Plus + is a double positive, which is, infact, a negative. How dare you downrate the op !


On-Topic

Not in, but my most painful moment would be the one saturday in February 2006. I got a call from my mother, and all she could say was "your dad is dying on the kitchen floor". I was 200 kilometers away and no car. After calling through my friends, only one of them agreed to pick me up and drive me home.

When nearing home, a hearse passed us by. Later that day, I found out that my father had asked my mother prior his heart attack, that why didn't I come home that weekend. It was the one weekend where I decided to stay with my GF.

I will never forgive this to myself.

And not in, but thanks for the giveaway.

Sometimes it helps to just talk about them. It did for me.
I... don't really want to share this. Sorry friends...

So, I'm not in, but thanks for the giveaway triock, and really sorry for your grandma.
Generally most painful moment for any (normal) human being is losing someone you loved very much.

You get no details from me, but here is one song that tells everything both in words and in melody:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rooqXaVQX8E

If my brother by nationality (I'm guessing you're nationality is the same like you're whereabouts, which is not the case for me) considers this enough to enter the competition I'm in for Planescape: Torment.
I'm sure your grandma had enough joy in her life for so many years and she's in a better place now, so don't mourn her to much, rather concentrate on joyful moments in your own life, that's what she would probably want.
Losing both my parents in a four-month period, when I was 30.

I'd post a link to Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata but I really gotta get outta here and go to work.

I'd like either of the Painkiller games.
...

It even feels bitter to enter for Planescape: Torment right now. Some things in life follow you wherever you go and you have to get used to their company, I guess.

Not in but thanks and +1 for the giveaway! I'm not one to talk about the most painful moments of my life, but losing someone close to you is always awful. Here's a sad song from one of my favorite musicians... he passed away earlier this year, which makes it all the more sad for me...

Songs:Ohia - The Black Crow

Not in, but thanks triock.
Talking about the things that torment me would only ease the impact that they have on me. And I need them to be potent to help me remain the man I am. Because of this I can't enter, but here's Johnny Cash's last song(yes it's a cover but he made it his own).

Thank you for the giveaway, triock. +1
