Ooh, it gets more interesting: In today's paper I read about a man having shot at two teenagers sitting in their car playing Pokemon GO. They had stopped in front of his house and he overheard one asking the other if he had caught anything. Thinking they were burglars he took his gun, went to the car and asked the boys to stay where they were. Instead they sped off and the man shot at their car. Fortunately no human victims.

This story adds another item in the warning list for my daughter and his boyfriend who also play this.

Your "daughter's" a he?  Wouldn't that be your son?  Unless there was a sex change but then it would be her BF.  I'm confused.

Poke Go is a conspiracy by the PC Gaming Master Race to get as many Darwin Awards as it possibly can  :old:

It generates suspicious activity.  People driving and walking by slowly and repeatedly.  Going to places seen as "strange" at odd hours.  Photography in places it's not allowed, like military bases.

I bet the cops absolutely loooove the calls this game is generating.

Ouch!  :embarrassed: Why do you have to have separate pronouns for sexes in the English language? Wouldn't that add inequality? Sorting people into "us" and "them"?

Just last night my wife reminded me of our daughter crying because of being so hairy that people would think she's a man when she's a grown up. Now she's 21, still having dark downy arms and legs, but there's absolutely no way one could make that feared mistake. She definitely is a daughter and a she.

Zimme, you're a Swede. Don't you have the pronouns han, hon and hen, the last one being a non-sex related relatively new invention to increase equality between men and women?

Ah, I understand. You would refer to me as "han" because you can guess it by my nick, whereas I can't tell anything about you by just looking at your nick.

Hmmm... The Swedish "han" is of the same origin as the German "Hahn" which means "rooster", similarly "hon" equals with the German "Huhn" meaning "chicken", and they both can be referred to as "hen" both in Swedish and in English. Someone must have had a gallinaceous way of thinking.

It's a really stupid game. Very dangerous because folks are not paying attention to the real life situation around them. Accidents and crimes already happened with this app.

A roster and a hen are both chickens but one is male and the other female.

Ok, so I caught a Pokemon... How do I get it into my phone? Is it supposed to smell that bad? I'm so confused.
