You dont get ADD from blinky Yo-Yos

you get it from lack of vitamins and exercise (according to Tom Cruise anyway) :^)

maybe the blinky light is hypnotic? Maybe you were hypnotized? If so that would be a unique team strategy!

1. Hypnotize your opponent team
2. win the match

ADD people can respond indiscriminately to stimuli:
ringing phones, blinking lights, voices down the hall

it is a 'paying attention to all signals' kind of thing

Me, as well as a few members of our team (including adults) continued to play with them constantly, even on the way back to our hotel and in the hotel, lol.

A couple of my teammates got infected with the ITT Yo-yo virus. So infected, I actually began to call one of them Ness.

Yes, watching them counts.They are truly addicting and at the hotel, on the walk to the hotel and in and around the pit I played with it, in fact I'm still playing with mine right now.

I discovered that trying to talk on the phone and yo-yo is a difficult thing because all I could think about was yo-yoing good. I should probably get rid of that thing...

Talk on the phone, drive a motor vehicle, carry on an intelligent conversation, observe or participate in any sporting event, eat or drink, do no use in or around water, do not stare directly at the YoYo, always wear protective clothing and eyewear, do not use near rotating machinery, WARNING: severe head-clunking hazard!

It would have been nice to know those things.

Yo yo's are so last decade. Or.. 2 decades ago now?? idk


I was way too busy with my Gyro Ring pro edition...

I'm sure a bunch of you are interested in getting one by the number of people who came up to me and talked about it.

So, link below.

Just look up "gyro ring" online.
