Leisure activities in life, which do you participate in?

[CyberCubed]

How do these categories relate to you? Copy the categories and type your own feelings about each and if you're involved in them.

Sports: I generally don't follow any professional sports on TV. I've played some baseball in the past, as well as hockey/soccer and I've went bowling a number of times, but I don't follow professional sports at all. Likewise, now I don't play anything.

Reading: I don't really go out of my way to buy new novels or books to read for leisure. Reading isn't one of my pastimes.

Comics/manga: Similar to above, I only read one comic series (TMNT), but I don't follow DC or Marvel comics nor do I read manga.

Movies: Like most people I see a couple of movies in theaters each year but I generally don't keep track of what's coming out nor do I own many movies on DVD.

Television: I watch only a select few cartoons and live-action series and buy my favorites on DVD. I don't watch much TV anymore.

Anime: I watch only a handful of anime, but I'm not a major anime fan.

Wrestling: I've never been a fan and don't follow it.

Music: Oddly enough, I've never been into music and have never owned any CD's of any genre of music.

Videogames: My one major passion. I've been playing games since I was 4 and own every Nintendo console, a PS2/PS3, and I have somewhere around 150-200 games in total and keep track religiously of what's coming out. I spend almost all my free time gaming.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I don't really do this.

Artist/drawing/creating: I have no art talent whatsoever.

Writing/fanfiction: I do enjoy this, I've kicked around the idea of trying to become a writer but I don't have my head in the clouds like all those 14 year old fanfiction writers who think they're experts.

What do you do on this list?

[GregX]

Sports: I'm not the biggest sports fan. But I love a good basketball game..

Reading: I try to read a book a week. I am always reading. I can't understand why anyone wouldn't want to read. Best way to build a strong vocabulary and learn about the world.

Comics/manga: I read too many comic books.

Movies: Considering that this is my career, I watch a lot of movies. I almost always have something on my DVD player. My DVD/Blu-ray collection is huge.

Television: I rarely watch TV. There's a reason it's called the Idiot Box. "The Daily Show," "The Colbert Report," "South Park," "Heroes," and "The Spectacular Spider-Man" are pretty much it for me these days.

Anime: I love a few anime, but not much. It's not something I'm that into.

Wrestling: If I'm going to watch two people fight, it'll be boxing. That's real.

Music: I love music. I am a fan of music. Classic rock, especially. Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Springstein, Eric Clapton, The Beatles, Journey, The Who... want me to keep going?

Videogames: I own a PS3, but I buy one video game a year.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I do this now. A lot. I weigh 250. A year ago, I weighed 315. Slimming down to 190 is the goal.

Artist/drawing/creating: I can't draw.

Writing/fanfiction: As a screenwriter, I obviously write a lot. Yeah, I cut my teeth on fanfiction years ago, but have since moved beyond that. I'm creating my own characters and penning my own stories, and it is just so rewarding. My first screenplay is underway, and it is... intense.

[Bloody Marquis]

Sports: Couldn't really get into any sports.

Reading: Yeah, I consider myself somewhat of a bookworm. Currently, I'm reading Good Omens. And so far, it's decent.

Comics/manga: Very few. So far, I've only read Watchmen and Batman: Year One.

Movies: Too many to list.

Television: Doctor Who, Life On Mars (UK), Torchwood, Coupling, Spaced, Scrubs, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, anything by Joss Whedon, Battlestar Galactica, etc.

Anime: It depends on the anime. But overall, I consider myself an anime fan.

Wrestling: Doesn't appeal to me.

Music: Not really a big fan of any band in particular.

Videogames: Not really a fan of video games.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I've been exercising a little.

Artist/drawing/creating: Well, I can draw stick figures.

Writing/fanfiction: I'm taking a Creative Writing class. And I do occasionally write a little fanfiction.

[Antiyonder]

Sports: I don't do competitive sports by any means, just exercises for health purposes. A couple that I enjoy are bike riding and swimming.

Reading: Read plenty of books as a kid, and still read some. Comics and manga I'll admit have been a reading priority as I only started reading them in my late teens

Comics/manga: Mostly superhero comics, but I read some Disney comics as well, and except for Case Closed, Kingdom Hearts and The Legend Of Zelda most manga I purchased are shojo (romance) titles.

Movies: I usually just rent movies from the library and netflicks with the occasional theatrical viewing.

Television: I'll watch a bit here and there, but I tend to watch online tv sites as they contain shows that aren't on 100 (not literally) a day.

Anime: Been viewing more lately thanks to some library checkouts. I don't like it anymore or less then US Animation. Titleds I've checked out frequently include Ranma 1/2, Boys Over Flowers and D N Angel

Wrestling: Don't follow it.

Music: Hear some on the radio, but otherwise not often.

Videogames: The last new console I got was a Nintendo 64, with my last handheld system being a GBA SP. Though I'm looking into getting a DS.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Have 5 pound weight I work out with and I take recyclable material down the hill to 7-11.

Artist/drawing/creating: I can draw, just not anywhere near professional drawings.

Writing/fanfiction: Done a few, but just didn't have it in me.

[CheshireKitten]

Sports: I'm completely indifferent to sports. None of it interests me whatsoever. Never has. Don't like watching it, and with the exception of volleyball, don't like playing it.

Reading: I love to read. I used to read more than I do now, but it's not because my interest in reading has changed - it's simply because I have less time.

Comics/manga: I read some graphic novels here and there. Don't really do individual comics unless it's something very specific. I have a very small collection. And I'm not into manga at all.

Movies: I love movies. But I won't rush to see just anything in the theater. I do love going to the theater, but I'm picky. I have a rule with dvds....if I know I won't watch it more than twice, it doesn't go in my collection.

Television: I have more television box sets than movies, but I'm very selective about my shows. When I get into one, I can be pretty devoted.

Anime: I don't want to say I hate anime....but I sure don't like it.

Wrestling: When I was six years old I liked it for a very brief time. Now I have no interest in it whatsoever.

Music: Music is like oxygen for me. I have a huge cd collection. Unlike movies, I'm not selective at all. My tastes are all over the map, and it changes depending on my mood. I don't know what I would do without music in my life.

Videogames: I'm not a gamer. I'm nostalgic for old school Nintendo and Super Nintendo and I have a collection of Mario games and a select few others for the NES. But I have no interest in any of the current game systems.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I do sit ups and push ups before I go to bed. I would like to join a gym, I'm just afraid I would never get there for lack of time.

Artist/drawing/creating: I love to create. I love using my imagination. Life would be beyond boring without it.

Writing/fanfiction: I'm obsessive about both. It's a very big hobby of mine.

[DBZNarutoWarrior]

Sports: Sports is a pretty big part of my life. I usually play in pick up games with friends in any sport they want to play. I was co-captain for our varsity baseball team in highschool, so baseball's my main interest. I also of course go bowling with friends and golfing (and mini-golfing) as well.

Reading: Hmmm... not feeling much for that reading stuff.... I only really read Harry Potter, and even that.....I still haven't read the last book. As a kid I usually read whenever I had to, or when I wanted to make space on my bookshelf but felt bad about giving away a book without reading it first.

Comics/manga: None of the above.

Movies: I'm not a huge movie fan either. I usually just see them for the social aspect. I have probably........10-15 movies on dvd at my house. So, I usually just see them in theaters instead of geting them on dvd (or dvd+theater).

Television: I like relaxing and watching some t.v. I usually watch Discovery, TBS, some Adult Swim, Fox, Comedy Central, TLC, and one or two shows on VH1, MTV, or E.

Anime: Anime is awesome. I usually watch Shonen, or mainstream anime not because they're popular, I just find it easier to relate to I think.
(Cowboy Bebop, DBZ, FMA, Big O, YYH, Naruto... those types of shows). I probably like about....20 titles though, so I'm not a huge anime fan as far as quantity.

Wrestling: I think I was in 4th grade when I watched it for a year. I only liked the Rock because he was fun to watch.

Music: Modern and Classic Rock are my favorites. I don't mind the new songs too much either, it's just annoying when they are overplayed on radio stations.

Videogames: Well, I'm out of the loop on this one. Call me crazy but I don't even care about keeping up with new systems now. I just have an old Playstation somewhere, and I have a Gamecube. I just don't feel like paying base of $250+ $50/60 a game (although it's probably easy to find them for around $25 each). So whenever I play games, it's usually Guitar Hero/Rock Band, or sports games at my friends houses. Of course FPS's are also a popular choice as well.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I was actually just looking for dumbbells a minute ago. I will probably go get some tomorrow. I'm not who you would call lazy though, so I'm not too concerned with staying in shape by working out on the side of my everyday activity. I think it would be fun to do though, so that's why I'm looking into it.

Artist/drawing/creating: Concerning stick people.... you can call me Piccasso.

Writing/fanfiction: No thanks, not my cup of tea.



Good topic CyberCubed.

[Draft]

Sports: I play golf, but i'm not too good. I avidly follow the Red Sox and the Patriots, and play Fantasy Football

Reading: I usually read a couple books a year excluding those for school. In particular the Maximum Ride series. I read a lot of newspapers and news sites. For magazines I read Sports Illustrated, Entertainment Weekly, Mad Magazine, Nintendo Power, Game Informer, and Shonen Jump

Comics/manga: In additon to getting Shonen Jump every month, as well as purchase Reborn! and Eyeshield 21! I used to read a lot of comics (mostly Simpsons and Futurama), but i've really abandoned that. Though I have read Watchmen, and loved it

These range from Animation (South Park, Family Guy, American Dad, Robot Chicken, Metalocalypse, Superjail, Boondocks, Futurama, Code Monkeys, Venture Brothers) to Comedies (The Soup, My Name is Earl, The Office, 30 Rock, Scrubs, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Chuck, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Reaper, Lewis Black's Root of All Evil, Sarah Silverman Program) to Action shows (My Own Worst Enemy, Sons of Anarchy, 24), and 30 days
Anime: I rarely watch anime anymore since Bo-bobo went off the air and DeathNote went into its second arc

Wrestling: Fake. Has to be said..

Music: I'm a huge electronic fan.My favorite artist is Daft Punk (hence name), in addition to electronic groups like Justice, DJ Mehdi, Digitalism, So Me, Busy P, SebastiAn). I also listen to some metal (I own the DethAlbum) as well as alternative music (The White Stripes in particular). I also like They Might Be Giants for their pure weirdness and zanyness of their music

Videogames: My first system was a Game Boy Color with Pokemon Red. I've had a GBA, GBA SP, and Phat DS over the years. In addtion, I owned a PS2, as well as own a Wii and 360 (in addition to purchasing a SNES).

Artist/drawing/creating: I have no art talent whatsoever.

Writing/fanfiction: I don't have the imagination to write anymore. I do kind of like to enjoy it though..

What do you do on this list?

[Captain Highwind]

Sports: I've been meaning to go to a baseball game for the longest time now. I've also taken up Tae Kwon Do and would like to master it as a sport.

Reading: LSAT preppin'... :\

Comics/manga: I hardly ever read comics, maybe just to see what Spider-Man's doing.

Manga-wise, Bleach, and I occasionally check on Naruto, but Soul Eater is fantastic.

Movies: I think the last thing I watched in theater was Iron Man. I would like to catch up on the Bourne Identity stuff.

Television: No cable. But thanks to Hulu.com, I have rediscovered The Pretender. Awesome show that I was too young to understand as a kid (I mainly watched just for Ms. Parker). Also on hulu: Bionic Woman, The Office, Psych, Monk, Muushi-Shi, and on tnt.com, The Closer whenever they upload new episodes.

Anime: Bleach, Soul Eater. As I've said before, the updated Soul Eater style from the original manga, is awesome.

Music: Techno, and some Panic At the Disco, off the top of my head.

Videogames: Resident Evil!

Silent Hill when I get over the shaky camera syndrome/ motion sickness. Final Fantasy VI and IX are still incomplete and on the backburner. Some Tekken 5 on PSP, I have discovered the handheld fighter.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I've been weightlifting/bodybuilding for I think the past 4-5 years at least. Another thing I want to make a sport out of.

Artist/drawing/creating: BA in Art. He sketches. He paints. He sculpts. But I don't think I could make a living at it, so Law it is.

Writing: Even though I don't think I could make a living at it, I would like a side project that pulls in some money some day, ergo, I have a W.I.P. web comic and some comic pages in the works. Seriously debating if I want it to go online or if I should invest in a publisher. I'd like to have as much planned out in advance plot-wise either way.

I just feel Law School's about to drain the life out of me for me to really do this though, but a good portion of the series is panned out in my head.

[Storm Eagle]

Sports: I'm not all that into sports, even though basketball, baseball, volleyball, hockey, and football aren't too bad. I don't play either though. Martial arts is also cool.

Reading: I was only really reading when Harry Potter was in fashion. Ever since the final book came out, I haven't been much of an avid reader. I ought to change that though. I do however, read the magazines to which I subscribe.

Comics/manga: I've never been a collector of comics. Many of the series have been going on for so long, and I'm concerned it might not be worth getting into them anymore.

Movies: I don't get to go to the theaters often, even though I'm still up for it whenever I can. I do have a big collection of DVDs, even though movies don't make up the majority of my collection. Still, it's nice to own the classics. I buy more DVDs these days than I do video games and CDs.

Television: Right now I commit myself to Power Rangers (duh), King of the Hill, The Simpsons, all three CSIs, South Park, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I'm also watching Ghost Whisperer, but only to see what the big secret is all about, which was hinted at in the third season's finale. TV shows make up the majority of my DVD collection. Especially the epic action series' and cartoons.

Anime: I haven't really gotten into that, except for Digimon.

Wrestling: I've never followed wrestling.

Music: I have a diverse taste in music, where my favorites include rock, rap, hip hop, R&B, classical, and classic rock. I also like country, even though I don't get to listen to it much. I rarely buy CDs these days though. I haven't shut the door to it completely, but there aren't just many CDs that I'm compelled to add to my collection. If anything I just purchase individual songs for my MP3 player. Especially older songs.

Video games: I've been an avid gamer since I was nine, and even though I don't buy many video games, I still play them, even though the majority of my free time doesn't go to it.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I don't really do this, even though I ought to. Even so, I'm still rather healthy and have always been at the ideal weight range for my height.

Artist/drawing/creating: I'm no artist, but I create list using Microsoft Excel, such as my own episode guides for some of the shows I watch, and Power Rangers/Sentai conversion guides.

Writing/fanfiction: um, no.


Now for something that hasn't been mentioned by anyone:

Volunteering: I've been involved with a pet adoption group since 2004, and I enjoy hanging with them on Sunday afternoons at the pet supply store to see the cats get adopted. I also enjoy petting and playing with the cats.

[thedanmachine]

Sports: Need to start doing them again. Ran cross country in high school and since then, nothing.

Reading: Another thing Id like to get back into. I used to read so much and now Ive gotten lazy with it.

Comics/manga: Dont really keep up with it anymore, though if something interesting pops up, Ill probably get it.

Movies: All the time.

Television: Dont really watch alot of tv anymore except for Spectacular Spider-man and Dexter. Been watching alotg of shows that have ended though so I dont have to wait for stuff to come out like The Sopranos, Wire, Deadwood etc

Anime: Catching up on One Piece

Wrestling: Dont hate it, just dont watch it anymore.

Music: Indie rap and metal mostly.

Videogames: Dont play alot of them except for my DS.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: see "sports"


Writing/fanfiction: Love writing fiction, usually just too lazy to do so.

[Punisher]

Sports: Pretty big on sports. I follow the NFL, NCAA basketball and football, and MLB for the first few months of the season until it's certian the Orioles suck and aren't going to end up above .500. I play football and baseball when I can.

Reading: I don't read much anymore, unless it's a nonfiction historical novel. It's not that I don't have the time, I just don't care for it.

Comics/manga: It's pretty obvious from my name that I'm a fan of the Punisher. Got most of his stuff, the MAX run being my personal favorite. Sin City is another series I enjoy, heck, anything by Frank Miller in general. And Watchmen of course. Besides that, I've got some Spiderman stuff and the new Gears of War comic that came out, but not much more. Don't care for manga.

Movies: Got a ton of them, my preferred genre being horror. Have the entire Texas Chainsaw Massacre series(six movies or so I think, a couple of them are pretty terrible so I don't watch them too often) as well as the five Romero Dead films, and the four Saws.

Television: Unless a new episode of ATHF or a sporting event is on, I never watch anything.

Anime: Aside from DBZ and Zoids, not a fan.

Wrestling: Love it, when it's done right. I stopped watching WWE years ago, but I catch TNA when I can(attended 2007's Bound For Glory PPV, which was fricken awesome).

Music: Huge metalhead here. Just went a concert this past weekend, actually. CD collecting is one of my major hobbies, and I have probably upwards of 70 or so in my collection right now, including the entrie Helloween, Iron Maiden, Amon Amarth, and Death discographies.

Videogames: Huge video game junkie. As for current gen, I've got a Wii and a 360, as well as a DS Lite. The older systems I have include an N64, Dreamcast, Gamecube, and Game Gear. Foolishly sold my SNES, Genesis, and Saturn years ago, which I now deeply regret.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: This is something I take very seriously. I lift weights every other day, but every night I do at least 300 crunches and 60 pushups at a time. I recieved a punching bag for my last birthday, but haven't picked it up yet. All of this has resulted in me having a very strong upper body, but I've neglected my legs so I'm trying to work on them a bit more.

[Juu-kuchi]

Sports: Used to follow professional basketball immensely when in 4th grade but stopped caring really. Was into Cross Country and Track in high school and fell out of them. Other than that, I have no passion for competitive sports.

Reading: Ever since my third year in university I've become more fond of reading for leisure. Sure there's some ups and downs of interest, but I've become more fond of catching up on some contemporary issues stuff, philosophy, and a dash of novels.

Comics/manga: Used to read a lot of comics during that same third year but kindof dropped off. Nowadays I just pay attention to one comic series that fascinates me (currently it's Brubaker's Captain America run). Manga I can never really get into, save for Negima. But I'm rather lazy to keep going on that though for the moment. ^^;

Movies: Love a good movie or two and probably watch at least a dozen or so during the year. For the past few years in university I've grown a bit fonder of trying to watch the classic stuff, and getting in tune with things that are different and movies that are considered cult classics but I never got really into. It's rather eclectic so to speak, a few months ago I was just watching Werner Herzog's Nosferatu on the screen, then months later it's B-movies and just recently Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Television: Don't watch much TV anymore. Used to be fond of the animation block on Fox Sundays but after some of the programmes bit the dust in terms of quality I don't watch them either. Nowadays I'm just fond of a small handful of animated goods from either what's left in the block with quality or Adult Swim. Whichever catches my eye, same with live-action shows, but that's a rarity.

Anime: Relatively big fan. While not watching as much as I could, I tend to really try to follow a fair amount of series ranging from the comedic to the action-packed ones. Just recently I've been following Gundam 00, Gurren Lagann, yet hoping to get back into comedic shows like Ouran High School Host Club. Just so many anime, and so little time.

Wrestling: Don't follow it at all. Only worthwhile gem in this category was playing the THQ games on the N64.

Music: Strangely like Japanese, anime, and video game music over some of the other stuff. I don't know why, but ever since I got into them I just... enjoy them for some reason. Not to say anything wrong with some of the stuff around here, I likes my Dragonforce, Duran Duran, and Iron Maiden. But there's just something about what I usually listen to that interests me.

Videogames: Still playing them to this day. Have a Wii, PS2, DS, and Xbox 360. Like an eclectic blend of games from action, adventure, RPG, etc. But nowadays I'm a bit more scrupulous in my game time and investing. When I want to invest in a game, I want to get my money's worth. If a game can take me 40 hours to beat yet cost like... $15 to 20 and it's good, it's worthwhile value for me. Which is mostly why I like RPGs, and if an action game is quite lengthy for its standards and has good gameplay, the same goes there. I also like the classics whenever I find myself aching for some good nostalgia, so I still have a connection there.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Used to do this a lot during my first and second year in university then petered off. Now as long as a friend of mine wants me to run I've become more motivated in doing so. Something I should probably do more by myself, but having others helps immensely.

Artist/drawing/creating: Completely have no artistic merit in drawing. But I do create an Abridged Series if that's even a proper categorization for this.

Writing/fanfiction: Eh, tried to dabble in fanfiction, but didn't really appeal to me. Writing on the other hand, in regards to critical reviews and insights on things I really quite enjoy, and the occasional creative idea or two for the aforementioned Abridged Series, if that even counts.

[Daxdiv]

Here the thing, I always consider Abridged series to be fanfic, just that everyone is OOC, and you have a pre-existing animation to go by.

[purplehairedwonder]

Sports: I play college softball; been playing since I was 4 years old. It's a huge part of my life. I'd like to coach when I'm older. MLB-wise, I'm also a huge Atlanta Braves fan (currently rooting for the Rays in the playoffs, though). NFL-wise, I like to root for the Falcons. College football-wise, I root for Georgia Tech and Montana State.

Reading: I love reading. I'm an English major, so I do a lot of school-related reading during the school year. I'd read more if I had time, but I'm just too busy. But whenever I get the chance, I like nothing more than to sit down with a good book.

Comics/manga: I try to collect some manga and keep up with others. I'm current with Naruto, Vampire Knight, and Ouran High School Host Club. I'm working on One Piece. Not to mention, the final arc of Kenshin was manga-only and that was awesome.

Movies: I haven't seen many movies in the last few years. I used to go with my best friend all the time, but now we're on opposite sides of the country so I only go if there is something I have to see, like Harry Potter or the upcoming Twilight movie. The last movie I saw in theaters was The Dark Knight :sweat:

Television: I follow baseball on TV. I also have to watch The Biggest Loser, America's Next Top Model, Ghost Hunters, and What Not to Wear. Otherwise, I'll usually leave it on ESPN for background noise.

Anime: Besides softball, this is my major hobby. Unfortunately, I haven't had much in the way of time this semester to keep up with a lot of series that I wanted to, so my backlog is huge. But now that I have a job, I'm trying to buy more anime.

Wrestling: I watched WCW back when I was like 12, but when that folded, I lost interest.

Music: My iPod is one of my most prized possessions. I'm practically always listening to it. I like mostly alternative music, though I have a pretty eclectic taste. Over the summer I went to an R.E.M. concert and a Backstreet Boys concert. A friend and I got tickets for a 3 Doors Down concert, but it was postponed, so we need to find out if our old tickets will be honored for the new date.

Videogames: I have a Gameboy Advance SP that I play with when I get really bored, but that's about it. I'd love to get a Wii, though.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Since I'm on my college's softball team, we weight lift/condition in the fall and have to hit the gym on our own during season in the spring.

Artist/drawing/creating: I can't draw to save my life.

Writing/fanfiction: I'm doing a creative writing concentration for my English major, so yeah. I aspire to becoming an author, so we'll see how that turns out. I'm also a writing tutor in our school's writing center. I also write fan fiction, though with my busy schedule, have been horrible about updating the ongoing ones. They are mostly anime-related, but not all of them are. I started back in high school and can definitely say that my writing has improved drastically just from writing fan fics. I love doing it, but I'm just too busy anymore.

[Harlan_Phoenix]

Sports: I only like curling and fencing, and even then I rarely watch them.

Reading: I'd like to read more, and will start to. I'm really big into reading religious texts.

Comics/manga: Comics are badass. 'Nuff said. Love 'em.

Movies: Not a movie buff, really. I like movies, but I'm not really into them as a medium. I don't deny how amazing some can be, though.

Television: Mostly watch cartoons. And Power Rangers.

Anime: Good anime are awesome.

Wrestling: Acquired taste, and I know a few pro wrestlers (mostly in Ohio based, non televised leagues).

Music: Rock n' roll, baby.

Videogames: Older games. I despise the current gen. Last gen was okay. This gen sucks.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I'm a total wuss, so no.

Artist/drawing/creating: Not me.

Writing/fanfiction: I like writing, but need to get better because I don't do it enough. I'd like to write comics one day.

[Timmay]

Sports: I played basketball in Junior High and High school, and ran track my senior year.

Reading: I probably read more growing up as a kid than I do now.

Comics/manga: I've never read any comics. The amount of manga I've read however, is staggering.

Movies: I watch movies like the average person does.

Television: Comedy Central stuff, Adult Swim, generally I try to watch any anime that gets aired on cable.

Anime: I watch a decent bit, but I'm really more of a guy to hunt down the manga and read it instead if there is one.

Wrestling: Watched as a kid.

Video Games: Up until two weeks ago, I didn't own any console newer than my n64.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Still in decent shape from doing 7 years of basketball, I don't do anything now though.

Artist/drawing/creating: Nope

Writing/Fanfiction: I once got an honorable mention at a regional writing competition for an essay I wrote. I wouldn't say that I'm a good writer though.

[Shawn Hopkins]

Sports: Most people in the part of Kentucky I'm from bleed blue for UK Basketball, but in my family no interest in watching spectator sports was nurtured and in some cases it was discouraged. My grandfather hated basketball because it sometimes preempted the news. We did play sports and games when I was a kid and rollerskate. Now I like going bowling if other people will go with me and I want to learn to play golf.

Reading: I was a massive book worm growing up, reading lots of horror and science fiction novels. After I became a reporter, though, I just didn't make as much time for it and read books only sporadically. I usually have one I'm working on, but it's in fits and spurts and I don't make it to the vaunted book a week. I got to read a lot of books while I was unemployed recently, though, and I should be able to make the time with my new job so I got a library card. I still like SF and some horror, but I've expanded my focus since then and really like reading history, essayists like David Sedaris, and others.
Comics/manga: Comic collecting has always been one of my major hobbies. I have something like 14,000 comic books sitting in a room at my family's house. There are so many they are a major problem because it would be ridiculous to try to store them in any of the apartments I've lived in, and moving them is a chore. My focus is heavy on the superheroes and humor independent comics, my manga collection is much smaller. I unfortunately live in a town without a comic shop or even a bookstore, now, so it's very hard to follow new comics. I just try to get Buffy when I'm out of town and I still buy old comics and the occasional TPB.

Movies: Movies are great, generally, but most of the stuff that plays in the theater nowadays just doesn't interest me enough to go see it even if I have nothing else to do these days. I will go see things when they seem interesting enough. I also occasionally get movies through my Netflix.

Television: Don't have cable and haven't for about four years. Didn't even have an antenna for three of those. But I did have Netflix so I could get stuff on DVD like Smallville and Arrested Development. Also a major Buffy and Angel fan and have everything on DVD. Now that I have an antenna I watch the evening news and David Letterman on one of the two channels I get and even some sitcoms occasionally. I have also discovered online sites like HULU and am no enjoying The Daily Show, Total Drama Island and Fringe. I love Mythbusters whenever I'm somewhere I can catch it.

Anime: Mainly into the older anime, mostly Rumiko Takahashi stuff, like Ranma. I have about 300 anime but they're mostly on VHS tapes that I bought very cheaply and I haven't watched many of them. I have several complete seasons, including the first five Ranma seasons.

Wrestling: When I was a kid I liked NWA. I remember the Rock 'N Roll Express and the Midnight Express having a scaffold match. I think wrestling is something most people that aren't hardcore about it eventually grow out of, though.

Music: I love most music. Everything from bluegrass to j-pop and a lot of stops in between. I have this theory that one should "rock out" at least once a day to keep sane, although for me all that means is listening to some good rock music. I also like going to concerts and shows when I get the chance.

Video games: It started with the Atari 2600 and kept going from there. If you asked me straight up what kind of nerd I am, I'd have a hard time deciding between comic book or video game. I've spent an awful lot of time playing games, during the NES and SNES eras I would rent one every weekend and try to beat it. I have several different consoles, most of the major ones from the 2600 to the Xbox 360 and some obscure ones like the 3DO and CDI. Altogether I have hundreds of games for them. I still play them, too, especially working through my PS2 RPG backlog, but recently I broke out my Saturn and Sega CD. And since I got a new HDTV I've been playing my 360 more. I'm more of an RPG, FPS and platformer gamer than a twitch or shooter gamer.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I need to get back into this. I've bought the workout clothes but not the gym membership yet. At one point I excercised heavily and lost nearly 50 pounds, but I let it come back with a vengeance and am only just starting to get it under control.

Artist/drawing/creating: Used to love to draw and take art classes, but don't really do it anymore and whatever skills I used to have seem to have atrophied.

Writing/fanfiction: I've always been a writer to make a living, first as a reporter and now as a PR guy. I also like writing short stories, poems and novels, although I don't spend as much time with that as a should. Honestly, being a novelist is the career I've always wanted. I think right now I should get serious about it. I don't care for fanfiction, either writing or reading it. I think things focusing on original characters are more interesting.

[Michael24]

Sports: I was big into sports when I was a kid. I alternated playing baseball and soccer for several years and won some local championships. I also followed professional baseball and football. However, by the mid-90s, things were changing. I eventually stopped playing, the 1994 MLB strike completely killed my interest in baseball, and I gradually stopped watching football as my favorite players began to retire or get traded off. I still like to play a game of baseball, soccer, or volleyball with friends, and on a rare occasion I'll watch a hockey game with my brother, but otherwise sports are pretty much low on my scale of interests nowadays.

Reading: I've become more of a reader in these later years of my life than when I was younger. I always associated reading with have to read "classics" in school that I didn't like, so I resisted reading on my own for a long time. (Simple childrens books aside, of course.) It wasn't until around 1992 or so, upon the discovery of Brian Daley's The Han Solo Adventures and Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park, that I really got interested in reading. In recent years I find myself not getting around to reading very often, but I still buy books that I'm interested in, with the intention of eventually getting around to reading them. I have a lot of favorite books, but Crichton is the only author I follow exclusively.

Comics/manga: I was heavily into comics in the early-90s. A comic shop opened in my neighborhood in 1991, and my best friend and I frequented it so much that within a year the employees knew us by name. I read and bought comics almost on a weekly basis from 1991 to about 1994, and eventually dropped out altogether by 1995. In 2004 I got back into comics a little bit when Image Comics brought back ShadowHawk, though my interest is nowhere near the level it was back then. But I still pick up the occasional book here and there, tend to stay up on what's going on in the world of comics, and still have 2-3 boxes of comics from the '90s that I like to flip through every so often.

Movies: Movies are my life. The first movie I ever saw was Raiders of the Lost Ark at the drive-in, and I've basically been hooked on movies ever since. My theater-going experience has changed, though. In the '80s and '90s, I could go probably a dozen times a month. Nowadays, I don't go as often as I used to (rising ticket prices, distance to the theater, as we've since moved), but I still see maybe an average of 6-7 movies a year. I also buy lots of DVDs, though I'm trying to be more selective about what I purchase. Since 2005, I've also been a subscriber to NetFlix in order to catch up on older titles the video stores don't usually stock, as well as new releases. So yeah, movies are a huge part of my life and basically what I live for. :)

Television: I still watch television on a daily basis, but I don't watch as many first-run series as I used to. This season, there's only about seven first-run shows that I make an effort to watch. The rest I watch are either reruns or various cable series, like Modern Marvels on History Channel.

Anime: Not into anime. Occasionally I've seen one here or there that I've liked, such as Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, but overall it's a style I'm just not really into.

Wrestling: I remember growing up with the likes of "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Andre the Giant, and of course Hulk Hogan, but I was never a regular viewer. For a few-year span in the late-90s/early-2000s, I used to watch a couple times a week with my brother, but quickly lost interest.

Music: Like movies, music as been in my life since I was very little. My parents had a pretty big vinyl LP collection, so I was introduced to music through the likes of The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Gordon Lightfoot, Paul Revere and the Raiders, and many others. I like to listen to a little bit of everything, except for rap/hip-hop and the really heavy metal stuff with the I-​like-​to-​screa​m-​a-​lot-​becau​se-​my-​lyric​s-​lack-​subst​ance-​and-I-​must-​hide-​it-​with-​my-​Cooki​e-​Monst​er-​vocal​s. I mostly listen to rock and oldies, as well as country, pop, and some New Age. I don't really have very many new favorites from recent years. Most of the singers/bands I like are those who have been around for years. I find there's so much crap out there nowadays that I don't like to experiment much with new acts and just sort of stick to who I already know. Though occasionally I find a new act to like. I'm also very much into film scores, as a result of growing up with my dad's vinyl collection of things like Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Alien, and Star Trek. I have 200+ soundtracks.

Video games: I'm not as much into video games nowadays as I used to be in the '80s and much of the '90s. As games evolved and got more elaborate and fancy, I found myself liking them less and less. I still play the occasional new game, such as Lego Star Wars and the GTA series, but for the most part, I'm much more an old school gamer who tends to play his NES, Genesis, and N64 more often than the PS2 or Xbox 360.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I don't do this anywhere near as much as I probably should, though I never really had a reason to as I've never exactly been overweight. I also sometimes just lack the patience to stick it out with something and wait for results, so I could just never motivate myself to work out regularly.

Artist/drawing/creating: I've never been much of an artist and probably couldn't even draw to save my life. But I occasionally like to doodle and sketch. I'm a little better at creating things like rudimentary vehicles and objects than I am people.

Writing/fanfiction: I've been interested in writing for about as long as I've been interested in reading. Jurassic Park not only sparked an interest in reading, but also writing, and I began exploring my imagination coming up with various stories. Of course, all those early efforts turned out to be quite awful. But I think I've gotten better over the years and have always dreamed of publishing at least one novel. For the last couple of years I've been trying to get a fantasy novel off the ground, but it's far from the completion. But I love world creation. Thinking up and writing down character biographies, information on the worlds or lands I'm writing about, vehicles, creatures, all that kind of stuff. I get a real thrill out of just creating. I've dabbled in fan-fiction, but not exclusively.

[Dr.Pepper]

Sports: I am not into sports what so ever

Writing/fanfiction: I have many ideas in my head but I can''t get the out.

[WolfieKiwi]

Sports: I like beach volleyball and tennis but I can't play for long due to asthma. =/

Reading: Whenever I have the spare time. I'm currently reading 1984...again.

Comics/manga: Not so much comics, just manga. Bleach, Pandora Hearts, Yankee-kun to Megane-chan and Deadman Wonderland to name a few.

Movies: A wide variety; from animated films like WALL*E to satire black comedies like Burn After Reading to oldies like The Odd Couple and Young Frankenstein.

Television: I watch the teli on week nights on channels USA or FOX; shows like Seinfeld, House MD, Monk, CSI, and Ugly Betty. 'Been missing a lot of Scrubs lately...

Anime: Just like the movies, it's a wiide variety. From Samurai Champloo to Paradise Kiss to Gintama to Nodame Cantabile to Bleach to My Neighbor Totoro...it goes on.

Wrestling: Mostly as a child. It was fun listening to the hate speeches. "And when I get my hands on you brutherr...!!"

Music: Again, a wiide variety. If I had to pick a few genres I'd say Alternative Rock, Techno and J-pop.

Video games: My anti drug and most active hobby next to drawing. I've got tons of apparel stuff like shirts, toys and posters besides the games so I don't think I'm going to stop being a gamer anytime soon. As for preferences, this one likes strategy and survival horror the most.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I walk home after school on good days. The distance is about a mile, I think.

Artist/drawing/creating: Whenever or wherever, I just love to draw. My brain is never asleep as I'm always thinking or daydreaming about something. I'm pretty much "lost in thought" except when I'm driving of course.

Writing/fan fiction: General Writing yes. I have an idea of my own story that I'm working on for fun. As for Fanfiction....I still do it from time to time.

[Kevin the Geek]

Sports: I'm not really into sports.

Reading: I don't read a lot, but I do enjoy reading R.L. Stine's thrillers, like "The Boyfriend".

Comics/manga: Around 2001 - 2003, I used to collect comics, mainly Spider-Man and Captain America. Over time, I lost interest in collecting comics. However, I'm proud that I own the entire "Secret Wars" mini-series.

Movies: My favorite genres of movies would have to be Sci-Fi (Mainly Godzilla movies, 50's and 60's monster movies, and some newer Sci-Fi movies like Independence Day and Dragon Wars), comedy, and animated movies like Monsters, Inc., Shrek, TMNT, and The Iron Giant. I rarely see movies in theaters these days (The last movie that I saw in a theater was TMNT.), but I do rent some movies from Netflix.

Television: Except for Gurren Laggan,TMNT: Back to the Sewer, Digimon Data Squad, Bleach, Full Metal Alchemist, Code Geass, and Moribito, I don't really watch that much tv. Most of the stuff that I watch is on DVD.

Anime: I'm not an otaku, but I do enjoy some anime series. Some of my favorite series include Dragon Ball Z, Wedding Peach, Digimon, Medabots, Legend of the Mystical Ninja, and Street Fighter II V.

Wrestling: I'm not really into wrestling.

Music: I like most kinds of music. Some of the genres that I enjoy are rap, rock, 80's pop, and dance/electronic.

Video games: I don't play video games as often as I used to, but I still play my PS2, when I feel like playing video games.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I don't exercise a lot these days, but I guess I need to lose some weight.

Artist/drawing/creating: I'm not really good at drawing.

Writing/fanfiction: I don't like to write, but I've read some fan fiction, in the past.

[mookie75]

Sports: I generally don't watch a lot of sports. Sure, I might tune in as a season is drawing to a close -- especially if a local team is in the playoffs -- but I don't keep track throughout the entire season. If I had to choose a favorite sport, I suppose it would be baseball.

Reading: My reading comes and goes in cycles. There will be times when I'm reading a book every couple weeks, and then there are other times when it'll take me a month or two to get through one. I'm currently in the latter of those two scenarios. :p

Comics/manga: I started reading Marvel Comics when I was in college. I stuck with that habit for 5 years or so, before I gave it up cold turkey because (at the time) I didn't have the money to be buying dozens of comics every month. I have the money now...but at this point I'm so far behind that I don't want to go to the effort of catching up on all the story lines again.

Movies: I think I have a respectable dvd collection, although I'm sure the collections of some people here would probably put it to shame. In an average year, I probably see around a dozen movies in the theater.

Television: I really don't watch much television. I've been watching Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles this year, and sometimes I watch Ugly Betty, but beyond that I don't see much other than a little bit of Letterman here and there.

Anime: I believe Pokemon is the closest I've come to watching anime....and we all know that isn't considered anime by most people. ;)

Wrestling: I haven't watched wrestling since Junior High or so. Is the WWF still around? (Just kidding....I know they aren't.)

Music: I'm annoyingly mainstream in my musical tastes. All those songs that most of you hate and probably think are played too often? Yeah, some of my favorites are probably in there. Also, if you scrolled through my iPod, you'd probably think I was stuck in the 1990s as well....

Video games: I've been a gamer for many years. We have every generation of Nintendo console in this apartment, Game Boys, GBAs, DSs, two PCs, a PS1 and a PS2... I stick mostly to the Nintendo stuff, but it's a rare day that goes by without me playing a game on something.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I do weight training and cardio three days a week. I'm not in desperate need of losing weight (6'4" and around 160 pounds), nor am I looking to seriously bulk up, but it seems like a good thing to do just for the sake of staying in shape.

Artist/drawing/creating: I wish I had some talent here, but I really don't. I can draw something from a picture without tracing it, but I'm not very good at taking an image in my mind and making it real on paper.

Writing/fanfiction: I used to have dreams of writing at least one novel, but that has faded over the years and now I rarely manage to muster up the passion to write anything at all. A friend of mine and I recently started up a little "writing program" in which we write short stories and send them to each other, so that at least got me producing something, but don't expect to see me taking up three shelves at the local Barnes & Noble anytime soon. :p

[James Bester]

Sports: I used to be really into baseball when I was a kid, but I ended up getting extremely bored with it when I got into high school. Now I sometimes play football and keep up with college football religiously every weekend.

Reading: For the past several years, I've only read the Scriptures.

Comics/manga: I read the first couple volumes of Naruto and Bleach back in Sophomore year and that's about it.

Movies: Definitely into thrillers and comedies. Action movies like Aliens, The Dark Knight, and Terminator make the top of my list. As far as comedy goes, I'm into more stupid movies like Talladega Nights, Dumb and Dumber, Billy Madison, and the ATHF movie.


Television: TV kinda sucks nowadays. I might watch some reruns of shows like Seinfeld, The Office, King of the Hill, ATHF, or Family Guy, but aside from that, not too much. And of course I tune into Sport Center for some background noise while I study.

Anime: I'm mainly into the classic action anime from CN and Adult Swim like DBZ, Big O, Rurouni Kenshin, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Full Metal Alchemist.

Wrestling: I catch RAW and TNA iMPACT! once in awhile, but I never catch all four wrestling programs of the week like I used to. I love watching great wrestling matches and compelling storylines, but you just can't find any of that these days. So much of the programming has become repetitive and childish lately.

Music: I love music. I'm into a variety of different genres like ska, celtic rock, hard rock, and power and progressive metal. Favorite bands are Kamelot, Disturbed, Symphony X, Streetlight Manifesto, Flogging Molly, and Dropkick Murphy's. Luckily, I've gotten the chance to see Kamelot and Streetlight play live.

Videogames: This used to be a huge passion of mine, but ever since College started up, I've been playing them less and less each month.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Haha I try, but I'd say I'm about average as far as my shape goes:sweat:

Artist/drawing/creating: I wrote a bunch of comics with stick figures along with my neighbors in middle school....and that's it.

Writing/fanfiction: I've always loved writing, and I really want to get the chance to write a novel someday. Even when I'm just sitting at home doing College work, I always have these new ideas floating in my head for a new story to create. I've vowed that someday I'll write something big.

[Tenku]

Sports: Oh, I love sports! I normally follow NCAA and NFL. Basketball, I only watch the NBA, and even then I always watch the playoffs. Baseball ain't my thing.

Reading: I normally read WH40K books, mainly Gaunt's Ghosts, Ultramarines, or the Space Wolves. Maybe the odd Inquisitor or Guard books. Or when I have the time.

Comics/manga: I don't think I've touched a manga in 3 years. I just got lazy about it. Comics on the other hand, I've discovered Deadpool after a friend recommended me Deadpool and Cable. Lovable spaz, he is.

Movies: If it contains any sort of something blowing up, I'll watch. Or at least remotely interesting to me.

Television: I barely watch TV, now that I think about it. Only thing I watch is Family Matters, George Lopez, and Fresh Prince on Nick at Nite. Or maybe something with Mario Lopez in it. (Oh ho ho...)

Anime: Been watching it as long as I can remember, but I always stay away from the ones with huge fandoms. I'm more of a old-school type of person.

Wrestling: Well, haven't watched since The Rock left.

Music: Barely listen to mainstream radio. I'm more into Nu Jazz or Instrumentals, like say Nujabes, Fat Jon, DJ Shadow... or maybe Symphonic-influenced music from Hybrid. Trance and Trip-hop too. Ah, and game music!

Videogames: My first game was Tetris for the Gameboy. Pretty much have every system from the NES to now, except the 360 and PS3; still working on that. LOVE Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid, DDR... personally, my favorite genres are fighting games and platformers, with the occasional puzzle here and there.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I play DDR at least once a day, depending on my mood for about an hour and a half; been doing that for 5 years or so. I've managed to shed 15 pounds in a month. My eating habits though... for such a little person, I eat like a linebacker.

Artist/drawing/creating: I can draw, well, doodle, but other than that, when I TRY to draw something, it always doesn't come out right. Drawing is a different beast in terms of patience.

Writing/fanfiction: Eh, I'm just writing for fun on a trilogy inspired from me playing Metal Gear so much...

[Harvey Two Face]

Sports: I like to watch the Soccer occasionally and Rugby League (Australia) that's about it.

Reading: I try to read whenever I can, currently reading Romulus My Father for school work, but most of the time I like to read fiction or stuff on science.

Comics/manga: Current comics that I'm reading are Teen Titans, also some freebies I get from the comic store.

Movies: Generally watch about anything, but preferably action, sci-fi, thriller.

Television: Scrubs! Malcolm in the Middle, Stargate SG-1, Teen Titans, B:TAS, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Johnny Bravo, Samurai Jack, South Park, Family Guy.

Anime: Neon Genesis Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop.

Wrestling: Sometimes watch it for a laugh or two.

Music: Just about anything you can think of.

Videogames: Half-Life 2, CS Source, C&C3, Supreme Commander, Medieval 2, Super Smash Bro's Brawl, Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I do Hapkido 3 hours a week, and occasionally try to jog to keep fit.

Artist/drawing/creating: I can draw fairly well but can never find the time to do it.

Writing/fanfiction: None what so ever.

[buttah]

Sports: Don't enjoy watching, never have and I don't think I ever will just so boring too me. If I do watch it's only big championship games, love playing though I've gone through different phases and currently I play football the most

Reading: I used to read a lot, haven't done too much lately but I'm not against it, if I find something new to read I'll most def read it but nothing for now

Comics/manga: Got into comics in the 6th grade kinda stopped reading in the 8th but I occassionally pic up a trade, generally Marvel and DC stuff

Movies: Don't see movies in theaters too often but when I do it's generally action, thriller or horror.

Television: Don't watch too much tv but it's pretty 50/50 when it comes to live action and cartoons

Anime: I'm not sure how to describe myself when it comes to this. I don't watch as much anime as a lot of anime fans but I watch more than the average person I guess, I kinda trail off on a lot of them and never finish them though. Currently watching Gundam 00 though

Wrestling: Loved it when I was 3 till I found out it was fake at 5 and I never watched it again

Music: I listen to everything except country but I'm not gonna say it's a bad genre. I think there's good in every genre and I try my best to listen to all of them. I think I mostly listen to mostly mainstream stuff though

Videogames: Love gaming, I'd probably describe myself as a hardcore gamer and I generally keep up on gaming info everyday. Currently have a Wii and saving up for a 360, kinda hard though as I always spend my money...oh well.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I try to work out of do some physical activity everyday, jog, situps, list weights, squats..a lot of stuff but sometimes I get lazy and slack off. I think I'm addicted to it.

Artist/drawing/creating: I draw all the time, I'm pretty good at it and I'm saying this with no ego involved, people always tell me I'm a good artist. Guess I should go into a career where I use that talent.

Writing/fanfiction: When I was younger I used to read fanfics all the time and I tried writing throughout the years but I never ended up finishing anything I've written then I just gave up I guess. It's not really for me.

[Road to Gotham]

Sports: I like to watch College and NFL Football. Plus NHL during the Playoffs.

Reading: I read Mystery and Western Novels.

Comics/manga: I read mostly DC. Batman and JSA. Also Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck.

[FireStarterLE]

Sports: played baseball when i was about 7. Played middle school football in the 8th grade, that was about 8-9 years ago and the last sport I played

Reading: I own 1-2 real books, never read any of them. Reading isn't my thing

Comics/manga: Use to read comics and I read a bit of manga every so often.

Movies: Usually watch 1-2 every week or so. And I go to the theaters once about every 2 months.

Television: Only shows I watch for fun are: 24, Fringe, Lost, Heroes, and Mythbusters. Everything else I watch is really just for passing the time

Anime: Since this is really my only hobby it takes up most of my time. TV anime is only Sci-Fi stuff and then Bleach/Moribito/Code Geass on adult swim.

Wrestling: Back when there were 3 brands I really liked it. But once WWE took over mainstream TV wrestling I stopped completely.

Music: Not a lot. I do listen to things I have on my computer and the radio every so often.

Videogames: When there's a fun game out that I like I'll play, but I'm not an everyday gamer anymore.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Try to jog and bike but I can't make myself get up and actually do it in a continuous fashion.

Artist/drawing/creating: pretty much same as books: non-existent

Writing/fanfiction: see above ^

[Dub C]

Sports: Love watching & playing it. Especially (American) football.

Reading: I've never been too avid a reader. I admit to being a daydreamer, so unless its a subject I'm really interested in, my mind tends to wander. Plus being a slow reader kinda discouraged me when I was younger.

Comics/manga: I mainly read manga translations & comics from Udon Comics (Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, etc) I would like to invest into some manga, but it costs too much for me right now!

Movies: Don't watch 'em that often. And when I do, it's usually on TV for free. I only go to theatres when my work buds feel like going out on the weekend.

Television: I don't watch as much as I used too, but I still probably watch too much. You'll mostly catch me watching the ESPNs, cartoons, and a bunch of old school shows/sitcoms. 24, Heroes, & House of Payne are the only new programming I watch regularly.

Anime: Rarely watch anything that doesn't already come on TV. So I'm nowhere near an okatu or anything of the sort

Wrestling: Used to watching in college during the heyday of Stone Cold, The Rock, and all that. ('99-'02) Those Thursday nights were fun, chillin' with the guys watching that male soap opera, haha!

Music: Prefer Jazz, but I'll listen to anything outside of country & Heavy Metal

Videogames: Not as much as I used to but I still play 'em. Currently own a Dreamcast, PS2, GBA, & Wii. Next new game I plan to get, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I try to hit the gym at least 2-3 a week. I also wanna restart my regement of 50 situps & pushups a day.

Artist/drawing/creating: I wanna start draw again soon. I'd say I'm decent, but I definately want to start practicing again.

Writing/fanfiction: Thankfully the few that I have read were very good, but I don't make a habit of reading them. As for writing, I seriously want to write something but I can't seem to get out of the planning stage! :(

[Tapout]

Sports: Mixed martial arts. Its really the only thing that's kept me from shooting myself in the head over the last three years. I can't train anymore due to my job, but being able to watch is enough. For now. Also a pretty big baseball fan, and was quite upset when the D'backs crapped the bed down the stretch.

Reading: I mostly stick to my dopey Fantasy novels, but I'll take suggestions from message boards sometimes.

Comics/manga: I would love to get into both, but I have some weird thing that if I can't get into something from the beginning I won't start. I'm slowly but surely learning about trade paperbacks so maybe I'll start getting into them more.

Movies: Not as big on movies as I used to be. Now I stick mostly to the comic book franchises, and anything by Kevin Smith, Rob Zombie, or Quentin Tarantino.

Television: Pretty much done with TV, unless sports on TV counts.

Anime: Used to love it, but now I really just don't have time.

Wrestling: Between the current state of the business (i.e. garbage) and my MMA obsession I can't be bothered anymore. When I'm home I'll watch WWE or TNA, but if I'm out or working it doesn't bother me anymore if I miss it.

Music: I have maybe 10 or so bands that I got into during high school and still enjoy, but I'm not big enough to really get into anything now.

Videogames: World of Warcraft. I usually stick to that instead of consoles.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Used to train jiu jitsu/kickboxing, but had to quit due to getting a job with conflicting schedules. Luckily I keep active enough doing my job that I've managed to keep most of the weight I lost during training off.

Artist/drawing/creating/Writing/fanfiction: I do not have a single creative bone in my body.

[PC!]

Sports: I'm not a huge fan of common sports like baseball and football. Gimme an uncommon game like dodgeball or team pinball any day.

Reading: I love reading novels. I try to read a chapter or two every day. Magazines are cool, too.

Comics/manga: I'm an avid comic collector. Used to be a huge manga fan, but I'd much prefer watching the characters in motion than flipping through still images.

Movies: Don't watch nearly as many movies as I used to, but when I do, I'm quite partial to action and comedy movies.

Television: Don't watch a lot of TV, either, but when I do, it's usually cartoons. Most of the stuff on local TV is boring to me.

Anime: Love several anime series, but not a great deal.

Wrestling: Never liked it.

Music: Pretty much anything, but I'm quite partial to instrumentals and soundtracks.

Video games: Love 'em. Platformers are my personal fave.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I've tried to get a routine going, but I don't stick to it very loyally. I'm just glad I'm not overweight.

Artist/drawing/creating: I love drawing, though I'm not the best artist in the world. Something about creating something out of nothing just fascinates me.

Writing/fan fiction: Not much for fan fiction, but writing is my absolute favorite hobby. I love creating characters and situations.

Sports: I don't currently play any sports, though I've considered playing on my uni's rugby squad (was recruited this year, but haven't been to any games or practices) and I used to run cross-country in high school as well as ride horses almost weekly. As far as watching sports, I like (American) football, baseball, and hockey. I used to be really into horse racing as well, but I haven't been following it very closely as of late.

Reading: I love to read. I work at a library, so I'm around books every day and it's great. I haven't been doing much recreational reading since the semester started, but I have a few novels I'm working on getting through. Believe it or not, I'm actually more of a non-fiction fan, so I really don't mind doing reading for classes as long as it's interesting.

Comics/manga: I haven't been reading as many of these lately, but I own several manga series and a few DC graphic novels. Would love to get into the latter more in-depth, but I think I'd be a little overwhelmed by the amount that's out there.

Movies: I go to a few films a year and I definitely have my favorites, but I probably am not as into movies as most other people are. I do have a sizeable DVD collection, though.

Television: I haven't watched much TV since I started high school (I'm in college now), but I usually put cartoons on when I'm doing work on my laptop for the background noise (what Stephen King calls "Ear TV").

Anime: I used to be really obsessive about anime, but I've sort of lost interest in the last few years. I still have my favorites on DVD, and I check out new series when I can. I just don't invest as much time into it as I used to.

Wrestling: Not a fan.

Music: I love music and would love to start a band eventually (I play guitar, though not particularly well). My favorite genres are metal, new wave, punk, '70s glam, but I like a little bit of pretty much everything. The only type of music I really don't like is country (not that it's terrible, but I never could get into it). I'm definitely more of an old-school rock fan and not as into the new stuff, though most of it is decent, if generic.

Videogames: I'm not a big gamer, but I have a few consoles (original Nintendo, PS2, DS, hopefully a Wii soon). Would like to have more time to play, but I just don't have it right now.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I used to be almost allergic to exercise, but I've gotten much better as of late. I go to the gym six times a week, including cardio and weight training, and I try to watch what I eat during the workweek.

Artist/drawing/creating: I have decent drawing and painting talent, but my ability has hit a plateau in the past few years Yet another skill I'd like to improve, but I lack time to do so.

Writing/fanfiction: I am a good writer (or so I've been told), but I don't write a lot of fiction, and I write absolutely no fanfiction- it just doesn't interest me. I've considered writing a novel, but I think that's something that- unless you're hell-bent on making writing your career- you can't really force.

[Marvin Tikvah]

Sports: I used to play soccer and practice karate when I was younger. I wish I could get back into doing either of them. For the major leagues, I usually only watch playoffs to see if my home team makes it to the top. Unfortunately, that's rarely the case.

Reading: I love reading, but my taste is so picky and it usually takes me a great while before getting into a good story. I wish I spent more time in a library, but the check-out times are way too short.

Comics/manga: Usually I wait for anthologies of comic books to be published, since collecting and subscribing seems more costly to me than a nice, hardcover collection. I've read some manga, but the reverse reading irritates me and there's usually an animated adaptation anyway.

Movies: My mom loves to rent DVDs on a weekly basis, so I would regularly check her rentals for anything that interest me before I moved away. I don't got to theatres very often, unless someone is willing to pay for my ticket. My friend is also a huge movie buff so I often borrowed from his collection.

Television: My viewing has fallen significantly since 2 years ago, but I still watch too much TV. I mainly watch Chowder, Flapjack, Spongebob, and reruns of old sitcoms and shows from my childhood. I also watch CNN in the mornings and History specials on Sunday. I also enjoy adult swim and Fox Sundays.

Anime: I watch some series online based on what looks interesting. Anime on TV seems to be dead or uninteresting to me, but I do look out for DVD releases of series I used to watch, though I rarely buy them.

Wrestling: I am a huge wrestling fan, having only taken a break between early 2002 and late 2003. There's a special art involved in wrestling that really seperates it from other forms of entertainment. I'm usually open to watching all promotions, but I stopped watching TNA do to how horribly mismanged it has become.

Music: Not really my thing. I have no musical taste whatsoever. My folder of music is filled with soundtracks from movies, shows and video games, mixed with some tracks from The Doors, Credence Clearwater revival, and singles from popular artists.

Videogames: NProbably my biggest hobby. I have nearly a dozen consoles dating back to the NES era, but the older cartridges have a difficult time starting up. Unfortunately, since I moved to college, and I have younger brothers who share the love of games, I had to leave my systems behind, taking only my DS and PSP with me, and about 8 games.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: You don't know how many times I've been meaning to get into this. However, even when I was younger and more fit, I could never gain the physique I wanted. I don't care about that anymore though, I just want to stay active, which is why I do a lot of walking to compensate for it.

Artist/drawing/creating: Drawing is my passion, and since I really want to enter the animation industry, it has become my focus. I hold some really high goals for it, and I draw whenever I feel like trying new concepts or testing my own skill. It greatly annoys me when people tell me I'm a good artist, since I'm always looking to improve, not to be told that it's good enough to impress them.

Writing/fanfiction: Yeah I need to work on this too. i've got some backstories for created characters in mind, but they need to be expanded upon.

[asphaltviking64]

Sports:Sometimes. I have a few favorite teams that I occasionally follow, mainly Knicks (even though they're terrible), Rangers, and Giants. I do play a few games such as fencing and sometimes rock climbing.

Reading: I read what ever I can, and I do like fiction, though I need some suggestions to read before I can start to delve into the series. Then again, I do sometimes read without suggestions like some classics (Poe I read constantly) Most of the stuff that I read are biographies or plays (Ionesco, Arthur Miller, Shakespeare, etc)

Comics/manga: My school actually has alot of manga and comics in their library, so I constantly read FMA, Bleach, and Death Note, even if I read them alot. My favorite series right now is D. Gray-Man because the atmosphere and the mood is so memorable and beautiful.The characters are fun and in general its one of the best manga I've read in a long time. I'm also starting to read Buffy and Angel comics since my friends introduced me to the series.

Movies: I made a lot of shorts at my camp and plan to be a film maker when I'm older, so I tend to watch many movies. I have no favorite specified genre, though black and white mysteries are interesting as well as westerns. Though screwball comedies like 1941 and Caddyshack also appeal to me.

Television: I follow alot of shows on TV, though they're mostly all just sitcoms and cartoons or old shows. I've started to get into the Buffyverse as I stated, but I love action cartoons like the DCAU, or any superhero property.

Anime: Don't get me started. Please don't get me started. :D

Wrestling: Wrestling? Really? Really?

Music: I prefer classical music or broadway showtunes. On my itunes list I have alot of showtunes and broadway like Jekyll and Hyde or Sweeny Todd. I also like some electronic music and J-Pop, though mostly from Opening and endings of shows, as they're the easiest to listen to on the web.

Videogames: Don't have time for videogames, and I can't get my internet connection on my Wii to work. Whenever I do have the time I play my Wii games like Super Mario Galaxy or Twilight Princess over and over again. I usually play my games during breaks.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I've been meaning to get in shape, but homework and other activities has been keeping me from working out and been keeping me busy.

Artist/drawing/creating: I'm starting to paint and draw ideas and characters for my movie ideas. I have alot of ideas bursting out I just need to learn how to express them as my drawing skills are terrible. That's why I make movies out of my ideas as they're the only way I can express my ideas in live action.

Writing/fanfiction: I love writing scripts for short movies and ideas that I have for my characters. I plan on producing them and later make serials based on them on the Web or hopefully, TV, though I need to develop my skills alot with my ideas.

[defunctzombie]

Sports: I am the stuff at DDR, does that count? :p

Reading: I usually stick to stuff with pictures (see below), but I always try to read source material for the movies and comics I like.

Comics/manga: The only US comic I read is Batman, but I read shojo (young women) manga. I plan on getting into a new series whenever I get money.

Movies: Love them. I like just about everything except for adult, girly romance (odd considering I like those kind of comics), and political thriller types.

Television: I watch Star Trek stuff, Family Guy, and other action or comedies.

Anime: Trinity Blood is the only series I watch. I prefer the movie format. Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli are what I have the most of.

Wrestling: Used to watch it all the time, but I grew out of it I guess.

Music: Usually nineties rock/grunge and nowadays alternative. Green Day, 30 Seconds to Mars, MCR, Offspring, Alice in Chains, and the like even though I don't have too many cds/mp3s.

Videogames: Me love these. :D DDR I already mentioned, but I like Final Fantasy, Zelda, Resident Evil, Soul Blade/Soul Calibur, Mortal Kombat, and others.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: Tried it, but quit going. Too busy or too embarrassed.

Artist/drawing/creating: I like to doodle, but I really am not good enough to make a career out of it.

Writing/fanfiction: I started several novels in my free hschool time, but never finished them I write some damn good fanfiction in my head, though, so I'd bet that if I ever wrote it down people would love it. ;)

[Daxdiv]

Sports: I don't play much sports, as for watching them, I'll be more into them if I am sitting in the stands rather than watching it on the TV

Reading: Unless it is required by my class, I rarely read for leisure.

Comics/manga: Mostly manga, stuff that printed by Shonen Jump Magazine, and other Viz production rarely read American comics

Movies: I like watching movies on both DVDs and the Theaters. I rarely go to theaters as it is.

Television: I rarely watch TV now with School and work piling up on me. Usually I just catch what on CN, and Nick.

Anime: Depends, I took a year off of taking chances with new anime, but after a while I am starting to get back into some of it. Just trying to wean out some.

Wrestling: I'm on and off when watching this. Currently I am watching WWE, and some small circuit stuff.

Music: Mostly rock, metal, country, jazz, techno, disco and some Video Game Music. Not a big fan of some mainstream hip hop, rap, R&B, if I do like them, it songs that I like. The only rapper I enjoy is Eminem, because he actually raps about real issue.

Videogames: I own a Wii, DS, PS2, and Xbox 360. Play them non-stop when I get the chance. Wanna know what console I play on the most this is a hint

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I'm on and off again with this again, I mostly use what we have around the house, and some time, not sure if this counts, but I do try to use some of the exercises from Wii Fit

Artist/drawing/creating: I love to draw and create, I am sort of suck at it, but I am improving.

Writing/fanfiction: I love to write some short stories for myself, and keep them to myself.

[JTurner954]

Sports: I would rather play sports than watch it. But from time to time, I'll watch football from time to time, but I'm really getting into MMA and The Ultimate Fighter. I wish I had the drive and conditioning that some of these guys have.

Reading: I'm almost done with Crossfire which deals with a woman with pyrokinesis. I also tend to read magazines like Esquire, Maxim, Men's Fitness, and Men's Health. I love reading.

Comics/manga: I'm collecting the Dragonball/Z manga, Case Closed, and Dr. Slump. I also have every issue of The Big O manga, COWA, and Sandland.

Movies: I rarely go to the movies anymore because of the rowdy crowds and low funds so I rent. Favorite movie of the year so far: Dark Knight Least favorite: The Ruins.

Television: Maury is funny for all the wrong reasons. I also watch The Daily Show, Late Night with Conan, The Soup, and South Park.

Anime: Gurren Lagann is the best anime of the year. When Sci Fi airs a new [to the channel] show, I'll watch it. Bleach gets my attention every Saturday and Naruto on Toonami Jetstream. I'm also enjoying Funimation's service on Youtube. I currently own every DVD of Dragonball/Z/GT, and Big O. Detective Conan: Case Closed, Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, and Death Note are next on my list.

Wrestling: I loved it more when I was younger (I have just about every WWF PPV from 1993-2003 on VHS). By the time I trained to be a wrestler, my loved decreased for the genre. I still watch it, but I don't enjoy it as much as I use to (If you dig a little bit, you'll see how hard I took it when they changed the name to WWE).

Music: I listen to just about everything except rap, country, and techno. I prefer classic rock.

Videogames: I love playing classic games like Mario and Ninja Gaiden. Prior to typing this, I was playing Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. I own a PS2 but if my current lifestyle doesn't change for the better, I'll never be able to buy another console. I love videogames at the same level I love reading.

Exercising/Weight training/keeping fit: I really, really want to excerise more but I constantly feel tired. I bought my first MP3 player a month ago and purchased an arm band for it today. I have protein powder which I should drink more often and take Fish Oil daily. I need will power.

Artist/drawing/creating: If I had the technology, I would love to take a crack at putting the Faulconer themes into the first 52 episodes of Dragonball Z. I have many ideas floating in my head and I have the tracks available [including ones not on CD].

Writing/fanfiction: When it comes to writing, I can ramble on and on. My best work requires me to stay up with little to no sleep. I avoid fanfiction like the plague. If it's not official, I don't read it. I wouldn't mind creating some AMV's though.
