People keep playing Pokemon Go at funerals
Virtually everyone is playing Pokemon Go at the moment. It's tough to put it down. Really tough. In fact even during funerals, people still won't put the damn game down.
Like this guy.
Which is worse, a Pokemon being at a funeral home mid-wake, or me knowing that he's there? pic.twitter.com/vLE5oKa3Vd

For reference, it's definitely worse that you know he's there. Squirtle doesn't know what he's doing.
On the bright side, Pokemon does seem to be cheering people up on sad days...
My brother tried to cheer me up yesterday at the funeral by telling me to play Pokemon go w/ him & we walked so far pic.twitter.com/PGy6gUSc80

But a lot of people are questioning why all the Pokestops have to be on graves.

Tonight at my step-grandpa's funeral dinner, my nieces and I decided to try this whole Pokemon shebang. Caught 2. We are HOOKED.

Even Lizzie Borden's grave is a gym.
Lizzie's Borden's grave is a Gym?! That is absolutely hilarious. Do all Pokemon automatically get axes to battle? pic.twitter.com/7kg3WfcqaG

And a lot of people feel like they're Burke and Hare.

And they're even tresspassing at night, getting tresspassing warnings in fricking graveyards in order to capture Psyducks.
Don't go into a cemetery to catch Pokemon at night even if you gotta catch um all pic.twitter.com/XzWtwJBkrO

And bumping into family, who are also trespassing / grave robbing.
I just accidentally ran into my sister in a grave yard playing Pokemon go

And hopping graveyard fences...

And making graveyard friends. They're not even goths.

So if you're on the fence about whether it's acceptable to capture pokemon at a graveyard...
If i die soon, its probably bc i got haunted and killed by some ghost bc I went to a GRAVEYARD at MIDNIGHT to find Pokémon today 🙃👏🏼

Don't be. It's fine, apparently.
Hanging around a Graveyard at 9am catching Pokemon 😎

Even at 9am on a Friday.
