In addition to DnD, MTG, and video games, Jordan also set me on a course to liking anime.
He showed me Trigun on DVD. That all sounds like ancient tech today. Prior to then, my association with anime was kid stuff, like Pokémon. But Jordan showed me Trigun, which heavily influenced me. I then watched Cowboy Bebop, which influenced me even more.
The exponential nature of our influences is hard to pin down, but for me it is easy. The mathletes kids didn’t shape my culture for shit. The military-academy-like martial arts people shaped my culture more. But Jordan, the random trailer park agent of chaos, that single chad, shaped my culture the most.
