idk if I've ever posted this story on SA before but:

so I got my first PC when I was like 15 and I really wanted to start playing WoW with my friends. but back then you had to install it one disk at a time and it took forever, I had to go to my bullshit stock boy job at the supermarket. I ask my older brother to help me finish installing it while I'm at work and like set up my account and stuff so it'll be ready to play by the time I come home.

within a couple years of that, when I'm 16, my older brother dies. Unexpectedly, suddenly, tragically. loving sucks.

so anyways, a few years later, I'm trying to like merge my brother's old WoW account and my WoW account to have all our max level characters on one account. Except, for some reason, they need my answer to my account's "Secret Question" and no matter how many times I try to guess it, I can't.

The question is "What City Were You Born In?" so there's not a lot of things I think it COULD be. I'm going nuts. I call Blizzard reps who understand my frustration, but their hands are tied. One guy, I remember, says "maybe it's something that's like...personal to you? has some personal significance?"

I end up having to scan a copy of my driver's license and FAX it to Blizzard. in like 2010 lol.

So after this process that takes like six months, Blizzard finally sends me an email that has the answer to my Secret Question.

And that is the precise moment I remembered that my dead older brother set up my account. He got my rear end one last time from beyond the grave. Pwned.

A friend of mine took his own life in early 2017 after a long battle with (undiagnosed) paranoid schizophrenia. He did it on a night out and I was one of the last people to see him alive.

He was an avid Trackmania Turbo player, and every year on his birthday, I race against his ghost car (lol that that’s the term for it), so it’s like I’m keeping a small bit of him alive. :unsmith:

I miss you, Keith. Tell your mates you love them, Imps.

My wofe is a game hater but she doesnt give a gently caress if I game, like I dont give a gently caress if she reads books or does yoga for 7 hours with her private trainer.
