Okay, post something weird that you don't really tell people, other than internet people or your close friends.
Mine is: I watch ASMR videos. It's not that it was a fad that I decided to try. I've always experienced ASMR, but it never had a name until recently. If you don't know what the heck that is, it's basically goosebumps/tingles on your scalp, maybe in your brain, caused by certain sounds for no apparent reason. The first time I remember experiencing it was when I owned a store and there was this autistic guy in his 50s who would come in and tell me Alice Cooper's life story. He'd just talk at me, not waiting for a response, so I'd work at my computer while he talked an hour at me about bands I didn't care about. But it gave me goosebumps on my head. It was really weird.
Anyhow, lots and lots of people make ASMR videos now. I once calculated how much money one of the guys I watch makes, and it was over $25k per year. And that was making just a few videos per week.
Anyhow, here's an example. I think this guy makes decent $ too based on the sheer number of videos and most of them getting 25k + hits. If you skip to 5:45 he's actually pretty funny.
