Now for the 12 year old in me, nothing I write becomes a meme, but here:

"Last night outside your bedroom window I caught a Pikachu"

Lol how's that for mature ;)

Starting to get ready to bake a blueberry tart... Lol.

But another iPhone joke,

Gifted 11 yo walking down the street, 250% farther along in The Game ® than the other limpets, the two shadow guv agents watching his cell phone feed look at each other and say, "I'd tap that"



I'm gonna burn in hell for that one

"Tap",
From the hitchhikers guide to the web,

Tap
V
Tap, to deliver a short light blow designed to alert the senses via touch or sound without causing injury

V
To surveil a person or entity's telephone or computer typically without the persons knowledge

V
To open a beer keg

V
To realize a sexual fantasy

V
To utilize the potential of a subject, ie to source

Well think about this...back when subliminal messaging was first discovered by/announced to the public, very few could afford the tech to detect the single frames in the motion pictures. In this digital age of nanoseconds giving edges in trading, how deeply imbedded in how many levels can they put shit in the images we see (and audio we hear...and energy we feel?) these days? Kinda frightening...but the flip side is that it's extremely superficial...and I think the cure/resistance to it is only in mindfulness...thinking...self awareness.

We'll see, I guess, life moves pretty fast

Heh! With pokemon it was the actual stuff in game that freaked me out.

Like the science museum in one of the early handheld versions, where the player could view Space Shuttle Columbia...

In FireRed and Leafgreen versions, the shuttle was removed. This gave value to the earlier games upon which these two were based. It was interesting to see people react to this detail in the game.

I can't recall too many more like that.

Good point re effects too subtle to detect without instruments.

Hey Lol. Did not intend to criticize only Pokemon.

It is just the current unfortunate example.

Lots of people had Location disabled on their phones for privacy reasons I guess, and Crackimon is a way to open that door.

It's scary to be the .007% minority who bitches about this. I needed another huge red target on my ass. Lol
