When I was a child in kindergarten, one time we managed to make two beyblades produce a spark. To this day, that's one of my proudest moments.

They misspelled "fun."

Horrifying, I love it.

It could definitely use a cover for the gears though. It'd be kinda gross to get the lube on your hands using this thing.

No no, I get it.

I do my best not to bother with form.

I just make shit work.

If you wanna pretty up my scripts for some sort of distribution, go for it.

But I'm done with it after that. That's the companies problem now.

They're reporting on a bringus video from 4 months ago.

I remember cutting my hand pretty good on one of the old metal beyblades as a kid. I loved those things

This is the funniest thing I've seen in a while, straight chaos lol

Slay.

No, for real. That thing needs a waiver just to touch it.

I saw one where guys in a shop made their own beyblades and arena out of metal scrap and spun them up with drills, nice healthy boys will be boys masculinity.

I'm sorry that's just rad as hell, masculinity has nothing to do with it, that's just great taste.

The sounds coming off that thing!
