edit: ultimately, there is just some things you can't pretend to be into like a predator who 'plays' ffr but has like 20 games played rofl
enjoy 4chan greentext format for this epic true tale of yore:

>be me in 2006 or 2007
>17 yr old stepmania nerd
>big school trip to italy and greece
>fucking thaor is italian !
>reach out to him and tell him i'll be in rome and area during x dates
>thaor lives like 20 mins walk outside of rome and is down to meet !!
>get thaor's number but never seen another country code before (weird?)
>enter school trip
>get to rome and we have a couple hours free time
>one of my friends agrees to go on a quest to meet thaor
>go to payphone, insert foreign coins and get dial tone
>attempt to dial number but it has + and a country code, me being confused noob likely doesn't dial it correctly
>call ends up failing
>it's 2006-2007 and cell phones suck, i had left mine at home cuz out of country
>try getting to an internet cafe
>at this point only have an hour left
>my friend gets flakey, we decide to give up

I still wish that would have went down, I was hoping to be player 2 during some legendary score lmao

ps. my parents were chaperones on the trip and i def never said shit to them or they'd lose it. Imagine some 17 yr old and his buddy in a foreign place meeting a random 20 something from the net? My parents were ultra strict too haha

le sigh
