Ultimately, I don't think anyone will, on their death bed, wish they'd tried fewer hobbies and made fun of more people on the internet.
I have a lot of fun at anime conventions, LARPs, Historical Renactments and other events that get mocked online. And I don't care. I meet girls, get exercise, and make costumes. I've made friendships and networked - I got my current job through a guy from my LARP group.
