[battleroyale]

Multiply Times Two.

[masterazn]

Not exactly. Someone teach me.

[Machina]

I've never tried, so probably no :prop:

[DOC]

I think you might have to define dance here. I can flail around alot and make it look like I know what im doing, so no, I can't.

[Seven Fisher]

*Dances* *falls on ground*

Looks like I can't dance...well I can, but not good enough. Meh, never really like dancing anyway. Apart from Dancing Stage games, that is.

Ssss-aaaa-ffff-eeee-tttt-yyyy
Safety-dance!

Ah we can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well they’re are no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to, a place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind,
And we can dance

We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well they’re are no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to a place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dance.

Dancez!

Ah we can go when we want to the night is young and so am i
And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet
And surprise ’em with the victory cry

I say we can act if want to if we don’t nobody will
And you can act real rude and totally removed
And I can act like an imbecile
I say we can dance, we can dance everything out control
We can dance, we can dance we’re doing it wall to wall
We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance everybody takin’ the chance
Safety dance
Oh well the safety dance
Ah yes the safety dance

Ssss-aaaa-ffff-eeee-tttt-yyyy
Safety-dance

We can dance if we want to, we’ve got all your life and mine
As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it
Everything’ll work out right
I say, we can dance if we want to we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well they’re are no friends of mine

I say we can dance, we can dance everything out of control
We can dance, we can dance we’re doing it wall to wall
We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance everybody’s takin’ the chance

Oh well the safety dance
Ah yes the safety dance
Oh well the safety dance
Oh well the safety dance
Oh yes the safety dance
Oh the safety dance yeah
Oh it’s the safety dance

Oh it’s the safety dance
Oh it’s the safety dance

I can get a little bump and grind goin with the females at the club, but when it comes to skilled dancing, "Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is full"

[{KOW}Spazed]

I can a bit, enough to get me through a school dance or two. Luckily the GF isn't big into dancing either.

[Keldaris]

I can waltz, Swingdance/Jive, and i used to be able to do the foxtrot.

According to Scott Adams, this is how to dance:



How to Dance

There was a time when I considered writing a self help book. But then I realized it’s logically impossible. If you think about it, a self help book is really just an author trying to help your sorry ***. It’s not as if you wrote the book yourself. It’s not even close to being “self help.” So stop taking credit for other people helping you. That’s all I’m saying.

But speaking of helping you, recently I wrote a blog entry in which I explained my formula for humor. The feedback was so positive that I experienced a tiny yet perceptible sensation of joy. I will try to reproduce that feeling by extending my teaching to the art of dance. Specifically, I will attempt to teach the dance-challenged among my readers (okay, the hetero guys) how to move on the dance floor in a way that does not invite spectators to point and snicker.

I feel your pain, because for many years I desperately wanted to know how to dance in a less frighteningly retarded manner. I knew there must be some formula, and if I could just learn it, I would be the king of the dance floor. I approached this problem the way I approach most things, by asking questions of those who have talent. I wanted to know the tricks and techniques involved. Predictably, the selfish dancing bastards would give me useless suggestions such as “Try to feel the rhythm” or “Just do what comes naturally.” This advice, plus large amounts of Grey Goose, produced in me a movement that could only be described as Turbo-Dork.

But I am observant if nothing else. And so I made it my personal project to closely observe the best dancers, hoping to discover what separates the movers from the flailers. One day it hit me. There is indeed a simple secret, and when I employed it, I transformed instantly from a Turbo-dork to a mildy uncoordinated guy. It wasn’t a clean win – I grant you that – but it was enough to temper the pointing and laughing.

The secret is this: hip movement.

That’s it. End of story. So simple, yet so powerful. You can test my secret formula for yourself. First, try dancing in front of the bathroom mirror by NOT moving your hips. Feel free to wave your arms and legs in whatever fashion seems most dancish to you. The horror that you observe will likely cause you to puke on the vanity.

Now try it again, but this time move your hips to the beat, and don’t pay much attention to your arms or legs. Yes, you should be moving those arms and legs, but you’ll find that they don’t matter. Now look in the mirror and behold. You are dancing less dorkishly then ever before. It’s all about the hips.

At this point you’re also effectively ***, but there’s nothing wrong with that. It might even attract some hot women who are looking for a safe guy to dance with. And believe me, when they see your hips moving to the beat, they won’t be worried about you.

my girlfriend got me on the dance floor once,after a minute she made me sit down and hoped there was nobody who saw that.:cry:

[Jigga-Scrooge]

david bowies song 1984 makes me dance.

[Sir EvilFreeSmeg]

You're asking a cowboy if he knows how to dance??? Country swing, waltz, two-step, 10 step, cha-cha, funky chicken, etc. Of course I have to be REALLY drunk to get me out there.

[Bortaz]

Like most drunk dancers, you probably look like you're suffering from Mad Cow Disease when you dance.

[Tor]

i got sent to manner school so i know how to ballroom dance....

[Sir EvilFreeSmeg]

Can is to Do as Edible is to Tasty. I dont' dance.

Safety-dance!

Safety dance, safety dance, everybody look at your pants...

[stormrage112345]

storm can can-can and mosh.

[[exile]]

Safety dance, safety dance, everybody look at your pants...
If you're quoting The Simpsons, I could've sworn it was "You can dance, you can dance, everybody look at your pants..."

I can do basic clubbing crap, a bit of improperly-taught Hip-Hop, and the basic power moves and footwork of Breakdancing. Nothing particularly stylish or classic.

[Dondrei]

']If you're quoting The Simpsons, I could've sworn it was "You can dance, you can dance, everybody look at your pants..."

I've been pwned!

You're just like my wife - every time I quote something she corrects me so it's verbatim...

[Hatsepsut]

Yes, yes I can. :D

Not necessarily. My wife is an awesome dancer. There are good male dancers as well, but I'm just not one of them. Just seemed to have a lot of coincidental factors running through my head.

I'll stop defending my spam now...

Ug ug, I meant the two together. White chicks can dance...but I have yet to see a single White male who can dance to a high standard, other than that annoying idiot Justin Timberlake...



Arb

[kobold]

annoying idiot Justin Timberlake...


Exactly the reason we need to have public canings/stonings...

[Isolde212]

I can dance. I took ballet for several years and I spent most of time from the age 17-22 years club hopping for some foresaken reason.

Oh I can lapdance too.



*gives Rafty erotic lapdance*

[Arbedark]

Rafty has all the fun :sad:



Abre

[publius]

Well...I can kinda waltz and swing, and couple of others, despite not being very good at it (in anticipation of the comments I may receive, I'm secure enough in my manliness to know such things. Plus the girls like it :thumbsup: )*

Or did you mean "dance" as in go to a club and act like a human metronome? Because in that case, of course, who can't?





* By the way, if anyone has a really long memory of me during the last OTF movie, a lot has changed since then.

[Dirty_Zulu]

I can dance as well as these guys can >> How to dance like a white guy (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3689560270595414198)

The guy at the end in red sweater got some moves.

[Steel_Avatar]

Yes (http://www3.telus.net/604wanderer/images/ny.jpg) :) I haven't had time for competitions this school year though :(

Have you ever heard of Mikhail Baryshnikov...?

[pedu]

Hmm, i cant dance some wals or something the same time im being relaxed and thinking about something else than to where to move my foot next... :rolleyes:

[Ce Olba]

About 6 years ago, i took my very first breakdance lessons. I've been doing breakdance for that 6 years now, with a few breaks in it. And no, I'm not that GOOD, but for a kid of the age of 15, i'm at least decent.

As for the fancy dances, i can waltz. All the girls on my class were all like "wtf?!" when i waltzed as I would've waltzed a gillion times before. But in reality, my grandma taught me well. As for having a hobby of dancing, i rarely lose my focus. Except i got myself embarassed when i found myself staring at my partners tits and i was barely moving, except the basic move, but i wasn't doing 'round. Then i got a hang of myself. Luckily everyone was so focused on not screwing up that they didn't probably notice it. This happened about a month ago in our P.E. class.

[Kaysaar]

I can do most dancing if I put my mind to it. I learned in Mexico because I kept on getting dragged onto the dance floor by girls :wink3:
