I know we all like the movie, but well...certainly you guys must have some other interests. I do anyway. Just felt like creating a thread to share likes and possibly find someone who shares interests and introduce others to things you like. Feel free to ask others more about what they like or give examples of what you like to show people more clearly.
Putting in the "general" area since the likes don't have to be from one category or another.
Some things I like include: The Who (One of my favorite bands) Animals (Hence my being a biology major) Drawing/Doodling (My DA should be on my profile) Wes Bentley (He's pretty rad) Musicals (I have quite a list) Graphic Novels Cirque du Soleil Collecting Skulls (found a dog skull on a beach and cleaned it and glued it back together myself) Nature Walks Roleplaying/Writing Stories
And those are just some of the things I like. What about you guys?

Lol. I know too many boys who watch MLP: FM. I won't laugh, but I will just give you a bemused look. I can understand an appreciation for show, but I don't understand the obsession that has taken a growing percentage of the population. Graphic novels. <3 I also have an avid appreciation for web comics. (Particularly Dr. McNinja) Musicals, man we need to talk musicals sometimes. It is the only way I can get a 'certain' French song out of my head. Role Playing/ Writing Harry Potter Musicals Batman/Superheroes Pokemon Marching Band Music (All genres excluding most Rap) Latin Reading History (Also culture.) My Cats Animation Ninjas Art/Ceramics Not Writing Research Papers Old Stuff (books, computer games, cars, furniture, architecture) Umm... Procrastinating.

My friends keep telling me I should get into Doctor Who...I should get on that.
And I notice quite a few collections going on...anyone else collect things?
I already mentioned skulls, but I also collect "The Who" related items and musicals on DVD.

Yah I was thinking on getting into Doctor Who as well. I know some people who love it ... and it seems alright ^^;
Collecting eh? I don't have any major collections myself but I am thinking of collecting road signs (as I said before.) It's just ... the only way I could do that is a) Spend a fortune buying them or b) ... Steal them off the street. NOW I'm no crook but ... it ... might ... sort of ... be an option to consider. I'm just saying!
By the way, SKULLS? Really? I never thought that was a popular hobby to have. XD How many do you have?

I'm rather into Doctor Who, too. I quite enjoy it, in fact. I'm really looking forward to the second half of S6 this Saturday.

I actually only just started, and my collection is not just limited to skulls. I pretty much just have a little "Death Collection". Bones and such fascinate me, and I hope to incorporate them into my occupation once I finish my major. However, here's what I have so far.
Virgil the coyote skull, Savalon the Red Fox Skull, Ambuli the raccoon skull, all of whom I have purchased myself. A friend of mine brought me some kind of small deer skull from Prague that's super old and I haven't tried to find the species just yet whom I've named Bartleby. My last skull is actually one I found one night while catching and measuring horseshoe crabs, and that would be my small dog skull named Geminus for "twin" because it only has 6 teeth, but they're symmetrical. It was mostly free of flesh when I got it, but I had to scrub it clean and glue it all back together myself. Actually used Virgil to help me get bones in place.
However, as I mentioned, my collection has more than just skulls. A friend of mine for my birthday made me necklaces, one with a wolf claw and another with 3 wolf teeth. I found the vertebra from an unknown animal (and it's really quite large) on the same beach I found Geminus. Just today I acquired some more bones. A fox died in a park near where I live, and someone I know already has its skull, but today I went back to the site of the dead fox and got 3 leg bones, the hip bone, and 3 vertebra.
Also, this summer I went to New Hampshire and in the country store they had rabbit pelts for really cheap. I have 5, all with names relating to alcoholic beverages that suit a feature. There's Cosmopolitan (Cosmo as in universe) who is the biggest, Martini (Tini) the smallest, Tequila who has beautiful fawn/gold in his coat, Kahlua who is the darkest, and White Russian who is of course, white.
If anyone's interested I'd be willing to show photos of my stuff. The fox bones still need to be washed and cleaned, but everything else is display worthy.

Oh I didn't know Netflix had Dr.Who! I should really check it out now! XD (I has Netflix too)
Lykaios that sounds really cool! My dad has an old fox pelt that's been sitting in his closet for about 20 years and it's always kind of creeped me out. But it's interesting the collection you have. :3 How much do skulls cost anyway? (I wouldn't think they'd to too easy to acquire XD) You're a very interesting person. An -M- enthusiast and a ... "death collector"? ^^

Oh there are soooo many things I like!
Owls (my room is filled with plushies of them) Tim Burton films (one wall of my room has a huge Jack Skellington poster on it) Invader Zim (mostly GIR, but I like the whole series) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (I know the fandom has sorta died out. Don't care) Books (basically any genre) Video Games (mostly RPGs) Anime and Cosplaying (went to my first anime convention over the summer. Best day ever)
Ummm, there's probably more, but I will bore you all with my other obsessions on a later date.

I'm actually interested in getting a fox pelt, but not the typical one. I want one of the cool variations like a silver fox or something. That fox your father has sounds interesting though XD And cost can depend from skull to skull based on condition and type of animal. The one's I've purchased have been in the $25-$35 range, but for free one can always go out scavenging. I haven't found any roadkill in an easily accessible area, but I have found some things in the parks near where I'm from. That's free. Just need some TLC and peroxide to clean 'em up And thanks XD I have quite a lot of interests. And KC, I love Tim Burton films and Invader Zim as well. I own a number of his films along with a NBC poster, Jack plushie, and some tiny figures of Jack, Sally, Lock, and Barrel. Also, My roommate has a good sized figurine of Jack. As far as Invader Zim goes I own the volume 2 of the DVDs and some small miscellaneous stuff. I'm a fan of Jhonen Vasquez anyway, and I have the director's cut of Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. And I have a friend who's actually rather good at cosplaying. Man...I'm such a talk box XD This is terrible.
