Something to do with very large elephanting weapons? 
I'm still surprised at how many Americans hadn't heard of Roald Dahl, and were shocked that this was the name of a kid's movie.

Singapore is famous for it's malls and shopping centres, the locals go there to stand around and chat, enjoying the A/C and doing their shopping. Navigating these clumps of immobile pedestrians can be irritating if you have somewhere to go!
Enter the new pokemon thing and the zombie count has gone way up, crowds of people all peering at their phones waving them in the air and none of them are aware of their surroundings.
I predict a death or serious injury in the near future as one of these people blindly walks into the traffic!

Drop a shoulder and keep on ploughing on, or just pretend its ten pin bowling with people. See how many you can get in one go....

I would not go that far, but by now I don't care very much if someone runs around blind and deaf and insists on running into me. If they don't care, why should I?

Would it not be much more evil to snatch their phones and throw them in front of the incoming subway/bus/steamroller?

Throw the phones before the bus, not the Zombies. They will follow automatically.

7 so far, though not in one go, I had to navigate 2 shopping centres yesterday and there were clumps of them filling the entire walk way. I'm a bit like a mack truck in a swarm of motor bikes, generally they move out of the way but they were so focused on the game I got quite a few.

"Stupidity cannot be cured with money, or through education, or by legislation. Stupidity is not a sin, the victim can't help being stupid. But stupidity is the only universal capital crime; the sentence is death, there is no appeal and execution is carried out automatically and without pity." -- Excerpt from the notebooks of Lazarus Long, from Robert Heinlein's "Time Enough for Love"
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
--Zachris Topelius
Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.
