2 'Pokemon Go' players plunge off cliff

ENCINITAS, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say two men who were playing "Pokemon Go" fell off an ocean bluff in Southern California.

Encinitas firefighters say the men climbed through a fence Wednesday afternoon while playing the digital-monster cellphone game.

One man fell about 50 feet down the side of the unstable bluff and the other fell about 90 feet to the beach.

The two suffered moderate injuries.

I witnessed some of this in the park near my office the other day. I'm speechless.

Good morning, guys.

years ago, there was a gal who took the same train as me, and we would ride together,
used to tease her that she was my "train wife".  Anyway, she came up with the term "I-tards" for these
people walking around, their eyes staring at their phones, oblivious to the outside world.  This was before
Pokemon go!

For a second I was afraid Pokemon killed the banter.

If it can't kill anyone with a 90-foot fall, it certainly can't do anything to the banter.

I know The Onion is generally satirical but I think this is a genuine article.

True. Is it in bad taste to say I might be a little disappointed that they survived?

Is there such a thing as bad taste here?

Yes! Let's not encourage 'em.

I'm pretty sure that if there is a 3rd choice, especially if it's a name I don't recognize, that's who I will be voting for this year. Otherwise, I'm writing in TXDave.
