@jasonritter1980: Sorry to the guy who said me continuing to dance was cringe!! Unfortunately for that man I am immune to being called cringe as I went through a long stage of being the most intense cringer at everything I did until one day I thought “who has the time?” In “Hey Jude” Paul McCartney says “For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool by making his world a little colder.” And my little 8th grade brain said “oh thank heavens I can stop trying to be something I am just not, which is whatever “cool” is.” And after that any time I felt worried about doing something, like dancing or anything I would ask myself if what I was afraid of was just being embarrassed, and if it was just that, I’d force myself to go out on a limb and do it! And a lot of times I had to sit in the embarrassment, but I at least learned something from it!! And at least I knew what it was like to try that thing!! As far as I could tell, in order to be cool you had to not really care or like a lot of things this beautiful world has to offer, you have to think everything sucks, because even liking anything is putting yourself out there to be made a fool of. So anyway I enjoy being a bit of a fool! Also how do you know if your friends really like you if you’re cool! What if you forget to be cool one day? Are they still around?? I guess cool people might not care that much about true friendships either???? I don’t know, I’ve never been cool! When I would try to dance as a teenager it would be this: stock still. Maybe tapping my outer thigh to the beat with a hand at the bottom of a stiff arm that will not leave my side for anything. And MAYBE straightening my knee on the beat from it’s natural bend. MAYBE ALSO gently nodding my head but imperceptibly. How sad to be trying to watch a show or listen to music when all you can think about is people looking and judging!!! So now I dance like no one’s watching and then I post it for anyone to see because that is BY FAR the most potentially embarrassing option and I am here to embarrass myself as much as possible. ANYWAY!! Sorry to that man, but he can always scroll! He’s responsible for his own eyeballs! I’m just here in a room Melanie had nothing to do with decorating wise being a dork! I love you guys thank you for reading! Ohhh ooops Matlock is tomorrow night!! What did you guys think of that last episode!? Bet you didn’t see that coming!!! CBS Thursday at 9 and after on Paramount +!

A wise man once said “I may be cringe, but I am free”

The sweater made me realize that if you were somewhat serious, you'd be Mr. Rogers. So wholesome.

When I hear this song I know 3 things. It’s a song from a TV show I never watched in the 80’s. 2, I know who I’m going to see, 3 he reminds me of people who have entertained a few generations of my f

Love reading this! The irony is I spent my whole childhood trying to be as cool as you! 🥰 I think I saw that freedom as the coolest thing and wanted to emulate it!
