Biking, reading, hanging out with friends, the occasional target shooting with air-softs (usually also with friends). There are a lot of other things, but I'm too tired to think of them right now.

I read a lot, particularly Marvel comics.
There's a great website called www.TFAW.com that sells nick & dent graphioc novels for incredibly cheap. These guys make it easy to start collecting.

Urrrr... I can kind of play the guitar... a bit.
I like watching Sci-Fi shows and various films...
I would like to play Magic the Gathering/Warhammer/Dungeons & Dragons/other table top RPGs but with friends like mine I don't get much of a chance what with most of them not being nerds (or not being nerds to the extent I am)

Listening to music, a bit of DJ'ing, writing, working out, reading, the occasional drunken night out.

Oh and some general movie-watching and hanging out with friends of course.

Dude that's pretty nice, lots of neat shadowing and details.

His face and feet look a bit malformed though.

durgs and blacksmithing. i don't have much of a life.
Do you ever wake up with some bizzare looking piece of metalwork and wonder how fucked up you were the night before?


OT: I like to play bass, write, watch films and the like. I've also recently gotten into modding minecraft just for the hell of it.

I've been homebrewing beer for a few years now, and all around beer-geekery is one of the most prevalent things in my life.

I've been playing guitar for 12 years now. I have a particular fondness of vintage Gibsons and Telecasters.

I play a card game called Dominion almost every night.

I read a lot of non-fiction, but most of it pertains to either brewing beer or guitars. Maybe that doesn't count as a separate hobby.

I like playing the Piano, certain songs of course, I don't like the way I'm forced to play a selection of songs for an Exam, but I like being able to play 'To Zanarkand' and 'Fairytale of New York'. I also have Art as a hobby. I'm not very good in relation to the wide array of amazing artists out there, but I like to draw, and I can see myself slowly improving. I'm getting into Airsoft, and Writing is a little thing I like to do sometimes. I'm a big reader, I've filled about five cupboards (Big ones) with Books I've read and am reading, and I love getting together with some friends and headbanging/laying back to some music. Anime and Manga are little things that I dip into sometimes, and my friends and I play cards a lot. Lasertag with the family is great at the weekends. Minecraft deserves to be mentioned, and I like to tinker in Engineering, even if I don't get much of a chance to.

I've written too much D:

I watch movies, read books, watch ice hockey, play the guitar, go hiking, go rock climbing, draw and socialise with my friends. Games are not necessarily my primary form of passing the time, I can actually go for weeks and not pick up a videogame and it won't bother me.

Movies. Lots of movies. Movies, not games, are my primary source of entertainment. In fact, games are third, right behind the Internet, just ahead of books.
It's the same for me as well, but it probably goes Movies, books, games, internet. I love reading.
If I had a decent television, watching ice hockey, specifically the NHL, would also be on the list. Alas, the only thing my TV is good for is games; it doesn't even play movies that well, I have to use a portable DVD player.

(Wow, I use a lot of commas...)

Um...

Uh...

...

Oh! I have a aquarium! Always loved fish :). What else...does the internet count? I like to browse for anything. Watching documentaries (preferably about animals) is something I usually do. Games are on top though.

Oh and listening to Daft Punk.

I juggle, play the electric guitar and bass, am very interested in the amusement park industry, listen to rock music, go to pop-punk shows every month or two, and that's about it.

Internet, science (going to study physics/chem at uni after my last year of further education, dunno if this counts as a hobby or not), having awesome/intellectual conversations with people (which is rare in the town I live in >.>), acoustic guitar, watching awesome shows like scrubs back to back, watching awful shows/movies and laugh/shout at how bad they are.

Threads like this makes me feel like a boring person D:

Sword collecting, making improvised weapons, reading, movies, and... hmm... could have sworn there was another.

On the plus side, post-apocalyptic combat readiness ftw

-listening to music (this is more or less constant)
-Building/Modifying My PC (and friends)
-Driving/Fixing/Modifying/Taking Apart My Car
-TV/Movies
-Reading

Think thats about it, Does pulling hair out and rage quitting coding when it all goes wrong and you can't figure out why for hours, then someone comes along and instantly finds the error count...? if so then thats a uni term based hobby lol.
