Fattest greasiest breakfast I can buy nearby. In college I would get the comically american large pancake/proteins + hash brown diner combo before a final and food coma my way through the stress. The place always had a fully decked topping bar so smother that shit in whipped butter and syrup. Calorie bomb helped me focus I think, and I didn't have any money in school so it was also my treat for getting through the quarter.

This might be a weird take because I only thought about it after reading your comment, which I am really curious to hear others opinions on as well. On Reddit, I can usually guess the 3 top level comments, and for any others that I don't - the comment came from a repost bot detecting bot that reposts the previous top level. The number of comments is higher, but sorting by new or controversial is a test of patience and morbid curiosity, so who actually sees these thousands of posts? I'm not saying what Lemmy has is better by any stretch, but it's novel for the time being and a good break from all the stuff I've been complaining about for years now.
I do get FOMO from not having all that information on r/all immediately within reach, but Lemmy has really helped me curb my reddit addiction in a good way. I don't think this really answered your question at all, but I think I am getting closer to understanding others that look past it. I was a digg refugee as well, so maybe I'm just getting used to the idea of starting over.
Hackers is a great choice, it's so cheesy but it just draws you in and completely suspends your beliefs. Every character is likeable and the lines are so well delivered, man now I got to rewatch it. Terminator 2, hackers, and Pokemon 1st gen probably made more SDEs than any stem outreach program.
Once when I was 8, a friend brought over his PS1 and Metal Gear Solid. We played pranks on the guards in the zone that has a bathroom using claymores and Nikita missiles and called snake the Toilet Stalker. Peak 8 year old humor, I couldn't breathe from laughing.
Another in High school, visited my older sister in the dorms and the boy floors were having a massive halo Lan party since all the rooms were connected. I had never played a console shooter before but the guys were really welcoming and wanted me to join anyways. One match came down to a 1v1 with me and one of the good players, I almost got him with the sniper but lost. I wasn't too bummed but afterwards everyone on the floor cheered me up. I stomped the same guy later that night in warcraft 3 and that one felt good.
