(Swing) Dance Dance Revolution, Mario Mix
You know, I really don’t know what to say about this, so I’ll just state the facts: this is an elaborate Super Mario-themed dance routine performed by Morgan Day and Emily Wigger at the 2011 Camp Hollywood National Jitterbug Championship. It’s very well done — very — but it kind of leaves me feeling like I do when I read erotic Mario fan fic — sad, confused, and a little skeeved out. Thanks to Dan S. for the tip.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.

Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
