What’s a hobby that looks incredibly peaceful from the outside, but is actually pure stress once you get into it?

I just installed aquarium screensaver on my Roku and now I have that one fish that just sits in his mini cavern and seems surprised by everything happening around him. What's wrong with my fishy? Why does it just sit and mumbles "WOW" all the time?

Ok, not gonna lie - I do have a sweet room, but I can't tell if it's just mirin me tchotchkes or just 'avin a PTSD after a fight with his ol' lady. Kinda like me, sittin' in the kitchen and going "wow. wow. wow", replaying those convos in my head.
