Pokemon GO

[Road Guy]

my entire neighborhood is full of teenagers walking around (or on their bikes) looking for pokemons :| !!!

pokemon is still a thing!  I figured that fad would have died out years ago

 

[Road Guy]

it did until they came up with a new app that integrates into your phones map and camera so you are finding them "in the real world"  - all the kids who were crazed with it when they were 8 are now teens and mine are totally digging the "revival"

Been seeing this on FB and from some of my gamer friends. I don't have that kind of time. But then again, I was never into PM. My sister was (10 yrs younger) though.

My daughter went hiking with some other teenagers yesterday.  I was realy excited, thinking she had finally developed an interest in the outdoors.  

Then I learned that the purpose of the hiking trip was to look for Pokemon...  :blink2:

But nature had the last laugh on them - they drove out of data coverage and ended up actually hiking!

There's your catch for the next family hike...family pokemon safari!!!!!!

 

[Road Guy]

we have been laughing as we have seen kids everywhere outside and most are older teens trying to find these GD Pokémon's!    I think Pokémon planned this perfectly as this is about the time most kids are starting to get bored and need something to do........

In all seriousness were out for drinks at an outdoor mall and we are like the only people not playing this game. Like grown people with real

Jobs and shit.... Someone also just drove by in a POS Suzuki Samurai with the Pokemon theme song blaring? Wtf alternate universe am I in? Someone get that sports trivia book back from Biff!!!

I have no first hand knowledge of anything Pokemon and have no interest at all in finding out anyhting about it.

How am I going to play this game while I sit on the toilet like I do all the other games on my phone?!?!

 

[snickerd3]

the only pokemon i know is pikachu from my kirby game on my gameboy

 

[Road Guy]

I guess if they made a pac man or galaga where we could walk around and play the game on google maps somehow maybe all us Gen 'Xer would be out walking around like a zombie with our phones in front of us in the median of a 6 lane road trying to catch mrs pacman?

 

[knight1fox3]

Ha ha, Galaga, yes!

If we could get someone working on this I bet we'd all be fucking rich
