Hobbies others might consider "Strange"

So, what's your "odd" hobbies? Mine's collecting Monster High dolls.

(If this post is in the wrong section, just say the word and I'll be on my way)

I follow criminal investigations and court cases online.

I play table-top RPGs.

I'm an abnormal psychologist. Meaning that I study abnormal psychology, and that I am a psychologist who is abnormal. Every day is a day of field work.

i like taking old antique audio recordings [such as 78 rpm records] and digitally updating their sound by removing noise, creating digitally extracted instrumental stereo panoramas out of monophonic, etc. i also like to modify the sound/arrangements of existing recordings.

I study self-sufficiency.

Not just the normal "can cook a meal and hold a job" kind of self-sufficiency, but the "grow and grind the grain for bread, raise and butcher the meat, build a barn from the ground up" type. I've been fascinated by it for as long as I can remember.

I'm self-taught, self-diagnosed, and self-treated. And I'm more knowledgable than many "trained" psychologists. That's what's abnormal.

Pen collecting
Not just sticking hundreds of random pens in a bucket, but having several fountain pens -- each that writes very well and I could do basic maintenance on it...
And several Japanese pencils -- it's split 50/50 down drafting and writing pencils -- though I can't draw at all.
It's VERY expensive to even add one pen or pencil to the collection -- pencils are typically 25 dollars each while pens are typically 300 each.

mine is staring at facebook and the ocassional wp forum page for hours on end waiting for something to change.

I'm a furry. To put it simply, I'm a fan of anthropomorphism. I have a anthro OC named Michael "Mike the cat" Anderson, and I draw a lot of furry art.
