    Hey, if you can *kitten* for calories, why not that?

    I loathe that..

    well I don't want to call it a "song"

    "Assault on all that can be called music" kind of fits.

    Agreed, I'm hoping that (seemingly) everyone is having a 'hipster' moment and only likes it ironically.

    Also- if you live under a rock and haven't seen this yet, here is a link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZkp7q19f0

    It only has 527 million views (3 million are probably from me).

    This was timely

    lol it is interesting to see how long it takes for memes to reach some people.

    maybe we will get a thread about the "grape stomp lady" today? :)

    I don't really like that either and avoided watching that video as long as I could until my son shoved it in my face a couple weeks ago. It was also the first routine when I returned to Zumba 2 weeks ago. Thankfully she has only done it that once.

    at this point, my mom knows what gangnam style is and is embarassing me at how badly she does the dance. It's just like last week when she learned the macarena and gave me pointers because she thought it was something new.

    This is a travesty, I normally just Gangnam Style while I jog, so i just count it as that.

    But, what if I just want to use it as a warmup? We'll have to let mfp support know that we won't stand for this injustice.

  • It is totally an exercise! In fact, it's exercise just watching someone do it, because it makes you laugh so hard! It must be put into the database!!!!!

    It is dancing. it is in there.

    I addressed this. Gangnam Style is 200.328 times better than regular dancing. Fact.

    Keep fighting the good fight, sir.

    I tread the interwebz for korean pop songs to hate on pretty regularly, but this one just kinda slipped through the cracks I guess.

    Isn't it about the same calories burned as horseback riding when you count yourself as the horse?

    Oh, come on, did you watch? The whole thing is ironic.
  • Oh yeah! That Korean kid is a tight body. I almost don't gag when I see his moobs bounce around.

    This is so not cool.

    I have to say that this is my favorite part of the whole video because it is just too freaking hilarious! It can hardly get funnier.

    Whenever I'm done working out and my calories burned are close to going over a 100 mark. Like if my work out comes to 675 I'll put on that song on my iPod and dance/chase my poodle around the house. Puts me past 700 in a hurry. Works every time.

    It's not a dance either.
