Pokemon: Get Off My Lawn!

Not being much of a "gamer", I missed the story on the latest "Pokemon" thing: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-07-1 ... apocalypse

With Orlando, Dallas, and Nice, this is what occupies most Americans' free time? Really?

The above landlord got it right:
Get a Life and Stay Out of My Yard ...

There is a bar up the street and around the corner. Go there, have a beer, and seriously think about your life choices.
Although I'd say a simple "Get Off My Lawn" at the point of a Garand probably gets the idea across quicker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NelBNtNm8l0

The handful of people who stray into yards or whatever are idiots. If there's a Pokemon "in" someone's yard you can catch it from the street. I have a feeling a lot of the people screaming about people in their yard probably just saw kids on the sidewalk holding their phones up, pointed obliquely towards their fence and freaked out.
if ISIS had really wanted to destroy western civilization it should have skipped all the suicide bombers and "made in the San Fernando Valley" decapitation videos, and just hired a few good programmers
"Damn kids just sit around staring at their phones! Go outside! ...wait, wait! Not like this! Dagnabbit!"
The ZH article is bog standard "durr hburr technology is bad fire is scary and thomas edison was a witch" pants-shitting hysteria.
