People Wandering Around Texting

So I'm heading into the local supermarket, concrete wall on right two young guys heading my way side by side to the left. I notice dude closest to me is just texting away, and odds are will be either hitting me or coming close if he doesn't pull his head out of his phones grasp.
So, I clap, loud. He finally notices me as we get within maybe 5 feet, and I tell him in a loud not friendly voice to Wake Up!
WTF, people, this cell phone wandering around shit is really over the top. Kid gives me some upset entitled look like he was almost about to catch a Pokemon or some shit and I interrupted his fun...

I have seen a little bit of the Pokemon fad. I use my cell calculator when I shop so I know the total when I checkout. Gotta live on a budget.

I can leer without a cell phone and there are other "buttons" to push...

Well, actually, I can pretty much spend as much as I want. But you do what you gotta do...

Well given that this is actually happening
and some of us seem to be a little surprised
suppose we anticipated ...
what do you think the next step is?
RIFD chips implanted in the brain?

Rectum? Damn near killed him!
(now if I could just remember the joke...)
Was watching one of my financial channels and the guy was talking about video games and how he was into them long ago. His wife said hey check out this VR game. Guy kind of pooh poohs but had his mind blown in the first couple of minutes in the shark attack scene. Later he's in another what he thinks is a seeking game and some zombie appears like a foot from his face and he "screamed like a little girl" it scared him so much.
I guess my point is that the reality of these things are getting a lot more real than playing Asteroids back in "the day".
Anyway, if you have them walking off of cliffs to find imaginary things on their cell phones, why do you need to stick something up their ass or implant it in their brain? You have them already. Looking at that scene the other night in NYC finding the rare pokemon and people battling the thin air said it all for me.
These people are ZOMBIES!!!
Sadly, they keep wandering around...

Some people strap bombs to their chest and walk in buildings, others get off on having more pokeballs on the waist of their cellular minds. 
Maybe the divine force is giving us a glimpse into the window of financial success... create something that turns off the thinking mind, and turns on the nostalgia and elementary pleasure and cash in. Just be sure to thank people along the way and love.
