I know this is a grumpy old man take, but I'll never get over the fact that they decided to call these dastardly things "hoverboards."

Blasphemy, says eight year-old me, having just watched Back to the Future: Part II and now obsessed with someday obtaining a floating skateboard.

Aren't they called gyroscooter? Because here they are.

Ok, did these “hoverboard” things make a sudden comeback? As I remember, they were here, then started catching fire when charging, and then disappeared. Now today, I saw a couple kids riding them, then several miles away, more kids using them, and now this post.

I don't think they ever really went away fully, just stopped being the latest fad.
