My office in downtown sj  is normally a pretty desolate place after dark, actually with the hobos living in the guadalupe creepin around all night its really kinda shady. 

Been grinding all day and barely got to leave, as im driving out if the lot theres about 100 souless beings walking around aimlessly and  bumping into each other in the park accross the street.  Turns out theyre all just playing pokemon go lol.

Wtf is happening to society.

My son and family came to visit for the weekend.  3 grand kids, aged 6 to 11 years old.  From the second they stepped out of the car, they NEEDED to know if I knew about Pokeman Go.  Well, yea I heard of it from the news; people crashing their cars, walking off cliffs, being set up for being robbed, etc. 
Their little shouts of joy turned to moans and cries of disappointment when they realized that we have no cell phone signal out here and that I password protect the wifi.  They seemed downright cheated when I suggested we shoot the pellet guns, try out the new zip line I installed, the tree fort or play by the creek. 

This was on Friday.  By Monday they didn't want to leave and had temporarily forgot about Pokaman Go. 

This stuff is an addiction.  A commie plot I'm pretty sure.  Reminds me of a Star Trek episode where they wear these head devices that beam a signal at their eyes, playing some sort of holographic game.  Everyone is so into the game, the whole star ship grinds to a halt. 

It's worse than drugs.  Combined with drugs, it's a waste of life.  However, I'd administer this along with drugs to prisoners during their sentence to keep them docile.  Once they are playing, they don't seem to mind anything else that's going on around them or even notice the passage of time itself.  Probably starve themselves, so intent on the game they forget to eat and drink once in a while.

What's Pokemon Go! ????  :smt044 :smt044   J/K     
I certainly don't get it.
Applying the same principals I have a mothership and NCKA Club House in every cool port around the world.
It's all imaginary, so why not?
I liked it better when these people were inside blowing up dragons and building imaginary castles.

Gets them outside. NCKA go is a thing. It's when you stop reading long enough to go make your own report. Fish/pics are the treasures.

 Don't play it, won't download it, don't care to know any more about it!
  Wife, on the other hand mentioned last night she's thinking about trying it just to see what all hub-bub is about. :smt009  She's wondering if there are any in our yard she might find? :smt044
  However her current phone probably can't do the app, so she'll never get to do it! :smt044

I was fishing the south jetty in HMB the other week and whales were hanging out really close to the jetty feeding on bait.  Their heads were popping out of the water as they were feeding.  It was amazing and they whales were there for at least the four days that I was down there for... meanwhile, dozens of kids and adults both were playing pokemon with their heads in their phones never even noticing the whales.  Seriously, they were so busy catching cartoons that they didnt see some of the world's largest animals right in front of them.

Update:

Apparently the park accross the street is some kind of super hub that attracts all the jobless young adults in the middle of te day also.  The other day they brought an ez up, camp chairs and a bbq.....it was like a pokeman go and chill.

I started my own game, I'm catching pokemon players.  Today I found comic book guy from the simpsons...

This is definitely not the way technology is supposed to work.  I want these people inside, off the streets and out of sight plugged into the Matrix!  Now we have a bunch of vegetables creeping around.  Arghh!

But..... it's kinda fun.  Caught my first Pikachu the other day :smt006

I'd rather catch a salmon than some sort of cartoon stuffed animal any day.
May the fish be mighty and the seas be meek...

True but if it's a rock fish and you can get them every trip well a mind numbing game could help.

My 10yr old son was playing,said there was something for the game at the local park.
 So I drive him down to the park we get out and walk into the park,and to my amazement he was the only kid there. But there was about a dozen 30 yr old men there.
