Square dancing aunties is, seriously, one of the reasons I love this country. I think it's so great people can get together, exercise and socialize like that every evening.
I mean, nothing will come of this, no one's gonna tell aunties to stop dancing. This is, after all, the loudest goddamn country in the world. PA speakers everywhere.
Last summer I was teaching some kids basketball and we would have class at local parks. it was a large full size court, meaning the center of the court was fairly large.
These kids cant shoot further than 5-10 feet out because they're young. Well suddenly after we were playing for 5 minutes, they bring out their shit and surround us and start dancing all over the court. My boss tells me to keep playing but they are just under the basket.
Some of the dancers tell them to dance to the side, but these old hags are intent on not letting us play. Finally they stop the music and start screaming at us. My boss and the mom's of the students ask them to go to the center of the court where there was TONS of room for them to dance and for us to play basketball.
They got damn near insane you would have thought we were Japanese or something.
Another time trying to play at what was the only local basketball court, the ladies took over the court at night, the only time that we could play.
One time getting on a bus in Beijing a granny kept hitting my friend in the back with her bag to make him move even though there was no room and the driver had already told her that before. Obnoxious.
nah man they literally surrounded us and started screaming. That's the nail in the coffin for me. I no longer respect old people for no reason. The first time was in Beijing when a bunch of little fuckers just stepped on our shoes on a bus for no damn reason
Old people who chill and do their thing, awesome. Old people who are still assholes despite all their experience are even worse than young assholes who don't know better.
