I need a bad ass hobby.

[Wolf-AUS]

All these people have stupid ideas, save for jousting which is a bit impractical together into.

I suggest whitewater kayaking. Rafting is good too, but requires a team. Look around for a whiewater stadium which might be a bit hard to find, but there should be some around somewhere, learn the basics and most importantly how to roll back up, once you can roll, you can try anything. Before you know it you'll be surfing and cartwheeling with the best.

Ice hockey is also acceptable.

Two words...Fight Club

Come on man, first rule. Geez, now we gotta take your balls.

Thank god i'm a woman

Learning to knife fight, if that isn't a badass hobby I don't know what is.

Learn how to play Elephant Polo.... No, I'm not making it up. Elephant Polo is real.... yes, it is.

Stop looking at me like that. It really is.

Spoiler

Yes.....really, there is

Why the fuck did you open the second spoiler? Did you expect Spiderman or ponies to be hidden inside? Elephant Polo really does exist.

Google the shit out of it if you want

I learned how unicycle over the summer, which is really fun.

Warhammer Fantasy: Risk+ Lord of the Rings

I sugest go with High Elves (if you've seen lord of the Rings, you get it, Dwarves (Every Dwarf in every fantasy setting), empire (most well rounded army in the game), Ogres (big things that like to beat the crap out of things) or Brettnia (knights, and knights, and more knights).

 

[FrostyRoskies]

I suggest whittling. It is the best thing ever. Makes your hands super calloused after a few years. I have old man hands, and awesome looking wood. Sculptures.

 

[Spydercake]

Ive been baking for the past five years.
Not that badass you say?
Not only can i make shit that will blow your mind...
It gets all the chicks as well.

Magic the Gathering.

On Lions.

Cooking! A man can be badass but a man's gotta eat!

I believe you, but I was expecting a video of elephant polo in your second spoiler....

OT: You want to do something in class that's bad-ass?
Have you tried organising your entire class to break out in song and dance at a certain time and confuse the fuck out of your teacher?

 

[TheScientificIssole]

You should weave...KEVLAR!
That's pretty badass.

 

[Talo_AML]

Tabletop wargaming. Warhammer 40k is particularly good.

Sewing! you can make awesome stuff for desert bus!

Ninja!

But really, I started sewing and now I've got an online business well on it's way to being able to support me. I'm 2 years in. By my calculations in another two years I'll be able to quit my job and just do this for a living.

I just started up again like five days ago, I need to make some patterns for stuff(read awesome plushies), 'cause I'm not too bad at it, and it's fun!

Do you need a bad-ass hobby, or a bad ass-hobby? The difference is subtle but is vitally important to what I end up suggesting.

Well, I doubt he wouldn't want a GOOD ass-hobby.

Check out our shop. I do the sewing. My girlfriend does the buttons, key chains, and patches.

Parkour!
There's probably better videos...but you get the drift

 

[Dr Snakeman]

Well, I hate to break it to you, but there is nothing badass you can do in class. I mean, I guess you could draw or write poetry, and some people might consider that fun, but there is no badassery to it.

Extracurricularly speaking, however... I've just recently discovered an incredibly fun pastime at my university: swing dance!

Now, before you balk at the idea, hear me out. Learn to dance well, and you will be able to be accurately described as "suave". Suavity is a badass quality.

Secondly, chicks. I almost guarantee you that there will be a gender ratio of, like, 1.5:1. The ladies always outnumber gentlemen because too few men attempt to learn the finer arts of manliness. There's going to be a bunch of at-least-moderately-attractive women just standing around, waiting to be asked to dance. That's just awesome.

Lastly, check this out. I dare you to watch it and tell me that swing isn't cool.

Sewing/knitting... Like a boss.

How about sewing/knitting while pimp-slaping not 1, not 2, but 5 honey badgers while riding a twin-headed velocioraptor(spelling?) and feeding an army of dragons at the same time on Chuck Norris' foot.....Like. A. Boss.

 

[Charli]

I draw. Bitches love drawing... At least the ones who can't seem to stop looking over my shoulder in a class always seemed to...

 

[Char-Nobyl]

Just got out of a rough relationship with a girl and looking for something to entertain my time. Something that would just be fucking awesome to do. Any suggestions?

EDIT: Also something I could do in class is preferable, I have an easy semester.

Stand up comedy! It's easy just carry a notepad and pen around with you at all times, Write down every weird thought you have and when you have days off go to comedy open mics and make people poop their pants. It's great.

This is actually a pretty good idea, especially if the aforementioned relationship is something that can be exaggerated for comedic effect and used in routines. Most successful comedians have at least a few bits about crappy relationships, and you have the advantage of it actually being true!

Free running (not the videos earlier, I can't do parkour for shit, but I know that's too flippy and there's too many unneeded movements) or balisong flipping. You can't look more badass than a man who knows how to twirl a knife around his fingers.
