its annoying because there’s no reason to like it. You might as well play with a rock for free

back in my day, on the 80s we had keys and bubble wrap. actually, I still have keys, and they spin!

I think at some point it will definitely become economical to open up the landfills. Especially considering everything that got dumped in the years before widespread recycling. There will be some nanotechnology or advanced chemistry which will make it possible.

Many, many years ago I read a scifi story and the only memorable part was that one of the main characters was a billionaire because he bought all the garbage dumps and had a way to recycle all the materials in the dumps and turn a profit. All the metals, plastics, glass, etc. just sitting there waiting for a cost

I was at a baby shower recently and this kid got out his pencil bag and it had 10 different spinners in there. I don’t even think he did anything with they, just laid them out on the table and stared.

I remember that the very best thing of all was there’s a counter on the ball.

Plus if they made it clear it could be sold as an educational toy.

Somebody make a video of someone riding a hoover board, with this fidget spinner and a Galaxy 7 in their back pocket, on 4th of July.

Or a workplace where the adults have the maturity level of a bunch of fourth graders.

I’m not talking a hand crank brush kind of thing...

The fact that it’s a bluetooth speaker equipped spinner.

Some people just want to watch the world burn, literally.

Nope a speaker(s).
Some have lights too.

Hell even if you wanted that feature couldn’t they just make some sort of mechanical counter using a basic gear system? I’m probably over thinking this, especially from the standpoint of people that are designing these things.

Ummm... Putting aside their stupidness, considering their design, why not just charge themselves...

I didn’t realize they existed either until I read this article.

We’re trying to exhaust the Earth’s supply of rare-earth minerals that are necessary for electronics and batteries just as quickly as possible. Decades from now when they have to go through landfills to recover raw materials they’ll be saying “the spinny thing had to have a battery and charger? what the FUCK people?”

Considering that it’s irritating as fuck to have people doing this all the time around me, yeah I’d love for it to happen too.

“Bluetooth-enabled fidget spinner”

Yeah, if someone could get the rest to explode all at once, that’d be great.
