Yet another variant on the "distracted pedestrian". Plugged in, tuned out, and commonly turned into bumper paste by passing trains, busses, and cars. I remember one experience where a jogger, in the middle of the road, was completely oblivious to the stake bed truck on his ankles.

We need a color for something below condition white on the Cooper scale.

I think you could argue that it is essentially Condition Black

I've heard descriptions of stupid people, "Sometimes the gene pool needs a little chlorine."

Looks like with these new phone games, the gene pool has learned how to self-chlorinate.

Natural selection at it's finest.

I thought Condition Black was panicking or moving purely on instinct. Your Lizard brain taking control from the OODA loop. Maybe Condition Clear? "Clear" as in empty or nothing there. i.e. clear skies, a clear road, etc.

I don't mind the natural selection so much. But, it tends to be a messy affair when involving moving vehicles.

I think Condition Black is already taken (Black on ammo means your ammunition supply has been depleted, I believe).

Condition Rainbow?

(LEO use it for indications of mental problems in the subject under discussion)

Condition Butterfly? (as in - chasing them....)

There is a dark side to that kind of selection too.
When a driver hits a person on foot or bicycle, it often does not end with the immediate mess. There also are law suits and maybe even trials for injuring or killing a person. Most people suffer from such an event even when they could not have avoided it.
I am not so fond of natural selection when it involves people other than the ones not selected.
I would really appreciate when law enforcement gives those Pokemon players an appropriate lesson about negligence. In Germany that might earn a person suspension or loss of the driver license.

"Pokémon Go" Nearly Claims First Victim
"Motorist, 28, slammed auto into tree while he was playing game"

People have bumped into me a couple times playing that game. They did not even notice they bumped into me. It pissed me off pretty good. I was thinking that they would make good marks for a robber.

It is also a bit of "Hey, everybody else is doing it; so the IV connection to my private data cannot be that bad."
