Is there an English version of weeaboo? It sounds like some of these Morris dancers are very into English culture, and perhaps overlap with SCA nerds? But I'm just guessing here.

Funny how you don't see these nerds getting into dance styles like salsa or cumbia or something.

The first time I ever heard about Morris Dancers is from an episode of Black Adder. The only other time before this thread was when I was working for Games Workshop and there was some teasing among the Brits about out head of finance being a Morris Dancer in his youth.

Prank went wrong and my cousin was arrested (Florida)

(self.legaladvice)
submitted 11 days ago by prank_gone_wrong

My cousin and me both go to the same college. With some of our friends we sometimes get together on campus and play jokes or pranks on people on campus that we sometimes put on YouTube. It's always small, harmless stuff.

My cousin had the idea that we should go downtown and jump into random back seats of cars that we find unlocked and pretend we think the people were Uber drivers. It went wrong though.

That nighy my cousin jumped into this girls car and started telling her to drive and hurry up because he was late. The girl was yelling at him but then she accelerated the car into traffic and sped up. She hit a mailbox and a cop saw and she got out and was screaming that some guy jumped in her car and tried to hijack her. My cousin gor arrested at gunpoint.

We all tried to explain to the cops at the station but they thought we were just trying to cover for him and they kicked us out because we have never done something like this, our normal stuff is different and on campus. His parents are working on getting him a lawyer I think but he has to stay in jail until he goes to court.

We also found out that the girl goes to our school but we didn't know that and she said someone was stalking her or being creepy on campus to her. My cousin doesn't know her and this was just an accident and a prank gone wrong. They are blaming him for the crash. He has never been on trouble before except that he got caught with weed once and is on probation. What is the worst that could happen to him from this?

I'm surprisingly happy to know that one of those loving obnoxious YouTube pranksters will go to prison.

I love how we live in a world that there is a non-insignificant portion of the population that thinks "it was just a prank/joke" is a perfectly acceptable defense. It's like Waifu guy and his massive kiddy porn collection, and is dozens of posts about kiddy porn, it was just jokes! honestly!

Re: Morris Dancers.



This is former parliamentary candidate Will Straw – son of former Home Secretary Jack Straw – with a local morris dancing troupe.

Knowing his father's reputation among BME communities, one would would think the younger Straw would steer clear of courting such controversy, but nope.

His excuse was literally "they're not blacking up, they're just recreating a dance created by moorish miners a couple centuries ago".

It's like Nigel Farage trying to make a curry. Just because he can doesn't mean he should, or it'll be very good.

I think she might have Cushing's Syndrome, which doctors used to nickname the 'lemon on toothpicks' disease, until it was pointed out that just because a description is apt, doesn't mean a medic should openly use it. Why someone suffering from this would choose skintight clothes, I don't know.

It's not getting weirder, it's just getting more easily accessible to the weird. That guy had to make that page and go through the effort of making a geocities account. Now anyone can like, in five minutes, have a generic tumblr and start talking about how much they want to piss in rain gear.

It isn't getting weirder just more permanent.

Granted some people argue that people are getting weirder but it's the same thing, really; humans have always been weird. Now it's just more visible.

"But now there are people with a nylon fetish!" Yeah there have been since nylon was invented. So what?

You're not gonna be able to convince me that that Geocities page took more than 5 minutes to make.
