You take your ProtoStar to Knott’s Scary Farm for waiting in line to throw. 
Or any amusement park, I’m just saying Knott’s because I did this yesterday ;D
When you have “yo-yo” withdraws.

When you can’t make up your mind on what to grab first when you get off work. Cold beer or favorite throw? Think i will just keep my yoyos in the fridge!! Problem solved!!
when you wack yourself in the forehead and worry if you damaged your yoyo, not about the big welt that will be on your head the next day
They allow you to take yoyos into amusement parks? I was tempted to take my Popstar along last weekend for my local park’s Halloween Haunt but didn’t want to risk not making it past metal detectors and having to go through guest services.
Speaking of amusement parks, I’m a big theme park nut myself. Recently I scored a roller coaster wheel from our now gone Invertigo coaster at California’s Great America (Those of you who go to Dorney Park, have fun with our coaster next season! Now lives as “Stinger”)…then yoyo obsessions came across and thought ‘hmmm…If only I had 2 of these things and some bearings, I can have a roller coaster wheel yoyo!’ Though it would be a very heavy yoyo at that.
Oh, and worn roller coaster wheels…Looks like a KonKave bearing
I also began to imagine and wonder what size bearings these wheels contain, whether if they’re clean, heavily lubed (I’m pretty positive these bearings would be caked with grease).
I’ve also associated other rides with yoyo tricks: Swinging ship ride/sky coasters as ‘rock the baby’, Drop Towers as ‘elevator’, and pretty much any side style trick with flips and mounts as…you know, a roller coaster!
when you read all 65 pages of this thread and think “wow. this sounds a lot like me.”
When you wonder if your kk bearing is going to get here today, and keep looking up the packaging information on the email and wonder why it’s not “out for delivery” yet.
When you constantly brave your paranoia of needles and sharp objects (so much so that you pass out when the doctors prick you) just to de-shield your bearing for a cleaner, smoother, and longer spin…
When you think what to post on this thread while taking the DWA for writing.
When you base your school report off of a yoyo… Wow.
When you are making a copper yoyo for your magnet school’s Senior Final Project, along with a site on how to do your own on a smaller budget and more homemade…
And when you take your yoyo to school everyday, even when its bloody windy, or bad weather in general.
or when you take your yoyo onto a 7 day cruise, and you meet another person who yoyos from another state and say “Heck yeah!”
lol could send me the link to that site on how to make a home made yoyo when ur done with it?
I can see if i can make it official, but it is mainly for a school project. But I will do all in my power to get it real, just for y’all.
when you get your entire school into yo-yoing(it took 4 years, but i did it)
I am NOT obsessed.
Now, leave me alone. I have to go alphabetize my yoyos.
