This time is the time of Game of Thrones, as hundreds of tweets, memes, and excited fans' reactions show. One simply cannot deny the global influence the Thrones phenomenon has, especially with the final season of the HBO series is rolling out every weekend. And while perhaps the fandom that dominates the social media sites after every Sunday might seem annoying to some, there is only one thing more irritating than someone being overtly passionate about something they like. It's the people who are overtly proud of something they dislike.
As hundreds of posts about Game of Thrones roll out daily in every corner of social media, more and more people boast about not watching the popular show in the comments. Perhaps thinking that it makes them special, those people wear that fact like a badge of honor. And while there are some who approve of their message, the TV series fans find it more or less irritating. That's why sooner or later they expressed their feelings on Twitter, banding together with their funny roasts to say what they really think.
Scroll down below to see what they had to say and the best roasts they've delivered, and don't forget to tell us what you think whether you are a Game of Thrones fan or not.

Liking popular things doesn't make you an interesting person.
I don't get this one. Whenever someone asks if I watch GOT, I say no. They then get defensive and I really don't understand why. I do not care what tv shows give you pleasure. I am just happy you are happy. Weird.
Ummm, yes but - it's all in the way you phrase your statement about not knowing or watching said topic.
Sometimes, you just don't watch GOT, not because you want the other peoples to know, but simply because you don't watch it, that's all.
Am I the only one who thinks the question mark looks weird? Just me...?
I only watched one scene that had Emilia Clarke in it. I think you know which one
A lot of people also tell me often that they watch GOT and that's why they are superior to others.
watching something, or not watching it doesn't make you any better or any worse than anyone else
I haven't watched game of thrones but I don't go around saying I hate it. Those people just want attention and it's pretty obvious
*deep breath* I DON’T WATCH GAME OF THRONES!!! *echo* WATCH GAME OF THRONES
The GoT crowd are the new SJW's, dictating everyone that they MUST watch.
I read them and watched most of the episodes (I haven't seen the last 2 seasons) and honestly I don't think it's for everyone. I have friends who just don't do the magic, dragon, mid-evil thing and ya know what.....it's ok I don't understand this whole "You have to do something because I do it" thing that we are so obsessed with as a society right now. The best part about people is that they are all different.
Load More Replies...I have never watched GOT and have never bragged about it. Didn’t know this was a thing till this thread.
uhhhhh... Not to break the knowingness, but.... What's game of thrones?
I learend what game of thrones is by someone who couldn't shut up about it though.
True, true. Quit watching GoT and you'll find time to do interesting things, to meet interesting people and to develop an interesing personality.
Brother Jayden, We must be accepting of all of Mankind regardless of their viewing habits.

You're. Sorry, I have to be that guy, it's in my blood
Load More Replies...this person's mouth is so big you could drive an 18wheeler through it quite comfortably
the original meme was Principal Skinner from the Simpsons asking "am I out of touch?" then reassuring himself "no, it's the children who are wrong"
Load More Replies...I have just a tiny little feeling that you're one of those people who reads these just so that you can comment rudely
Load More Replies...I care about you! You have a Rainwing profile picture, and I am obsesed with it.
Load More Replies...Oh, good thing I don't go around telling everyone how I DO watch Game of Thrones, and therefore I am morally superior. The people upset about these posts are the same people who go on about "white lives matter", completely missing the point.
And without bragging that they do watch it.
Load More Replies...I don't watch Game of Thrones but I don't mind if people do. The only reason I don't is because I've heard that lots of characters die and I'm a sucker for fictional deaths.
or we could stop shaming people for not watching a show they don't like and we could stop shaming people for liking a show
I’ve never seen GoT, I just don’t have the time, but seriously? Nobody asked ya! Maybe if they said ‘hey do you like GoT?’
Stop criticising people for making small talk, you could've been talking about GOT in general, and then they just said it. They didn't necessarily WANT or NEED to tell you. You could've provoked it.
thank you for actually describing the pic
Load More Replies...i know this guy for some reason I know him he be a mad man he is popo butter but
And do you have to make sure I know you watch it? K..... @_@
omg you millennials are pathetic. its an old chris rock skit hes saying " whatchu want a cookie!"
Literally, I don't watch it, but I agree with all of these so. Fricking. Much.
How does no one in this thread realize the only reason someone tells you they don't watch, is bc they don't know what you're talking about & you just assume they do
Most people have never watched a single episode of Game of Thrones. (Even only 14 million people out of 320 Americans watched the finale.) You can imagine how sick we are of you. I don't watch it is probably most people's polite way of saying, "For the love of God, shut the hell up about that stupid TV show!!!!"
I only managed to get past four episodes and gave up. It got so boring
dude this is an article about people telling the world they don't watch GOT and u still feel the need to do it. Really? :/
Load More Replies...So it is okay for people and the media to talk about it nonstop but if anyone says they don't watch it and don't care they are the problem and boring?
Here's the thing, it's FINE to not watch it, no one is going to kill you as a result, but the people who like to brag that they don't do a trendy thing get on everyone's nerves most of the time.
Load More Replies...Funny how media & internet can s**t their self over a new game of thrones season but when someone says the don't watch it you get this???
Exactly. I watched one season but had read the books and got bored (always knowing what was going to happen). I do not tell people I don't/didn't watch it unless they ask - ( or there is a ridiculous BP post). The reaction is always over the top!! So weird.
Load More Replies...My co-worker asked me if i watch game of thrones and i answered no and she overreacted how could i not watch the show.
Sounds much more like reality (and that's me saig it as a former watcher)
Load More Replies...Yes, why do we have to be divided because of a TV series? It's not like we are better or worse if we watch or don't watch GoT.
Load More Replies...I feel like the complete opposite is true. People who watch GoT feel some type of way.
the people who watch GOT think they are so illumiunated, like they know the secret meaning of life now XD aahahahah get a grip with reality please... who in their right mind is going to take seriously a show about dragons whose mother is a hot blond chick? please give me more methaporas how got is just as accurate as the real life XD
Load More Replies...No, I never saw it either. Didn't interest me. But I can't say that hey because the ones who watch react like I'm an a*****e.
Load More Replies...Looks like we're reaching a society where everyone's supposed to be taking sides. If you're not Pro-GoT you must be against it. And it's annoying as hell. There are things where I would die for, but there are also things that are so insignificant that it's not even worth thinking about. Watching tv-series is one of them.
I don't mind if you don't watch "Game of Thrones" ... there are a lot of popular shows that I skip out on, too ... I will simply say I don't watch them without having to preface it with "am I the only one that doesn't watch [insert popular show that others think I should be watching]" ... simply saying you don't watch is no reason for ridicule ... acting like you're a unicorn is reason enough ...
