Fighting Back.
I rarely post to Facebook, and my first post to Imgur, but my feed is just a bunch of people hating on Pokemon Go, so I finally fought back. Just to clarify my second comment, my sister, Brandi, hates when people form opinions of politics when they only get their information on the topic from Biased websites and Facebook posts. Which is where she undoubtedly got her information about Pokemon Go from.
JohnnyricoMC
Your sister is a bimbo OP. Then again, with a stripper name like "Brandi"... 'twas to be expected.
MrsVond
My friends and I stumbled upon another car with PokemonGo players and both groups couldn't help but laugh. This game is amazing.
SendMeNoots
Ah yes, "lol tl;dr", the response of a person truly out of their depth. Sorry OP, but your sister is a bit of a cunt.

spineraker
"I'm not even gonna read that you put too much time into it." is the single most INFURIATING comment to respond to someone...UGH!
sirprufrock
And here I am just bored of the game after being super entertained for a few days.
lookingforapurpose
I haven't met anyone willing to speak to me while playing Pokémon go. I think mine's is broken.
DABAFF
Her response actually means "I'm gonna act as if I don't care but I CARE IMMENSELY and I don't want to look like an idiot, so I'll do that
TheWeezerCastle
Dude, sorry but your sister is kind of a bitch.
FernandoRumdebum
Your sis seems a it of a dick

I always get pissed with people saying "i am not going to read that" that text do not take long to read. And i do not even play
joraemi
damn the ignorance is strong in that one
Irishda
I agree. Not sure why this person thinks not having Pokemon Go means you'll be stuck inside all day not talking to people
JustinBoz
"I'm not even gonna read that you put too much time into it." Sadly, I've had that same thing said to me by my sisters on FB and /2
JustinBoz
Their friends. There probably isn't a better way for them to sun up their lack of thinking skills and close-minded attitudes. It's sad. /fin
JustinBoz
Sum, not sun. My mind was clouded by idiocy.

What a fucking dolt. I've made friends with people in my work plaza I would have never spoken to otherwise haha
isthistaken2
+1 for the use of "dolt" not used enough
WookieWookieWookie
I just talked to my first other player yesterday by a gym, but I'm naturally distrustful of others and I was scared he was gonna mug me.
lyingsmile15
Give it time, friend. :) Every new friend starts with a careful conversation. And you don't have to talk a long time if you don't want to.
Dickslover
Just be wary of your surroundings - I only converse in open areas if the sun is out. (I also carry a knife and pepper spray in my bag)
DireSickFish
It's not super clever and it's PoGo so I don't think it'll make FP. But good on you for standing up for what you believe in, and writing wel
Euclid271
I don't say this lightly, but your sister is a real cunt.

Sorry mate but your sis is a cunt

How bout just an asshole? She's not as awful as other people who do dumb or mean things

Don't be sorry, it's the truth. Ignorance at its finest.

WookieWookieWookie
She has a kid so it's already happened.
Harvtorro
This should seriously get to the front page. I've seen so much hate for Pokemon go, you made really good points and were very mature +1
Irishda
Probably because us outdoorsy types hate listening to people act like the only reason to go outside and have adventure is to catch Pokemon.
therealgrennhald
So many other hobbies accomplish the same things, but so many of the Go fans act like this has never been done before...
WookieWookieWookie
My coworkers are ragging on me for taking about it with someone else who's playing. I told them I've had to listen to their sports bs for
WookieWookieWookie
3 years. They don't seem to get that sports are also an inherently worthless game that only had merit because you're interested in it.
therealgrennhald
Unfortunately I've seen some terribly immature posts here defending the game too. Good on op though.
Irishda
Even this one. So the fuck what if a mom decides not to let her kids play a fucking video game that its own players say is addicting
BlankhasdiedofDysentery
She sounds like the type that thinks vaccines are bad because she heard they put poisonous aluminium in them.
itsybitsyspider
Or "disney is confirmed to be associated with Satan"
FuzzyManPeach09
She is actually one of the smartest people I know. Technology and games just aren't her strong suit, and she is stubborn. Also pro-vaccine.
WordsUnknown
I pray she does't put her kid in the dark ages, causing them to be far enough behind in technology where it will forever hurt him.
vnqx
I had to read more of this post than I wanted because I was confused as fuck at the start......who names their kid "Orin"?
itsybitsyspider
I dated a guy named Orin. We were 14. It lasted 6 months.

itsybitsyspider
No, i broke up because he was a douche
sbrtueygtphd
i was confused at first. I thought what the heck is an orin?
Harvtorro
"Im not even gonna read that you put too much time into it" *aka I have no valid argument.
istanbulnotokc
When someone uses that retort, I assume they wear shoes on their head and believe hamburgers eat people.
tentaclefriendly
Yeah, that. Makes me want to stab her in the face strategically, so nobody will ever forget: she's Brandi with an Eye.
PatrioticMexamerican
Her reaction, "Stop derailing my arguments with facts and examples!"

he wrote it in like 5 minutes? what the shit?
noctynight
Oh I thought the translation was "I do not have the brain capacity for a civil argument. Please try again never."
snuffcarcass
I read "I'm a self-righteous bag of crap and my opinions are impervious to reason because I'm always right"
PolaroidPuffin
That's her way of saying "I read it and you're right, but I don't want to look dumb"
ImNotCryingImChoppingOnions
tbh, her answer makes her look more stupid than if she just went "sorry" or "you're right" or something just as textbook.
PuellaSilentii
Which still made her look dumb.
foxfire1112
people on here say tldr all the time so...
textilelover
but this is specifically an image hosting site. FB is *supposed* to be where people share opinions and chat...and look at pics too.

When people do a TL:DR here it's usually a summary of what was said for the lazy.

Oh
PascalsBookie
i was like, tl;dr. and then she said that, and i felt bad. i still didn't read it. but, i don't have a dog in this fight.
keyblader1985
The difference between you and her though is that you didn't make a dumbass, offensive accusation and give up instead of defending it.
PascalsBookie
i try as needed. this pokemon stuff is a mystery to me, but i am not threatened by people having fun with something of which i know nothing
EducatedKitten
I despise when people "TLDR". If you don't give enough of a shit to read their full opinion, why should anyone care what YOUR opinion is?
craftinscrap
spot on. I see ppl that say "TLDR" as lazy, semi-illiterate, attention whores that are basically saying I don't fuck about what you wrote.
HistoricalContext
Sometimes people write an essay about something completely stupid. I TL;DR those simply to mock them.
itsybitsyspider
There is no converting her. She's made up her mind. I feel sorry for your nephew.
AquaCrusher
Ya fuk that dum itch inya
Nccoffee
Also it would appear she's team valor...
Howdoilife
When logic and reason fail because people don't care. Hopefully whatever she does for a living doesn't involve teaching anything ever.
NeoHelios
Feel sorry for her bc the nephew will find a way to enjoy it somehow. A friend could let him borrow the phone for a sec. She is powerless.
WookieWookieWookie
Why would you feel sorry for her?
elShiz
Buy nephew a tablet and make sure he hides it or have him come over more to spend time with his awesome uncle and then go Go'ing together
EYYYBOOBOO
Translation of her last comment: "Wow, he wrote enough that it may be well thought out and persuasive. TLDR"
EverythingISeeIsAJojosReference
Also punch your nephew's mum in the cunt for me.
thisisnottheusernameurlookingfor
Brandi with an I. What did you expect
fuckpowerlevelsfucksupersaiyansandfuckyou
Based on prior experience, pregnancy at sixteen followed by gaining 50 pounds and losing as many teeth
Irishda
I feel sorry how heavily people feel the need to defend Pokemon. She's not wrong about one thing (1)
Irishda
Getting exercise and meeting new friends used to be called getting exercise and meeting new friends (2)
WhoEvenCaresAboutNames
Funny, when I was little I went out and made new friends because we were all PRETENDING TO CATCH POKEMON, now I go out and make friends 1/2
WhoEvenCaresAboutNames
because we are all catching pokemon and everyone is having a gay ol time 2/2
Irishda
There's more to this world than a fictional universe created solely to sell toys
WhoEvenCaresAboutNames
You are only judging PoGo because "lol its on a phone" even though its providing the same social aspects that happen when people get 1/2
WhoEvenCaresAboutNames
Sure but the point is either way people are going out and meeting new people. You dont have to feel mighty just because you did it 1/2
Aquatomahawk
I bet she's antivax too
cptkipard
Why? Do you want her to be?
thecactusfucker
No, it's just that different sorts of stupid tend to trickle into the same ditch.
cptkipard
So the answer is yes, you need her to be, because it's convenient.
thecactusfucker
Ha, you're the sanctimonious asshole on the post of the dude decking the guy who kicked his kid. I'm glad you're not just sometimes a cunt.
NuclearChimichangas
I bet she vapes too.
RavennaMagnus
I bet she is on a trendy diet too.
veight7
No need, she's vegan
Aquatomahawk
No gluten for her
Sanosky
I bet she uhh*sweats nervously*...tacos, yeah tacos
RavennaMagnus
Where are the tacos? I want tacos!
BaldurDash
''Lol I'm not even gonna read that.'' Stupid people being proud of being and staying stupid in the face of knowledge. Why. The. Fuck.
DiggerPlease
Yeah that's the worst part of this exchange, I don't even play this game and that response seemed completely unfair to me.
Krympehl
I didn't read it either. I still downvote pokego... I went cycling last night while doing... activities. Yes.
WookieWookieWookie
I don't think you know how ellipses are supposed to be...used.
ProjectKurtz
If my sister said something that fucking ignorant, I would slap her in the face the next time I saw her. I expect better.

There's still some hope for the kid though. He may grow up and realize what a fuckwit his mother is and decide not to dot hat.

Adato88
She has a point, if you need a game to get you to go outdoors you have some issues, but maybe this game helps address them?

EClaire1073
You shouldn't be in a tech field.
whitter86
Yeah I'm trying to get out of it.
foxfire1112
See i COMPLETELY agree with this. The game will end, I hope the lazy people will have a new found love for exercise
Newthoenikker
In like a month tops, the fad will fade. The experiment will end and people will continue to be lazy.
EClaire1073
Humans have a natural urge to collect things, especially things like Pokémon. It might die down a little, but it's not ending any time soon
UsernameCanComeLater
You could easily say "Ugh, you need to play a GAME like basketball to encourage you to exercise? You clearly have some issues." And...(1)
UsernameCanComeLater
...that would sound silly, wouldn't it? Of COURSE there should be something fun outside to make kids or anyone want to play outside. (2)
whitter86
Yeah and the whole, "calling people out" on Facebook is stupid. Seriously the only thing you are doing is getting on their level.
WhatDeanerWasTalkingAbout
there are very few sports that don't fit this description. that's like... all of athletics.
Adato88
Not sure what you are getting at here, could read either way, but Sorry Pokemon is not a sport. Most athletes spend time outside...
WhatDeanerWasTalkingAbout
her premise can be used verbatim to described many socially acceptable, normal, healthy activities, and i disagree with her logic.
Adato88
Right, I get where you are coming from, but if you are a teen/adult and only being sociable due to this game you have issues, (1/2)
Adato88
Your argument using athletes is a bad choice, a digital game compared to an active lifestyle, possible career... Come on,
kookyabird
I spend most of my time indoors working on my skills and I prefer to not go outside. Do I have some issues as well?
CliftonSantiago
When you say it like that I imagine your skills are throwing stars, ninja swords, computer hacking, magick, wearing trenchcoats, etc.
kookyabird
Software/game development, music, painting, lots of stuff.
Adato88
What skills are you working on? Also depends on age? staying indoors most of the time is not healthy, we need fresh air and sun.
kookyabird
I get more than enough sun exposure for vitamin D, and I refresh the air in my apartment regularly.
whitter86
Yes spending most of your time inside is not healthy. You need sun exposure. Your body requires it.
kookyabird
I get more than enough sun in a week to get my vitamin D. I burn super easily though, which is my main reason for not being outside more.
whitter86
