Do I Really Hate the DNA?

For those who follow Throw-Yo socials, you’ve been many, many memes based on the DNA. In fact, one might think that I hate the DNA with how much time and mental energy I’ve spent on such memes.

The short answer is, no, I don’t really hate the DNA. Even if I can only do a Responsive DNA.

The long answer is that it’s easy for content creators to constantly do the DNA for their audiences since it has wide appeal. You’ll find no shortage of people doing the DNA with their heaviest yo-yo, their lightest yo-yo, their cheapest yo-yo, a pink yo-yo, etc… They’ll also perform the DNA on a variety of different objects, like pens…or grandma. They’ll even perform it with insanely long strings!

I understand it helps grow the hobby, but sometimes it gets frustrating to see so much DNA when there are other amazing tricks out there, many of which these content creators are more than capable of performing.

Why do I keep making DNA meme? It’s become a bit meta now, and I’ve built up a reputation as despising the DNA. Hell, I even sell a “Don’t DNA” tee and stickers! I guess it’s just a bit funny to continue the gag…even if I’m the only one who thinks so.

In all seriousness, the DNA is an impressive trick. If you enjoy the DNA, keep doing it to your heart’s content. If you like seeing other people do it, keep liking and subscribing. I’m not here to tell you what to do, or how to enjoy what you enjoy. I’m just here to poke a little fun, mostly at myself.
