I used to be really into obscure techno/trance/dance music and I would tell people to listen to these shitty songs on youtube.
Good god the worst stuff. I watched crappy 240p Naruto AMVs made in Windows Movie Maker on Youtube, I bought a Nickleback album (That was a poor choice no matter what my age was), I went through the whole "LOL SO RANDOM OMG LOL BACON BUTTS HUEHUE" phase, Went through a phase where I thought I was psychotic and tried to make myself look like I was a pyromaniac. I actually went through a small Runescape phase but never ROBLOX. I never got into that game. Fuckin hell this is the shit that your supposed to take to your grave.
I had this ~six-month phase when I was 14-15 during which I thought psychopaths were just the coolest shit and genuinely believed I was one. fuckin christ
I used to like Linkin Park, I used to like memes and used "XD" frequently. I thought most YTP's were funny. I at one point was a "religious people are stupid!!1" person. I used to like Call of Duty Being 13 is interesting. OH GOD MY OLD YOUTUBE ACCOUNT WHEN I WAS 12-13. NO PLEASE, END IT ALL.
I was basically an ultimate nerd 5-17, always on my win95 or gbc, then around 2003 I was introduced to MMORPGs, played them religiously, always straight As in school. At 17-20 I became an ultimate world-loving hippie, long hair, hugs and drugs everywhere. And now at 20 I am in a early adulthood crisis
All during high school I wore a trenchcoat. Like, 95% of the time I'd wear it to school. I didn't even mean anything by wearing it, I just thought it was a really nice coat. Still just wore a t-shirt and jeans under it. That's about it.
I went through a phase where I wanted to be like Goku in every aspect, mostly the hunger part so I would always pretend or make myself hungry :v:
I tried to get everyone to play relatively obscure (at least where I lived) games and half-life mods like sven-coop, natural selection, TFC, etc. It was literally all I played and if someone asked me about runescape I usually went 'runewhat?' After finally realizing that finding someone who actually played the shit I played was extremely slim, from middle-school till like junior year high-school I saw people who played mainstream games as lower lifeforms and believed that I was vastly superior to them in both skill and video-game knowledge. It didn't help much that I was extremely good at FPS games thanks to being addicted to the specialists, so whenever I had a chance (our school had casual leagues alot for games like quake, cod, etc.) I would participate anonymously and completely annihilate everyone, further reinforcing me being essentially a massive elitist. Around senior year I loosened up and actually tried these trashy mainstream games and actually found them to be kinda great. Thanks to that though, my entire childhood was basically composed of playing various half-life modifications (usually the most popular ones) and me COMPLETELY missing out on the old greats like runescape and... honestly I don't even know.
9gag phase, cod and Minecraft let's player, furry, brony, give up on school and life, 4chan asshole. Full package
I was born full of hatred and I never changed
Nothing that stacks up with everybody's brony furry fedora stuff, that's for sure. I did go through a phase in Jr. High where I was a fucking asshole, though. Including bullying someone who is now basically my only friend (I've never really talked to him about it, though I have told him I'm sorry a few times. I still feel like a piece of shit about it sometimes.) and hitting people. I don't remember it, but somebody told me I broke a large stick over their back during this phase. And in High School I was pretty depressed for a while, but came out of that so I'd call it a phase. [editline]banana[/editline] Oh man, and I completely forgot about that time in Jr. High I started wearing a tranchcoat that was way too big for me even so far as trenchcoats go. And I wore a blazer a few times in high school, which was pretty dumb. [editline]banana[/editline] Oh and there was also that thing I went through where I went mega cynical hipster style for a couple years and hated everything that was popular, like music and TV shows and all that stuff.
In Grade Six I went through an Ancient Egypt phase. Like, I LOVED Ancient Egypt; the mythology, their society, their architecture. Everything I did in art was Egypt related. I marveled in its majesty and was fascinated by its fiction. That same year, the seventh grade class got to take a week long trip to Egypt. A WEEK in EGYPT. It was a dream come true. When my seventh grade friends returned they spoke of seeing Great Pyramids and climbing the lesser pyramids. Seeing the Sphinx and visiting the Valley of the Kings. I awaited anxiously for my time to come. ...The following year, Grade Seven; I had asked about whether or not we were going to do the trip again that year. Unfortunately, they weren't and I don't believe they have any other year since. The first of several dreams to be crushed. Since then, I still have always had a dream of visiting Egypt along with many other parts of the world, but for now it is just that; a dream.

I used to have a long hair, and for some time too, but never again. Unless I choose to travel around the world as cheaply as possible, and therefor becoming a rhastafari of sorts.
Edgy shut-in durgs user phase. Glad I've gotten that outta my system. I probably would've lost my social life/sanity if I'd kept going.
I played like 5 minutes of Garrys mod in like 2007 at a friends of my brothers house and became an overly annoying 'PC is da bessst and consoles and halo are gay' teen. I didn't even have a computer or the orange box until 2009 :| I also had a mega Half-Life DM phase, probably because I was good at it. Now I suck at [I]all[/I] games and can't enjoy them to even a fraction of when I did. When did it all go so wrong? Oh and biggest regret was the edgy as fuck phase. Where I'd not engage in any conversations and couldn't see when girls were actually hitting on me. Now no one talks to me and in a normal month I see no chicks my age. Don't fuck up your school life, kids!
Only phases I can remember were gas, liquid and solid. Liquid was definitely my worst phase.
every stereotypical edgy, autistic phase you can think of minus neck beard, brony and furry I thought that I was cooler than everyone, had my profile picture on my Facebook set as me in a fedora (was actually a trilby) and wore the nerdiest fucking clothes. i had a fucking trollface shirt PS: all this shit ended in high school but god damn do i regret that
I honestly used to be a Brony, but I never bought any merchandise or talked to anyone about it because, well, why the hell would I? Eventually, I just stopped watching it because I just stopped watching TV all together. Even so, I don't hate the show or even most of the fan base, and when I see small clips of the show I still get some memories which are mostly good.
Age 3-4: "I want to be Superman!" (I wore a t-shirt with bandaids shaped like an S and a towel cape) Age 4-6: "I want to be a ninja turtle!" (Kong-fu fighting with everyone) Age 6-8: "I want to be a soldier!" (pew pew pew!) Age 8-10: "I want to be a fighter pilot!" ("I believe I can flyyyy!") Age 10-20: "I want to be a cop!" (Abiding every law, no matter how petty.) Age 20-25: "I want to be a marine engineer!" (1,5 years of metal work/mechanics + 3,5 years of studies. Got my bachelor degree.) Age 25-28 (now): "I have no frikkin idea what I want to to be!" I had a an edgy phase in high school though. Bangs, goatee and a 1940ies Danish trench coat. Listened to Linkin Park. I still dont understand how I got laid.
I wasn't very edgy at any point (except for my former username "NEG4tive") and my grades were good, but in elementary school I was so wild and noisy during lessons that I was taken to some place to investigate if I have ADHD. It was never confirmed nor denied, and I didn't take any medication, but soon after a few years we got a new teacher and I started calming down. In middle school I was bullied for being with certain "unpopular" guys and got slightly depressed because of that. I also got more shy and quiet over time, mostly ending my idiotic behaviour from a few years back. The rest of school was just trying to be accepted by everyone and blend in, which went okay. Except for me never being happy with ANYTHING for a loooooong time. Also for so many years I tried making games with zero effort in 2 seconds using any free software I could find with my terrible english. "Making games" consisted of downloading a template and changing some sprites to terrible ms paint pixel art. I even went on a finnish coding forum to ask for help making a Smash Bros. clone, and eventually I was requesting them to make the whole thing for me.
When I was in my teens I was a scene kid, I did it all for the girls.. It worked. I'm sorry
Linken Park, hardcore atheism, black clothes.
Elementary School: (Normal) - Normal kid, I guess. - Had a handful of friends, mostly a loner who just wanted to go home. Middle school: (EMO PHASE) - BIG "emo" phase. - Grew my bangs out to make a Devil Lock hairdue (which looked sooo fucking stupid) - 6th was me still innocent and thinking all my old friends were stilll my friends, but weren't. - Had a gigantic group of friends consisting of only Weeaboo girls (not sure why, but I "dated" all of them at least once) - Started acting out in 8th, getting into the wrong crowd with a 16-year old in 8th grade who was held back for the longest time. - Got into my first fight. It was a draw. I broke his nose, he gave me a black eye. - Was being "watched" by the administration, got a LOT of ISS (in-school suspension) High school: (DON'T GIVE A SHIT PHASE) - Still had my stupid ass fucking haircut and i DON"T KNOW WHY - Lost my virginity to my brother's current ex-girlfriend about 2 months into Freshman year. - Skipped A SHIT TON of school. - Never did any of my work so I had a GPA of (not lying): 0.067 (I'm not stupid, I just didn't do the work) - Heard the "IF ONLY HE APPLIED HIMSELF" bullshit over and over and over again. - Started being more social, making more friends, girlfriends, going out and living a normal life. - Fell in love and then it blew up which caused a lot of mental and emotional trauma/issues (anxiety, panic attacks) - Shaved my head, thank fuck. - Dropped out... Now we here: (STILL DON'T GIVE A SHIT PHASE) - Reclusive. - I have a job, but its shitty. - I have a girlfriend of 4 years now, but I also kinda hate that. - I developed chronic migraines and chronic back/neck pain. - Been through at least 7 Doctors in the past 3 or 4 years. (a new one today actually at 2PM.) - I'm a physically broken, reclusive, careless asshole.... And I couldn't be any happier.... Well, okay, I could use a new GF and a new job... - Not to mention I'm also totally dependent on prescription painkillers. Its funny how somethings turn out.
Went through the phase where I loved Runescape as a kid, later on I was pretty normalish I guess until I became a brony. Biggest mistake in my life :V Just a regular furfag now.
