Don't worry. I'm sure we'll fail to file the correct paperwork and lose our Anti-Yo-Yo funding before the month is out.

So much for my live-action staging of "StarTropics" in Hoboken.

My guess is that every yo-yo themed headline is greenlit for exactly this reason.

Yo-yos a no-no in Hobo(ken).

Well, we dodged a bullet on that one. It's time to outlaw string, twine, yarn, and thread.

Won't someone think of the children?

/don't even think of outlawing bullets

In before "Bag o' Glass"

The yo-yo was actually used as a weapon. At least that's what the movie where the mercenary works in the ghetto high school and reaches the kids by being tough and then shoots the principal. That was awsome.

Those guys must be millionaires!

I bet they get all kinds of girls!

Good on NJ for getting rid of the corruption and fixing the financial thing. You'd think that would have gotten a mention before the yo-yo thing as it seems to be more important.

"Abyssmal," the stupid mistake in the BP headline -- are there illiterates running this place?

That's a guy, right?

Ugh, that "having solved all other problems . . . " trope is so tired, subby! It sure is important that we cure cancer, but meanwhile we have to get the trash picked up every week.

How can New Jersey worry about yoyos when they have
things like this living in their sewers?

Velcro shoes only from here on out kids, because your dumbass might wrap something around your neck. Also, sorry but we can't sell anything smaller than a softball, because your dumbass might try to swallow it.

How about not leaving a 5 year old unsupervised long enough to try to kill themselves with anything? I'd like to be able to buy kitchen knives without your kids ruining that for me too.

They want to ban Obama from New Jersey?

Wouldn't she have injured herself with any string like that?

TFA does not mention yo-yos. It talks about yo-yo toys, probably because no one knows what to call the item in question. It has a string. It must be a yo-yo. One thing these toys are not is yo-yos.

I'm pretty good with a yo-yo and always keep a Duncan Imperial or two around with which to show off. These toys are not yo-yos.

"An after-hours message left at the company's Carmel, Ind., headquarters was not immediately returned."

Maybe because it was after-hours?

You call them dangerous toys, I call them Darwin-assists.
 
2010-09-01 05:58:27 PM
Man...I had four yo-yos as a kid. That could have been me...

Nah, I actually knew how to use a yo-yo. Was good enough with one to use it as a range weapon to hit my sister with it. Good times.

Anyone who's good with a yo-yo realizes how worthless imperials are for anything other than as a paperweight. Your argument is invalid.

Damn, and here I thought they were going after dingalings who drive or use firearms while drunk.

Now THOSE are dangerous yo-yos. Those thingys with the strings? Child's play.

What the fark is that? And could you warn a motherfarker first?

Will be steering clear of "Joisey" from now on.

You won't get any warning when one comes up through the toilet while you're sitting on it.

Like, the best you can hope for is maimed genitalia.
