Meh, this is one of those "I'm so misunderstood for liking pokemon" threads, reminds me of the NSider forums *shudders*
But as long as people are into it I suppose I should post as well.
I'm in the "nerd" social class at my school. I'd like to say that I'm a fair amount cooler than my friends.. ;p Anyway, I have a friend named Andrew and I was talking to him about Netbattle. That day he started shouting out "CT LIKES POKEMON" and etc. which isn't really cool on account of the only reason he does it is because he's self concious and thinks that making me look bad will look good and it doesnt.
Thats my rant ._.;;
Haha, yea your friend's really insecure. It's a shame people have to deal with classes, which is why I never judge people. But if I had to say, I'd probably say I'm in the middle-upper, if you get what that would mean anyway. I can't stand some of the "popular kids", but most of them I don't mind talking to. (I'm sure most of you don't believe me, check out my Myspace if you like. My girlfriend's Myspace is that one that say "Psst Icky Charlie!" In all caps I think, but I can't remember.
As to the post about "afraid of losing your friends", no with my case that isn't the problem. I just don't feel like dealing with gettin' the **** for it, lol. My friend supposedly did something... gross to a jar of peanut butter, so now me and my neighborhood give him all kinds of **** for it, even though we dunno he did lol. It's not like we're gunna disown him, he's still a cool kid. A real friend would never disown you for liking pokemon, they'd either admit they do, or make fun of you
(nicer than saying "oh... yea ok..." that makes you feel dumb)
And about the "I'm misunderstood" post, read the topic again dude, you have no idea what you're talking about. This thread is based on fact, it is fact that some of America does have an undying, unconditional love for Pokemon for some reason. Some people don't know that, and that's why they post these threads sometimes.
Oh lord, Pokemon from the devil? Good lord. You Chrisitians... Good lord, people are much more satanic than divine these days. "Pokemon is from the devil"... Slap your entire family for me dude. I may be half Jewish and half chrisitian by blood, but I'm full Agnostic (That just means I have my own beliefs).
To RJ Fighter, those guys are messed up. We don't have that **** at our school, and when I do see it I don't go running for a teacher, but I'm always willing for a fight. Most people hwo make fun of others are much smaller, so they always back down, little punks, hate 'em all. Remember it isn't society, not everyone's the same.
To the dude with the twin bro, we're in the same boat, 'sept my brother's 2 years younger. He'll never cry over a game, I'd kill him, but he loves pokemon and we both hide it from being publically displayed to much.
Gah my posts are getting long and painful. Sorry about that everyone.
For a final note, everyone just needs to stay strong. Don't listen to that "stay with what you believe in!" Rubbish, have an open mind, and maybe others will follow. People normally shut pokemon out, and whoever might like it out, also. Just like Japanese anime (I.E. Inu Yasha.) I'm not much of a fan of that, though I'm tolerable of InuYasha, and the only time I've missed a Fullmetal Alchesist epsisode was when my girlfriend was over really late. (Yea, took her home at 1:30, just missed it
).
