Like does He have a Car?

I happened to catch the last couple of minutes of Footloose on TV a few hours ago and now I just zapped past Saturday Night Live on another channel. In movies such as these people start to dance in sync just like that. In the spur of the moment and by some unexplained force they all know the moves. And no one ever trips and fall, no one ever finds him/herself standing there looking like a complete idiot dancing on their own. As one would do had one attempted to do this out on a club (or God help us all: the street).

It's like musicals, where people start singing for no particular reason at all. That never happens in real life. I've never been standing in line in a grocery store or anywhere else for that matter to suddenly hear someone burst out singing, feeling the uncontrollable urge to sing along. It never happened. People who go around singing in public without any particualr reason are called lunatics and we lock them up in special places.

What about street performers? They sing in public.

One time I was at a Drug Store, and they had music playing in the background. It was pretty amusing to see one of the employees dancing while stamping condoms with his price gun.

Yes, that could be an exception. But most street performers plan their performance. I'm referring more to people who just burst out singing, in the middle of a conversation or when people start dancing syncronized dancing without any kind of practice or connection to each other.

That only seem to be happening in movies.

I know a few who should be locked up in those special places you mention ;)

That would be you, me and Trite. We don't sing and dance in public but we still could use those padded walls from time to time. :)
