I don't have any hobbies and I'm not really skilled at anything.

I'm not exactly the most interesting person in the world, am I?

Just because your not the most interesting, doesnt mean your not a good person.

[Gorou]

I'm more or less obsessed with guns, I own a few as well, sadly they're only replicas because owning real ones is somewhat illegal. Sports, especially soccer, were never my can of worms and I was always a little upset during PE when everyone screamed "SOCCER SOCCER SOCCER!!!11111!" because no one found any sort of interest in any other sport.

[sp]One of my other "hobbies" is to stand in front of a window and look onto the street with creepy expressions[/sp]

[MountainWatcher]

How about ponies, you guys?

[Stupideye]

Every weekend I dress up like a soldier and shoot my friends with toy guns.

I cut stuff with them

I think it's also about the way you present yourself. As some of you probably know I was a ginormous gun nerd and could tell you everything about almost every modern firearm in existence (and can still tell you a lot of shit about em) but I was some awkward nerdy kid that no one wanted to be around, I'm reluctant to because of social repercussions. I was pretty isolated when I switched to a "typical" school because of my odd hobbies so I took up boating, longboarding, and playing music, and shoved guns in the back of my mind. Sold most of em actually, but I'm probably the happiest I've ever been in a while.

I'm 23 years old. That means my first year of high school (grade 7, 2000), the Playstation 2 came out. Yeah, imagine that... suddenly gaming was becoming a HUGE hobby (as opposed to people in my dad's time being nerdes for playing games). But see, I'm a PC gamer through and through. People talked to me about and showed me console games, and I was bored. Everytime someone would talk about games I got excited until I found out it was the new SOCOM or some shit. Boring.

I was always that nerd who played "Battlefield" and "Planetside". It's funny because by late high school most of the guys were picking up gaming PCs and getting into huge games of Battlefield 1942. I went from being a turbonerd to a gaming hero in just 5 years, and in that whole time... I never really changed. The world changed around me. Strange feeling that was.

[Mio Akiyama]

I collect Disney stuff and got a bunch a shit about it when in school. Fuck them, Disney is the shit. I also collect Vinyl records and I never got shit about that.

What does being gay or straight have to do with anything.

Sounds... homophobic

Do you have a persecution complex or something? Don't put words in my mouth.

[Moose]

i like guns and motorcycles and chinese girls

if i could get a 17 year old flat chested chinese girl on the back of a harley road king and travel 3000 miles across the country my life goal would be realized

[Garbor 0.1]

Playing with Legos and Nerf guns.

Shit is, every people you know will probably say that you are childish for liking it.

[KevBeans]

I'm a disciple of music.
Probably the most universal hobby to ever exist.

[junker|154]

Yeah, people tend to talk some hobbies down because they do not understand them or are simply not educated about them. Everybody got their favorite hobby.

I like really weird and alternative music, it is not that odd, but people always think I am some crazy guy, but in a good way :v:

this almost makes me wish I was straight so I could say I wasn't ashamed of my love for Disney like those other straight guys

[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;32236229]Yeah, being in the Varsity Swimming Team was sooooo fucking boring. I had to wear a speedo, I got an all-over (most) body tan, I was able to glide through the water like one slick mother-fucker and qualified 16th out of 80+ other people in my event in league finals, I was able to become tremendously fit because I applied something called effort and I made so many friends during my years in that team.

It's so pathetic.[/QUOTE]

You missed the point

[QUOTE=Oblivious1;32249458]Glad to say I'm not in america.

Doing WH40k is acceptable and people actually find it cool. Video games is more than totally acceptable. Stacking cups (which my friend does) makes him special for some reason, apart from the fact he's awkward for doing that.

Oh sweet Malaysia, I'm still looking forward to going to Australia.[/QUOTE]

Oh sweet Malaysia,when will you stop video game bootlegging.
Really I have lodsoefmone and I can't spend them

Yeah I get tired that everyone keeps playing the same fucking sport everytime its PE.
We are getting less and less members in the softball team(I would join baseball but we don't have it derp) :(

Replace Nerf guns with Transformers, and that's me.

I used to like trains, then i got into warhammer, but kept my trainscapes for playing warhammer on.
Kept losing marines to the 7:45 direct :(

I've only ever had positive reactions when I tell people I do it. The only "That's pretty gay" reaction I've had is from my brother, and he's just a joyless shitpail in general so he doesn't count.[/QUOTE]

Holy shit, that's badass.

[sp]im joking[/sp]

[Skellyhell]

My only real hobby other than computers (trains and warhammer was a joke LOL!) is going out, poisoning myself legally and poledancing.

Id rather play trains and paint little men, because pictures like this on a saturday morning make me feel awful:
