I'd still be getting my ass handed to me in Smash, because I'm a stubborn bastard that can't realize how bad he is at fighting games.

Oh, and my desktop background would still be Ice Climbers themed.

Let's see

I wouldn't be slightly..well okay more than slightly obsessed with suwako's hat

I would have listened to other music for these past months.

Strange but true fact: mew77 hasn't listened to anything but touhou music for months

I would probably never know about bullet hell.

The number nine would no longer have special meaning

so it's definitely good I got into touhou

I'd like to have IRL friends who like Touhou; all the ones I've introduced to it have recoiled in horror. But at least I have you guys!

I'd still be playing World of Warcraft, for better or worse...

Well, let's just say that I would be less happy than I currently am.

1. I would be listening to NOTHING but Dragonforce.
2. I would have no games other than Racing games that run on this crappy old Intel 810e onboard.
3. My cousin and I would have had barely anything to talk about.
4. I would never have seen Yukarin. >=3

Are you saying that you've never looked at yourself with a mirror?

Honestly I'm not sure. o~o; I might be some kind of unholy amalgam for all I know. I've been around Touhou for a while, so I'm not even sure WHAT I am anymore. XD

I suppose I wouldn't be making attempts at my own game by myself. Before I saw Touhou and ZUN's work, I was under the impression the only way my ideas would take form would be to get into the industry and convince a company to create my game. Looking back, I doubt I would have been successful and stuck in a career I wouldn't have liked.

So, I suppose in a way, Touhou helped me not waste my life... >.>;

Without Touhou, I would never really have learned how much practice and preserverence contributes to you achieving your goals and dreams. I genuinely felt more emotional 1cc'ing PCB Lunatic than I did at my graduation, purely because I felt the former was some kind of impossible feat that I would never do.

I also wouldn't have my "happy place" (the Hakurei Shrine) for meditating.

well..for starters...

I would be built like a tank, run 5 marathons, Have like 17 chicks all over me, More money than everyone on Wallstreet COMBINED and have walked on the moon...

ok so I can't blame all of that not happening on Touhou...but at the very least I wouldn't have crossplayed

^ I love this post.  :))

I was thinking about what I'd do at a convention earlier, and then I realised I dont wanna try crossplaying before I've done even a fairly normal looking cosplay (if such exists) then I realised I basicly hardly watch any anime anymore so yeah... not gonna happen lol.
