Today, my mother was watching me play Pokémon. She walked over to the TV and pulled the plug before ranting about how shameful it is that her 17 year old daughter plays Pokémon. She then sat down at the computer and started playing Farmville. FML

Hey guys, I'm the OP of this FML. I was playing XD- Gale of Darkness, one of my favourites. Alas there is no 'elite 4' as such in the Orre region, I was in the middle of catching a rare Wooper at a PokeSpot which I could have traded for an awesome Larvitar. Sigh. Rich world problems, I know. And yes, shock horror, I am a female that plays Pokemon, le gasp. And also I do play old-school Mario and stuff, I've been a Nintendo fangirl ever since I was little, occasionally migrating to other consoles to play things like Skyrim (No CoD for me though, thank you very much. Blegh.)

What game were you playing? Poke park 1 or 2? Is it fun?

At let's see... (Not hating on your opinion on FarmVille) -Some Pokémon games are portable, and not a single game needs wifi to play. -FarmVille is simply growing plants. You can do that in real life.

What an ass. Don't let her get to you, kid. I'm 25, work managing the insurance for a multi-billion dollar portfolio of real estate, married, having a baby next month, and you know what? I PLAY POKEMON. Been playing since it started, and never quit.

I met my boyfriend because I saw him playing pokemon, and we're going on two and and a half years, so just tell her it's something you could have in common with a lot of people, especially on a college campus.

Your the coolest girl ever. I have a friend who's a girl who says she's a pokemon expert even though she only watches the anime.
