If you don't know, Borders was a bookstore that also sold comic books, manga, and DVDs (sometimes obscure DVDs). They shut down operations 10 years ago or so.
I have many good memories of this store. I used to spend hours browsing books there and they emailed 40% coupons so you could get new books and DVDs for cheap. Yes, there is still Barnes and Noble but it's not the same. I liked the atmosphere of Borders better; there was one I liked with a huge fountain at front. I miss that place. Also, I don't like used bookstores. They smell strange and have a depressing mood to them.
I also hate the death of physical media. ebook readers are lame and don't have the tactile aspect of real books.
Probably no one can relate to this but sometimes I just want to go to Borders again until I'm reminded it no longer exists.
