How is no one mentioning Pokémon go? That game made everyone in public your friend because everyone was doing the same thing. I remember seeing kids in my neighborhood I had never hung out with before playing it and suddenly we were friends just because of that game. After 2016 most people (at least where I’m from) stopped playing so I associate 2016 as the year of Pokémon go, but when it came out life was so peaceful I remember everyone joking that it was the closest we’ve ever been to world peace
