Nope, it’s trash and is deteriorating the health of millions of people globally. I love people, and I care about their health.
A little here and there probably won’t hurt you too bad, but every day or even several times a week is not good.

There was a time when I could put down a taco 12 pack by myself! Lol I still enjoy them, but limit myself to about 8 tacos every few months

Jesus this is funny. I try to take that into consideration with any of our contests and add a randomly chosen winner too, it’s such a hard balance to hit.
GOD this video is perfect though.

I became damn near addicted to Taco Bell for the first 6 months after my mom passed a couple years back. Was trying to stuff everything down with food.
My nearest Bell is 30 miles away…and I was making the trip 5-8 times a week.
/shame
Gained a MASSIVE amount of weight…started having a hard time moving around (even just walking out to get my mail would wind me and make my face super red)…and I had all sorts of issues from all the sodium I was taking in.
It was gross and I felt misserable.
haha WAY TMI lol :p.
I finally snapped out of it…now I have Bell 2 or 3 times a month. I still love it.
I’m still struggling with the massive weight I gained during the period…but I have lost quite a bit and no longer have any issues getting around like I was having.
Sorry for over sharing guys xP
I respect Smiley and his healthy lifestyle. I wish I cared enough to put more effort into such myself.

I don’t mind. Sharing is caring! - Did yoyoing help you with transitioning out of your funk?
Yoyoers eat really unhealthy during contest

It’s definitely a slippery slope! The only reason I didn’t put any weight on, is I was a broke ■■■■■■■■■■■ a car. I had to ride my BMX bike 10 miles 1 way to get to work. To this day, I feel bicycle riding is one of the greatest forms of exercise in existence! Super low impact, great cardio, and tons of fun. Good on you btw for pulling yourself out of the hard times. I witnessed my mom go through severe depression when I was a teenager, and she put on about 250lbs. It’s taken her over 10 years to recover!

Plastic yo-yos are across the board inferior to metal, and given that metal yo-yos are so cheap now, there is really no reason to ever go for a plastic. 
(Playing my own devil’s advocate, the only rational reason to do so is softer hand feel and less damage to objects you accidentally hit, up to and including yourself.)

Agreed. Plastics definitely dont play as well as most metals. However, there is something to be said about a well machined delrin. Delrins/high end plastics have so much soul to me.

I’m curious. What’s your favorite yoyo right now?
There most certainly is!

There is something to be said for any yoyo, regardless of material, that plays/performs in a way you really enjoy. Maybe there is a unique feel to the way plastics play that no metal yoyo can duplicate, in which case those folks who really want that feel aren’t going to get it unless they are throwing plastic.
For my own part, I love any yoyo that yields peak spin and stability (and isn’t ugly as sin). I have some plastic hybrids that come close to, but still can not match, what my top performing metals/bimetals can achieve in this regard, which is why I don’t throw plastic yoyos very often.
To use a car metaphor, I prefer Formula-1 yoyos, not off-road recreation yoyos. As you can imagine, plastics and organics tend not to find their way into daily rotation for me. For others, it’s the other way around!

@zslane kind of like a lot of people find magic with organics (I’m one of those people as well) a well made plastic gives me that feeling.
@threebearrries idk if I really have a favorite. I’ve been really enjoying the hero by circle city a lot because it has that old school feel with a lot of power, but I also prefer a lot of older metals. Some of my favorites are the wooly marmot, 5starv2, 07 888 and the punchline. In terms of delrin, I really enjoy playing my sk8r when I just want to have fun, the delrin wedge is also a beast. Cabal is really great as well.
@Glenacius_K I’m gonna try and buy one of your magic acetals sometime after worlds!
