Heartwarming and Geeky

When I opened up my Inbox this morning, I saw that my Aunt had sent me an email titled, “Take a look and tell me if this doesn’t effect you viscerally“. I admit, I was slightly hesitant to open the email, even though it’s pretty certain my hippie relative isn’t sending me gross porn (although, I can never quite be sure with her).

After opening the email and watching this video, however, I had to look away three times because I was so viscerally effected thought I was gonna cry. Something about the sappy yet happy music, the geeky dancing, kids doing the geeky dancing…I don’t know. It was kind of beautiful (and geeky).

    I was there when he filmed in DC and got to do the dance, thought it is unlikely that I can be seen, because I’m short and was in the back. I had no idea it would be such a tremendous hit online. I love the idea, how a simple, silly dance connects so many people. We really aren’t that different, no matter where we live or where we come from.

    I’ve only been to about 15 of the places he was at. I hope I get to go to all of them before I die.

    How was it possible because of stride?

    I love all his videos, they’re so amazing.

    And I’m pretty sure Stride sponsors him so he can afford to go to all those places.
