I didn't know Pokemon cards were still a thing.

My son was into pokemon cards for a bit when he was 7 or 8.
For me, pokemon became a thing later in my teens, and it was just seen as a weird thing Asian kids did that wasn't sports, so it was utterly lame. If you even said "pokemon" and you weren't Asian it was highly likely you were about to get stuffed in a locker after having NERD written on your forehead in sharpie.
I swear, everybody was bullied to some extent in those days.
