People should dance way more. Just let loose. Things get too uptight otherwise

Among the many things that Trump, Kim, Putin, Xi, Netanyahu et al. have in common, is you KNOW they don’t dance in the shower, even though Adam Ant just started playing on the radio!

You are erasing the narrative of people with a crippling fear of dancing. I’m kidding. Totally a joke, so please no pile ons It’s fun when you feel like doing it. Wish I felt it more and that it didn’t require bourbon for a person like me. It can be really fun, especially when you love the song.
