While penspinning during class, have any of you had an experience where someone would go up to you and say.."Oh my god thats amazing!! Teach me!" XD
xz64 - July 19, 2006 12:41 AM (GMT)
nope, all they say is "how do u do that???"
FinalFantasyFanatic - July 19, 2006 12:42 AM (GMT)
Oh, It's a very funy experience. One time I was doing charge in class the someone was like "OMG How do you make it spin in circles? Thats impossible!" Then I give them a link to a UCPSB Collab XD

Oddly enough I haven't got many people asking me to teach them but quite a few have just asked me to show them some cool looking tricks.

Yeah I think it does, because if you are in 3 or more clubs in High School, that goes on your college record. Creating a club is kind of the same in a way.

UnEmploymentDude - July 19, 2006 03:16 AM (GMT)
I might start a club,... during computer club,... I am such a geek,....
And I mostly get this: "WTF" *Blank stare* ITS CREEPY I TELLS YA!
Joshua - July 19, 2006 03:17 AM (GMT)
I usually take notes during classes.. You kind of have to in college courses. haha
Anyway, when I do spin a Dr. Grip or Pencil in class I get the occational, "How do you do that?", or "Where did you learn that?". But most of the time its inbetween classes, or during a break when I'm in the halls of a building or just sitting in a lounge when someone asks if I can show them "that trick" --- Which is when I do my Teaching TA in 1 minute Trick. My fastest time for teaching someone to do a TA is 38 seconds, if I remember correctly. They got it they're second try and couldnt believe it. :)
Eburt - July 19, 2006 03:19 AM (GMT)
I taught someone sonic on their first try... and thats harder to understand than a TA... then they couldn't get it for a day :P

"yea! wtf!" then he did some twisted sonic bust or something on the first try too, dunno what trick... DAMMIT I HATE HIM I WANNA LEARN TRICKS THAT FAST TOO! :P

edit : and yeah i got alot of "What the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck?!"s too :P i thaught like ten guys in my class ta and almost a teacher lol
FallenSeraph - July 19, 2006 03:42 PM (GMT)
blah its so impossible for me to teach ppl. only thing ive done is teach sonic to someone who already knew charge, since most of the ppl in my school know how to do charge already.
silentps - July 19, 2006 05:26 PM (GMT)
Wow you all get mostly positive 'reactions' about ps.. I got a "You should get a life" a few times, "this is for mentally retarded people" once.. but i also got some nice reactions like "Wow thats really cool" or "Could you teach me the trick your doing?". I taught TA to a few people and someone got sonic on their 2nd try.. Teaching tricks is fun but some people give up after 2 mins and say its impossible.
FallenSeraph - July 19, 2006 05:53 PM (GMT)
u mean most ppl give up after 2mins...
i hate it when they ask u to teach, but after seeing that they cant learn it in 2 seconds they give up. i mean is that the attitude ur gonna go through life wit? nothing worth having is free
sketching - July 19, 2006 07:04 PM (GMT)
I'm ignored since I only do a few tricks in class. Most of time I'm actually doing classwork in class. When I'm drawing with a wooden pencil, I do a lot of Backarounds. Baks feel so good with a hexagonal pencil. I mostly take notes with my Dr. Grip and only do combos of Sonics, Passes and TAs in-between notes. Sometimes I'll whip out my RSVG2 for notes and do a few more tricks.
patte - July 19, 2006 07:13 PM (GMT)
everyone in my class says wtf...
one dude can do ta with both hands now , although he is the most complete retard of my class
and a other guy "biscuit" he can do like idk ta harmonic, sonic rise harmonics, twisted sonic bust, bak , rev lf ta, neobaks , infinity, elbow pop and catch
ya
Ivan the Terrible - July 19, 2006 07:29 PM (GMT)
iny my school nobody notices me, sometimes someone says i'm an idiot cause i penspin but i don't react. But quite some people learned a few tricks since i started, like 3 girls can fingerpass, 1 can TA, a guy (thats an idiot) can do infinitys to triple, charges, sonic abd fingerpass, another guy can do a few infinity variations and one can fingerpass
JooJoo - July 19, 2006 08:14 PM (GMT)
I was doing a TA in my math class. Then the entire class started to try it without much success. My teacher got so annoyed that he said If he heard another pencil drop, He'd triple our homework :(
I've gotten some mixed reactions about it, but I'm starting to get my friends into pen spinning.
Toast - July 19, 2006 11:11 PM (GMT)

Alucard - July 19, 2006 11:31 PM (GMT)

That happened to me! Except it was with like 2 other students, 1 gave up 20 seconds later, the other got his pen taken away! I actruly did them correctly so I kept my pen!
