Generation III

Today, I went on a date with a very cute girl. It went well, until I accidentally called the blueberries in her dessert Oran Berries. I sheepishly explained that they're a berry from the Pokémon universe, at which point she excused herself, never to return. FML

If she doesn't respect pokémon she doesn't deserve respect.

You're better off this way. You need someone who can appreciate Pokemon!

Why would anyone say YDI? I could care less if someone hated Pokemon, everyone has their tastes, but be based on the grounds to suddenly leave a date is ridiculous. it's not like OP said, "do you like German food? Heil Hitler!"

I'd say you dodged a bullet, man. Good for you!

Blue berries do look like oran berries though

Im so sick of girls expecting guys to be OMG! MR PERFECT! and then get bitchy if he likes pokemon or annything else. When I (finally) get a boyfried, I will respect for who he is. This is not just beacuse I like pokemon btw.

You are hurt because of a girl? Mewtwo.

I like Pokemon as much as the next person-pushing-30-years-old, but I'm with a previous commenter - if you're old enough to date, you're old enough to remember what a blueberry is. If I were to go out for Chinese, I would expect the person I was with to lower their opinion of me if I managed to accidentally refer to chopsticks as 'knitting needles'; Pokemon shouldn't be any different.

Firefly is my reference point, not that the girl has to be a fan necessarily but that they at least accept my nerdness/fandom over the series... but I get you. It ain't a FYL or a YDI, you just went on a date with a girl who didn't like who you were. You dodged a bullet and she gets to go be herself with someone else who doesn't like pokemon. Essentially a win-win.

Gotta be my favorite TV series. Stupid people that canceled it need to be put down.
