They are engines of destruction. At least, the good ones are.

A fidget spinner is a flywheel, basically. You hold onto the center and spin the outside and it keeps spinning for a while because it has a low-friction bearing. The point is to spin the thing instead of fidgeting; it is meant to satisfy the same impulse that makes you tap your foot, or play with your earlobes. It's very similar to a spinning top, only you hold onto it in your hand instead of allowing it to balance itself upright. The only way to actually have fun with a fidget spinner is by spinning it up to 10,000 RPM with an air compressor and a sprayer gun.
Now they are some kind of internet meme.
best thing i have read today
Boy!
Kinda fun. I do fidget pretty often, but it doesn't really turn my fidget crank.
That's kind of depressing actually.
Cheer up, it's bunk
(I mean, some woman DID try to invent a toy to distract Palestinian children, but it wasn't the fidget spinner, even though she tries to take credit for it. The kickstarter video is somewhat hilariously depressing, though. This wasn't even her faux "fidget spinner" idea, though. She originally envisioned a "soft rock" that they could throw instead of real ones. Okay, so the story gets more an more bizarre the further you try to explain it so I gotta stop before this can be used as evidence.)
Yeah, in a couple years at best I see these things being found by the dozen in beat up cardboard boxes at rummage sales
Then ninety years down the line an old man in his hospital bed will softly whisper the the word, "Pyronado..." as a snow globe slips from his frail hands, falling to the floor, his family wondering what these last words could possibly mean.

Nah, babies are punishment for once being a baby. We were all one of those little fuckers at one time.
I've often wondered why we dont just raise all kids in communal schools/farms like in Gullivers Travels. Sure, it'd probably be devastating for family bonds, but I belive the peace and quiet would make up for it.
Bottom line? The pioneers made a better fidget spinner. And those guys played with inflated sheep bladders.
and people think cholera was vectored by drinking bad and unboiled water... it was actually boredom...

I had one of those that was 2 disks, and they would clack when they reversed direction. You could get a good rhythm going. Very satisfying.
I totally added it subconsciously and now am paranoid people have been doing all the time and I've never noticed.
Just like we've been adding the "it" for you this whole time.
The porn music is oddly apropos.
