10. Chess, strategy computer games
11. Debating what it is that makes people do wierd things that serve no purpose. Example: You press the down button on an elevator, and wait for it to pick you up. Then someone else comes over to the elevator, and press the button too. Why? Its clearly lit up! Is it because the person wants to signify to you that they want to go downstairs too, and aren't just standing there for no reason? Didn't it occur to them that you probably know this? Isn't that patronizing of them? Are they trying to make you look bad? How should you counter this threat to your existance? I love giving that speech. Its very good for making people look at me strangely.
