I had to delete #PokemonGO. It was causing division in my marriage. Apparently, my wife didn't want to be married to a 12-year-old nerd.

Me: a Weedle

Pokemon Go rekindled the spark in my dying marriage until my wife joined Team Mystic and I joined Team Valor, now we're worse than before.

I just asked Tony if he wants to go outside and play #PokemonGO and he didn't seem very interested. I'm getting divorced now brb.

If Jeff and I get divorced at any time in our lives, the root of the problem will be traced back to Pokemon Go. Promise.
