Possibilities: Shadowrun 4 (my first non d&d-like)Intro: D&D Basic Edition. Breathe softly, children, lest I crumble to dust
Fall in love: Call Of Cthulhu.
Happy memories of standing on the balcony of a burning mansion in the Mississippi Delta c. 1930 remarking to a colleague that the tommy gun fire in the distance had stopped. "How are we going to know who's won?" I pondered aloud.
"Hell, that's easy," he said, flicking his cigar stub into the darkness. "We listen for the winner coming back, and if it's knocking down trees it ain't our boy"Possibilities: 13th Age, where I ran a one-shot with a bunch of strangers at a Con. Ended in an interpretative dance-off and I could not have been happier with it.

@SJohnRoss Oh, I remember the first time I played Paranoia at my then Local shop's one shot night that rotated games.
Our group leaned perhaps a bit more into the Zap style than I might run these days, but it was so much fun.

@Hedgewizard Call of Cthulhu is one I enjoyed flipping through but have yet to get it to the table.
I ran a session of 13th Age for my group during the playtest and now I really want to get 2e going with them since I have my new books
