Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #185: Summer Activities

I worked at a bookstore....ok it was a porn and collectibles store (Shinders, for the locals) when Pokemon was big (along with Magic and pogs). I hate all of it. So *ing annoying.

Edit: Shinders marketed itself as a bookstore. Most of their money was made on dirty mags/vids, and collectibles. Mostly the former.

Speaking of Pokemon. 50 adults standing in a little park by the Riverwalk in Reno, shouting things like "I got a poliwag". As we were walking back from dinner.

I dunno whether to laugh or cry.

Back to work tomorrow after 10 days off. Bummer. At the same time, I'm pumped because I'm not going back to the call center. I'd be a wreck of depression right now if I was.

Going solo on my 1.5 person rated job. This should be fun. If you're a sadomasochist. Let's put it this way: Houghton and the surrounding communities may burn when I get there in a couple weeks. ;)

You're better off this way.

Short of it is, it's a video game. They made it so you have to go out into the physical world to specific locations in order to be awarded different things, like the little monsters upon which the game is based.

I googled it. Now I get it. I guess it's better than sitting on your azz all day gaming. Might have to download for our next camping trip. Not.

Then Nintendo would be the first compmay to come through in trying to thin the herd.

Wow. The world is a different place then going next door to see if Steven, Kimmy and Sheila want to play kickball in the empty yard.

Good Morning Lodge.

No kidding. What happened to the days when kids went outside and rode dirt bikes, 4-wheelers, etc. all day.

I have yet to see any kids playing. Everyone has been 18+. So maybe they still are going outside.

I'd imagine because not all kids are allowed cellphones.

Luckily for me, I haven't seen anyone playing the stupid game.

Greetings from Chicago. Naturally, my access to the client's building has not been approved yet. So I am wasting time here in the lobby.

Coworker came back from lunch all excited she found a yellow ball. Apparently this has something to do with Pokewhatever.
I asked her, "Aren't you almost 30?" :D
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #185: Summer Activities

Vera has started playing it.

*take the good with the bad. take the good with the bad. take the good with the bad.*

She's about the perfect age to have been 10-12 years old when poker&balls was released by Nintendo - roughly the same age as my oldest nephew.
