"Hover board" rant

[YLWFVR]

Can we please STOP calling these stupid things hover boards? You're still on the damn ground. Clearly someone forgot to check the definition of what hover means.

"1. To remain floating, suspended, or fluttering in the air"

Clearly that is NOT the case with these things. A hover board is what Marty Mcfly used to get away from Griff Tannen and his gang in hill valley.


I'm glad to see all these people getting caught on fire. It's what they get for buying these stupid things.

Segway was different. Was not misleading about what it was.

If they called it a 2-wheeled electric skateboard, it wouldn't sell. Call it a hoverboard, and everybody and their momma wants one.

Agreed, there is nothing about it that hovers. The misplaced name itself is annoying.
