    Pretty sure I was tailed by the local police for possible drunk driving because I was driving around looking for pokemon at 3AM going 30 down a 45 (But it was a Snorlax so worth it)

    I dunno, I might stab someone for a Mewtwo if there's only 1 out there.

    Every time I go for a walk I get the "server problems, please try again later". Makes no sense seeing as I have no signal loss. Then I go home and it loads in like 2 seconds.

    A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again.

    Yeah, same here today. Went out downtown with the wife and there were waves of people walking around the marina playing. It was actually kind of creepy. But we kept losing connection, then the server is down, etc... seemed to get worse closer to larger groups (10-20).

    Then we got home. BOOM, 5 pokemons waiting in my driveway and no connection issues.

    1 incident where retards in a real bad neighborhood were luring people in to rob them and they already were arrested and you're acting like its the end of the world.

    You were coddled too much as a kid. Get over it.
    lolwut did I imply this was a cataclysmic event? I meant no it isn't going to being world peace considering some are already finding ways to use it maliciously.
    Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity

    Didn't even realize it existed until today, then my doorman tells me about it, how you have to physically go places in this gps type world. Neat idea, but I already excersize and do enough physical activity. Games are my relaxing time, but for young kids, and people who need to move around more it seems like a great idea.

    Yup. I nabbed two 10km eggs today while we were downtown. Looks like i'll be taking a six mile walk around my neighborhood. Which is a good thing. I'd just rather go out around people and gain those miles. I met a lot of cool people today of all ages. There were families walking around with their kids having a good time. Some old guy was sitting behind us at a cafe and randomly piped in asking if we planned on taking the gym down the block. But yeah the connection issues really suck right now. I'm sure they had no idea how massive this was going to be. Hopefully they can upgrade whatever server situation they've got going on. And the random app crashes need to get fixed.

    My boss started playing it last Friday. Today he was out in the office parking lot several times during the day securing a landmark. Just hilarious watching him leave the area and then a few minutes later someone else from a different team walk up and start capturing it. Must have been ~10 different people from the little (~200 people) tech campus I work in that were competing for that one spot.
