If you can work on your grammar and make a ACTUAL reason for why they are, then I might agree with you.

I agree that "cancer" is an overused word/insult on the Internet and has no meaning anymore.

I like fidget spinners, but I don't like the craze it has, as well as people marketing it as a fidget spinner. It's a toy and I wouldn't mind having one because I'm a kid inside.

I don't need anyone to tell me that it improves work performances in order to get one. I'll just get one because I like spinning toys as they make me think of how amazing the world is and the physics behind it. I want to spin one and rotate my hand to feel the spinner resisting my hand's rotation. I want to put it on something as it spins to see if it balances until it stops spinning.

I don't need to call it a stress reliever to seek out what, in this particular case, essentially means "kid's toy for adults".

Nah they just exploded like any new cool new toy, except that this shit's for people that fidget a lot (anyone else bounces their leg?) or need to focus and people who don't need it at all just went and blew it up. Personally I would kill for one of those cuz that shit would help improve my attention

Bingo. I remember when i was elementary school, you had to have pogs to be cool.

Don't worry OP, give it another month, they'll die down. The market is literally FLOODED now where every store sells them. Kids will move on to something else shortly.

who cares, they're gonna come and they're gonna go, just like everything else.

this fad looks like it's gonna be super short-lived too, because the novelty is already wearing off

I like the fidget controllers. But the only place that sells them wants $20 bucks for it. What a gyp.

No I don't agree. They are literally just toys, who the fuck gives a shit? Why is it that every time there is a new popular trend, everyone has to fucking hate on it. I'm not just pointing out fidget spinners, but any trend in general. Some trends are normal, nothing much annoying to them, but they still get so much hate.

But in general, yeah I kinda like fidget spinners, I just play with it when I'm bored, I don't play much though.

You can say the same about Pogs

Garbage pail kid stickers

it's just the a byproduct of the era, it will eventually fade in obscurity.

Because 30 year olds have them but in all seriousness fidget spinners were made for people ocd,add, adh social anxiety and autism and now kids and adults are using them as a toy, cancer is when cells fuck up and replicate wrong a 30 year old using a fidget spinner because its the new vape in a sociological view draws parallels with cancer.

its just a thing that was supposed to help with ADHD, its popularity was by mistake. I think what you mean to say is that anything considered 'trendy' is cancer.

@DoctNik @asdfsilax

Actually, there are no studies to back up this claim.

Here's a decent article: http://time.com/money/4774133/fidget-spinners-adhd-anxiety-stress/

There are many more articles claiming that psychologists are highly skeptical with these claims.

I doubt it helps thats just what they first tryed to sell it as.

Response to fidget spinner is cancer 2017-06-02 22:37:01


Just because it's a fad doesn't mean it's bad.

If you don't like it, that's okay. But you shouldn't say it's cancer.
