What would young men do for recreation before smoke pot and vidya?

What would young men do for recreation before smoke pot and vidya?

Gay sex

pot was there for awhile

though there was also opium

as for hobby that depends on class and culture

They fucked their supple teenage peasant wives they obtained via arranged marriages while drinking wine all day because the water was spoiled.

sports

I'm not talking about the fycking Mongols or some shit I mean Americuck millenials like me
What would their equivalent do in an earlier time besides rape and pillage?

Eating, drinking, card games, telling jokes and Bantz, hunting, sports, smoking other stuff, working, reading, watching plays, learning, etc.

If you are talking about America they had pot even in colonial days (and cocaine)

though they did play sports and read books for hobbies which is radically different from America today.

actually I worded that wrong

they had cocaine in the 19th century

Ask your fucking dad for chrissake

Eat sunflower seeds, smoke cigarettes and commit petty crimes.

go to parties and bang some sluts

Live life

Before video games, sports, going to the beach, movies, books, board games, the malt shop, dancing, making out with girls, etc. although pot was already in the mix for a long time so you'd have to go back to when they were working in some factory they'd been in since they were a kid, trying to keep their family alive by adding to their dad's meager income.

literally rape prostitutes and women alone and essentially enforcing social morality through such terror. equivalent to ISIS and Iranian moral police do today.

Farm
Also this

sounds fucking lit, i was born too late

My dad also smoked pot and played videogames.

literature, daydreaming, alcohol

Alcohol is an answer.

whores, opium and literature
literally my diary desu but with sex

>rape prostitutes
hmmm

Get ready for the redpill

...

...

tl;dr Whites are niggers.

brutal

Smoke pot, find trouble, party, and loiter outside

t. Was a teenager in the 70's

Dime novels were all the rage for a while.

>a teenager in the 70's
>not speaking Middle English

Same thing they do now ya dingus
>Hang out with friends
>Swim, Hike, Bike
>Read a book
>Go to movies
>Hang out/Fuck/Go on date with gf
>Watch TV
>Get something to eat
>Beat up minorities
>Try to sneak booze
>Play sports

Give me the fucking source instead of your shitty upside down phone pics.

Get shitfaced costantly on booze with your friends, usually in tavers with popular music in the background. If you happened to be a bourgeoise or a nobleman you had the privilege of being shitfaced with more pretentious friends in salons, with some nice music in the background.

If you were to be by yourself you would either wander shitfaced around the city/woods or read some nice book shitfaced in your cozy house.
Regularly you would have sex with a prostitute, usually while shitfaced.

>tfw ''she deserve it because she was dressed like a slut'' is a millenary prejudice that was used once to justify gang rape

Feels weird.

Edward Muir Ritual Life in Early Modern Europe
pls be more polite next time, faggot

what book is that?

Mind you the whole book isnt this lewd but theres a lot of odd rituals and details about the period to discover in the book guys. I can scan the book if ppl are interested

Wow, italians and other meds really are the indians of Europe. How will Gypsies ever recover?

Ironically the answer is "just whatever". Every generation has gotten bored enough to just pick something up and turn it into a fad. Some day people will look back on our era and say "did people really spend 2000+ hours of their life playing simulated versions of war?"

Young men in ancient times most likely spent quite a bit of time getting intoxicated on the local drug of choice and partaking in dumb hobbies we can't understand. Except they didnt have porn like we do, so they probably spent more time pursuing women.

mastrobation

>Except they didnt have porn like we do, so they probably spent more time buggering each others
Fixed
Also they were really into sports and betting on races/teams, but that's not too different from the modern era either.

they took one quote from a merchant and ran with it

feminist trash

And beers
Are you me

smoking pot's been around for a long fucking time

Slavs pls go

Never.

Alcohol and petty antisocial crime.

This. I hope people really don't blindly believe
Just because it's in a book. It reeks of distortion, half-truths, lies and bullshit.

Are those coffee beans in the middle? Wtf are those?

someone's butthurt. muir's a respected historian on early modern europe and its a survey book on ritual life and survey books tend not to have extensive footnotes to make it student friendly.

> It reeks of distortion, half-truths, lies and bullshit.
And how you would know, faggot? Just because it "feels" untrue does not make it false. I trust a scholars word over your uneducated opinion, tinged as it is with /pol/ ideas that anything that makes white men look bad is false.

Sunflower seeds.

kill yourself my good man
