Yup! It's those things, people. Ever have a hilarious or horrible experience that left a permanent image in your mind's eye? How about a specific sound constantly reaverbotting reverberating in your brain? Or maybe you just have a few of those "CANNOT UNSEE" conundrums? This thread is hereby dedicated to the past mental scarring of all MMLSers! In the spirit of goodwill and extroversion, I'll throw out the first example; Spyro was one of my most cherished childhood franchises, and I bought all the PSX releases on launch day. Then Spyro 2 happened... One particular mission, named "Trouble With The Trolly", I believe, had an infamous voiceclip that plays each and every time you fail the mission, with said mission being rated five stars in difficulty. Also, the trolly controlled like a wet cake in Niagara Falls, so you'd end up listening to this piece of bull about one hundred times before you beat the mission. <_<

I actually remember beating that one. Trolley aside, Breeze Harbor was a cool level.
But if we're talking about things burned into our memories, my dad says shit that'd make the dad from Shit My Dad Says pass out cold, especially when he's hanging out with his brother, Uncle MoreOfAJerk. Highlights include:
- The phrase "Beta Man" snarkily, nasally repeated, for about ten minutes straight, into the phone during a conversation with their younger brother (Uncle Jerk, who is one of the few cool uncles I have). This has happened no less than twice in the last year.
- "Dashe, you can't just forget about the people who brought you into this world...your mom and some other man."
- [Graphic, physically impossible descriptions of things my dad and his girlfriend allegedly did on a beach in Puerto Rico on Valentine's Day]

Your father sure sounds like a swell guy. I'm sure him and my mother would get along swimmingly. That is, given the nasty banshee fails to find some insignificant reason to yell until his ears bleed.
Besides every instance that the aforementioned banshee cranked her damn volume to 11 over something trivial, I can clearly recall this one incident involving the roofless second tier of a double-decker tour bus and a collar-craving giraffe from the San Diego Zoo. All I can say is that I no longer trust anything sentient that so happens to be more than a foot taller than me.

I used to play maple story in high school, and never ended up getting any sleep. The death noise from that used to play in my head any time I ended up micro sleeping at work or something. There are lots of noises that happen in my head all the time, but I can't think of them right now.

Play Pokémon Gold/Silver and enjoying the game's music, only to realize you've had the sound off since you started.

Have you guys ever seen the movie "The Mask"? Well let me tell you, that movie was a traumatic experience for me as a 8-year old kid. To this day I still cannot look straight into any representation of the character or similar, all because of the single scene from the movie where the protagonist puts the mask to his face. The whole gooey stuff ooing around hiss face and practically melting it... eeegh. Why did I remember it again.
And I still don't understand how a movie like that has sequels and cartoons. For me it was pure horror. I avoid everything related to it, and even though now I am sort of fine with it, I would rather avoid the whole thing.

Aaaa, speaking of traumatic movies... another burned in thing is how the gremlins in the movie gremlins did certain terrible things from underneath furniture.. it's just awful to have that in your head for so long, I was just a teeny kid back then! :_;

As far as movies are concerned, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory really creeped me out when I was a kid. The plot was basically "Obey adults or you'll get sucked into tubes, turned into a blueberry, dropped into garbage, and/or shrunk down to the size of a GI Joe." I don't have a problem with it now that I'm an adult, for obvious reasons.

As a kid I played the Pokemon games (like oh, just about everyone at the time ) . There was a certain beep used for menu selection in Ruby/Sapphire and FireRed/LeafGreen,that you'd hear a lot. Or more than just a lot, in my case- I swear I would hear this beep all the time even when I wasn't playing the game. Just no matter where I was, if it was sufficiently quiet, I would hear it and wonder where it was coming from.

(will be adding stuff later once I come up with a way to word it)
