Good morning! Yes, this is my own silly question.

Now, you might be thinking, "What? Is he crazy, or something?" And, yes, I sure can be whenever the opportunity comes.

So, would ANY of you on here count gargling as a hobby of yours? You know, bubbling water in your upper throat while harmonizing or vocalizing? Not just as part of your dental hygiene routine, but as a hobby, as well? Because, I sure as heck do!

In fact, I have been gargling as a hobby for at least two years now, and honestly, it's actually a bit of fun! I do plenty of gargles!

Also, this is just me, but, I sometime refer to gargling as either "gurgling," or a term I came up with way back in 2011, "gorgling." If you would like to know what "gorgling" is, please, do feel free to ask, and I'll be more than happy to explain what that is.

(slurps) (gargles) (swishes) (gurgles) (rinses) (spits) (smiles)

To recap, would ANY of you on here count gargling as a hobby (be it of yours or someone else's)? Please, let me know! I sure would LOVE to read all your answers on here to this question!

P.S.: Don't forget to gargle.

You don't? Or, are you secretly denying it?

I should also mention that I actually practice and do my best to perfect my technique for gargling (to vocalize better, to gargle for longer, gargle louder, gargle higher, gargle lower, to sing while gargling, and so on).

So, now you know. Gargle, gargle!

I don't deny gargling but there's not much excitement about it. I certainly don't consider it a hobby, more like a hygiene practice. I never knew some might get JOY from gargling!

Well, now you do know, and I'm probably of those people that do! I just... somehow find it somewhat fascinating and interestingly sounding. That, and also... quite strangely pleasurable to the human ear.

Feel free to go ahead and call me an audiophile if you'd like.

I do appreciate the kind insult from you.

Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle! 💦

It's a great hobby. Have you done it on YouTube yet? There are hundreds of gargling videos. I'd love to learn more about gurgling and gorgling.

Yes, but only if I am juggling, standing on one foot at the time.
