I really have a hard time with any activity that doesn't involve my hands in some way, for instance I don't go to the movies because once I'm done eating my food I just have to sit and watch and I hate it. Same thing about like just going in a park to sit and talk, yeah I love talking with my friends but not just while sitting and doing nothing else, talking around food, while working, playing video games, etc I love, but just sitting and nothing else? Nah.
What I hate about that is that people can't seem to understand that, when I say it they say stuff like '' Well when you're sitting in front of your computer you're not doing anything either ''.
I guess it makes me somewhat of a hermit because of it because honestly not liking activities where I don't use my hands really eliminate tons of possibilities. I'm well aware it ain't really normal, there's a name for it too but heh, it doesn't make my life that much of a hassle so it's still alright.

My favorite sports are Volley-ball and Badminton but that's not an activity my friends would enjoy except for like, 2 of them, and those 2 are my vidya bros so when they come we usually end up just calling pizza and playing video games.

Ah also something else, I hate being outside during good weather, when the weather sucks I'll usually have a huge ass smile on my face because I love being outside during bad weather (like I REALLY like it, I often start laughing because of how much I like it). Obviously nobody wants to hang out outside during rainy weather or thunderstorms so...
Not really related to the hand thing but it still contributes to my ''hermitism''.

Also note that the weather thing isn't applicable during the night, being outside at night is awesome no matter what, if the weather sucks it's even better.

It's not a choice really, when I'm not doing anything with my hands I always end up picking something up and playing with it, often without even realizing it. I broke up tons of things that way.

How? Unless you live in a huge plain it's not that dangerous.
It not being dangerous doesn't make it pleasant >_>
Thunderstorms don't make the outside experience much better or worse for me, though - they're just there. I can't imagine how you could possibly enjoy rain, though <_<

I have this too, actually. I have two balls laying on my desk. When I'm not doing anything else with my hands I'm constantly playing with either of them (no innuendo intended).
Last week I walked to work under a heavy rainstorm, like so heavy that I had trouble not breathing water, I was laughing the whole time (like 25 minutes), I might be crazy but still ! I freaking love rain. My clothes were glued to my body by the time I got to work, hopefully I work near a grill so I dried in a matter of minutes.

Snow is awesome too, I love when it snows at night like when the snowflakes are big, it's magical.Though now I live in the city so snowy nighs will probably suck a bit now.

I don't like standing when doing nothing with my hands. It makes me feel extremely uncomfortable. I either have to have a hand in my pocket or hanging outside of my pocket (right thumb in pocket most of the time, looking modelesque) or it just feels weird. Hell, that's the main reason I buy drinks at clubs... I can't stand not doing anything with my hands.
But if I'm sitting down or talking to people or whatever, I'm generally fine not actually "using" my hands. I just can't stand with my hands hanging at my sides.
As for the weather... I love rainy days, but snow is terrible. Nice to look at if I don't have to actually step outside, but most of the time... it sucks. I really hate the term "nice weather" though. There is nothing "nice" about weather over 20 degrees (70ish for you Americans), being hot sucks. Sweating sucks. I'd rather take a sunny day at 60(15) degrees than this 85+ bull**** everyone seems to love so much. Ugh.

Totally agree, can't understand at all people who like anything over 20. When it gets too hot my skin itches, it's like I'm allergic to warmth.
