i miss magic for every single reason except playing magic
i miss drawing into top 8 of a showdown and going to the butcher shop to get a sandwich with chris and keith. i miss accusing ryan of crimes he didnt commit while in line to cross the border.
i miss the pervert at the card shop lying to the judge about the age of the naked girl on his deck box. i miss going to the korean fried chicken place and eating ten thousand calories after not eating all day at a tournament.
i miss catching cheaters at every other event. i miss getting game losses to adhd deck reg errors but winning the event anyways. i miss the pre-tournament jitters. i miss the walk to the venue on a crisp autumn morning in a deserted american city.
the actual games though? spending weeks preparing for an event only to miss because of the game's snowballing variance? doing free marketing for a company selling increasingly egregious loot boxes? fuck that noise buddy, i just wanna do dumb shit with my friends again
i should really add that mostly i just miss tyler "prohilary" nightingale
