    I have never in my life seen in person anyone doing one of these dances.

    They’re mentioned so often that I just assume I should see phones on tripods on every inch of flat ground with people or trios doing choreography.

    Are these really that common?

      Do you know any kids? I haven’t seen anyone filming a dance to upload, but I’ve seen kids mimicking fortnite dances just for the hell of it. They were gen alpha though.

        No. I’m exaggerating. Specifically the recording part.

      I mean they were like years ago when it was new and it’s just a thing that we’re going to drag that generation for just like we’re still getting flogged for avocado toast.

        Just don’t do whatever the new hotness is. Gotcha.

        I don’t think I’ve seen anything I do dragged yet. Or at least not commonly.

        Don’t care for avocados or dancing. So far I’m in the clear for most generational banter.

          Typical millennial, painfully aware of the meta-narrative and avoiding cliches without even trying. So cringe! /S

      Maybe you just don’t live anywhere cool enough, I’ve definitely seen people filming TikTok dances in my city. One time they were even in the parking lot of my apartment complex.
