Most Annoying thing non-throwers tell you

Dude stop that (eli hops at their face)

What I hate.
*does complex spirit bomb kwijibo combo
“Do that one where you shoot the yoyo at me”
“You mean Boomerang?”
“Yeah that’s the one.” “It is like the coolest trick ever!”

better than

does double suicide into double green triangle, binds with grind bind

“Cool, can you walk the dog?”

“can you walk the dog?”

NOO… I am not putting my $100 yoyo on the concrete just for your enjoyment… :o

You need to surround yourself with better people.

I just wanna throw this opinion out there. non yoyoers are different from experienced players in the fact that they do not recognise the difficulty of most tricks. Your super technical knotting combo is usually a whole lot less impressive to them than something flashy like an eli hop. They also enjoy seeing tricks theyre familiar with, you know the basic 3, walk the dog, around the world, rock the baby. While some of those ‘new school’ tricks we throw these days are great and all, it might not impress them that much, simply because of their lack of experience with modern yoyos. So dont get to annoyed by why they dont see how difficult your tricks are. Contest yoyoing and just performing to entertain others are 2 very different things altogether

I find that comments from yoyoers are often more annoying than from non-yoyoers.

It’s any annoying comment, but to me it’s whatever.

“You must have a lot of free time”

This comment is annoying, because to me it means I do nothing in my life, but yoyo. They don’t know that I work full time, and go to school part time, but after my day is done, I do still find time to yoyo. I also play video games and socialize with friends.

I’m glad I have a job I love, that I can still go to school, and most of the time still find time in the day to do the things that I enjoy doing.

The people that make that comment are 100% of the time people that I wouldn’t interact with ever, or ever consider worth my time talking to.

here’s one:

“i can do a fancy yoyo trick. that means that i am better than everyone else who can’t, and those people should never even speak to me because their yoyo knowledge is inferior to MY genius.”

oh wat! that’s just this thread.

why? People enjoy it when they see $100-$200 throws hit the ground.

quit hating on my thread.

throwing in public is great and I love it. Throwing in school is where I get ticked off. Random people come up to me and look amazed and I don’t mind that, it’s that one person that’s trying to be “cool” that he turns into a complete idiot and touches every thing, and is pretending like he even KNOWS how to throw like a pro(I’m not saying I’m a pro, he always claims that he is “world champ”, though it only takes me to show him one vid of the real world champ so he can shut up). There are always things that annoy you, you say non yoyoers don’t annoy you? Go to a middle school and start throwing. Most adults aren’t stupid enough to grab/ tug on a string that has a chunk of metal at the end of it and is going at high speeds. And I’ve engaged in many conversations with non-throwers, but most are adults, because most kids aren’t smart enough that pretending to be someone your not isn’t cool(I’ve had conversations with kids too, little kids, teens of my age, seniors, juniors. But not many).

quit hating on non-yoyoers and I might.

Non-yoyoers think I’m good looking.

Some people are just impossible.

Right… However Tommy Smothers also had been practicing his craft longer then most young people had been alive, of course he was good. Olympic athletes from thirty years ago aren’t nearly as good as those of today (at least in most cases)

1: Them: What in the world is that thing?!
Me: A yoyo…
Them: No it’s not! It looks weird and spins at the bottom!
Me: sigh

2: I show them amazing stuff
"Can you walk the dog, pretty please?
Me: Does it and goes home crying in misery because my yoyo’s whole surface was scratched.

3: Them: “Hey! Can I try?”
Me: “Yea.
Them: starts to try
Me:” Oh yea be careful because that cost- watches in horror while yoyo gets destroyed
Them: "Oops sorry.
Me: * gets in fighting stance*

thatd be a weird case.

“Sir, why did you hit him?”

“He broke my yo-yo”

“is that a regular yoyo?”

“Is this a sport yo-yo?”
