i was wondering is there a time and place for one to be practicing pen spinning. Take me for example, i basically carry my BICtory where ever i go (seeing how it doesn't fit in my pencil case) and sometimes when i'm taking the tram to swimming, i will take it out and start practicing fingerpass or whatever.
I just want to know where u guys do most of your practicing, where you think it would be acceptable taking out a pen and spinning it and where it would not be. eg the toilet -

Tha manipulator hator club. I just made that up but it would be quite inappropriate to start spinning there:D
Everyone spins in class and though teacher's don't think it is acceptable. They're wrong lol.
We keep all the stationary sellers from going out of business. Yeah, we can be handy at times. -

i hate spinning when i'm standing up and walking. if the pen drops, i have a hard time picking it up, especially is it's a crowded place.

I dont like to spin when im walking on crowded places and not in the bus. On the most other places i spin or make some flourishes.

I only spin when I'm sitting down. I'm usually sitting down when I'm at work, at home, or in the car. THAT'S IT. I don't spin in front of my co-workers.

I spin when I'm sitting so at home (in front of TV or computer, while reading, learning
) and in school ( I don't spin only on chemistry and history lessons coz teachers don,t like it 
)
and in school I try to spin only Monami 153 MX retractable so it don't look as weird as some pens

i try not to spin while walking/running/jogging/standing up. Usually, it's because i'm to lazy to bend over and pick up a pen after i've dropped it. Spinning while running/jogging just isn't a good idea.
if there's something important going on, i.e. someone is speaking, i try not to spin to be polite. -

You can virtually spin everywhere... BUT, damn, you wouldn't spin in a funeral. xD. It depends on the situation.
.
I usually spin at school, sitting down while listening to the Biology teacher (or any other teacher, but I mostly spin in her class because she makes everyone fall asleep). I spin in my bedroom, while surfing on the interwebz XD.

I used to spin all the time and everywhere. Now I just spin at home, infront of the comupter.
But I still carry around a pen if I need to kill like 5 min. -

I usually spin during classes at school. It depends where you sitting, I can't spin when I'm sitting in the front row. Mostly, I spin at home.
-

I will spin anywhere and in any condition. except for super super super cold days. I prefer it to be around 72 F so my palms arent too sticky from the cold and arent too sweaty from the heat.
-

ide spin anywhere except when i stand up.
even in church.
whocares if its at an inapprporiate time.
after all, theres a reason why your pen spinning is more important at the time! -
Date: Wed, Sep 12 2007 00:50:55
whenever i feel like it?
i usually don't spin at school though, since they've got de-humidifiers and the ac turned way up, so my hands are constantly dry, making it harder to spin. -
Date: Wed, Sep 12 2007 02:19:44
With the exception of being in class, i dont spin in public. Usually at home/work or studying in the library.

If theres a pen in my hand, I spin it. If it drops I leave it there.

I spin in class only.

I used to spin everywhere I could but now I'm spinning only at home.

I spin during class, but try not to do anything crazy that might cause the pen to go flying. It's hard for me since I'm tempted to do aerials all the time.
Other than that; at home in front of the computer, when I go out with friends, and whenever I go to relatives' houses. Actually, I spin about anywhere I can, now I that I think about it.
...I even took some pens with me while I went camping. -
Date: Tue, Sep 18 2007 14:23:18
Well, i only bring my pens out when i got a bag or pencil case with me. Normally i spin at home, I don't spin in public because i'm not good enough. I seldom spin at relative's houses unless i stay there for a whole day and there is no one around me. Sometimes i spin in class when i have a pen in my hand(not any mod, just simple clip-off pen. I'm too lazy to keep open-close the bictory cap and afraid of losing it
) I try not to spin when i'm talking to somebody but occasionally i spin when i'm having chats with a group of friends who already knew me does pen spinning(when not my turn talking).
I think it is quite impolite to spin when talking with somebody or doing something important/formal. -
Date: Tue, Sep 18 2007 14:40:11
At school and at home, walking or sitting. I also spin while waiting for programs to boot up on my DS or computer.
I used to spin on the bus and at the office (while I was still working). -

I spin everywhere except on the bus, while walking in school, when having an important conversation, during important classes etc. Basically I spin when I can. The only problem is spinning when I'm in school because if it goes flying I'm screwed. I can't spin when my hands get clammy though, I prefer it to be pretty dry. Sometimes I will even wash my hands just because they are too moist for spinning.

i do it a load in school - once my english teacher noticed me doing TA harmonic and was impressed then tried it himself , he did some weird 180 kinda thing(??) lol -

At certain times, like when I'm on the train on my way to school, I do not spin even though I would actually want to. Firstly it's crowded. There's a risk that I would drop my pen even onto someone else, which would be pretty... awkward. Secondly, even though I sometimes enjoy some attention, I do not like half the passengers of a train staring at me. At such times, I rather solve Rubik's Cube, with which people are familiar atleast.
