How long before someone gets hit by a car?

Whatever floats your boat but whenever I see grown *** men playing this kid's game

It's going to happen. The same way texting and driving kills. We just don't hear about all of those, since Pokemon is hyped, we'll hear about those though

that kinda $hit comes down to taking personal responsibility seriously while operating heavy machinery. There is potential to kill someone whether you are playing Pokemon Go or reaching down to change the radio station.

That is still one of my all time favorite kitty gifs though

I'm just concerned about the potential danger of it. (And pardon the low post count

) I almost hit someone pulling into a freaking parking spot this morning--they had both ear buds in and their head glued straight down to their phone. Had no idea I was even there, you know, in a supermarket parking lot.

I'm all for kids (or adults I guess) getting out and being active, just be aware of your surroundings.

For sure. But that's with anything, not necessarily just Pokemon.

Btw, welcome to the forum, don't be a fúckhead, have a good stay

Agreed theirs a time and place for everything but while biking and lunch its a great game to spend the time, theirs nothing wrong with playing a phone game as long as perimeters are set and followed, the game came in with full force directed at anyone who played it prior to the Early 2000's and the kids who are coming up in the new millennium. Thats a large chunk of the world now and like DE said, Tech has gotten us into a lavish lifestyle of things being done for us, gets people lazy and it does require a game now to get people off their ***.

Niantic, The game maker have also had a game called "Ingess" out since 2012 with the same type of concept only not Pokemon related but more of a futuristic feel. Maybe some of you can enjoy that instead

Team Mystic BTW

This is a nostalgic reboot for many people that grew up in the 90s. I don't understand the hatred towards it. Everybody's put up with others' sports fanaticism, fantasy teams akin to Dungeons & Dragons, and Clash of Clans invites. Why not let the people enjoy what they want?
