Default Pokemon Go, and defensive driving

Have you had to honk at dumbazzes playing pokemongo everywhere these days?

or swerve away and nearly lose your life because some dumbazz was trying to catch a pokemon in his/her car or crossing the street without looking?


This dude busted his car up while playing pokemongo

Pokemon is serious business. Anyone remember when Red and Blue came out in the 90s? Im seeing people all over playing this. Lots of people can be seen on the phone throughout the day but these Pokemon players tend to look out of place and with a hint of shame in their step, like they are trying to look like they aren't playing Pokemon haha. They also are walking in non routine areas like edges of street corners, through grass....

I find it hilarious and im glad Nintendo has a hit after the the WiiU getting beat up so bad. I wish i could play but my old note 2 wont run it. And i dont think im going to buy a new phone to play this. Nope, no way.

Some people should just be neutered before they have a chance to reproduce.

They need to make this game so that pokemons are jumping off bridges - so that all the retarded people can follow and cleanse the gene pool.

haha. Look at her face. She's so convinced it wasn't her fault.

Are they suing nintendo yet?

It's the American way- sue and blame everyone but yourself.

This game really could cleanse our gene pool. Just have the idiots stand in front of a train to catch pokemon.


I just hope this craze dies off quickly. I don't want to get hurt, especially considering there are more reports of people driving while pokemoning.
