    Nope. Humanity needs a purge.

    We're a level 4 security facility with 8' steel fences, cameras, motion sensors, the whole shebang. I had to actually report us and the federal buildings next to us to the company who made the stupid game informing them that their players would likely be met with threat of deadly force if they didn't remove us from their maps. In the week that we were waiting for that to happen, the guards and I had to deal with 4 EMPLOYEES playing that stupid game in the building. There's a hard "no cameras" rule, and idiots are walking around the building with their cameras out - "there's a Snorlax in the canteen!"

    DoD did the same thing because idiots kept trying to get onto military installations to "catch 'em all." What they were going to catch was the 5.56 flu. It's all fun and games until you cross into a "use of deadly force authorized" area.

    A purge, A plague... I'm down for either. With all the anti-vax movement, we may be headed that way anyway. Self-normalization ;)

    Well I am going to put my foot down and decide to not get the cams. I got to know when enough is enough and not keep spending money on the motor. Next step is going to be the trans and the suspension so I'd rather not keep throwing money at the motor.

    But the QRF has such a great sense of humor...

    There have been a few times we had to be escorted in and had an armed babysitter or two while doing some work.

    And the SCIF denizens just "love" having to shout "red badge" wherever they go escorting you around. And everyone loves the red ceiling light. It's not annoying or anything.

    Those Pokemon go kids we're batshit man. We have a nature preserve behind our back yard and we'd see people walking into trees behind our back yard CONSTANTLY. It's not like it's clear either, it's a heavily wooded area

    I had a friend (early 30's) who became obsessed with Pokemon Go, and I had to stop speaking to and associating myself with them during that period in their life.
