- When you are waiting in line at best buy to get a copy Street Fighter Anniversary Edition and you get into an argument that sounds like this…
Lady behind me-Can you let me go before you my dog is waiting in the car and its hot outside.
Me-This should only take a sec Im using my credit card.
Lady-Well i hope for your sake that my dog dosent die…
Me-What?
Lady-You heard me?
Me-… I will Fierce Punch your @$$ if you dont leave me alone.
Lady-!??!?!?!?!? I’m goign to another line I dont have to take this.
Me-Your Done.
495.when you’re broke and need a new controller you think so seriously about stealing one from gamestop you go case the place (don’t worry i didn’t do it i just asked for an application instead)
See? Here’s how she could have averted a tragedy:
Lady behind u-Can you let me go before you my dog is waiting in the car and its hot outside.
U-This should only take a sec Im using my credit card.
Lady-Well i hope for your sake that my Little Ryu dosent die…
U-What? You have a dog named Ryu?
Lady-Yeah. Im from Japan. His name means drag-
U-Go right ahead ma’am. I hate seein Ryu’s life being depleted.
Lady-Uh, ok. ??? I guess (slightly confused, she cuts you with your permission)
As she runs to the car to rescue her heat exhausted dog, you yell “Rush that shit down!”
All she had to do was replace dog, with Little Ryu, and her dog would still be alive today. Unfortunately, Fido melted and died in the 150degree car and is no longer with the lady behind you.

Your morning routine: wake up, shower, make bed, eat breakfast, turn on PS2, insert CvsS2 (or MvsC2 or SF Anniversary), enter training mode and stay there for HOURS, play & win arcade mode on normal-hard difficulty, go back to training 'cause you thought your performance was horrible, repeat Arcade mode… Eventually, you’ll get to survival mode… maybe

Thanx. Damn. #500. Should we stop here or keep goin till the answers just completely stop making sense? Cause I could see this thing going way past 500.
…no This post should be locked
That wasn’t even a real reason. Here’s the ending and final reason-
#500 You know you have played too much street fighter when as long as street fighter keeps on living, you’ll still continue to support and play the game until you no longer continue living or lose overall interest.
Well that’s 500 folks. Thanks to all those who contributed as well as shared their own moments and telling us how hardcore you really are. Well we finally reached the goal and we might as well stop since it was a long struggle. Just don’t forget that in the very end, we all love street fighter.
-Peace
PORKY PIG… “THATS ALL FOLKS”
no more reasons…
OK now someone needs to compile this whole list and post it on a site. Maybe give credits to the contributors at the end of the list or next to their reasons. This was pure comic gold and Id hate to see it lost in the sands of time.
the numbers got fucked a couple times its gonna end up being more like 475
