Yo those are legit! We have them under the carpet in the terra shop. They’re perfect. Actually, the most recent setup is those foam tiles, then the thickest underlay you can buy, and then our carpet. Dama perfection
How to tell you're a dama nerd. . . you start discussing the finer points of carpet, floor padding, and wood floors NOT as they relate to interior design but strictly from impact absorption perspective.
@ben wunderlich @Carlos Habbenero I bought some at Home Depot, but there are probably other places too
When you have a self-made pillow that looks like a kendama. I got it as a christmas-present from my mother.
It's just a toy. Generally for kids. Why do I find myself cleaning kendama with table napkins cleaning/wiping kendama while waiting on my meal inside a food store? Just one time. Why do I have to take it out in the first place. Why do I even brough one with me. Oh just one time, one time...
You know that you are a dama nerd when you start calling your kendamas "he" or "she" instead of "it."
When there is a dedicated space full of kendamas, then you eander into another room and find more kendamas. Go upstairs, find another kendama. Go to car, more kendamas. Open a random box, kendama stickers. Everything has a dama sticker. When they post a thread like this (or reply) NERDS
When you open your drawer and see it chock full of Fuck'in Kendama boxers, that is a life well lived.
Dents in the drywall; I have so many of these in my room that my Mom is going to sign me up for a drywall class at Home Depot to fix all the dents in the walls in my room and throughout the house
When you drop your kendama on something breakable but you frantically check your dama first to see if it's ok
