Krump

Much like breakdancing was a benchmark of inner city culture in the ’80s, a dance movement called krumping is creating its own subculture among teens in Los Angeles neighborhoods such as Compton, South Central, and Watts. Informed equally by hip-hop, African tribal rituals, pantomime and martial arts, krumping is a frenetic, hyper fast-paced dancing style. Dancers gather in school grounds, parking lots, and yards to perform and “battle dance” each other; participants are typically vocal opponents of violence, thus making the krumping scene an alternative to the gang wars that plague the areas where krumping is popular. Theatrical face paint is also worn by the dancers, which gives krumping its other moniker, “clowning”. While authentic krumping is fuelled by an intensity that would probably be found intimidating by most of mainstream America, we wouldn’t be surprised to at least see it find its way to other urban areas.

krumping

A dancing style not dissimilar to how a mountain goat might react whilst undergoing extensive knee surgery. The 'krumper' experiences no pain however, unless they are skilled in the art of clowning, the audience may feel like they have just been munged.
I feel no hesitation in crowning him king of the goats, for his krumping efforts are truely supreme.

Krump

A common word used by Ernies (Members of the website ernest-chan.webs.com) and Youtube Poop writers.

The word Krump is used to describe anyone who does not agree with "The Que of Life" that Ernest Chan members live by.
It is used by the Ernies as a pronoun, adjective, and verb depending on the situation set in the Ern story that the Ernie writes.

In Youtube Poop, Krump is used as a synonym for "Rape" as seen in "How the Grinch Barrowed Hanukkah".
Ernest Chan:

"One day krumpy mother makes a disgusting casserole."

"Walking is for krumps, so he -steals- borrows an electric cart from walmart."
"Vincent krumps around Ernest's house."

krump

A type of dance pioneered and invented by the Cartoonz Family. You have to feel the music within you and it involves fast, seizure-like dancing resembling much like a African Tribe's war dance. It is NOT to be confused with clown dancing because they do not paint their face and have no lower body movement like clown dancers.
