China’s “dancing grannies” are a tough bunch.

They are the middle-aged and elderly outdoor dance enthusiasts who crowd sidewalks, parks and squares. They include quite a few men, despite their popular name, and have become a colorful fixture in towns and cities, swirling, skipping and swaying in happy rows, during the mornings and often late into the night.

Too much of a fixture for some neighbors who can somehow grow tired of hours of throbbing disco music, electro-folk tunes and Bollywood-influenced dance numbers blasted over tinny loudspeakers.


In Pennsylvania, the popular kid in high school turned out to be a 23-year-old Ukrainian national busted for banging girls at the school.

He was in the National Honor Society, was a member of his school’s ROTC and had, at least at one point, achieved a 4.16 grade-point average, Pennsylvania state Rep. Patty Kim once noted in a tweet.

Potts aspired to become a NASA engineer and even earned acceptance to an aeronautical university which he might have attended after graduating from Harrisburg’s John Harris High School this springaccording to PennLive.

But that’s off the table after his life came crashing down last week.

The 18-year-old Asher Potts, it turns out, was actually 23-year-old Artur Samarin, a Ukrainian national, police said.

I read OP listening to E-Type... This day is weird overall.
 
I seriously need to stop following the news so much. Too much negativity, I'm thinking ignorance might be the better way to live.
 
Sounds a bit better than back when we would impale thousands of people through their anus with wooden spikes.

Also, that chimp fight was a bit of a let down tbh
 
Dont worry about it man, nuclear warfare is gonna clear out alot of shit, hopefully Florida is turned into a wasteland as a message for the future, since we are in this destroy san francisco as well
 
Then you got the shit in the Mayberry forum.

The workd is a strange place indeed
 
I'm curious to know how the "hybrid_experimentrandom" part of that link plays into this story.

Weird. The link with that address wouldn't work and was clearly gibberish, but when I went back into my history that was the address of the story, even when I refreshed the page. I had to go search for the dude's name to find an address that would work in a link.
 
He shot her in the leg with an air rifle, while "aiming for the speaker." Remember, this is China. In the US, she probably would have been capped with a 9 or 45. China saving lives IMO.;)

I always liked seeing dancers there. Most of the ones I saw were dressed in traditional garb and doing the dances of their tribes.
