I collect bouncing balls. Yep. Those 27mm balls that you get for a quarter from a vending machine. I remember when I was little my local grocery store had them for 10 cents each. I bought over 200 of them. I now have over 1400. :)

I'm getting 2000 more in the mail...it's just so hilarious throwing them around. I should get a picture up sometime soon. :/

I often enjoy pie. In terms of hobbies though, I like to read, watch media, and ingest organic material.

I don't believe I have any "weird" hobbies...just the typical anime/gaming/net junky/ect. Nothing unique about this guy.

I collect Wrestling tapes/DVDs/CDs, which some of you may view as a slightly weird hobby. Having said that, thousands of fans in the UK and millions in the US tune in to the shows on a weekly basis, so I guess it isn't that much of a weird hobby. Owning tapes that go back years is, however.

Other than that, I'm a fan of Knightmare (http://www.knightmare.com), which is a cult UK gameshow. I guess you could call that a hobby.

I push pins in people's buttockses and even keep a count. :) I've tried to stop, but I just can't; it's pretty addicting. :(

I stage epic battles between my two armies of stuffed animals, and compile lists of my pet peeves in a small notebook. I'm not sure which is stranger.

There was a point at which i collected human teeth but my acquisition methods eventually found me at odds with local law enforcement. i've since gone into hiding and started collecting cockroaches.

I like to beat my head against things, like walls, support beams, metal things.

I play Trading Card Gamess, specifically Score Ent. (www.scoreent.com) TCGs (TCGs usually based around animes Score seems to be the best at making creative TCGs, followed closely by Wizards of the Coast (Magic the Gathering, Pokemon, Duel Masters) and Upperdeck (Yu-Gi-Oh, and VS. System)). It's not so much that it's a weird hobby, it's that my group seems to be way to in to them, going all the way to California from Florida just to go to a tourny (granted the tourny has some big cash prizes).

My Pokemon cards are away for good. I think there's aboot 5000 of them. I look back now and it was quite the horible waste of money and time.

Ah yes, as for my current weird hobbies, I never throw away my Tim Horton coffee cups.

Yep. I finally got pictures. Yeah, they weigh 78 lbs(35.5kgs) and there's over 3200 of them. That's a regulation basketball, just to give you an idea of how many I have. These are 27mm balls. Yep.

If it's collecting you ask, I collect bad memories.

A hobby is hmmm..., picking my nose?

Sess020
07-02-2004, 10:45 PM
Wow, thats a pretty raging collection of balls...
If you ever get rid of em, have fun like, spill them of the top of the tallest building in town. That would be awsome as hell.

I used to collect magic tcg cards. Ive given it up. Any weird hobbies...does my strange obsession with FFX and FFX-2 count? I do mean strange. Like I plan to buy as many copies of them as possible when I get the cash.

Hmm. Used to collect Snapple Caps. That didn't turn out well, I usually forgot to wash them before putting them in the box, so they got all sticky and gross. I collect jewelry, I guess... I have 40 pairs of earrings and probably a dozen necklaces.

I used to collect Yu-Gi-Oh but I just made my best possible deck and gave the other 700 cards to my brother. -proud- My deck consists of dragons/female monsters. w00t. When you think of the money invested in this game . . . it makes me want to cry.
Uhm. I used to collect key chains and I LOVE pool. ^_^- I just learned a few months ago.
Hmm. I still need to learn poker now that I think about it . . . -mind fades in to rambling-

I collect Magic, and Star Trek cards, comic books, weapons (mostly daggers). Wait , let me put those in order: Weapons, Star Trek cards, comic books, and Magic cards. When the Voyager set first came out I was seriously into Star Trek CCG and spent $200 in one hour. I made the owners of that store very happy!
