I'm trying to describe these things in case it wasn't clear:

He kept going I don't understand how you play this game.

Despite me and one other person going: it's not a game. It's just a tactile thing.

He still didn't get it.

Hey, at least it's not the pimple one...

Omg that's a good point

He kept thinking it was for a complicated game of tic tac toe

We were gifted with a bag of them to give out to kids on the charity run we're doing in 2 weeks and he wanted to toss them because he didn't think kids would "get" how to play with them

Kids don't need to "get" a toy to have fun with it.

Me and other girl talked him into keeping them. I think the fact that she has a kid helped him believe us.

I think the main fad for them has mostly passed (and probably why someone donated a bunch to us) but kids will probably just be happy to have free stuff

Let's be real, he didn't want to toss them because kids wouldn't understand. HE doesn't understand them so he wanted to toss them. Anyone who has been around children in the last five years will see these all over their things, on phone cases, key chains or other things they keep on them. They're at every market or toy section. You can't miss them.

Yuuuuuuup

My husband has a saying about his family being like this: If it's different, I don't understand, and if I don't understand? It's bad.
