Man quits job to become full-time Pokemon GO player

Okay now THIS is a bad idea.

If I had a job, I would have never quit my job just to play a phone game. I would have played ti when I go to work and back

Oh god...this is getting out of control REALLY fast.

agreed! I'm so surprised that a simple phone game is making people do all these crazy things 

I've always known that many of us are children at heart, but this is ridiculous xD

 

I totally agree with that!

Sure, we are children at heart, but some of the things that are happening thanks to Pokemon GO is just insane.

See, now this is...well we've already pasted "going too far" a while ago, so this is just crazy. Yet again, I called it.

Somebody should tell this guy that you can be the very best and still get paid.  :lol:

He truly will be the best that ever was. Only he'll be homeless and starving at the same time.

 

But hey, at least he'll have all of his virtual pets to keep him company.

I was expecting this Pokemon Go thing was going to be exciting to play. But I didn't expect some folks to take it so seriously. With all of the negative talk going back and forth.

 

It kinda reminds me of back in the late 90s when Pokemon started it out. It was a great thing, then people back and forth talks about how it's evil blah blah blah.... 

Of course, if someone quit their job to go climb rocks or go surfing, we would consider that to be incredibly empowering and a sign of sticking it to the man and escaping the machine.

Something I'd like to add. There are ways to be a active pokemon go player without having to quit your job. 

Of course, if someone quit their job to go climb rocks or go surfing, we would consider that to be incredibly empowering and a sign of sticking it to the man and escaping the machine.

 

No, it'd still be stupid.

 

Or maybe it isn't, I dunno. I've literally never encountered a single person who thought that was an acceptable mentality. Then again, maybe it's just because I'm a hard working student who dreams of being the first person in my family to actually graduate from college.

Don't know if I should take this seriously or not 

OH TEH SHOCK POKEMON HORROR IS DESTROYING OUR WORLD WHO WILL SAVE UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUS?

 

 

Joking aside,people are gonna blow this waaaaay out of proportions even though most likely is a hoax story cuz.............the current patch has only Gen 1 Pokemon which are 150 if you don't count Mew so how can he become a full time player if he caught all of them before the Gen 2 update comes around?

Gee, it's not like other people have done this in the past with other games... oh wait.

Too late. One dude quits job, eryone says GO is a bad idea. It's not like everyone who plays it quits their job or gets hit by cars or whatnot.

If I had a job, I would have never quit my job just to play a phone game. I would have played ti when I go to work and back

If anything, I'll NEED a job because of Unchained X. XD"

We found our lost pokemon master. My the god bless him

First of all, where will he get his money, second of all, he may be getting exercise but he can't just spend his life playing a game. Not a good idea.

For Pokemon Go? Not worth it.

 

But, if I woke up one day to find out that Pokemon were real and organized training/battling was becoming a thing... Heck yeah, I'll go do that, I can get my money by beating up youngsters' Ratattas. Gotta catch 'em all.

I hope this game crashes soon and the bandwagon with it.

Well....

 

Pokemon GO is mad, sure, and it is basically roping entire populations under it's sway, seducing people into it's grasp like a Succubus...

 

But this man? He's insane. On the scale of Sanity and Insanity, he's on MARS he is so freaking gone!

 

Personally, I hope Pokemon GO lives for a long, long time, because goddamn, I've not heard of a phenomenon such as this since...well, Pokemon. xD As for this man...well, he's firetrucked. xP
