If not for the Escapist I...

[Ossian]

Would feel more isolated.
Would have never considered anime.
Would have a quarter of the knowledge I have right now about video games and nerd culture. (I was a nerd before but now I'm the one everyone asks about anything geeky)
Would have countless hours of nothing to do.
Would have a lot more time to do thing I should be doing.
Would never have admitted some things to anyone.
Would probably less social in real life, as my opinions seem to count around here, where they don't in life.
Would not be so tolerant of curse words (Thanks for that ZP lol)

I could go on, but I'll end with saying I love escapist

 

[DesiPrinceX09]

Probably would not have good forum to go to since I've always had bad experiences with forums in the past which heavily discouraged from ever going on them again until I found the escapist.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

...would've found some other website to waste my precious time on instead.
Seriously though, I might not have developed my new found hatred for fandom in all it's forms.

 

[Emissary Laito]

This site featured largely in a re-assessment of what I wanted from life, and a resulting change of perspective that makes me almost unrecognizable.
(This happened long before my join date for this account though, heh.)

So, were it not for the Escapist, I would likely be a completely different person.

 

[loc978]

Probably wouldn't have gotten back into gaming after my 6-year lapse.

 

[The Night Shade]

I wouldn't know so much about new games
I wouldn't know a lot of great videos
I wouldn't know a lot of reviewers

 

[Dr. wonderful]

....would be better off I guess.

 

[Wes1180]

I wouldn't have started looking at a couple of webcomics, gotten into lrr and their stuff, zero punctuation, extra credits moviebob and some others...

My dad showed me unforgotten realms and then I started watching it here and just stayed...
