I'm not a historian so it isn't my place to say buuuut, it's really funny that it has to be a weapon for some people... Idk man, ancient Greeks also had the concept of "fun"

I dont care about all this sh8, the fact that Yo-yo is an Ilokano word, played by Filipinos, introduce and popularized by a Filipino is what we all need.
