old people dancing to Billie JeanOnce upon a time, a long time ago, a wedding procession in St. Paul, Minnesota shook the world. The "JK Wedding Dance" featured the unlikeliest of people -- bridesmaids, best men, etc. -- turning the boring old ceremonial march into an all-out dance party, leading up to the exchange of vows between Jill Peterson and Kevin Heinz before becoming a viral phenomenon.

Yes, the video's impact on the internet (and pop culture writ large) was undeniable, but times have changed. People move on. Bless 'em, but Jill and Kevin would likely agree that the video was so two thousand and late.

It's 2010 now, y'all. And with only two more years before the impending apocalypse destroys universal life as we know it, we might as well take a cue from these senior citizens dancing to Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean." In other words, HAVE FUN, EVERYBODY! And, every once in a while, stop and dance to "Billie Jean." Really well. And be at least sixty.

Moral of the story: on the internet, the elderly always WIN.


Thanks for the tip, Colette!
