Wierdest thing you've ever been told while playing with a yoyo?

did you chase after him?

Are you also from SE MI I think ann arbor would be better.

Yeah i am im in roseville.

and yes probably a better idea than doing detroit lol.

Nah :slight_smile:

Some kid asked if I would stop complaining about 2 Chainz playing at Lollapalooza and give myself a concussion as I was doing a trapeze today. It was kinda funny because we were in PE

“Your glove has a HUGE hole in it.”

“That isn’t a yo-yo… It is only a yo since it only goes down”- my uncle

Heres a new one,

Is that actually spinning? touches yoyo WOAH! It IS spinning!

I’ve gotten that a few times. I love how people feel so clever after they say it. :smiley:

Funny, it never really struck me that the name derived from the reciprocating motion usually associated with it, although I suppose that makes sense in a way. I always thought of the yoyo as one entity, not an up and a down conjoined by a hyphen.

My uncle said the same thing :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue:

you must be good with your fingers :wink:

Okay, I’ve got three stupid / strange things people have said to me while I was yo-yoing:

  1. About a year ago, my friend Nico and I were yo-yoing in a park and some kids saw us. They were convinced the yoyos were electric, so we took them apart to show them that it was not so. They then said there were little batteries in them, so we threw them down and waited until the yoyos ran out of sleep to prove that they were now electric. They said we pushed hidden buttons on the string to make them stop. Yes, some people are that stupid.

  2. I was yo-yoing just before my orchestra practice, and some of the other orchestra members saw me. They weren’t sure if it was even a yoyo, so I explained all about it and the different styles. One girl still doesn’t believe its a yoyo.

  3. I am teaching my fried to yoyo, and one of the grade 8’s came up and said: "Woah! Those yoyos spin?!? Normal yoyos don’t do that, do they?

the first one happen to me once, seriously it like they don’t know what a ball bearing is.

sooner or later im going to use that as my sig. :smiley:

Some little kid said “sooooo… yoyoing is kind of like archery, right?”. I said “it’s exactly like archery” in the most sincere voice possible. Mr.Yoyoguy and Apollo were there :smiley:

this has to be the best one yet

“I can tell its a trick yoyo, I can hear the moto-”

falls to the ground

Me:whipes blood off of yoyo, walks away

Problem=Solved

Oh Eli hops, I love you.

beautiful!

I reported you just so you know, please watch your language.

music to my ears ::slight_smile:
