That’s the opposite of me… when I was in my early 20s and worked retail, a lady at my store saw my Pokémon hoodie and was like “my kids outgrew Pokémon, do you wanna buy their stuff for cheap?”

I go over there and there’s four containers (two of them Pokémon themed backpacks) full of minis, plushies, and more. I asked her how much and she’s like “ehhh fifty bucks?” I have never said yes so quickly in my life.

As I’m leaving, she’s like “oh do you want their cards for another forty?” And busts out three albums, complete sets of base, jungle, and fossil, with some other sets at the end. Base set had a bunch of first editions (not Charizard, unfortunately… just regular foil.)

I still have everything she sold me, 18 years later. I dunno if I can ever sell them.

I forgot I bought Wilds… I put 200-400+ hours in every game since the first PSP game, and I think I have 40 hours in Wilds.

I don’t know why… it just didn’t… do it for me? I still bought it, I guess. Maybe it’s worth revisiting. It performed fine on my computer, but I didn’t love how it didn’t have a hub world.

I don’t think so. I just didn’t like the texture and taste, it wasn’t rotten or anything. It just wasn’t for me.

I loooove Uni! Soooo sea-tasting. It flavors all the sushi I eat after it, too!

Ooooo thanks for this! I played when it came out, but haven’t played in a year and some months. I’ll have to pick it back up and start over!

My partner thought “SMH” meant “so much hate”, and “SMDH” meant “so much damn hate”. It worked perfectly in every situation they heard it in. I taught them the real meaning when I realized this about a half decade into dating.

I LOOOOVE sushi. I love allll sushi. I’ve never had a piece of sushi I didn’t like.

…until I was at a nice sushi place, and I got sushi with a quail egg on it. I don’t know what else was on it, because the semi-raw or raw quail yolk ball was horrid. I couldn’t stand it. I spit it out and I felt soooo bad.

I’ve lost three close friends due to suicide. Two of them had been my best friend, but for various reasons, I was a bit more distanced from for a few months to a year. That hit hard.

The other friend was current my best friend, my partner’s best friend, and most of our friends’ best friend. Her pretty-much-partner found her. That was devastating to myself and everyone around me.

I don’t know if I’d say they changed my view on life. I feel pretty much the same about life, but now I appreciate all of the time I spend with my loved ones more.

RO was my favorite game of all time (and still is) up until they made it F2P.

When the DS came out, I walked 20 minutes to the mall, picked one up, walked home, and started playing.

I noticed it had one red stuck pixel.

I had my dad drive me back when he came home and got a new one.

My PSP has one white pixel but the pixels are so small, I kept it… especially because it was a Christmas present.
