Robot Dance Embarrassment

I never prided myself on my robot dance abilities but for some reason my drunken roommate thought I was a pro. At this wedding I just went to in Long Island, he tested my skillz at the reception by lifting my elbow and pushed my forearm to see if it swung back and forth and of course it did… duh, that’s like the easiest part of the dance. Unfortunately, the DJ at the wedding also took note of my amazing ability to swing my forearm.

So, when it came down to the time for people to do a dance-off with everyone looking around in a circle, I should have thought to run away. But no, I had to watch my roommate shut it down on the dance floor with another friend. They brought the fiyah, cut a rug and put on a pretty entertaining show. But then they stopped and there was no one going into the middle and eyes began to wander.

Tell me why my roommate tried to pull me into the middle of the circle, and in doing so caught the eye of the DJ who then announced that I would show everyone the robot. I tried to run away, really I did, but it was too late. Everyone was staring and if I walked off I would have been that weak little shit that couldn’t step it up. 

So then I nervously did the saddest robot dance ever and then I did some sort of weird runway walk as my exit. Like, what. the. shit. I will dance my ass off on the sidelines, but in the middle of a circle? NO. NEVER. It’s now all a blur but as I sit at my desk and think about the weekend, I remember that I totally humiliated myself and I am going to slap my roommate when I get home.

Also, it’s time to step up my robot game for next time.
