Also, as some people don't say, the game isn't going to make you "cross the street" so you can get an exact Pokemon. It actually has a surroudning barrier around you that reaches some X amount of meters.

Hey, I have fun with the app. I go out with friends and find cool places and talk and meet new people.

If you don't like it, that's fine and dandy. I could care less. I'm out having fun in my own way. Do the same.

Yup.....to each his own.  To be fair, when I saw the rather large group I saw at our old courthouse, I was only there briefly at a stop light, and the three or four that walked into traffic were rather young.  It was still kinda like a scene out of Stepford Wives or something, I guess they were mostly in the process of catching them.  I never got into the craze as a kid, and I won't now, but I won't condemn those that do.  I grew up in a rural area, we played video games when it was raining or during winter.  Any other time, it was whiffle ball, football, basketball, riding dirtbikes, playing army in the woods, swimming/fishing in the creek, hot wheels, GI Joe, or whatever other mischief we could find.  A lot of tubing and sledding in the winter, when the snow was deep enough.  I never really got into the video game scene TOO MUCH, until college and the PS1 came out.....I know, dating myself there, lol.
