I actually just mailed out #39 and #40 is earmarked for @Xanadu so I have successfully given them all out.

If I get some inspiration I like I will eventually do a 4th run. You can age and tarnish the copper and rust the iron filament. So I might do a gross rusty one or something stupid some day.

If you remember, may I ask how many you made in total of each color.

I like the yoyo more than the CLYW Peak, which we know tons of the history on, so to have it documented in this thread would be super dope if you are cool sharing

This is to the best of my ADHD rattled recollection lol but I believe I made 12 of the original brown and blue, 12 red and gold, and 24 of the glow in the dark. So me numbering them 40 earlier in this thread is bull poo also lol. I also made 3 original prototypes that are silver and blue. The protos are the same design I just hadn’t ordered material yet so they were made with what I had on hand.

Oh snaps, that is awesome. Thank you for sharing :heart:

Edit: and when you said 40 I thought it was 40 on that one colorway, very sorry to make you publicly proclaim you were wrong lol

I don’t mind being wrong, or publicly admitting when I was wrong. This is probably the autism but I actually get really confused any time someone is upset they are wrong (which seems to happen all the time) like oh no you learned something? _How terrible for you!_

Personally, I’m wrong more times than I’m right. And if the Waffle Stomper is wrong, I don’t want to be right lol

You really nailed it on this yoyo, thank you again

It’s ego. I’ve found I’m super successful in my career but not having an ego and being willing to pass stuff off or move along and pivot and take accountability and most importantly willingly say idk of I was wrong let’s try your way.

I consider it a part of maturing especially as a good leader. Some folks never do and it shows.

That’s the part that’s so confusing to me lol. It’s like an alien concept. It leads to situations at times because the culture where I work has always been one where if you know someone is wrong and you politely correct them with data they thank you. Even an exec or VP. They might ask some clarifying questions or examine your data themselves but in the end being corrected is a non issue and I’ve spent 15 years going around correcting people. But recently that seems to be changing, not everyone or all the time but I have gone into situations where I’ve come armed with information and been treated like I kicked a puppy for providing facts.

This ego concept exists because I can observe it. But psychologically how one is developed on such a manner is so confusing to me. I toss that up to neurodivergence because I get the same confused feeling whenever I see someone gambling. Mathematically you will lose your money but you are so self assured you will be the different person? I’ve inquired and has many folks explain their intentions and opinions on the matter. It’s still like trying to interpret butterfly flight patterns to me.

At its deepest roots, it’s pride. What defines pride is “My will be done,” and “I cannot change.” It makes us pit ourselves against others. We compete, we contradict, we take offense, all because of pride. Pride can even manifest itself as shame, because the idea is the same. And yes, it is very irrational.

The opposite of pride is humility. Contrary to popular belief, humility doesn’t mean to think less _of_ oneself. Rather, it means to think less _about_ oneself. Humility turns outward towards others. We celebrate the triumphs of others just as we would our own. We accept correction, not because we were doing something wrong, but because we seek to learn, and to grow; to ultimately become better than we were before, instead of better than others.

(I apologize for the soapbox)

My 1yr old had waffles and blueberries this morning. Because she’s only 30th percentile we don’t hold back food and she’s developed a habit of taking dry food like a waffle from the table and hobbling it as she roams about.

She ended up making her way upstairs and my wife was taking a shower. baby is at the shower door demanding entry as the water baby does. Proceed to take out her in the shower and she refuses to let go of the waffle and we aren’t willing to fight the baby over it.

Avery proceeds to drop the soggy waffle in the shower and stomp on it. Most innocent waffle stomp ever .
