On Things to Do While You're at Home: Brush Up on an Impractical Skill

With extra time on one's hands, now is the perfect time to brush up on some of those impractical skill sets for which you rarely have any use. 

For example, building a house of cards, which, outside of perhaps building one's coordination and patience, for most of us has no practical application in daily life. It simply comes with the satisfaction of having made something flat and flimsy stand up in a triangular shape and/or the frustration of having it collapse at a moment's notice including as you are trying to build it.

I am not much for building card houses, but my Alice In Wonderland Card Game Set was sitting there and it gave me something to do. As you can see I cheated and decided to make mine on carpet where it's easier to stabilize rather than on a table.

If you're going to make one, why not a few more for a balanced trio? (With the added advantage that the smaller ones are easier to make!)

After I was done staring at these for a bit, I happily told them "You're nothing but a pack of cards!" knocked them down and put them back in their box. 

Anyone else brushing up on skill sets that aren't exactly practical?
