Here I am, sitting on a wednesday, now thurdays, morning at 04:32 and thinking about Ryan. It still feels unreal how much influence he has had on my life, even though I've never talked to or met the man himself.
I don't know why, but tonight I thought about Ryan more than I ever had after his passing. I think I finally realised how big of an impact he has had on my life. I started watching Giant Bomb from the beginning, in 2008. I was 16 at this time, an age where I was in the middle of the good old "teenager-what-is-life/whatever"-situation, and boy was I glad that Giant Bomb was my anchor during that period of my life. Now 8 years later (I just realised that's a long time), I know that Giant Bomb, and the people behind it, has helped define who I am today more than I would ever have imagined - and I can't thank them enough.
As of this writing, Ryan Davis had been a weekly constant for roughly a third of my entire life. A constant that has been missing for 2 and a half years now. You can't say that about a lot of people. No wonder I miss him.
Thank you.
