We all smack the yo into ourselves with varying degrees of force from time to time, but how about others? My kids are always underfoot in whatever I’m trying to do, and have little respect for the ‘danger zone’. When the young fella was enthusiastic about throwing, and getting kinda confident, there was a blanket rule that if he ever collected his little brother, the yo would go, for the rest of the day. I myself have only had to put it away once, for a minor ding (no tears) but they test me daily. How about your fine selves? Kids, cats, dogs, partners, general public, windows, strangers cars…all applicable. Let’s hear the confessions of irresponsible throwing!

My boxer likes to check out what I’m doing sometimes and wants to join in but he has never been whacked yet. Last week my pug wasn’t paying attention and walked right into a breakaway at the perfect ( or imperfect ) time as it was and got whacked on the nose. Fortunately he already had a mashed in face but he yelled and ran in the other room for a minute. They have been watching me throw for years without incident up to that point.

If my cat hears a yoyo, he will get up from wherever, and come attack my legs with claws and teeth…
He’s a bit bossy, and I think jealous of the time I spend yoyoing.
Dinged him once. I felt bad, but it also seems inevitable. I try to be careful, but I pretty much have to push him out of the way for each throw lol.
