All the sources (1) agree that everybody was kung fu fighting. In addition, no verifiable source mentions that nobody was kung fu fighting. In conclusion, we can assume that everybody was actually kung fu fighting. [I have a PhD in physical anthropology]

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 26 points 5 months ago

Furthermore, everyone was an expert fighter, being all faster than lightning.

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 16 points 5 months ago

Although, it was a little bit frightening.

[-] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 19 points 5 months ago

Was this before or after the man in the back said "everyone attack"?

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago

Why is everybody not dancing now? I specifically requested it.

[-] kersploosh@sh.itjust.works 13 points 5 months ago

You can dance if you want to.

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 8 points 5 months ago

Kung Fu fighting is definitely not safety dancing. At all.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

It's the year 2145, and dancing has been deemed unsafe due to widespread kung-fu fighting and the NaeNaepocalypse of 2099. AI-controlled synthetic automatons now perform all dance-related functions. Automatic, systematic, full of color, self-contained fembots have eliminated the need for humans to engage in dancing. Captivating stimulating, filled with space age design, rhythmatic and acrobatic, they are dynamite attractions, geared to really blow your mind. Dancing, dancing, dancing.

Several people were kung fu fighting

Their speed was metaphorically lightning

[-] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 22 points 5 months ago

I must admit I was mildly startled.

But I must also admit their timing was satisfactory.

[-] bhamlin@lemmy.world 51 points 5 months ago

Ok, is no one going to mention that he is holding a smaller hand to adjust his sunglasses?

[-] deroyonz@lemmy.zip 38 points 5 months ago

AI image generators having to scrape stuff like this and somehow not come up with monstrosities

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

"An image of kung fu fighting, please."

Screen full of sunglasses and hands touching said sunglasses to put them better on the face with a face

What

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Not sure if this is sarcasm or a reference I'm not getting, but just in case: It's not AI generated. I know this because the sign in the background is legible. The hand belongs to the woman to his right. The photo was taken right as he was lifting his hand to adjust/remove his sunglasses.

[-] slackassassin@sh.itjust.works 10 points 5 months ago

I think they were talking about AI being trained using this image. Like this dude got AI out here thinking people got hands on hands on hands.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

My bad. Having ADHD can screw up my reading comprehension pretty badly at times.

[-] EpeeGnome@lemm.ee 6 points 5 months ago

On a closer look, the small hand is the guy behind him holding a phone to his ear

[-] bhamlin@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Is it a different guy? Or is it a second smaller head behind his larger head?

Everybody that I'm referring to for the purposes of this song was kung fu fighting

[-] nexguy@lemmy.world 23 points 5 months ago

From my understanding there were relatively as fast as lightning but clearly not literally.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 20 points 5 months ago

However, it's not hyperbole to say that it was a little bit frightening.

[-] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 13 points 5 months ago

They may, in fact, not have had true expertise.

In this essay I will explain how it is not possible for them to be as fast as lightening. 1/348

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 26 points 5 months ago

They indeed were...and don't call me Shirley.

I also question how fast their moves really were, as it's impossible to be fast as lightning.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

And even if they were, how is that even a little bit frightening?

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 9 points 5 months ago

You wouldn't be frightened by some literally physically impossible moves?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 4 points 5 months ago

Hell no! I'd be stoked because that would be dope to witness!

Let's say for a minute, that hypothetically, everyone was in fact kung fu fighting. Now statistically speaking of course, this is impossible. Now hypothetically if they were, hypothetically of course. Now, would they all be performing the same so called Kung Fu move? Statistically speaking that is highly unlikely. This would also, hypothetically, be quite dangerous if it were to actually occur. Coming from a medical official, my wife, who is a doctor, she says that hypothetically, this would be dangerous. So, logically, this would not happen. So in fact, there is no way, impossible even, that everybody was Kung Fu Fighting.

[-] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago

I really want to give you a wedgie for typing that

[-] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

I stole it but I'll take the wedgie anyway.

Now this is a conspiracy theory I can get behind

[-] FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today 9 points 5 months ago

That's a walking Lemmy comment right there.

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 8 points 5 months ago

There must have been at least one guy doing Wing Chun

[-] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago
[-] AGD4@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

That shirt is not as hard as that Oasis juice box he's holding.

[-] RockyBass@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

A healthy amount of skepticism is indeed important.

[-] Johanno@feddit.de 3 points 5 months ago

Don't call me Shirley
