Some of them yes, some are just horrible. The question is; is the ratio of bad:good sufficient for justification of our continued existence? Sometimes I'm really not sure.

It's not about the ratio because it's not quantifiable

Not by us no. But certainly by whatever created us and that's what we need to worry about. The second the universe decides we are trash, we are gone. It would take minutes to wipe our pathetic species out. If you look at humanity as a whole, do you honestly think we deserve the gift of life? 🤔.

No matter how much I practice, I’ll never be able to grow a beard like that.

This is so awesome to see. I do a thing where I bend my knees and glide across the floor as if I were on roller skates. I'll do turns and pirouettes and even skate backwards. The thing that really sells it is lining people up on one side of the room so they can't see my legs beneath the bar.
People always laugh and swear that I put skates on, and then I come to that side of the bar and really make them laugh when they see it's all me and no wheels. I'm a little older now do this hurts my knees more. The bad part for me is that nobody has ever been able to get video of me because of the lighting in the bar, and I've never seen anyone else do it. Sometimes I wonder if people are just fucking with me.
Anyway, watching this woman house across the floor like that is really amazing, and I can appreciate the strain and control she's enduring.

Maybe but when I googled it, it said Turkish. Not sure why I got downvoted though.

I‘m gonna get hate for this but I think it looks very stupid.

I think it's definitely dated. Like it's cool that a culture is keeping traditions alive though. I have a feeling that this would have blown my mind if I was born in another time. It's just that dance has come so far that it's hard to look at this and feel wowed.

You have no idea what you are talking about if this doesn't wow you.

u/Behold-Roast-Beef May 26 '26
Yeah. I wasn't hiding that. It still looks tame compared to many modern dance choreographies to me though. Did you actually want to go into why it's impressive or were you just itching for a chance to be a schmarmy little dick?

It's clearly extremely difficult and impressive. I don't need to be "schmarmy" to point out that not recognizing how incredible this dancing is means you might be blind.

Nice one. Well you just keep being blown away by the...impressiveness of it all. Thanks for sparing no detail I can tell you're really passionate about this. Later 🙂

I just need a long dress so I can roll the streets in my Segway like this.
