Mine would probably be most sport. Which is weird because I used to be really into sport, playing rugby every weekend for my local team. But then I just sort of stopped. And now I've got a bit of a gut, I should probably just exercise more often than go leaping back into the game. But as most people here have said, I'm also slighty intimidated by the idea of going to a gym

Fashion- I LOVE my comfortable clothes, and my geeky t-shirts, but I sometimes wish I bothered to know what was in style, the "now" look. "sigh" In the end though it is too much time, effort, and most of all, money. Plus I morally can not bring myself to pay $80 or more for a freaking shirt.
Oh darling you don't need to spend $80 on a shirt, thrift store chic is so in right now. Go to a nice shop and ask the assistant to help you pick some nice things out then go to a low cost or vintage cloth shop and find something similar. You'll look fabulous!

Organized crime. I think I would be pretty good at it, but jumping mid way into a criminal chain isn't as easy as it sounds.

Concerning D&D:

They could have college classes bases on playing this game at advanced levels.

The big key is to find a group that embraces the nubile minded. This can further be augmented by a lack of rule nazi's and the encouragement of RP over rule oriented play.

(*knows some DM who entirely neglect skills like "diplomacy," because he expects players to PLAY the as the CHARACTER. If you cannot play your character well enough to convince someone, then he wouldn't likely give you the benefit anyway.*)

Rugby.

I would sooner get into Mixed Martial Arts and be stuck in a cage with some 320 lbs Jiu-Jitsu ogre who wants to use my spine as a reclining chair. I have seen some dudes playing Rugby that frankly, give me nightmares .
Rugby is far more intimidating to watch than to play. If you are interested try and find yourself a local club. most are very approachable and will help anyone who wants to get involved.

Rugby is a game that anyone can play. there is always a level you can find. If you have the balls to be tempted by MMA then rugby would be a breeze. Ive played frot row rugby for 9 years now but those UFC guys scare the Shit out of me
Finding a Rugby club in the U.S. might be a bit tough. But.....I'll give it a shot.

poll dancing there has always been apart of me wanting to try but i never had the balls to go in and ask lol joking aside though i never felt out of place doing anything really i like to at least try somthing once and if i dont like it i dont have to go again.

but i remember when i was younger and first went to gameswork shop i felt abit uneasy there at first because everything felt so complecated and when they was showing me the models i was scared of picking them up because i might break them. After awhile the staff there maneged to make me feel more at home there learn everything that i needed to know to play the game

D&D I think is a big one universally. The fact that their are entire books of rules and the fact you'll more than likely have to join a group of strangers who might not help you out is a bit much to handle.

inb4 D&D players explain to me how simple the game actually is in it's basic sense.
I agree. I think I could get really into it, but I don't have the time/energy to begin learning that. Maybe in university if I manage to find the geekiest dorm room and spend my free days there.

I think the trick behind D&D is to convince a bunch of your friends to start at the same time as you, and you can split the material costs.

Ok nerdy-Warhammer, all types: Just too expensive, as I don't have a job

not nerdy-Heavy Goth Music: I just dont like the idea of suicide and murder being my idea of "awsome"

Politics.

Also metalheads frighten me. Not because the music is too heavy or they look intimidating, they just act so mindlessly aggressive all the time. They're like religious fanatics; stupid in a scary kinda way.
