Things you enjoy that most people don't?

Presently, there's no one I know who enjoys animation as much as I do. Most people think of it as "just cartoons," but good animation is so much more. Some of them are true works of art. There are many types of animation, but I'm particularly fond of old-school animation with genuine artwork where each frame is drawn by hand and stop motion animation (it's come a long way since Gumby), but some CG animation is also very good, and all can be fantastic. And it's not just the artwork, it's also the storylines. Surprisingly, they aren't just amusing but can also be sensitive, thought-provoking and memorable. There are often very powerful messages in "cartoons." I also like original short films. In fact, I'm going to start a thread. Maybe there are a few people who'd enjoy seeing what I'm talking about.

:oops: Have I found a kindred spirit? 🤔😊

This is my favourite animation

 

Watching lecture videos on YouTube. My faves are medical lectures, carpentry tips and lessons, and my #1 fave; cow-hoof trimming demonstrations. It's extremely doubtful I'll ever practice what these videos teach, I just enjoy watching them. They're my daily crack.
OMG @Murrmurr those hoof videos!!! My daughter and I are mesmerized by them!! It feels almost therapeutic!

In that same vein, we also compare notes and links on ingrown toenail removal videos, blackhead removal videos and ear wax removal videos. Certainly NOT everyone’s go to, 😂 but we both find them mesmerizing and relaxing!!
 

I am, or was, a decoy collector. Last century we had a famous decoy carver here abouts. Name was Richard Janson, but people called him Fresh Air Dick. As a merchant seaman he always slept on deck under the stars. Maybe you're related? How does Fresh Air Gaer sound? (-8
Ha Ha! Coming back from Alaska, people got cabins on the barge to Seattle. Not me. I slept on deck so I could "feel" everything!
Would have felt like Jack London except I'm a "gurl!"

Yeesh, while I'm sure they're satisfying to watch, I have to pass on the pimple-popping and ear-wax videos. But my hoof guy is definitely hypnotic and his method is satisfying to watch.

Plus he really cares about cows. And he reminds me of the hoof guy that worked at my grandfather's dairy, where I grew up. I used to watch him when I was little, mesmerized. Gramps or one of the farmhands would have to remind me repeatedly to "Get back, now son; give the man room to work or that cow's gonna kick you clear to next Sunday."
 
One thing I believe everyone enjoys but is afraid to mention is.....a good poop! A good poop is like a yoga class, so freeing and relaxing, such a pleasant way to end my day. I call it TM (toliet meditation)

Be honest, who doesn't like a good poop?

Namiste pooper pals, namaste.
Speaking of poop, when I saw my Yellow Lab complete a whole poop in 5 seconds, I always thought, "Damn, why can't I get it done that fast? It ain't fair that I have to sit on an uncomfortable seat for several minutes......"
