Imagine telling your son to stfu during what could have been a bonding moment to take a phone call from fucking Donald Trump who will complain about sharks and black people for half an hour. lol, lmao.

Under no circumstances do you have to hand it to them etc but fr sometimes you need the 7 year old to shut up about Pikachu

unlimited 7 year olds talking about pikachu on the first world

Pokémon go to your room

[-] [email protected] 46 points 1 year ago

in my experience if you let the 7-year-old infodump about Pikachu for as long as they want at least once, you will be immediately become their favorite uncle and possibly favorite person

the percentage of adults that treat children like people is sadly very low

It was very funny when his younger brother tried chiming into the screed and was immediately shushed because he still had much to say.

There’s lots of healthy and affirming ways to get a 7 year old to shut up about Pikachu. Redirection is just a skill that parents need to practice. And apparently Vance has a major skill issue.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Yeah there are way cooler Pokémon, like 10% Zygarde, or Corvisquire, or Lombre, or Lumineon, or Alomomola, or Simisage, or Wugtrio

[-] [email protected] 66 points 1 year ago

Imagining that Trump on the other end just discovered Pokémon and is also infodumping about Pikachu to Vance

trump-anguish shocked-pikachu

spoilerI just had a perfect phone call with Pikachu! Great guy. Some people are saying he likes ketchup very strongly, possibly even more than me. And we like that! We like that. Great work ethic though. They're doing thunderbolt! People say, "oh but what about volt tackle?" and I tell them it's a pretty good move too, but you just can't beat the classic thunderbolt. Who knows, Pikachu might be our next Secretary of Energy. Frankly, he has as good qualifications as Rick Scott did, and nobody knows electricity like Pikachu, I will say that. But Raichu has been treated very unfairly for many years, and it's sad. They went to Aloha or whatever and taught him how to surf, but I said "well what the hell, Pikachu does surfing since the little minigame in the Yellow! Just give Pikachu the light ball, who needs the new Raichu!" But we are doing great things with electric, I will say that.

one more Trump talking about Pikachu shitpost I feel compelled to get out

spoilertrump-anguish bojo shocked-pikachu

I went to Galar to meet with the great Boris Johnson for a tremendous meeting and he showed me this incredible thing, they're calling it gigantamaxing. You know what this is? They go bing bing bong on the dynamax band and then, wow, let me tell you! I saw Pikachu do the gigantimax, I turned to Boris, I said WOW, what a big guy! But they were very unfair to Boris over Galarexit, very unfair.
