Badly explain your hobby

I saw this on Facebook and thought it was funny. Explain what you do for fun in the worst possible way, and let everyone else try to figure it out. I'll go first.

I pull a large wooden and metallic box to the middle of a forest on the shores of a lake, and live inside of it for a while. I sit beside a pile of burning wood and drink a beverage made from malted barley and hops. I also burn a considerable amount of the juice distilled from decomposed dinosaurs while doing this.

24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not.

You camp and drink beer by a fire. You tow it with a diesel.

Sounds like a perfectly clear explanation to me!
For some people, they also transfer most of their earthly possessions (especially the electronic ones) into the wood & aluminum box. Then they fire up a remote ConEd facility to provide them all the comforts they left behind at their sticks and bricks.

Ha, no, no diesel, but I'm not getting great mileage with the Ecoboost while towing.

Anyone else want to poorly explain what they do?

In order to practice my hobby I first have to spend money for something that several others have rejected. I next spend many hours on my back, standing on my head, or contorted in unbelievable positions trying to correct improvements made by those that have rejected it. Next I spend hours searching areas for items that are made of "unobtanium" that have been lost or rejected by others. When this search proves fruitless, I then enjoy cuts, bruises, and burns fabricating said parts. After this I dress in safety gear to protect me from hazardous materials to finish my hobby. After all this I travel some distances so I can enjoy this hobby with others who have enjoyed these same experiences.

You restore old cars, and then race them...?

Badly explain your hobby

I spend inordinate amounts of time far away from society carrying devices which utilize a hammer and anvil method to ignite nitrates which send harden processed elements Pb and Cu into that which I find worthy and providing a fuel source for upright mobility carbon based forms. In the process I irritate lots of people are in love with wood and leafy greens who think my fuel sources are just as easily found in society. When I can't do this, I spend my time utilizing fiber items with strings attached to deplete bodies of dihydrogen monoxide of fuel sources found living inside those bodies. In the process I irritate and .... off other groups of people who think what I do is unethical.

You are both a hunter AND a fisherman.
DiHydrogen monoxide - good one!

I'm thinking he restores old cars and then displays them at car shows.
The hazard suit may be for painting rather than racing.

My job:
I walk great distances, stopping periodically to gaze through a prism and record information onto a cardboard sheet. Sometimes I take a squirt-type gun along and shoot it at objects of my attention. Other people follow after me (several months later) and gather the objects of my interest and take them to places where they are made into smaller pieces, some very large, some about the size of a silver dollar, and some ground up very small. Most people are routinely surrounded by these objects (in one form or another) whether you are inside your house, your trailer, or if you are outside. Who am I and what are the objects?
