days and I did a bit of power lifting in my early adulthood but nothing competitive since.

Nowadays I do go to the gym (if i get time :( ) and participate in "activity sports" rather than "competitive sports"
I understand people wishing to compete in sports but don't see the fun in watching

....then you are in a huge minority.

People usually like to watch what they play.

I've always maintained that soccer, for instance, is the most popular sport in the world because, one, it's one of the oldest still around and, two, it's easy to pick up on.

I go against it in the fact that I like playing soccer and baseball but hate watching it but that's because it's usually uneventful.

Also many dislike certain sports simply because they don't know the rules.

Disliking watching competition entirely is weird indeed. Who didn't like seeing the two fellas rumbling outside in the schoolyard?

btw wtf is an activity sport? :huh:

Agreed.

I never considered scuba diving a sport at all...more like leisure, similar to picking flowers.

When there's competition....... even with one's self.

It's a sport when Sport England says it is.

Like Darts.
