What the ____is going on with people and this game....

Hillary made a deal with Nintendo to release this game at the appropriate time. What a great diversion for her! 

DoubleEgger

I'm joking...

Seriously, you need to set up advertising with Nintendo where the best Pokemons are found at Mississippi Gulf Coast's #1 Hyundai dealership.

I was driving home from the store a couple of days ago and my eldest daughter yells "Stop the car!"

Also, in the past two days I've read about a couple of full grown idiots climbing over the caution signs and falling off a cliff. And some other Darwin winner crashing his car trying to catch a Pokemon.

Accelerating natural selection isn't necessarily a bad thing if it's this entertaining...

A guy in Odessa, next town over was arrested after being stopped for playing the stupid game. They ran his back ground and he had warrants. Moron. Can't fix stupid.

The age we live in. Brutal.

I was sitting in the Doctors office this morning..waiting to be called back; it was literally amazing that 1/2 the room (about 10 different people ) was playing and or showing this game to each other.

one woman noted she had offered to get her son a dog... He said no he liked his games too much. Her next reply was I tried it and I'm addicted too 

 It was at that moment a news broadcaster talking about the same skit made the comment how sad this generation has become

im 31 years old and admittedly addicted to this site more than I should be but geez.. no way in the world I would have turned down a dog at his age... Still wouldn't now for some stupid video game. I know some folks aren't animal lovers but I couldn't help but think if this woman would get him a puppy his world would open up in ways he couldn't imagine.. But I could be wrong 

hell I always had a dog growing up, and I remember even at 20 when I bought my own pup to raise and train.. The possibilities were endless we were going to conquer the world lol. 

We need more Clint Eastwoods in the world instead of this crap we have now..

I agree video games can consume people's lives.  Every generation thinks the up-and-coming generation is lazy, doesn't have the same values, bla bla bla.  This is normal.  Technology is the new opiate of the masses (has been, will continue to be in one way or another), but there will always be an opiate of the masses.

Not wanting to sound like a crazy person, our pets are like kids - they probably get more attention than most people's kids.  Good thing they aren't into video games.

Couple of generation back, same thing was said about kids and the "moving pictures" (aka movies).  Enter Clint Eastwood.  Actor.  Destroyer of youth, several generations back.

It's the volume of grown men playing this game that blows me away.  When I was 20's, any time not spent earning, was spent chasing girls.  Are 20 year old girls not as awesome now as they were when I was young???

Porn is apparently ruining millions of lives.   Maybe this is the problem.

Somehow I don't think these people are missing out on much potential action. In fact this is probably making their chances increase exponentially.

Girl: (to guy) "affirmative!  I <heart emoticon> it!!!!!!! E+33

True. They said on the radio this morning that a guy in Athens, GA reported to police that he was "fondled inappropriately" by another man while he was paying attention to the game on a street corner. So yes....i guess it could increase your chances if that blows your pant leg up.

I just read some dude got dumped because his girlfriend was notified when he found a pokemon at his ex's apartment.  And, something about a couple falling off a cliff. And some dude caused a wreck when he jumped out of his car to catch one.. At least we can thin the herd a little.
