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.
Jesus, dude. He said a hobby. The latter is an organized sport, and the former only isn't because you don't generally kayak against other people.

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.
I teach a bear punchin' class down at the local creek. You gotta sign a release before we go though, and these bears are gettin a touch uptight and ornery from all the punchin'. But if your punchin' arms game then let's punch us some punchin' bears.

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! Some of the best comedians made up some of their best material after some sort of turmoil. Rodney Dangerfield had a pretty sad life based on what I remember from a documentary I saw a few weeks after he died.

Other than that...I don't know what the art is called but basically, you use the skeleton of animals and set them up in a sort of natural pose. I saw it in an episode of Oddities...Anyway, just grab yourself some beetles (not sure it there's a specific breed) and they'll clear the flesh off of the bones. It's cleaner and, doesn't produce the same odor as boiling the bones. You can also sell said skeletons for pretty good money if you know the right people.

Start making genetically engineered monsters in your basement and start a whole new circle of anime fights.

It's called "cometing". Basically, you get in a plane, douse yourself in gasoline, light yourself on fire, and hurl yourself out of the plane. Generally your target on the ground is supposed to be a kindergarten or a Chuck-e-Cheese, but in your situation I'd try and land in your ex's front yard.

Two words...Fight Club
Come on man, first rule. Geez, now we gotta take your balls.

OT: Maybe make your own longbow and take up archery. I was planning on doing that during the summer but I am horribly lazy. Or maybe blacksmithing.
Hold up! We save the ball chopping for people who want to talk about project mayhem. Fight club is fight club, while the first two rules are don't talk about it we don't actually do anything if someone does. It is hard to build a secret organization bent anarchy and destruction of the "man" if no one talks about it.

If you came to the meeting more often you would know this shit, jeesh

OT--------------------------------OT

Also archery and blacksmithing are both very badass hobbies. I vote for those. Nothing badass can be done while in class.... unless of course you are taking badass classes, though I figure if you were you wouldn't be asking for badass advice.

I thought rule one of Project Mayhem was don't ask questions about Project Mayhem. Maybe I need to read it again or watch the movie.

Painting Miniatures. 1. it takes time to do it well (essential to a hobby) 2. Women LOVE artists. 3. It is a pretty cheap hobby.

http://www.myspace.com/bluntman1138/photos#!/bluntman1138/photos/albums/stuff/950559

I know no one uses Myspace anymore, but this is the only place i have some of my Pics of miniatures uploaded to. (Need to add them to another place) And i am not the best of painters and consider myself ABOVE novice. But it is fun, satisifying, and the chicks , as i said, love an artist.

PS. I used to paint in class in High School when nothing was going on.

Shooting Guns is always fun, and if you do it right its a hobby. Get some cheap guns that are fun to shoot and cheap like an AK-47 or and mosin nagant, or if you want a pistol Taurus and High-point make good cheap guns. Then buy bulk ammo and go to the range. Guns are a great investment and hardly ever loose value and its something that can really get into. I only advise you get a gun were ammo is cheap because that what costs you money.

Personally I'd say go with archery, and be able to fire multiple arrows at once (though I have bias given I'm working on that myself right now ^^). Only warning I'd give is be careful with how you learn to fire it, very easy to rip up your forearms and fingers.

Hey, you could even do it in class if you are *really* badass.
