I catch about 6-8 pints a night. They keep making more, though, so i doubt I’ll ever catch em all. That, and I usually stick to the same 5 or so types of pints. They don’t really evolve either.

OK, I’m missing something here.

This appears to be a parody thread, so I’m going to move it to the Pit, where parody threads go.

Parody? Humor? Humour?

Not really. A friend in the UK started posting Poke-pint pictures on Facebook and I joined in. I’ve had people ask what I’m doing taking pics in the bar poking my pint. Some of them have heard of the Go thing, and figure I’m doing something related.

I’m having fun.

Sure, but wait until you walk off of a cliff playing it.

I assume there’s already a “Pussémon GO” porn parody.

I’m not looking for it. You do it and report back. 🙂
