It's a perpetrator choosing a target, or targets and playing to an audience. Basic psychology tells us those who insult others see something in that person that they hate in themselves. So self-esteem issues really. Very sad.
so I take it you have low self-esteem and see something of yourself in the OP, as you had a go at them? Now come on, this is the part where you desperately try not to split a hair whilst telling me what you said is different to what I've said. Priceless and the usual double standards in action but failing miserably.

You haven't got out much if you call a point of view an insult. You make your observations, I make mine. There aren't different rules that app!y to you. If a jokey thread offends you, why post a negative because its aimed at a dancer you like? The digs and sarcasm are transparent.

The difference is this. I don't sit at my computer, crack my knuckles and wonder who I can insult today.

Did you see what Bruno said to Claudia in the Len's Lens segment of the show about Ore standing around in his dance? I might not have all the exact words they used, one or two may be wrong, but it gives you the gist of things.
Claudia: Now onto Ore. Bruno, was Ore, you know, just standing around doing nothing? Bruno: Oh no Claudia. You cannot just do that amount of nothing and that amount of standing around and get away with it unless you are masterful and Ore was masterful. Claudia: So that was brilliant choreography, you know, standing around and looking like he had taken root? Bruno: Oh yes, brilliant stagnation-ology and immobile-ology. Claudia: That is a lot of ologies there, so it must have been good? Bruno: Masterful sedentary perfection ... ology. Claudia: We need to say again, just in case the viewers have forgotten since we last said five minutes ago, that Ore has not had any dance training. Bruno: That is right Claudia. Professional dancers usually take years of training to achieve this level of rigor mortis when standing around on the dance floor, but Ore, wow, he has perfected it in just a week. Motionless excellence. Claudia: Was it like A* grade GCSE standing around, or just A grade? Bruno: Neither Claudia, it was much better than that, it was empyrean. His face commanded respect as he stood there doing nothing. It oozed confidence of a man knowing his standing about was a work of genius. You could see this was a man who exuded the firm belief the viewers would never see this level of inanimation ever again in their lives. Never again to be seen by human eyes. Easily worthy of a 10. Claudia: Super. Do you often flash your 10-paddle to people standing about in a bus queue? Bruno: Only 9s Claudia, only 9s. Ore's stagnation was a 10 because it was so amazing it was as if the King of the Gods, Zeus himself, was waiting for the 5.39pm bus to Olympus after a hard day godding at the office. Claudia: We are so lucky to have you here Bruno to explain this motionless masterclass to us because us mere mortals would have just wondered, why is that bloke just standing around? Thanks again. Tess, back to you. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You could add the amazing insight into the human condition he offered - represented by the hormones rushing , invisibly, but so visibly, to his eyes, and then the sheer dynamism of the tears , cascading down his cheeks , imitating Niagra Falls .Never have so many been moved, even soaked, by such a display of sheer emotion. |

Following the success of his static AT, Joanne is choreographing Ore's show dance in the style of the Mannequin Challenge to Jewel's Standing Still.

35. If the point is regarding what score it's worth then Ramps also got 39, and he didn't "do a lot" either.
And then he just flicked his gaze down

There is nothing wrong in standing still in dance, as long as its done in the right way and is meaningful. I fully get what Bruno meant. I can also remember at last years British nationals at the start of the Paso, both Neil and Katya just stood still for at least 8 bars of music - perfectly still, not moving at all, whilst everyone else was well into their routines. It worked for them, they retained their title.
Even in something like Tango, we were always taught never be afraid to stand still, - too many couples race round the room and that is not a characteristic of Tango. Incidentally the coach that told us " never be afraid of standing still" was a former World Champion and in all his Professional career was never ever beaten at Tango, so he does know what he is talking about. I have seen in a top International competition, where again in Tango, a couple stood still, initially as there was a couple in their way. They stood and stood, maintaining their fabulous posture and frame, their dynamic personality and floor presence commanded your attention. After many bars of music, the entire audience broke into rapturous applause. It was amazing. Nothing wrong in standing still. |

I've not quoted your whole post but I do agree with you. There is standing still stiffly like one of the Queen's guards outside Buckingham Palace and there is standing 'still' with some movement in the body indicating power, strength or musicality or whatever the person wants to convey.

We do not stand still in Argentine Tango, except at the very beginning before we start to actually dance. Whilst dancing we have some very quiet, slow moments but, unless the performance is very 'nuevo' and therefore slightly out of the box, we don't do any standing around and the movement is continuous. The man leads so standing still for him is not an option. It is not at all like Ballroom Tango. |

I read it as yet another Ore bashing thread. There are plenty of them already. At least the guy has the guts to on to compete in something that he hasn't got any experience. Good on him.

Not so much "Ore bashing" as "Why is he not moving"?
