I don't get fidget spinners...

May 12, 2017 4:06 PM

First fad that I genuinely don't understand. Like, I get they are neat and relaxing, but the level of popularity they have is ridiculous. I came across a decently popular YouTube channel fully devoted to these things... I'm becoming an old man

Most fads don't make sense. That's why they're fads.

They have been around for a while. The real 'popularity' started with the EDC community, and they were lots of $$$, now the kids have them.

Do you not remember when the Yo-Yo was King? Each generation has their fads...

But a yo-yo you can do tricks with. I'm not hating on fidget spinners, just saying I don't get it

You /can/ do tricks with fidget spinners too. Not defending them just pointing it out.
