Whack! Just the whackest. That's the experience that we're seeing all over the place on social media, as well as on our own phones.

We'd normally take umbrage with the Kardashianism of "breaking the internet," but in this case, the overwhelming excitement for "Pokémon GO" has led to the actual brokenness of said internet (as far as the internet enables the catching of Pokémon).
