To stand there no matter how fast or slow the beat of the song is swaying from side to side while snapping your fingers.
As I peered over to the dance floor I acknowledged the woman performing the mom dance to both techno and to a love song.

A dance style characterized by easy, repetitive steps often requiring minimal effort and little skill. It is generally adopted by middle-aged Caucasian mothers with no sense of rhythm. This usually provokes an awkward feeling in young people associated with the the person who chooses to adopt the style.
As soon as they played Happy by Pharrell Williams there was some serious mom dancing going on amongst the mothers chaperoning our school dance.

I have trouble watching Kylie Minogue perform live these days. Her choreography has been reduced to mom dancing.

A show on Lifetime about a talking whale letting out her anger about her weight on small children and mentally disabled parents alike. The show takes place in a dance studio, where a white whale had managed to evolve to the point of being able to walk on land. The whale managed to find a dance studio to cower in and bemoan its fate. The dance instructor was working late hours, and saw the whale was in need of help, and took the whale under her wing.

The whale began to learn basic cognitive functions from the dance instructor. Less than a year later, the whale began to speak fluent English. It also spent the time learning dance moves, however it could not manipulate its enormous body to achieve such dexterous movements. When it was ready, it ate the dance instructor and inherited her position.

And so. the show records the whales efforts to teach children how to dance. It lashed out its anger at the smallest mishaps, unleashing her anger and traumatizing these children. The mothers watched, their simple minds unable to comprehend the cruelties their daughters face. When they did understand, the made a measly protest and were verbally assaulted by the whale. In front of there own children. It was decided that, upon the creation of the show, the only parents worthy of being on Dance Moms must have severe mental disabilities, so the none of them would have the common sense to withdraw their daughter and quit.

Extremely good comeback for anyone, whether its a bully, friend or someone online calling you "gay" or anything similar in an attempt to offend and provoke you. If only I came up with this insult when an old friend called me a gay person.
Person 1: Why are you touching me? Are you gay?
Person 2: Bro, I'm Straighter than the pole your mom dances on
Person 1: (Speechless)
