@JT954 I sometimes wish the poll would let you chose multiple options. I really wanted to chose the “bad name” one but had to go with “too scared:” I have -1 balance ability (scale 1-10, and yes I gave myself a negative number).
The name is the only reason I hated them. The fact they started showing up so close to BttF day really made it burn. I want a hoverboard, not a disoriented electric skateboard! How dare you take that name in vain?!

When you find a web page that has an image you want:
Right-click on the image to open it in a new tab.
If, when you open the image into a new tab, the URL ends in an image extension such as .jpg or .jpeg or .gif or another image file type, copy that new URL and paste that URL into a post here at Meh.
Sometimes this does not work. Notably, for images hosted on amazon.com. and a few other image hosts.
@f00l thank you, yeah, that is what i typically do but i was on my phone which forced open the pinterest app so i couldn’t get to it properly. i’m sure there’s an easy way around that as well but i was trying to be an engaged copilot thanks again for picking up the slack!
I own this exact model and used to commute to work on it. After about a year the battery pooped out and I can’t get it to hold charge for more than 10-ish minutes It’s super fun though!
Of course, I payed a premium for it (quite a bit more than $144) so I’d say it’s worth it to get a year of hover-boarding for that price
If it has wheels, it doesn’t hover.
@JT954 unless it has wheels for when you travel to times without hover tech, and need to keep a low profile.

Heck no.
If we were meant to ride those things…
We would have been born with wheels with exploding batteries on our feet.
haha I knew before I voted that the meh community would hate the name hover board out of principal.
Boooold move bringing those contraptions here.
I know a guy who fractured the shit out of one of his wrists (being anatomically specific here) after saying that it was “stupid”.
I think the Hoverboards may be intelligent. How do we know that they like us standing on them?
Which marketing idiot is responsible for selecting the worst name that was available?
awhile back i saw this sign on the door to our local grocery store and i knew we had finally gone back to the future.
(i guess i never did upload it anywhere so let’s see if this works…)

Fixed.
@f00l thank you! i was on my phone in the car (not driving) so i didn’t have the patience/ability to get it to do what i wanted
@narfcake think they could use a few apostrophes?

Not enough FAIL gifs in this thread. Sad.

@medz best comment of the day. I would log into my other 3 accounts to star it a few more times, but I’m too lazy.

@GeorgeSully You can get new batteries, I’m sure.
The Children were here with their hoverboards several times in weeks past. Their flagrant youth and joy upset the natural balance.
