Guy Mocks Men Playing With Children’s Toys – Faces An Instant Shutdown

His hobbies are "watching the news and checking Twitter"?? Oh my days...

This guy is just miserable, look at his twitter. It's packed with negative whiny s**t like this. He's full of conspiracy theories, anti-women rights, homophobia, and more. I'm embarrassed he is Canadian...

"I don't really have the time for hobbies" is probably the worst response possible. Unless your life is a struggle to survive – as it unfortunately is for many on our planet – it is merely about priorities. Putting it like the OP makes it sound as if hobbies would be something inferior to the job. Why would they?

i'm 45 and (when i have time wich i don't have a lot since i have 3 kids, 2 playing LOT of soccer) still read lot of manga, watch lot of anime, play videogame and i wish i'd have the time and money to be more into lego stuff wich i'm crazy about but never have time to.,

I've been struggling with mental illness for a couple of decades and about five years ago I was referred to occupational therapy. I reluctantly went along - everything is difficult at times - and we were going to be model kit building. I sat for an hour every week gluing my little plastic car, painting it and adding the decals. I found it SO beneficial. Just zoning out and focusing hard on my project was such a relief. I arrived early for every session after that. Eventually, it lost funding which is a terrible shame, I feel really bad for those that would have benefited had it kept running. Anyway, I regularly build plastic models at home now and, as the benefit for me is in the making, I sell the completed ones on ebay for a couple of pounds. It helps pay for the new kits. Looking forward to my Millennium Falcon next! Never too old!

Part of being q hardworking man means you can afford all those toys you couldn't as a kid

The My Little Pony collection is probably one of the most valuable things I own...

Wait until he discovers that some adults enjoy colouring in! I have more colouring books now than I did as a child.

My view point is (for this and most other things in life)... if it doesn't hurt me or anyone else - it's none of my business. Lego away, guys! :D

I still get together with other 50+ men and play D&D, Pathfinder, Video games, Board games (Gloomhaven FTW) etc... I have a huge Star Wars collection and I have a fantastic career training technicians how to troubleshoot, overhaul and repair Light Rail Trains.... yup, I get paid to play with trains. I can also do all my own house and car repairs, put a new roof on my house by myself, rewired my home, raised successful and thriving adult children, etc... If giving up all the things that make my life enjoyable is required to "Grow up" then I will die before adulthood.

It's not a sudden trend. They just don't hide it anymore because why should they?

I started playing with Lego at 25 years. Because nobody told me its that fun.

This is another, random troll says a thing, INTERNET BLOWS UP.... I think we all need a little more fresh air

I'm almost 30 and I play with LEGO. Sorry, not sorry. 😆✌️

If ever there was a waste of time for a grownup, it's following Twitter.

If making space-shippy sounds doesn’t bring you joy, I am judging you right now.

I regularly destroy my students' believes of adult life. Yes, I have a gaming PC and use it for games. Yes, I do have a limited edition Chucky in a very prominent place in my living room. Yes, I know what twitch is,I just don't like the people you like. Stuff like that, it blows their minds.

First of all, please find something else to put by your picture other than our flag. As a Canadian, this is embarrassing. Model trains. The entire set up can be quite sophisticated. How many dads have gotten close to their child, or children because they share that interest? Lego? It's not just putting the little blocks together to make buildings like when I was a kid. It's also quite sophisticated. It teaches planning.A necessary skill the kids learn while having FUN with their dads.There are so many men who share these interests😱 & you meet people, make friends in this isolated world. Even before covid. I love coloring books. I doubt you've looked at those. There are men who enjoy that. How sophisticated that can get, well. It's actually a form of art. It relieves stress. Helps concentration & it's FUN. You gave up reading (probably serious stuff, )because you have kids? But you can go on Twitter? You read that you know. Try replacing it with a book. A FUN book. It might help you lighten up.

When I got a bit of money, I said "Imma build a dollhouse!" Which was then followed by four more. I need to do things with my hands! And, while I don't make space-shippy sounds, I do talk to my dog. (gotta talk to somebody!) I'm 45. Geek out on whatever keeps you sane.

Wonderwaffle93 has a G1 Optimus Prime and it looks in mint condition.

The key to proper adulting: (1) Take care of your responsibilities. After that, (2) do whatever TF you want! As a 56yo woman who plays video games, I'd be a little sus of a man who didn't have toys.

I guess Canadians can be assholes, too

I have many collectible figures, metal bands, film characters, retro stuff like Mr-T and He-Man etc, It's all displayed nicely in my "man-cave" and I love it and it brings me joy to look at it. If I pick up a He-Man figure you think I'm not humming the theme song at the same time, get to f**k.

This is just outrage porn for the nerdy millennial set. Nobody ON EARTH should care what some random - truly RANDOM - common-as-fûck old guy from Twitter has to say about hobbies. Bored Panda literally zoomed in on one person out of like a billion Twitter users, and highlighted their stupid opinion like it matters. Bored Panda MUST NECESSARILY AGREE WITH HIM or why would they post a random person’s thoughts like this, and allow it a platform? Like that person isn’t a troll. I know we talk about social stuff here a lot but get real. Draw the line somewhere. DUH people have dumb garbage opinions, most people are dumb garbage just like that Twitter guy. He doesn’t run shît and you don’t have to defend yourself against his opinion just like you don’t have to defend yourself against the millions of other instigating trolls out there in real life and online. Get a grip.

They aren't "toys"... they are action figures, scale models, collectable replicas, etc.

My husbands last "toy" was a plush Scooby Doo. Just shut up please.

All this talk about grown men…if I was dating a woman that played with my little pony and barbies still, I would nope the hell OUT of that relationship.
