Pokemon GO

[mamooth]

Well, dang. Looks like I'll have to update my ancient iphone. It won't run on an iphone 4S.

I'll put it off until September. When a new iphone model comes out, prices drop on the older models.

another thing to distract us from "real life" ... great ....

Other than the Pokemon label, is this any different from geocaching?

I hate Pokemon. I always have. I just find it annoying for some reason.

I didn't care but the kids loved them. I liked Charmander.

For some kids this game will be the first time they've been outside in years

That's what I am saying.
This kid was, I would guess...23-25 years old. Scraggly hair, unkempt bushy beard, wearing an old yellow tshirt 2 sizes too big...baggy green shorts with 10,000 wrinkles on both. He looked like he has been wearing the same clothes for a week! He was at least 75 lbs overweight and white as a ghost.
It WAS probably the first time he has went outside all summer.

He's been living a subterranean life since high school graduation.
This is progress.

My husband and I took a 49 minute walk with our daughter tonite.
I was laughing my ass off........






Because she'd exclaim with glee when something was near.
She's 18. LOL
And she does have a life.
Was a valedictorian of her high school class and salutatorian in her nursing program.
Has her LPN too.
You don't have to be a reclusive person to have a little fun.

Meanwhile the last remaining bowling alley in a 60 mile radius is closing here this weekend.

Anyone doing this? My friend called and wants me to go to the park so she can use her Pokemon go on her phone. Is this a virtual treasure hunt?

I have an idea that is 1000 times better. Walking Dead!!!

Not really a "kid" then. Lol.

I'm waiting to hear the news about one who wanders into the road after a Pokemon and gets hit by a car.

 

[ChrisL]

Lol! That's hilarious!

Haters gonna hate

Thinking something is ridiculous and hate are two different things.

Welp, guess you won't be walking out into traffic anytime soon........

 

[boedicca]

What a galactically stupid waste of time. SRSLY.

The one upside is the potentional Darwin Award aspect of morons chasing Pokemons running off of cliffs and into traffic.

 

[boedicca]

And just so everyone is clear on the topic: Pokemons are Slave Soldiers who are forced to Kill Other Pokemons.
