What do sober people do for fun? /Tool Contest!

Welp it's about to be first 24 hours into being sober for the first time in a year and a half or more. I used to smoke ganja everyday as a passtime and now my day feels incomplete. The main reason for going sober is to get myself a job or rather to pass that stinkin' drug test which I'm not even sure how fucked I am because I have no clean piss and they might even test me tomorrow. Which I'll surely come out positive.
But another thing that's kept me thinking is what's keeping the sober person from blazing it up? I just don't see how they could possibly be content with their time. But they're probably so used to being sober that they don't even see it that way. Maybe I'm just a high fool, but I see most things as futile, like going to doctors if there's nothing wrong or worrying about what to wear or anything like that ya know? What kinds of things do people enjoy doing sober? I honestly wish I was smoking a bowl right now, in fact I've been thinking more about taking a drag than sex today. The ratio of herb to sex thoughts in my brain are at 7:3 if that makes any kind of sense to you.
I'm glad I have yet to come in contact with heroin or have had the urge to want to try it. Until I'm already on my death bed or in my 60's-70's. I feel as if heroin would consume my life. I'm already extremely apathetic so heroin would definitely be a new kind of heaven and hell for me.
CONTEST ALERT! Name your favorite Tool song and if it's my favorite TOOL song as well, I'll give you a months membership. Contest ends 24 from 5:24pm EST Btw sorry if I'm a bit late to announce the winner. Good luck!

Ha... I've asked the same question so many times. My best friend has never smoked pot or done any drugs at all. And he's a guy who would absolutely love it. He's smart, goofy, level headed and fun to be with. I just don't get it. He's a happy guy but for some reason he has no desire for recreational fun. He's a great song writer... man, if he tripped once it would give him inspiration for a lifetime. I can count on him for some clean piss if the need ever arises.
Hey - everyone's different. There are skinny people who can eat like pigs without gaining weight. There are guys with massive muscles who don't work out. Good looking guys go bald while ugly ones keep all their hair. It's fucked up man.

Pretty much this. You cant think of any lifestyle that doesn't involve drugs because you've been in this rut for so long. Theres a huge world outside of drugs and GTA 5. Its really up to you to find something worth getting up for in the morning.
For me, its school and work (all chemistry related). I live a life that I actually enjoy and and it keeps me stimulated. I have little hobbies around the house that Im absorbed in. When Im completely bored, I find more hobbies to pick up. Recently, its been metal forging. I built a little metal foundry that I melt aluminum cans in. I pour it into molds and make shit. Or electronics. Or gardening. Or hiking..fixing up my bike..the list goes on.

Learning or building something. Whatever stimulates you.
Try thought blocking techniques for any thought that is related to weed. I find I don't crave it for those few days if I don't think about it.

I feel you on that dude
To walrus: I know what you mean I'm actually going to start studying chemistry as well in August yeah just getting up for something is a task especially when I'm stoned. I remember a quote from bill hicks “They lie about marijuana. Tell you pot-smoking makes you unmotivated. Lie! When you're high, you can do everything you normally do, just as well. You just realize that it's not worth the fucking effort. There is a difference. Why wake up to get into traffic to go to a job you hate? Fuck it. Stay home and watch cartoons.” - The Hicks and I wish I still had gta I ended up loaning then selling it to a buddy that wanted to keep it. But you're right, I am in a rut.
Dixi: I've been trying all day to focus on something else but maybe I'm just having mental withdrawal.

Well man I had the same problem because im in a drug court program and get tested regularly. I just dont think about it anymore but the first week or two sucks its all I could think about. after a month or two you will want it extremely bad like more than you thought possible its like you lose yourself to some sober dude and cant think as well. I ended up smoking one bowl 2 months after quitting and realized it was not as good as I thought it was (it was still good but I stopped obsessing about it) I smoked some bud a few weeks ago im still in drug court but got away with it (thank god) and it was fun but it dose not mean anything and if I cant do it all the time I don't even want to. (I like to stay high for weeks and weeks I used to eat brownies at night and wake up baked and take a few dabs and go to work). But I do the same shit I do when im baked just sober its not as fun but theirs nothing I can do but do my time and get out of drug court. I still do acid and shrooms and im about to get some aya but that's just a once in a while thing. believe it or not time goes by faster for sober people now that ive been sober weeks go by like days to a stoner. Its crazy man one month of being baked is like 6 of being sober.

Hmm yeah I guess you're right I should just avoid thinking about it. Right now I find myself rocking on my rocking chair at 2:30am because I'm simply not tired and I have a job interview at 8am tomorrow. I'm actually more stressed out than normal but I might just be getting antsy about not smoking. Awesome signature btw
I just got a call from my mom earlier tonight about how she rekt her bumper with some bicycle in the middle of the road and what pissed me off is that the prick who left the bike there came by and put it into his truck but my mom was too scared to die so she just stayed in her car for no good reason and took extremely vague and blurry photos of the bastard and his license plate. That's $200 or more down the drain just because she was dicking around when the owner of the bike showed up. For some reason I got even more upset than her and my anger was more aimed at her for allowing that bullshit to happen to her and all she can say is "well thank God I'm not dead" and it just annoys me because I don't even believe in God. As if he had a fucking role in this, why didn't God let her phone get a better photo?.. Just fucking bullshit I tell you
This has to be the most foul post I've made on shroomery so far..

Like the one guy said, building/tinkering with things, social shit (if you don't have Aspergers like myself ), games?? Traveling?? Art/music/sports(as I said games)? Anything that stimulates you intellectually, physically or emotionally
-------------------- On the ground you lay, with your dogs you pray, at a neon hieroglyph sky you gaze Hugging your mind, praying to survive, feeling the love of the hieroglyphs in the sky We all need more love, and mainly less hate Hate is the blind that covers the heart's eye That makes the heart's eye cry Locked deep away in the skies of our minds It's all in the mind

I used to play some vidya games but I think I lost a lot of interest in most games although I do need to finish Bioshock 2. I used to be so anti-anime but I started watching psycho pass which I know isn't the best but it's a start especially for someone like me who would rather take a shit and listen to Tool while my friends watched anime. It's really not as bad as thought it would be but I still cringe at some theme songs for the shows. I'll try to occupy my time with other more intellectual things 
I'd like to thank everyone who's posted a reply. I'm sure you didn't have to, but I appreciate your time and suggestions. I plan on going though at least a month sobriety.

Being sober is easy if busy and productive. Life always becomes stagnant and boring if you dont try anything different.

When I started off with psychedelics I thought they were the be all and end all of life. Smoking weed everyday was fun at start, but later on it got monotonous and boring. Not only that, I had a psychotic outbreak from weed and had to give it up for good. So, I was forced to find new hobbies like reading, gym, music, animated movies, travelling, yoga etc. out of which some I did before, under the influence of weed. Without weed I have more energy to do some of them like gym with more precision and intensity. Don't mistake psychedelics for life, they are merely tools you can use to enhance your life.

I've had recent thoughts about when I would quit as a daily user. Would love to only smoke maybe once a week or so.
With that said, I came to reasoning that I may not want to quit entirely until there is a strong motivator. For me, it may be starting a famjly, which won't be for awhile. But sometimes it's nice to get forced almost with a motivator to live sober. Maybe health related problems too. If you really want to quit, look within and find those or that motivator. A good shroom trip while sober and in a good mood may clear the air a bit. I would wait until you are through withdrawals a tad more. The psych can mess with your trip that soon off your daily crutch.
Just find that reason to be sober. Whether it be health, longevity, family or just to experiment with being sober and resetting tolerance. With no reason, it all seems pointless to quit IME.

I put someone's piss in two travel size shampoo bottles, In a small thermal drawstring sack and slapped a FOOT Warmer on it, not a hand warmer . Foot warmers go up to 98 degrees and hands go to like 130 or something. I put it under my nuts with three pairs of breifs on.
I had to drive for 45 minutes too, and I passed no problem.
Way easier than I expected lol

There is a song in the musical Camelot where the king and queen lament about being bored and they sing a song called What do the Simple Folk Do
They come to the conclusion that the simple folk mostly wonder what the king and queen do
So... Sober people wonder what stoned people do

Listen man this shit works only if they cant see your dick. Have you heard of mio its like a squirt drink look it up. I get them at the grocery store just take them home and open them up you can twist the top off pour it and wash it a bunch. Then put the piss in their and close it. When you here you have a drug test let it sit in hot water for 30 minutes then get some tape and tape that shit to your dick. when you have to pee just squeeze the bottle and it looks like a stream instead of pouring (I forgot to mention that the whole it comes out of is not as big as your dick hole so the steam size is off I just take a hot paper clip and make it bigger.) When your done with the test put the mio back in your pants and zip your pants up. If you have to open the bottle it makes a noise so I pretend to cough as I open it and close it. This has worked for all drug tests I have ever had except probation because they have to see your dick its nasty as fuck. but if you get sober I usually make a pee stash because sythict is expensive and its weird to ask your friends.

I quit for 2 weeks straight for the first time in 2 years of daily smoking, dabs and all. Was pretty easy to do, whatever you put your mind to you can achieve, you just have to want it for your self, if you don't want it it's gonna be harder. I just put myself in the mindstate to occupy my time in other places, if I have thoughts I instantly shut them down and go do something, you will be living a much more productive and busy life but there will always be that notion in the back of your head about how great taking a hit would be, shut it down and move on.

Things to do when sober: start a weed grow op, grow mushrooms, go out with girl, watch movies, have sex, masturbate, read a book, go jogging, eat exessively and cry into pillow until you fall asleep. Thats what sober people do.
To me being sober means few beers every once in a while, wake and bake on saturday morning only and one mushroom trip per year. Reading books gets my brain stimulated enough and good movies are also way to go.
