What is a hobby?
Noun - an activity done regularly in one's leisure time for pleasure.
As opposed to an interest which is curiosity about something.
I've heard of some pretty off the wall hobbies but this guy is unique...
He collect tassels. Not the ones exotic dancers twirl, from mortarboards.
No, he doesn't steal them, from his own graduations, he has 30 of them.
His wife only has 8,
I suspect because she did most of their supporting over the years.
At first I though what a shame, all that book learnin' going to waste.
But it's clear from the classes and schools he wasn't displacing anyone.
So hell, he's weird but harmless so have at it if it blows your skirt up.

I read a book recently with a character like that. The dude's parent's died and left him a fortune to pay for schooling and no more, and the wording of the Trust meant that as soon as his studies stopped and he achieved a degree, the money stopped. So he just kept studying subjects until he was about to receive a degree, and then he would drop out and switch fields of study. So he ALMOST had 30ish degrees.
