At the memorial on the Auschwitz site itself, as well. A sad amount of people feel that they're the center of their own little solar system, I don't think it's out of disrespect, jusr a deep indifference to anything that isn't what they're focused on this minute.
How long before some genius gets seriously injured playing this thing in the street then tries to sue Nintendo for it?
I thought exactly the same thing. they are encouraging people to walk around in streets looking at their phone.
Read where two guys in California fell off the edge of a bluff while playing the game. Unfortunately they survived.
The gps signal picks up any area within 50 ft of your location so only the real idiots should get hurt playing. There's no need to be in the middle of a street
I just watched a Casey Neistat video where is in a park and everyone he asks is playing the game. It was insane how many people were playing.
The more recent episode of South Park where Ike keeps calling Stan and Kyle "grandpa's" comes to mind. This game is unbelievably popular, regardless of whether any grandpas call it lame, gay, or whatever. They're also making bank on it, it promotes being active (I've walked 65 km with it so far), and you meet all kinds of people playing it. It's a lot of fun.
I have no problem admitting that I'm kind of a grandpa. By the way, the game's popularity has no bearing whatsoever on whether I consider it to be gay or not. I'm admittedly a somewhat closeminded person on these types of things. The rooms in my house at school are leased individually so I had a new roommate move in recently who I'd never met or spoken to before he showed up. Day 1 he has three dudes over and they spend hours watching youtube videos of other people playing video games and then they play board games for hours in our living room. I do believe in the whole "to each his own" mantra, but if it makes me a [penis] for assuming the kid is a major league tool*, I guess I'm a [penis] then. *After weeks of further evidence, the kid is undoubtedly the weirdest person I've ever met.
