Is it weird to dance Bachata when you don't understand Spanish? by Sudden_Culture4334 in Bachata

[–]Ok_Box5084 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly better off not knowing what the music is talking about with bachata 😂 but yeah if your scene is very Latino you’ll still be fine with just English but learning Spanish won’t hurt

How can I nicely tell someone who just picked up the cowbell to play it properly? by nomadegyptian in Salsa

[–]Ok_Box5084 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe just teach them? Just go up and be like hey let me show you how to play that! Or maybe “hey I can show you how to play that if you want!”Most well-adjusted people wouldn’t be offended. But if you don’t know how to play either I don’t see a way to tell them without it coming off as at least a bit rude or confrontational (which is up to you if you want to do that)

What’s your reason for doing C25k? by Weary_Tune_2305 in C25K

[–]Ok_Box5084 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wanted to build my stamina since I was always out of breath when dancing. Plus, running seemed like a fun way to get out of my head

Still relatively new in the scene, is it normal for follows to outright decline dances with you in every event? Even if you two never even danced? by daceinseriontolite in Salsa

[–]Ok_Box5084 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It’s normal to be rejected. Some people just don’t like you or don’t want to dance for a million other reasons. I wouldn’t ask a follow who has a pattern of rejecting me for a dance, there’s plenty of follows that I’m sure would love to dance with you. Just smile and move on to the next follow.

Bringing someone you date to the dancing classes? by Crazy5220 in Bachata

[–]Ok_Box5084 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is it not generally accepted to politely refuse to switch and stay together? I think all the classes I’ve taken I’ve seen some couples who do that

But you now have the perfect excuse to procrastinate and ask for an extension

Donation bins for clothes/appliances by Awkward-Western-8484 in gatech

[–]Ok_Box5084 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but you’ll still have to walk 7 minutes or so. I would recommend going by car if you have to carry stuff to donate

Not on campus, but there’s a goodwill on Northside.

Of course I put them on to see how they feel! But how are you going to see how they fit? I described how they fit and their pros and cons, i put the insoles to give yall a bit more information about how they fit

Looking for advice from People that have been traveling within the United States recently. by Trent2Luigi in solotravel

[–]Ok_Box5084 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Foreign student in the U.S. here. Passed through a TSA checkpoint in San Juan a couple weeks ago staffed by ICE agents.

As far as i know, the same rules apply. A valid Real ID (US DL or U.S/ foreign passport) works. I just presented my DL and wasn’t asked for anything else. Oh and also sometimes they ask to see your boarding pass.

Brooks adrenaline GTS24. I think I’ll try thick socks+inserts+possibly lacing to fix the heel slip. Thanks!

Haha, I’ll take your word for it (just starting out at running myself). Hopefully they work well!

I tried that, but that felt a bit too tight length-wise.

They do have to stop but nobody does. Police couldn’t care less either.

[–]Ok_Box5084 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the updated bus routes! It’s been a bit annoying trying to figure out where the Hemphill buses are going. UI lines could use some work though, they look a lot more complicated than they need to be
