stick-figure strut

Refers to where you grinningly stand wif yer feet far apart and yer arms either held straight out to da side or raised at a 45-degree angle, then stiff-leggedly wobble yer way forward. An uproarious way to gently and entertainingly show little kids how humorously ridiculous humans would look if they actually stood and walked da way dat said pint-sized sketch-artists typically draw them, thus prompting said budding illustrators to make more effort at realistic human-form representation.

One neat aspect of da stick-figure strut is dat it is very easy to imitate, even for small children; said little ones can therefore perform said loopy walk themselves to create their own hilarious "this isn't how people stand/walk" demonstrations for their fellow youngsters in school and/or on da playground, thus also showing these OTHER aspiring artists how it would be wise for THEM to put a bit more effort into creating realism in THEIR OWN pen-and-ink drawings, as well.
