Terrorists, son. Terrorists. You never might know when a 5 year old girl is secretely plotting blowing herself up in the name of a God that might be ashamed of having such extremists among his ranks.

One shocking statistic I just learned today on my trip to GameStop is that Nintendo is making $1.6 million PER DAY through Pokemon Go...with almost no advertising needed.

So, despite all the "D'oh!" moments and silly WWE promos involving R-Truth and Goldust (the tag team known as Golden Truth), Nintendo has a really big cash cow on their hands.

Even so, I'm one of the few who won't give into the hype surrounding this new phenomenon--because it screams "I'M A FAD!!!" at the top of its pixelated lungs.
