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.

@stefan Hm... there may be some cultural barrier here, but I don't get it. I mean, I get the words and what they mean, but I can't understand the concept. Or how people being jerks relates to not having hobbies.
@jorgecandeias @stefan It’s something like “you wouldn’t be doing that if you had your own stuff going on”
@stefan @RevPancakes @jorgecandeias My retort to that kind of bs is either "get a hobby" or "read a book." Maybe it's easier to understand that way. :)
@alisynthesis @stefan @RevPancakes In Portuguese we've got a common saying that is a bit more colourful and a bit more snappy than that: "vai cavar batatas". Meaning, literally, "go dig out potatoes". :)
