Rolls of duct tape. I have every pattern and color ever made, from neon orange, to plaid (yes, plaid) I think it's worthwhile, as in the event of an emergency, I'm pretty well stocked.

Exactly, I worked with some people two summers ago who went on and on about the Red Sox, spouting off all sorts of numbers and facts and figures, forever. If I so much as mentioned a game or scifi reference though, *I'm* the nerd. Everyone geeks out about something.XJ-0461 said:
I collect Pinky street figurines.
The fun thing is you can mix them all up since head body and legs come off. I can spend lot's of time just putting them together so that i really like them. Not to mention the special anime and game editions that have been released.

Me? I collect junk. My room looks (looked...just moved) like someone grabbed half of a scrap yard and dumped it into my room. Basically, when walking, if I see something cool or interesting, I grab it and hoard it, maybe combining things to make them even cooler. Of course when there's a car accident near my house (which there are many, hurray dangerous intersections! =D) I have a field day, grabbing parts that were torn off or, when it;'s dark, making off with up-rooted road signs or even the caution signs with the lights on them.
Sure, it's silly and I try to hide it from any girls I bring home ,but I like my collection and won't stop for anybody.

My interest in anime, D&D and gaming stems from a general like of fantasy, Science (and, by extension, Sci-fi), and a good story. The majority of the campaigns that I've run in D&D end up being cyberpunk or technomancer (high tech, high magic).
Edit: Also? I collect books on strategy, tactics, and political maneuvering. My favorite books at the moment are the Art of War, The Prince, and the Book of Five Rings.

Unusual? Not really.
Any form of toy car.
I had two giant boxes of Matchbox and Hotwheels cars as a kid, and now I've managed to save about 10% of them from my brother.
They proudly line my desk and shelves, and in addition to the many smalls ones I've got, I also have various model cars on my larger shelf and in my closet.
They range from the 1:16 ratio models to the larger 1:24 scale cars...
Haven't counted in awhile, but I have a lot.
Ah, and my oldest cars are the two or three 1982 Matchbox ones my cousin passed down...
Sure, they aren't that old but they've been through a lot.
Oh wait, I think I had some pictures lying around...

I don't really -collect- anything, per se, but I have a slight fascination with getting as many different pairs of coloured tights as I can, as well as different patterns, etc. If anything I do qualifies as a collection, it's that.
As for my hobbies, well I play pen and paper RPGs (Vampire the masquerade and Mage the ascension) tons of videogames, and have an ever-increasing selection of sci-fi and fantasy books. I suppose those hobbies could be mocked, but not by any of my friends... except one, who specifically does it in jest.
