Pokemon Go

Post by homie »

You have to note the kids got up and went outside... at 2am, in the park o_O
Youth is wasted on the young now more than ever. Hordes of young people are non threatening for a change, refreshing for Chicagoland area. What I don't get is the old folks showing up to gather these imaginary creatures. The Churches are loving it because they're some kind of upload station I don't yet understand because I have a life.

I saw the Nintendo driverless car scoping the streets in my neighborhood and it's the same technology as the Google map car and probably cost as much as going to the moon... so they've bet the farm on this being the next big deal. I suspect we will have women chasing down coupon discounts all over the land soon in the same fashion because everybody loves a good scavenger hunt! It's geeks and girls so I'm not worried about my son but where is he parking the Volvo o_O

Chief say "whatever float boat"

A quarter of my friends and coworkers have gotten into this game. It's pretty fun, but at the local training centre you can tell the casual oh 5 minutes here and there catching Pokemon guys from the devoted 16 hours a day guys.

So far I've discovered a Cenotaph, World Unity Sculpture, and a Saturday farmers market in my neighbourhood because of this game.

Fun to an extent (between friends sharing a game) but riciculous to the level many are people going to - chasing them all over town and some are only in certain parts of the world (travel, fuel usage, etc all gone up as people are travelling across town to catch some that are reported to be in certain places!) The creators done a deal with google to have the imaginary creatures shown on google maps! Their share price has rocketed as expected. People at work hacked their Iphone accounts to sign up to a US account days before it went live in the UK, and then went outside and visited the local parks and shopping centre to catch some!!!!
Crazy, but good for those cashing in on this madness. Wish I has bought shares to cash in before the craze subsides once again.

It does not operate as a phone, they interviewed the patent holder today on local radio and ask him the same question. He replied it can never be a phone and many people had suggested he take a selfie with it :lol: :lol: :lol:
Good Lord! Jamie's got her gun

I was only kidding.

Not sure terrorists are going to be quaking at two rounds of 0.380 ACP. :D. Might make them angry.

I'd love one mind.

On the Pokemon topic there's loads of nerdy kids wandering the street. Downloaded and tried it. It was a bit freaky, one Pokemon at the end of the balcony and one in the river. Can see how it would be good fun.

Well today we have one girl ran over crying to the news station and her mom filing a lawsuit. Two morons fell 90 feet off a cliff trying to catch one. Private property and caution signs don't stop a guy from getting his Pokemon :lol: Parents afraid their kids are running across highways randomly like spastics and some one got knifed in a place where they shouldn't have ventured. BIG FUN! i'm going to download this and get out there with the rest of the crazy world... WOOT! Don't want to miss it boys and girls.

Crazy. At least none of us here on the forum go around endlessly wasting fuel for no good reason.

If it wasn't friday night I would be out wasting fuel for no good reason :lol: Instead I just punked my wife's movie night girl friend so bad I thought she would pass out.

In from a walk with the dogs I ask for her advise and told her I had found money and couldn't give it back. I said its a lot of money and handed her about 15k in 100 dollar bills o_O said I found it under the bridge in a paper bag I ask her should I call the police because it's dope money for sure. (this particular bridge recently had a couple bundles of marijuana packed in the rafters last year waiting pickup but a good Sam found it) made the news. After several seconds and nothing but "OMG" she's was ghost white and I could see this was a difficult decision for her. Relentless and with a stone cold poker faced I said...

Look, I would feel better if you took half if I'm going to keep any, I reached over and took about half out of her hand. She stared at what was left, thumbing through the randomly stacked distressed new and older Benjamin's for what seemed like forever (expression was priceless) I could tell she had no doubt.

then.... "THESE ARE ALL ONE HUNDREDS!"

:lol: :lol: :lol: I had to let her off the hook because I think she was about to say... ???
OH what FUN! but I will pay for that ;) look closer https://www.amazon.com/MONEY-STYLE-Prin ... W0YD92ZYHM

You know I love a good prank and this stuff is scary realistic. Everything looks and feels fine except we all know what money smells like. The ink dosent run, the font and color is great and the cut and placement is PERFECT on both sides. They must have a serious press because these were mint and looked too new. I had to wet/dry and manipulate them a little to be believable because who would have 10k bundles of perfectly minted 100's. I find myself smelling my C-notes these days because without glasses forget it, I wouldn't catch this if someone handed me one.

five star gag item :o o_O :) :D :lol:
