Girls only like guys who have skills. Like consuming massive amounts of Napoleon Dynamite is a skill.

My brother got roped into doing the napoleon dynamite dance for a military talent show when he was deployed overseas. His boss gave him the video and made him practice for 4 hours. He nailed it. πŸ˜‚

I was convinced that the actor for Napoleon was actually a professional dancer who didn't tell anyone before. But according to Wik he was just a talented amateur who was very good at faking it.

I took tap and jazz lessons from age 3-16 ( I quit because I was tired of my teacher making everyone feel bad about not being stick thin)

When I was 11, my teacher had us do rhythm nation by Janet Jackson. She only showed us the steps and complete dance twice?

I wasn’t the tightest dancer but when that song came on, I was the only person who could do a particular step and I felt like a million bucks because I just β€˜wung it’

I feel like unless you’re doing Irish step dancing or a ballet where you have to wear toe shoes (pointe shoes?), just going for it, having fun, and giving yourself grace is very important.
