I have to admit, I did buy a nice fidget spinner. ;)
Mid-20s today? Yeah. Ok.
In your 40s today? Welp...
It still makes a great cat toy!
Ok, that I haven't considered. Old unsold cat toys should be repackaged as cat toys!
The new packaging could say "Remember these stupid things? Well cats still LOVE them! Watch your cat lose their fucking mind! It's hilarious seeing their little fur brains try to comprehend these simple toys!"
I'd buy a spinner toy like that. Planking however was ALWAYS stupid, and everyone who did it should feel shame.
I'm 40+ and still love spinners :)
I’m 48 and just bought a fancy one from Etsy.
Got one after the craze had died down and they're surprisingly fun - just a good quality desk toy
I was so furious that my fidget spinner started to graze insanely after 3 days. I liked that trend ngl.
I had 6, and today I have 0. Yep, I lost all my fidget spinners.
I did not buy any, but got one as a gift. Was embarrassed to use it in public, but genuinely enjoyed. All because since earlier than I can remember, I require keeping my hands busy with something.
I recently bought a nice hand machined metal one. It helps me focus when doing email
