I would suggest you sit down in a quiet room and think about what you like to do and how that pertains to a hobby you would enjoy. No one is going to be able to tell you what hobby is right for you because, well, they aren't you. You started a similar thread like this on another forum and seem to do it so you can respond negatively and shoot down all the suggestions. Honestly, no one can dictate your likes for you. I'm not gonna suggest a hobby for you since you will probably flame it anyway. Just give it some thought. Research hobbies on the net. Go to the library. Ask people that know you personally. That's really all the advice we can give you.

You got access to a video camera? One lyin around the house or one you can borrow?
[edit] You haven't replyed yet and I have to get some sleep so I'm gonna jump in here anyway even though I said I wouldn't.
Take a video camera and combine all your interests into one. Find a tape lyin around the house you can use and tape your back yard wrestling. Combine it with scenes of pro wrestling taped from the tv, cars you like, snips from movies, and ad a Metalica sound track to it. Make your own little independant films about the things that interest you. If you have editing software on your computer all the better. If not, edit in camera. Animate stuff around the house, like action figures or edit a film of your pet singing a Metallica song. Heck, dress up in your best heavy metal attire and film yourself performing a Metallica song. Do the stuff on your own, alone if you like, so you don't feel self concious and can let yourself go. Show them off, or keep em to yourself.
If you don't have a video camera, use a regular one to take stills of those things you like. Browse the web for unusual stuff and combine it into original pieces of art in Photoshop. I read that you dabble in photoshop so it would be a natural for you. Put them into a file on your computer for veiwing or print them out and hang them on the wall. Put them up on the web in a gallery on your own website. Make different catagories that interest you. Geocities has free web space and a reallly good, easy to use page builder to make your site. Combine wrestling images with racecars and photos of Metallica. Make your own original Metallica album covers. Take pics of your family and recombine them with wrestling images and the like. Put your head onto your favorite wrestler's body. Find a pic of someone you don't like from school in a yearbook and express your anger with them in Photoshop. Do the same with people you like. Put yourself behind the drivers seat of a Zip. The possibilities are only limited by your imagination and it costs next to nothing. You could even develope the hobby as time goes by and actually make money from it one day. You don't have to be able to draw to create art these days.
That's the key really. Develope your imagination. It unlocks doors that you don't expect.

Wow! Those are great ideas man...I can probably borrow a video cam from a friend with a promise that if i broke it I'd replace it with a cherry on top.

Hmm..a movie may be a fun idea...My friend is good @ video editing & all he uses is a VCR & his camera...he mainly makes highlight videos for our backyard wrestling fed.

That friend friend wants to create a band but I have no musical talent...I could sing a few Metallica & Ozzy songs..The friend with this idea plays the bass guitar...We have a friend who can do drums..just need a electric guitar player

I'm actually pretty good at Paint Shop Pro & okay at Photoshop (how did i afford those programs...I didn't! [go figure...lol)

Also not bad at Go Live (nothing extraordinary..but can do some basic stuff) Don't have any samples....I never did never figure out what to put on a website....Anyone want a website?

I'm lookin at Micro RS4s now anyway.. So I can satisfy my need for some radio controlled speed anyway

Gotta get some sleep too

Thanx a bunch man
