Anons, I want to get my passion for running games back. Recommend me something to run that will be easy to prep and is exciting.

steal the story from a book/film/game
modify it to fit the rules of your preferred system (ideally something where you can do stats ad-hoc instead of manually making statblocks)
wallahi you have a mainstay campaign for 2 years

Mythic Bastionland. Just jump in blind, its great. I've heard good things about Mothership but haven't played or run it myself.

This kind of thing usually works so its good advice. Even better if you use a story that is at odds with the system (like a Reservoir Dogs campaign in D&D or Kingsman in VtM)

Stars Without Number and let the tables do the thinking. Do it like Star Trek and have the planet of the week.

Pick a good campaign. I am fond of Age of Worms and Savage Tide.

pre-made modules and campaigns./spoiler]
WFRP Enemy Within is pretty solid. Most of WHRP's are pretty solid, actually.

Should be noted that if the story has any moment where the main character(s) need to take a specific action, you can expect the players to not do that.
I played a Modern Warfare inspired campaign, and only one of us (not me) even noticed. We all found out after we had irreparably changed the story because there wasn't any invisible walls or invincible characters like in the original game.

But what if Risus doesn't excite him?
He asked for something that is exciting, and when people ask things like that, they mean whatever's subject to their own tastes.

My first word of advice would be to get the fuck off of /tg/ or you will have any desire you have to play games gradually abraded off of you by the nonstop onslaught of two digit IQ takes and cynical loosh harvesting. Run, and consult only yourself and those you know and trust.

Risus isn't a game, though, it's a narrative aid (and not a great one at that, because it doesn't include methods of keeping internal consistency of character, plot, and story).
