I started doing Archery last year though it is not uncommon where I live. In rural Ohio a crazy amount of people bow hunt.

I make stuff out of duct tape.

And not the standard wallets, either (though I do make them as gifts for people), I've made Stephen Colbert, The Monarch, and Darth Vader.

I do a little parkour every now and then which isn't a very common thing where I live.

I've tried my hand at a bit of amateur voice acting, through a web site called Voice Acting Alliance. Though I started last fall, I have no works to present yet, but I'm getting close. I have gotten accepted into two projects so far, one which I just submitted my lines for the first episode last week, and another which the creator hasn't gotten to me yet since it has a LOT of characters.

Most of the projects available there are fandubs and radio plays. The first project I mentioned was a Fullmetal Alchemist fandub, which I got the part of a female extra. The second project was a fandub for the video game Fire Emblem. I actually got the parts of four characters out of six I auditioned for, so I'm interested to see how it turns out, lol.

I do want to audition more soon, but shit's getting serious in school right now and I don't want to get myself wrapped up into more I can handle.

Hmm. I practice contortion. Backbending mostly. It would be fair to say that this is a far from common thing around here.

Hey, I've made some ambigrams too, although they're not quite as animated as yours :p

I like to go for walks in graveyards and make notes of particularly interesting epitaphs. My favorite thus far:

"We have received our passports to life from the friendly hand of death."

I've only recently started mine, but...

Resin model-building. What's more, anime resin model building. I had my start playing Warhammer when I was younger, and this is my attempt at something on a larger scale.

THAT'S THE COOLEST HOBBY EVER!!! O_O

OT: I don't think I have any uncommon hobbies. I'm a very boring person.

I'm into this really new thing called gaming. Bad jokes aside, my weird hobby is writing. Very few people do that in my school (not by choice anyway)

I make mock drafts for the NFL and NBA. I've got about a dozen for this years NFL draft alone. The only people who ever see/hear about them are my friends/family, but it gives me something to do.

And this is why I prefer working with vector-drawing rather than bitmaps :) You get a lot more freedom to tweak the curves, and none of the chunky pixellation.

Nice stuff - I think the last one (quoted) is the best for readability. I've never been much good with gothic script.

My capcha has a fucking umlaut in it.

I stopped doing it now, but I used to count how many letters were in the words I had just said.
I think that crosses the border somewhat between hobby and OCD...
