Organic yo-yos suck. If you use one you are a bad person and you should feel bad.

Undersized yoyos are trash. Dv888 is trash. Even the iconic OD Project is trash by today’s standards. People who say undersized yoyos are good have standards that are too low or are stuck in the old times and their nostalgia.

Wait I got another one!

> These little artisanal yo-yo shops aren’t actually creating anything that objectively amazing – they’re just using hype and artificial scarcity (limited drops) to create their own self-reinforcing “designer” narrative, basically degrading yo-yos to the realm of fashion.

I dunno guys, I think it’s unfair for anyone to compete with me on this. I’m too good at it. I need to stop before I hurt someone!

Pff you just haven’t tried enough bimetals, man!

Which reminds me

> The only people qualified to talk about yo-yos are those people who have enough experience, that is, have actually played hundreds of different ones

and its close cousin

> The only people qualified to compare {x random yoyos} are people who have not just held but played those {x random yoyos}

or!

> The only people qualified to talk about yo-yos are those that have competed in a {type of championship}

I’m not saying I agree with these “unpopular opinions”, for the record, in case that wasn’t clear :wink:
