I miss my old job. Fuck, today is 1 year anniversary of us parting ways. I remember how they told me and my collegues, that this month will be last and I thought to myself "If that's the case, I'm going to make as much as possible, fuck the quality, what they gonna do, fire me?" And this was the time when I worked best in terms of quality and quantity. It fucking broke my heart whem that month ended.
 
Arcades. I grew up pumping quarters in to games like Double Dragon, Rygar, and Kung Fu Master. So many fond memories!
 
I miss when malls were some what fun places to go to and not barren waste lands were old people wonder around aimlessly.
 
I miss a stray dog which lived in small village when i was 5-6. It was a big black dog, who loved to spend time with kids and always was with us when we played outside. Once a kid fell down from a swing and broke bone, so after that dog didn't allow us to swing high. Once he scared away an alcoholic who tried to came to kids. All village loved him, we always let him stay in home for a night when it was cold outside. Everyone gave him food.
But one day doghunters killed him :heart-empty:
 
I miss the days when the internet would respond to poor translation / localization with funny memes and catchy remixes ("ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US), as apposed to now, where spergs just go on autistic crusades against the people responsible for it (that entire Fire Emblem Fates localization shitstorm).

Thing is, funny-bad localizations don't happen anymore except for really obscure stuff. These days big game companies actually put time and effort into localizations because they've learned from the past, so we don't end up with hilariously bad mistranslations like CONGLATURATION anymore.
 
I miss going out in the backyard wearing camo clothes (I also had sunglasses and a beret) and carrying cheapo spring-loaded airsoft guns and LARP'ing with my younger brothers and my Dad and Uncle serving as referees.

It was just running around shooting imaginary zombies, terrorists, vampires, and other baddies like an even more autistic version of Deagle Nation, but it was fun and I was twelve at the time, the oldest of three brothers.

We'd often liberally rip-off stuff from Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid, Hellsing, Fullmetal Alchemist, InuYasha, Punisher comics, and other nerd stuff but damn if it wasn't fun back then.
 
I miss the arcade that used to be nearby. Got replaced by a Forever 21 store. Still fucking hate that chain because of it, and it's still there too.
 
I miss when my city wasn't filled with old fogies. They've built/are building/extended/are extending roughly 6 different elderly living apartments in the last 3-4 years. This city is expanding rapidly from annoying, religious military fucks dropping down here and they're all apparently carting their boomer parents from other states or where the fuck ever to stay with them until they croak.
 
My cognitive functions pre-graveyard shift. I feel as though so many neurons have died and I can't remember shit from those three months.

Is there anything you guys miss? Post here to talk about them.
I'm going to start this off with what we all miss: the old Chris Chan. The one that loitered in malls with his attraction signs, tard raged at his PS Eye towards the trolls, lamented about being a virgin with rage, hated the homos, and continued to reveal embarrassing details for our amusement ("DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS!", anyone).

Really makes this song nostalgic in retrospect

I miss being able to have passion for things.
I remember back in High School, I would bike home, buy some snacks and invest hours on personal projects. Drawing, shitty animations and video projects for school. I had so much fun doing them while on the side I would browse the CWCki forums and watch anime and movies I torrented off Pirate Bay. I would enjoy so much playing video games and spending hours to mod them to be just right to my tastes.

Somewhere during Senior Year, that changed. I'd draw less, stop animating and eventually lose passion in editing videos.
Now I found myself just browsing Kiwi Farms for the same 3 threads, can't get myself to play new video games, can't feel the motivation to draw 90% of the time. I can't even find the motivation to mod my elder scrolls games.
I just want my passion to come back.(:_(
 
I remember these Tropicana fruit snacks that tasted like they were actual fruit, but I haven’t seen them in years. Also Doritos pizza crackers and ranch from those dual flavor packs they did. It didn’t taste at all like pizza, but it was fucking awesome!

As for other stuff, I miss when Halo and Call of Duty were good, and I really miss the days when video games were actually single player and everything wasn’t fucking online only multiplayer shit.
 
Not much. I’m more cynical in the present but I’m pretty content with my life as it is. Most of the things I might miss are a result of delusions that were bad for me anyway.
