You're on a diet too?

That's the good thing about food: if you eat enough, there's no room for guilt :D

I always saw Mirai Nikki as a trainwreck. Mind you, it was a completely entertaining trainwreck. I wouldn't call it good, not at all. Without spoilers, I thought the ending was awful and the main "plot twist" was predictable (saw it coming a mile away). It was pretty terrible, but damn was it a wild ride. It's something that I would recommend to someone simply because it's so crazy and it just doesn't stop. I give it points for having that sort of unique trait... of sorts.

Lyra will forever be my favorite yandere.

I love psychological horror, so Mirai Nikki's totally my thing. Yuno is freakin insane and her obesseion with Yuki is just...ugh, but she's also incredibly intelligent and has fucked so many characters over, and I like that about her. XD Yuki...I can tolerate the guy but man does he annoy the hell out of me sometimes.

Love Akise and Ninth.

The past week has been like that for me... good luck! I'm sure you'll pull through.

I get that feeling all the time. You poor thing, you've had such a rough week.

I'm wondering, is the computer you use your personal computer?

At least your mom didn't kick you out of the house in the middle of the night like mine did....

Oh gosh...well like you said, at least there wasn't any money in it. >:

EVERYONE! QUICK! GUESS WHAT UNFORTUNE WILL BEFALL OUR FRIEND NEXT! THEN, DUE TO GOD'S SENSE OF HUMOR/THE TROLLING LAWS OF THE UNIVERSE, THEY WILL NOT HAPPEN!!!

:( :( :(

@HumanDawn; I'm Blueberry Science :3 @Vesna; Thanks!! I followed you XDD

She goes "So? Are you trying to say you were doing the right thing by gaming and I should parade around my 24-year-old daughter is playing pokemon?"

Her daughter's a gamer. Nothing wrong with that, seriously. I'm a gamer in my 30's, and I have made friends with many adult gamers over the years in the real world as well as online, many of whom have played at least one Pokemon game over the years. True story.

From: The Entertainment Software Association - Game Player Data (This is from the ESA (Entertainment Software Association), the group that owns and runs E3, as well as the group that founded the ESRB (Entertainment Software Ratings Board). Can't get more legit than this.)

Forty-seven percent of all players are women, and women over 18 years of age are one of the industry's fastest growing demographics.

This uses older data, but shows statistics for the UK as well as the US. What is an Average Gamer? - The Average Gamer

An "improper" game targeted partly at children is probably more entertaining and higher-quality than whatever crap she likes.

Shit like this is why us Americans are nationalist assholes sometimes.

UGHH, really? You're only about a year younger than me! I know how it feels. It does suck when your parents keep you on a short leash at this age. I know my mother makes unrealistic demands for me to contact her at least once a day when I'm away from home and is terrified of me driving late at night (even though I've done it many times and survived).

She calls my geeky interests "stupid cartoon stuff" and is pretty much an old timer who doesn't understand too much about nerd pop culture. I tell her it's part of my identity and it helps me make friends with likeminded people. (because I've been heavily encouraged to make friends for years thanks to my social awkwardness from Aspergers) I think that's why she lets that slide a little.

Seriously, though, tell her that there are people much older than you who play the Pokemon games and love it. Also, if you get the game back, tuck it away in your bedroom and play after you go to bed. (I've done that many times, and it helps me fall asleep faster too.)

Excuse me for the language I'm about to use...

*ahem* THAT BITCH. I can't ever think of a time when my parents tried to take something that I extremely loved away from me. Whenever I got into some sort of fandom that they didn't really expect for me to like *coughMyLittlePonycough* I thought they would hate me because I was supposedly too old for it. Turns out, they really just didn't care and they just went along with it. But seriously, Pokemon was actually a REALLY good thing for me. When I was a lonely anti-social recluse about two years ago, I met some other Pokemon fans and I eventually grew to like them for more than our similar interests.

Also, you're Twenty fucking Four. You're a fucking adult, tell her that. It's your decision, its not like one game will make your life go completely downhill.

I'm so sorry to hear about that. Your Mom sounds pretty rude, especially with telling you to be ashamed for playing these games. She shouldn't have a problem with your hobbies as long as it isn't hurting anyone. There are people even older who plays the games and it isn't a problem. While my parents haven't have a problem with the fact that I play Pokemon, I have had experienced with people telling me that I should be ashamed of doing it and telling me that I should give it up, so I can understand how frustrating you must feel. I hope that it works out and you're able to get your game back.

What a horrible thing for her to do! Obviously you didn't do anything wrong, so she has no right to take away your game. You are right and she is wrong. It makes me sad that some parents are this mean. My mom would never take away something that meant so much to me.

When you live on your own, you don't ever have to speak to her again.

No one should be told what they like or should be like... I know exactly how you feel... :/
