I've been looking into getting into the local dance scene, but I'm genuinely confused—is there a secret rule that says you have to look like a burnt orange to win? It seems like 50% of the scoring is based on how much glitter you can shed on the floor before the final round. Is there actually any athleticism involved, or is it just a high-stakes version of playing dress-up for adults who never grew out of their princess phase? Sincere answers only, or just roast me, whatever
