Twerking ... Am I really THAT old!!??
So ... I'm reading an article about some students who got suspended for shooting "an awesome twerking video" ... using school resources and equipment.
And then I'm wondering, what the heck is "twerking?"
So, being the modern up-to-date guy I am, I Google it and find this:
http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/05/03/an-old-person-s-guide-to-twerking.html
It's "An OLD PERSON'S guide to twerking."
Fortunately, it had a video with a rap song as a visual aid. (And a really unusual ad to lead into the video.)
Unfortunately, I think I threw my back out just watching it.
Holy cow ... how do people do THAT???

So basically having zero self respect and acting like an animal, tossing out every social refinement developed over the past 800 years. Gotcha.
I was just reading the same article and also wondered what twerking is, but I watched the video the kids shot instead of googling. When I was reading the article I thought, "Sheesh! Schools are getting ridiculously strict." After watching the video I thought, "Sheesh! Kids are getting ridiculously stupid!" Butt seriously... banning them from prom and graduation is a bit extreme. Back in our high school days there were students streaking and mooning at school events on school property. They got after school detention and if they were in extra-curricular activities they got benched. They weren't suspended from school and denied attending prom and graduation because they pulled stupid teenage pranks that didn't get anyone killed or injured. Schools need to lighten up and help kids smarten up.
Love the ad -- twerking, not so much!
Hehe! Sparky says that they must have some special muscles that he doesn't possess! I don't think I could twerk even if I had a brain transplant that made me want to! I did however laugh out loud...
I wonder how similar belly dancing is to twerking? I doubt that the internet has an explanation.
I used to call it "booty dancing." When you get really good at it, it's called "twerkalating." Don't ask how I know.
Psy's next video in 3...2....
Ugh, twerking is gross...
Also kind of funny...
Give them an A in exercise for being able to do it.
