>Arcade is loud as fuck but barely nobody inside.
>Sees a couple of dudes my age in the corner at the UMK3 cabinet.

>Dude goes to bring his friend back and asks me to apologize to him.
>Remember that I'm going back him in a few days and probably never coming back, so instead didn't apologize and tell the kid to "Suck It", making the WWF DX gesture.
>Crybaby flat-out says "You like wrestling and call me a fruitcup?No, you suck MY dick!"
>Arcade owner cracks up laughing, pointing at me.
>Feel the rage of a thousand burning suns that he calls wrestling gay.
>Tell him "Sure" but if only he can beat me in MvC2, but if he loses has to pay me ten dollars because he dared to call wrestling Gay within earshot of me.

No. I Just never played anybody but my close friends in the game and was never a pro player and never felt interested in super high-level competitive play.

I was too stupid to realize that I was from out-of-town and those two frequently went to that arcade. Crybaby was holding back on purpose and I never realized it. My first warning should have been when he rushed to pick all three of his characters before me and his assists. The second warning should have been that he refused to use the hyper gauge for a long time despite clearly knowing how to do regular special movies and high-jumps.

He played at a better level than I did because I thought I was hot shit and he actually played matches against tougher competitive players, so he knew his shit and played me like a fiddle for the fun of it.

honestly, I figured there'd be more sharing, but I guess there's just a bunch of underage kids on /v/ these days that've really never been in an arcade before.

they really made you suck his dick? thats sick, thats really really sick i cant believe you didnt tell the police. How did you ever live this down??its like something out of a movie

No. You just wanted to use this thread to jerk off while posting your beta fantasy fuckboy thread about how you sucked some strangers dick. You are a fucking degenerate that should either get laid or kill yourself.
>>
>>338361874

I would share more stories but I didn't really go to arcades to be social because I was always just some nerdy kid.

Here's the only story of note that I really remember from like 20 years ago:

>playing at my favorite nickel arcade
>some little nigger is wandering around asking for coins
>tell him to go away
>later notice some other nigger who looks very similar, they were probably brothers or something
>run into my brother later on who apparently ran into the nigger and gave him a few coins for "a $20 bill"
>find one of the niggers (not even sure if it was the right one) and tell him I'll trade him coins for a $20 bill
>he says no and seemed confused
>later realize that the "$20 bill" was counterfeit
>later wondered if my brother actually got tricked or didn't care, never did find out

Bonus mini-story that I just remembered that was also like 20 years ago:

>at another arcade, riding up the elevator to the (crappy) 2nd story
>rip a smelly fart inside with 2 other dudes riding up that were at least 10 years older than me
>1 dude asks the other if he farted, other dude says no
>only other person in elevator was me
>they both stare at me while I try hard to not smirk and laugh because they might not find it funny
>they both don't say anything else and leave in disgust

I was a stupid kid and sure as shit didn't want to come back to school next year hearing all about it, so I didn't say a word. Also, I didn't want to lose the sense of respect my friends back at home had. Being stupid and afraid of things like was more than enough.

Part of the problem is that I had an inflated sense of ego from being better than all of my local friends who never set foot into an arcade to begin with, so I had no sense of understanding what I was getting myself into.

The rest of the problem was that I simply wasn't used to losing and embarrassed myself. I overreacted and threw a tantrum, then threw up. That and the fact that I made a fucking bet in passing and never actually considered anybody would be in the mind to take it seriously. To them, I was pretty much a bully who cornered himself by hurling in the bathroom.


Crybaby turned out to be younger than me by about a year. Watcherbro is older by a month.

>>338363163
Its just so strange to me that you can call the watcher "bro" after he forced you to suck his friends dick. How can you not resent these people especially with all the wrestling you watched and your ego? I would of thought you would of wanted to get back at them or at least fight your way out of sucking the dick.

That reminds me.
There's a mall in south jersey that has a mini-arcade in it. (pretty sure it's depford mall.) At one point the change machine was in error in favor of the people getting change, giving the incorrect amount by the next dollar value up. exploited the shit out of it and got 10 bucks in quarters in exchange for 2 one dollar bills.

Because instead of being a complete prick, he did genuinely come to the bathroom to see if I was okay at first and then told both me and Crybaby off for being assholes. He wasn't taking sides even though crybaby was literally his boyfriend. He didn't want to force me to do anything at first, but he did say I was a huge pussy if I backed down after his boyfriend put up the ten bucks in a money match as to where I offered him something else.

I was afraid they'd jump me if I declined, but they just offered and I didn't really think abut it until after it was over. They didn't actually make the effort to threaten me and Crybaby was afraid I'd bite, so he asked Watcher to just hold my jaw open. Before then, he didn't actually try to lay a finger on me and I wasn't trying to stand back of from near the toilet out of fear of being roughed up or something. After it was over, they still stayed there and Watcher just looked disgusted with me. He didn't laugh or make fun of me a single time. It can't be stressed enough how stupid and gullible I was.


>before anybody asks, no. It wasn't fun. It was stupid and it hurt. My jaw was sore for hours and I gargled a quarter bottle of listerine when I got back to my grandmother's house.


I played the match like a dumbass without thinking about what I agreed to because I was eager to make Crybaby cry again. If the owner said I had to leave the arcade, I wanted to at least leave an impression by making a couple of people I was intolerant toward feel bad. And that was literally the dumbest thing I've ever done next to getting drunk on the dawn of my sister's wedding.

It was a government sanctioned requirement for every pizza establishment to have this machine in the 90's.
