Curse you, enter button.
Anyways, I'm curious, what do you do in your spare time?
I personally troll the forums, play Guitar and Piano, watch politics, help my friends with stuff they might need over Instant Messaging, and ocassionally my family and I will go out and play Tennis and go swimming.
What about you guys?

videogames

and spending yet another lonely saturday night

I Study Latin and Ancient Greek...

... the part of me that wants friends wishes I were joking.

Sleep, watch tv, roam the internet and watch movies.

videogames

and spending yet another lonely saturday night

I could've sworn I said besides video games =/

normally sleep, read books, go on forums, or do nothing and daydream.

-Play tennis with my girlfriend
-Go to local theatre (or just help out/hang out with local theater groups)
-Cook

Playing guitar, cello, piano, sax, bass and drums...
Going to the movies
sleep
and yelling at people in languages they don't and can't understand...
Here I'll show you
Te ovat ikävystyttäviä!!!!

Catch up on sleep! Haha no. Um music, movies, listen to podcasts.
Basicly just relax.

By the way my first post! xD

Congrats :D.
A little more to add:
Reading
Studying for tests
Rent movies
Oh, and when Ike hit us and we lost power for 1 day I was so bored I actually did 500 push-ups.
I had been reading for 6 hours :D.

I do some archery from time to time.

Still hitting my arms with the bowstring.

I practice a few different martial arts, I'm an avid reader, I try to go hiking when I have extra time, and of course, I spend time with my wife and kid.

Also, sometimes I play videogames.

I wish I can shoot arrows from the 30th floor to anywhere I want

I have my work, my family, and my home to worry about. I also have my continuing education. Eventually, we get down to hobbies- ham radio, paintball, reading, military history, traveling (when I have the money), watching predictably geeky TV shows on DVD. My long-suffering wife occasionally joins me for them.
We're also into sex.

Well I have been doing announcements for the school at the end of the day and I have been announcing for the schools football game recently.

Study.

When I'm done with school/studying then do concept art.

When not doing that I catapult flaming puppies into orphanages.

Outside of school: Photography, listening to music, reading, and a bit of writing

Drag racing for 6 months of the year, The rest of the year I just kinda bum around.

Watch anime and spend my time here. That is pretty much it, since I lack a life.

Build and maintain computers.
Tune my car. (Toyota Camry. Nothing special. Just maintenance and some small performance tweaks.)
Play Guitar (not hero)
Barbecue with friends.
Drink with friends.
Smoke with friends.
Hotmonkeybondagesex. (not with friends)

(anymore)

Well... current events (specifically my fingers darting skillfully over a keyboard) would have me believe that in my spare time I post here.

Also eating and sleeping are big things for me too.

Then would you be from Australia and the "Falcon" in your nick be a reference to the venerable Ford Falcon?

Yes got it in one.

Forum posting pretty much... I suppose general net surfing, but the Internet is a strange anjd scary place.

go out with friends, drum, watch tv, murder, work, lisen to music... you know, normal stuff.

Augh I thought I had a monopoly on the penguin name on the escapist O well I guess now we can work on escapist domination.

In free time I study, get on the escapist, play tennis, hang with the lady, eat, drudgereport.com

take the car out for a thrash, hang out with friends, go to restaurants, watch DVD's etc, mainly gaming in spare time tho, lots of gaming...

Other than games? Gee, I don't know. I'm in quite a dilemma here...

...Have a social life? Maybe?

That still one of my favorite cars. Have you gotten a chance to see/drive the '08?
That's definitely the next car I would get if they brought it to the states with that mean V8. Looks like I'll be settling for a WRX though. Ittl be fun seeing if I can get a 25 PSI turbo not to a'splode that 6cyl boxer.

hookers and blow

I deconstruct advertisements using semiotics and then send my analysis to the advertising ratings board. I also collect bits of twine.

I'm so lonely

I'm a martial artist. I also write, draw, watch movies and waste time on forums.

I'd like to think I was a writer. Then again, I'd like to be a writer that's making the kind of money and fame of J.K. Rowling, too.

Be it mild schizophrenia and/or a coping mechanism for being a quiet, lonely kid, I've ALWAYS come up with casts of characters representing something I felt was lacking in modern media. Besides that, I play games to dissolve-NOT AGITATE like pundits claim, violent or sexual ideas like how to seduce the hot neighbor lady when I'm friends with her son (not to mention her big marine husband) and if all else fails, there's good ol' 'net porn that is constantly weighing down my hard drives like a sumo on a swingset.

Spending time with my girlfriend, studying, working at my school's audio studio and MMCC lab, working at a neuroscience research lab down at the med school, weightlifting, Muay Thai, and being on the executive boards of a fraternity and my school's peer counseling group.

:]

I play bass in a band, design tattoos, do some work on a novel I'm writting, spend quality time with my daughter, go out and see bands, occasionally go to the gym or just chill and watch a movie.
