What do you say when someone says you're too old for Pokemon?

my school is a hellhole where if you dont do wut the popular kids do EVERYONE will mock you. its hard not to care though, because it is EVERYONE. 2maro im wearing a pokemon t shirt with a snivy on it that says "haters gonna HATE" because that's my response to them. (im not kidding about the t shirt)
 
i have been told but it is what you think is what matters if you enjoy it then play it if it is your friends tell them this is what i enjoy and they should respect that

I shut my eyes tight and do a big fake sneeze right in their face and wipe my nose making more noise than necessary from sniffling. Then I apologize to them by saying, "Ah I'm sorry, I'm allergic to bull****..."

^^ LMAO!!!


Honestly though, I don't really give a rat's *** what people say or think. I usually say something along the lines of:

"And?.. Its better than that lame stuff your into."

"Yes and proud of it!"

"Hey, how about you go screw yourself and your opinions." ...*grins*

"Keep on criticizing me and I will go buy a Pikachu hoodie with the pointy ears and wear it EVERYTIME I hang out with you, in PUBLIC! And you better not act like you don't know me otherwise I'll shout out your name while talking in pikachu!" ...My friend knew I was dead serious.
 
I insult call of duty because it pisses them off.
 
I say: Well, I dunno what's more childish, playing something that makes you happy, or *****ing about being "too old" for something.

You are next.
I will start telling them about the complicated mathematical game mechanics despite I don't play THAT hardcore.

"Well, can your dog help you defeat a team of intergalactic gangsters?"

.....No? I didn't think so.
 
i say: 'i guess, i am...' and wet myself like the little six year old girl i am.

on a more serious note, i never have had anyone told me i was, and if they did, it's not like they'd be wrong. but it's not like i would stop playing just because of that, they're just merely stating something that's pretty much true and known, nothing more.

Everyone I know who knows I play the games has no issue with it. If anyone cared that much then I'd just tell them to get a life anyways.

My friends do know I play Pokèmon, so I don't care.
If someone else says me "Pokèmon is for kids" or stuff like that, I say them "Doing your business never gets old, huh?"
