Sorry but semi-off-topic. But if we’re gonna go into facts…

@Jump

12: Yoyo’s were never used a wepons, that is a lie.

Yes and No. It’s a misconception that the Yo-Yo WAS a weapon, however if WAS the inspiration for a weapon:

“It consisted of a four pound stone attached to a rope about 20 feet long. Tribesmen used it in two ways. When hunting, they stood off to one side, held one end of the rope and threw the rock towards the legs of an animal. The rope became tangled around the animals legs, and with a tug, the hunter brought the animal down. Against enemies, the stones would be dropped on their heads. The tribesmen would quickly recover the stones, ready for a second blow if necessary.”

There’s been art of these in use found, and a few of the “tools” have been found. Most without the surviving rope. Though some have been found with threads or pieces of the rope. I believe there’s several in the Smithsonian.

I honestly love this one the most!! It is sooo true too!
“Ahhh, dang I missed it”
“What, you did, it didnt look like it”
“yeah, but I still did, here lemme try it again”
“no, its fine, just try somthing else”
“NO, I MUST LAND THIS!!!”

Thats the way it goes with me at school, more often than not

2. It pains us to walk the dog
3. We don’t walk the dog anymore, instead we do this: Insert crazy trick

@Chris

55. As performers and athletes at the same time, we will accept requests no matter how simple.

Uhh, what?

After reading this, I think something wrong. I must not be a yoyoer…

I… walk the dog, don’t get sore arms, enjoy discussing the benefits of an expensive yoyo, let people walk the dog, use just up and down yoyos, don’t carry a yoyo in my pocket, feel bad for hitting people (which rarely happens, thankfully), don’t practice (I play yoyo occasionally, that’s all), don’t find myself in much pain from yoyo playing, don’t use it as self defense, use slack with meaning only, am not picky about string, walk the dog on water (FUN!), have a wood yoyo, and appreciate vibe.

I’m not doing it right according to y’all… but it feels right to me.

Some kids that are on the football team at school were making fun of me cause I stunk at playing basketball because I epicly missed a easy shot durring P.E. and they said,“Wow James, really! The only muscle in your body is probably your yoyo finger. I bet you have a 6 pack on it huh. Why don’t you flex it for us and do some one fingered pushups with your yoyo finger?” Lol!

~James Reed!

YES THAT IS TRUE^___^

Finally

80. No matter what we do or how we do it, there is no correct way of doing things. Yo-yoing is creativity and a million hours of practice do not make us pros. It is dedication and fun that truly makes a yo-yoer a yo-yoer pro or not.

PS: I was waiting for someone to say that for this fact.
