11 Dance Moves That Need To Disappear

Stop, just stop.

Here is an unpopular opinion, those "dance moves" that are popular today, make you look really dumb. Throwing your face in the bend of your elbow is not dancing. Twerking makes most people really uncomfortable. Women complain about being sexual objects but still go around shaking their butts. I may be just an old soul but randomly moving your arms and shaking your butt does not require as much effort as real dancing should. I also included some older dance moves as well.

1. Twerking

An excuse for people to stare at your butt and it makes most people uncomfortable.

2. The modern day Running Man

The dance craze that everyone was doing in memes and videos was the Running Man. Which oddly looks nothing like the actual Running Man.

3. Dabbing

You look like you sneezed or broke your neck. Stop, please, just stop. I admit it is hilarious when little kids or elders attempt it but that is all it is, amusing. You do not look cool and it is most definitely not dancing.

4. Whipping

You look like you have no control over your body which is not cool. You look like you are mocking someone with serious disabilities and it needs to stop. This is just as bad as the shopping cart.

5. Nae Nae

I know whipping and the Nae Nae are from the same song, but they are both equally as annoying. Are you trying to high five the air or are you attempting to dance?

6. Dougie

The Dougie came and went pretty fast but there are still people who continue to do it. The thing is, I don't think everyone knows how to even do this dance. Every video and gif are different; no one has done what the music video attempt. This was a sad attempt at trying to transform into a new dance craze. The artist just wanted to invent his own dance and it failed miserably.

7. The sprinkler

The sprinkler has been around for way too long and it is time to retire this move.

8. The shopping cart

The same reason as #7.

9. Backpack kid

I admit that this is actually impressive but I still do not call it dancing.

10. Whatever it is that Drake is trying to do.

I should not have to explain this one. It just should have never started. I think he saw a bug on him and he was trying to get it off. The director must have thought it looked cool.

11. Stanky Leg

This is just dangerous. It looks like you twisted your ankle in slow motion or crushing that bug that was on Drake in #10.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
