DDR

From Encyclopedia Dramatica

HOLY SHIT HI SCOREZZ!!

Only years of rigorous training could prepare you for this

Dance Dance Revolution (commonly called Dee-Dee-Are or sometimes Dance Dance by the culturally out-of-touch) is a video game that involves feigning epilepsy to the beat of mediocre Korean techno. This has caused many people to associate the game with the gay community. In reality, few gay people play the game since they have better taste in music and actually know how to dance. Furries are the obvious exception here, they tend to play DDR all the time, which makes as much sense as IDAPW.

This game is easily recognizable at malls and arcades, with four layers:

1. The "system": A machine arbitrarily flashing lights and playing crappy music.
2. The "players": Overweight / goth / retarded / wapanese / girl / furry / Nigga (pick two) pounding away on some poor metal pad.
3. The "fans": "Players" that are awaiting their turn to provide entertainment.
4. The "drunks": 20-to-30-something alcoholics that, in between telling dick-and-fart jokes and hitting on underage girls, get their jollies on badly-performed insults towards players.

The health benefits of a high-impact aerobic workout are often attributed to DDR by fanboys while ignoring the property damage and serious injury to bystanders that result when the fat kids fall over (funny).

If you see someone with no rhythm playing DDR please advise them to stop playing immediately "for the love of god!" Most arcades will allow you to unplug the machine should your request go unacknowledged, provided that you don't get caught.

To provide maximum lulz, ALWAYS PLAY DDR DRUNK.

Godwin's Law of DDR states that 10 year old azn girls will always win.

Sometimes people play DDR sitting down. Alone. In their rooms.

[edit] How not to DDR

DDR is usually played by sexually insecure fatties, preferably with a one-eyed vertebrate.

[edit] Showoffs

Durr!

There are two types of people who play DDR. Causal "For Fun" players like the ones described above, and the showoffs who have done a song so many times they can: (A) Do it with their eyes closed (B) Get perfect combo ratings with which to boost their ego, (C) Breakdance on the machines and pads themselves, or (D) do the steps behind someone else playing. People who fit into the letter C category are usually Asians/Azns, Nigras, bboy wannabes, and actual breakdancing white boys. While there are few examples of type A and B, there are quite a few of Exhibit C. Here is what you must look out for.
