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.

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.

At the same way nobody cares that you watch game of thrones. People that do not watch it don't go around talking about it, unlike people who watch it that constantly have to remind everyone about it.

"Did you see GoT? OMG, Did you see GoT! YOu have to have seen GoT! GoT! Huh, what about GoT! What did you think, huh! GoT is so cool! Did you see GoT?" "I don't watch GoT." "Nobody cares!!!!"

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.

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.

Meh. I'm not proud that I don't watch it.....I don't watch it because (a) I'm too much of a cheap a*s to get HBO and (b) I'm ridiculously sensitive to rape and torture scenes -- of which I hear there are many. So, I don't watch it. Do I get tired of all the hype? Sometimes.....but mostly I enjoy looking at the memes and I kind of feel like I'm watching a PG version of it by reading them. :p

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 ...

It's like Love Island. I spend my whole time trying to avoid the inevitable conversations of who shagged who, what happened next, etc. It's EVERYWHERE and you know what? It gets tedious. And I find myself shut out of conversations and treated like a pariah for not watching it, with comments like "How can you NOT watch it?" and "What is WRONG with you?" These people even did a group chat at work so they could harp on about it. And not content with that, they have the gall to call out those who don't watch it as attention-seekers. No, we're just bored of the hysteria around it and are trying to change the subject.

The ironic thing is that many of the nonwatchers’ responses to these so-called “roasts” are better than the “roasts”. Just goes to show how how unaware GOT fans are to their own inability to STFU about GOT while being exquisitely sensitive to any comments made by people who are tired of hearing about this show nonstop. “OMG, what did you think about Game of Thrones last night?!?!?!” “I don’t watch it.” “WHAT?!?!? HOW CAN YOU NOT WATCH GAME OF THRONES?!?!? IT’S THE BEST SHOW EVARRRRR!!!!!” [proceeds to frantically try to recap the entire series to uninterested person]

My brother tried to get me into Game of Thrones, but I'm not into series that revolve around death. I'm almost painfully empathetic, and they make me feel horrible. I tried reading the first book. Couldn't get past the first few chapters... The wife of some dude being all; OH GOD, I HOPE HIS SEED TAKES HOLD IN ME was... uh, wtf. But the completely unnecessary detail about how they anointed the genitals of a 13-year old CHILD as she was about to be married off, and how her brother wanted to sleep with her... GROSS. That right there told me everything I needed to know about the author to stay well away from that series. On top of all the death. And rape and torture scenes. But, hey, those who enjoy it, knock yourselves out, find joy in it. To each their own. Just maybe understand where I'm coming from when I say I don't like it and kinda wish the hype would die down a bit?

I don't get it. So, when people around me talk a lot about something and suddenly they all turn to stare at me - it's clearly expected I have to say something. I'm forced to say something and I reply I genuinely dislike it, I don't give a damn, know nothing bout it - so, I am the asshole to be honest? How is this a thing?

Some people make a conversation that contains targayen, khal drogo, jon snow etc. to make them look cool and up to date. Of course I have to google it to know what they were talked about lol. But then I watched a program called "GoT: stories so far", still not interested to watch the series though. It is full of disturbing scene presented by mentally ill characters. But I don't announce myself as a non-watcher because I don't see the importance. Like many of fans said here: nobody cares.

People are allowed to have different interests. If someone watches GoT and you don't, there's no reason to tell them unless they ask. However, criticizing someone for voicing their opinion isn't wise either; Don't critizice people for telling you they're not interested or haven't tried something you like. People should be able to voice their opinion without feeling like they are stepping on eggshells.

I like to play video games, read books, or go out and things with friends/family, and watch TV/Movies. As a result I only have a couple hours a week free to watch TV... and with an endless number of interesting shows out there, it is impossible to watch all of them, or even a fraction of them. GOT isn't on the list. Not because I have a problem with it. I don't think I'm special for not seeing it... it likely on the "top 5% of shows that would interest me"... but considering there are so many shows available now, the top 5% is still dozens upon dozens of titles. But, in appreciation of this actual thread, I have never actually made a point of telling anyone that I don't watch the show (until now with this post)
