Haters

[Japjap]

My parents hate diaboloing (after 10:00 p.m..)

[Kusti]

Those kids, of which tommi was talking about, piss me off. My english vocabulary isn't wide enough to describe my fealings towards those little pests. Most of t3h k1dz are ok. But some are just plain rude and annoying, giving diaboloing a bad name. It's a craze here, the diabolo I mean.

I think you managed well with your vocabulary. And I wholeheartedly agree with you. Kids are usually ok, but these kids here in Kuopio are annoying. They ask questions (that's not bad, but when it gets to the point that they don't stop it's really annoying), then they also want to try your diabolos. I once made the mistake of letting a kid try mine. I'm glad I still have it.    I hope this is just one of those things that comes and goes and soon they won't be diaboloing anymore. Of course it's good if diaboloing becomes more popular, but not like this. I'm glad I'm going to Canada to spend the summer again so I can practice without these pests.

Haha, I can see why this thread is simply named "haters" as opposed to "diabolo haters", seems like some of us hate "normal" people just as much as some of them hate us

it annoys me how i pull out this massive mini-gen combo, that was flawless and the crowd still like cats cradle more.

i know thats the way the world works, but its just annoying!

sigh, too bad Jello Biafra was/is a total douchebag and there is no way that quote actually has any meaning

by the way, i cant imagine anyone diaboloing in a pub in america, well we don't really have pubs per se, but still, it just doesn't really make sense. i get hella stares just from diaboloing in general. a lot of people were avoiding me when i diaboloed in Times Square...

going off what scooby said, i hate the fact that the biggest crowd pleaser is and will always be the elevator!!! i hate that trick with a passion!!!

A similar group to HATERS are IGNORERS.
These are people who walk by as if they had already seen five other guys doing 2 diabolos on a skatebike that  morning. (Believe me they haven't around here. I'm it.)

I'm not looking for applause, I just think it's amazing that some people can have so little curiousity.

well, that's just very personal I think. There is a friend of mine who comes around sometimes, and when we are in the garden I just diabolo while we talk, and she never looks at the diabolo's, she just doesn't give a ****. But most people make remarks like: "you have no idea how cool that looks" and stuff like that.

No, that's JiBe.

Haters - We have pretty high ceilings in my house, but, as with a diabolo, that's not enough.  So, now, let's just say, I have to get on a ladder and paint the entire ceiling in our living room from black marks.        I've also gotten diabolos banned from my school from knocking out a ceiling tile.  

Ignorers:  Diabolos, to most people, are amazing for about fifteen minutes, then they just get boring, at least to the people not doing them.    Most of the time when I'm talking to friends and other stuff, I just do it and they pretty much completely ignore it, and just act like I'm not doing anything.
