If you are a sports fan and you talk shit about Pokemon Go, you are a huge hypocrite. You sit in front of a screen and watch someone else play games, you file into stadiums like herds of lemmings to watch someone else do what you can't/won't, and you act like zombies when immersed in your virtual experience. The only difference is that Pokemon Go players are actually playing their game, and they aren't sitting on the couch to do it.
For those that "just don't get it", it's a scavenger/treasure hunt, what's not to get about that?

Hi, gambo. While I'm not a sports fan, I get what you're saying and I also get the premise of the game. THAT, in and of itself, I don't have a problem with.
It's always the idiots who ruin it. Just exercise awareness while your face - and attention - are planted in your phone. I've had people walk into me while talking or texting. Screw that! Play your game but don't be rude to or inconsiderate of others while doing so (and also please don't fucking drive in the process).
I live near a Pokemon gym and my work place is a Poke-stop. Non stop parade of people Pokemoning. At least some of them are getting outside who might not otherwise.
Isnt the bearded hipster thing ready to jump the shark yet? C'mon it has been years already -- looking like Grizzly Adams is not a cool thing. Bearded person older than 20 + Pokemon Go = hilarious. Bearded Person older than 30 + Pokemon Go = pee your pants hilarious.

I agree with Empty. Perhaps if this game was just confined to on foot, I wouldn't be as irritated. As with texting, put the phone down and watch what you are doing. Is it too much to ask people to just drive when they are driving?

Yeah, that's the thing. I think playing the game is just fine - it seems like a fairly positive thing overall. But Pokemon Go players are still subject to the same expectation as anyone else: Don't be an idiot.

Went on a date today and guess what, he turned out to be a Pokemon Go player and played the game while we were dating. Guess if I'm going to ever see him again...

This is what I mean. Work to try and make a connection with someone (and possibly a union ) or play your stupid walkabout game while on a date. Tough choice. Did you wash today and everything? (jk, I am sure it was him. Who in the hell plays Pokethemon on a date?) Can I ask how old he was? Did he have a beard? Skinny jeans?

Might have been a test. He wanted to meet someone who would play Pokemon Go with him. bluegrace failed the test.

I saw an article today about how business owners are using the game to draw people to their businesses. They pay whatever amount (as individual players just like anyone else - it's not like the game company is specifically selling deals to businesses... yet), get one of these virtual Pokemon things in their business or in front of it, and just sit back and watch them come. It's especially useful to those with businesses that are a bit out of the way. I am not sure if I think this is good or not. I guess it is if we're talking small businesses. I don't feel good about employees of Wal-mart or something fucking doing it, which they probably are. But hey, whatchya gonna do?

Some people prefer to look natural, you think you are cooler than they are, and since you look like all the other other ex-frat guys you must be right!
The beard hatred is just pathetic around here, and while I am sitting in my pissy pants, I will go ahead and throw it out there that this little AET clique is not nearly as funny as it's constituents seem to think they are.
