Yes, this has been done before but I'm in a good mood. So the discussion question is in the thread title. carry on.

Hardcore pornography and drinking to excess.

Sadly, an audience. But, I hate too much attention, so that's a fun thing to work out. Yay playwrighting, I get to have an audience and they don't have to know who I am!

NSG. ;)

Nah, not really. Music, probably. Gig-going, in particular.

mackin it wit da ladies (successfully).

Oh, and cuddling with anything when I'm completely smashed. It's bliss. I'd fucking cuddle with a sentient cuddlefish and be happy.

No one thing alone stands above the rest. There are different kinds of joy, so I'll list the things that make me most joyful.


the man I love/kinky sex
my family and community
playing music
my activism

I could talk rubbish all day, its my happy place

speaking of which: do working dogs get jealous of pets?

edit: don't you enjoy anything Soviestan?

I love my dreams...now if I could only sleep :(

I love my dreams...now if I could only sleep :(

My dreams are so close to being incredible like yours, unfortunately they skip around too much. It's like watching Date Movie, except good.

Joy for me involves a good computer, a word processor, some pencils and a drawing pad, some good video games, some good movies, a good book, some good food and drink.

Now if I could just get a girl... :rolleyes:

My Siamese Amelia. Her playfulness and affectionate nature always puts a smile on my face.

My hobby/obsession with aviation and the view that I'd get when I fly at 5,500 feet on a beautiful sunny day.

Researching history and going through old files in the archives and reading about the past.

Finding myself spirituality and meditating out in the woods as I get in touch with my natural side.

Cuddling in bed late on saturday mornings with my significant other.

Remember the end to 2001: A space Odyssey after H.A.L was deactivated?

They're like that...

Cue Acid trip

My boyfriend
Sex
Reading, cinema... any kind of story
Painting
Chatting with friends
My cat

lucid dreamer?
I'm one too. I have only about one nightmare per year because I usually remember the dream can be changed. For example when falling just start flying. Most dreams skip around too much and quickly move on away from any change I make but on rare occasions I manage to arrange really cool adventures.

To answer the topic...
Intellectual challenges like strategy games, riddles, math problems and programming can be quite satisfying to succeed at.

A walk in the forest to look at the beauty of nature and listen to birdsong is both relaxing and inspiring at the same time.

you like irregular bowel movement? :p

They're regular to me!

erm, would it be awful to say superiority, because that's about it right now.

Irish????

That doesn't even give joy to the Irish themselves!

They don't like potato candy?! :eek:

You've never had a good soda bread, scone, or corned beef? Oh...Oh...I feel so sorry for you.:(

being alone

People I love, and music.

music

Being with my family.
Petting my cat.
My current job.

There is a few:

- no schoolwork
- family is gone for the day, so I can sit around the house do nothing
- finding money on the ground
- a random person on the street smiling and saying hi to me

I agree with these 3. Though the money should be at least a dollar. Coins are useless.

Seritonin.

I value quarters, since I'm in college.

You like that? It's so creepy..

I'm glad that everyone around here is an asshole.

Lucid dreaming, I get it every night and it's awsome!

You've never had a good soda bread, scone, or corned beef? Oh...Oh...I feel so sorry for you.:(

Scones aren't Irish, soda bread is completely tasteless at best, and don't get me started on corned beef.... ugh.

I like blasting AC/DC at full volume directly into my ears. And when I used to have a 400w surround-sound stereo, blow them out even worse.

I have mild tinnitus I think. I also enjoy driving out to the beach, mountains, and/or desert and just walking around looking at the natural scenery.

Only if they have a creepy smile.

Sausages, cabbage, potatoes and alcohol?

Being on stage. Either that, or coming up with a complete list of the things I'll do to myself if my best friend and my guy decide to call it a relationship, not just screwing:
-Lobotomise myself with a rusty railway spike
-Cut out each and every one of my internal organs with a dull bread knife
-Gouge out my eyes with a fork
-Peel off my entire top layer of skin
-Set myself on fire
And so on, etc.

Sausages, cabbage, potatoes and alcohol?

Keilbasa, halupkies, bleenies, and boilo.

You've got it!

*fap fap fap fap fap*

What? Nobody else said it.

i like soda bread, it's like regular bread but a little sweeter and isn't half bad with some butter


im still looking for the thing that gives me the most joy in my life :(

My children, my wife, music, books, pot, and delicious bacon. Everything else in the world could turn to dust for all I care.

*fap fap fap fap fap*

What? Nobody else said it.

I would have, only I don't *fap fap fap fap fap*...

Vroom vroom?

Apparently, I derive considerable pleasure from mocking others on NSG.

Vroom vroom?

No, that would be VERY scary....

Nothing. Nothing gives me any joy in life.

Music, friends, food, and internet. Although I kinda suppose that implies I'm happy.

Someone to be close with. It happens to rarely that I derive stupid amounts of satisfaction from just being with someone else.

Aside from that, socialising. Considering I'm fairly useless with new people, it's a fairly masochistic source of gratification.

Love, friendship, Nature, waking up in the morning.

At least you've dropped that Ban Liden thing. A bit of mockery is good for people, provided you're prepared to take your share. :)

Football. When I'm winning. Melbourne Victory/VfB Stuttgart FTW.

Beg pardon?

What gives you the most joy in your life?

Maybe I'm a perv, but writing a pornographic story via online chat program with my best friend (also my co-writer) is what cheers me up best. :D

Gay porn, mind you - women don't do it for either of us. :p

I agree with the others who say "nature" but I hurt for it too.
I love my wine, but it's ruining my skin and damaging my brain.

I guess the only thing which brings me joy without a downside is sleeping.

Except when you oversleep too many times and are kicked out of job/school. :p

Your chosen name is "Ban Liden" with an "n" and a "d" swapped around.
Ban Liden is Bin Laden with an "i" and an "a" swapped around.

That's enough for me: you are the same person.

It's OK, I for one have forgiven you already. Tell us about your joys.

I believe you are confusing me with someone whom I mock.

I find no joy in this :(

I was a late bloomer in that respect, but being kicked out of jobs is in fact one of my joys. So much more satisfying than quitting :D

material possessions...............:D

Oh well, sorry. There really isn't any point in trying to unsay things. Words don't work like that, they are little fishes of time which sparkle and are gone.

Mock me if it pleases you. I have a lot of improving to do.

Yum, fishes! Sushi makes me happy. I see no need for you to unsay anything, or be mocked, however.
