emo dance 

Emo dancing is usually spastic. Shaking, bouncing up and down, moving side to side, waving your pointer finger in the air are also involved. Some people lay on the ground and just shake. I guess it's anything that involves moving to the music. One's emo dance is usually chaotic and intense.
Look at that guy emo dance! It's crazy!

emo dance 

The main purpose of Emo Dancing is to show others how completely at one you are with the music. To show how passionate you are about it, like the mentality is "I have nothing else in life, music and self-expression are my everything".
Look out for these Emo Dance moves at a scuzzy, dirty gig venue near you:

1) Primarily practiced by the male of the species, but occasionally by the drunk/high Emo Chick, one holds onto the right ankle with the right hand, and jumps about, moving the leg up and down in a jerk-knee movement in time with excessive head-banging.
2) Emo Chick favourite - the girl puts her arms into the air, or entangles them in her back-combed hair, and jumps up and down, round and round, kicking up the legs as if she's trying to kick her own ass.
3) The classic choice when in an extremely space-limited mosh pit, for either girls or guys. Raise one arm in that stupid fist-and-finger-salute thing, and jump up and down repeatedly.

Emo "dance" is usually called "skanking", or throwing it down - "throwdown". It's made up of throwing your arms and legs in random directions with a lot of swerving motions. There are some actual moves aswell. This is just very general.
Usually seen at concerts.

One of the basic moves is to throw one leg where the other one is as you remove the other one. So then theres a replacing. and its repeated.

ex. Left leg replaces the right as it swings over, then the right leg swings over to where the left leg was.

That would be a type of "emo dance"

The windmill - swinging your arms over your head and running on the spot.

The two step - when you pull one leg over to the other side and then reapeat again with other foot.

Those are two emo dances - but mostly emos just spin there arms and legs around and shake.

This is how you do the emo Dance

It is said of the situation where a person has the bad luck to make contact with his testicles against an undefined surface or object, intentioned or not.
Given the nature of the word, it is more appropriate to design cases where the interaction is made with a moving object, for example, a ball.
Although it is extremely painful for the victim, it tends to be considerably funny to people who witness it.
Today in the baseball game the pitcher took a nutshot; the baseball hit him in the nuts.

Man, I just watched the funniest nutshot video ever.
