You know what never gets old? The dance from the Thriller music video.

At this point, we’ve seen internet videos of the dance done in a Filipino prison, at a wedding, by a marching band, by Legos, on Second Life, and now on the British subway.

The only uncool thing about any thriller dance is that 25 years later, people still don’t realize that some things are cool enough to defy laws.

For instance, the awesome choreography and straight faced acting by these tube dancers isn’t seen as something that should be commended, but as a passing annoyance by the Transport for London staff, who issued a statement:”There are clearly occasions, like this, when everyone enjoys being entertained by some talented people.”There are other occasions where inconsiderate behavior can spoil a journey for other passengers. Our message is simply that a little consideration to your fellow passengers can make a real difference to everyone.”

Spoil sports.

You think hundreds of Filipino prisoners thought: “I’m going to skip rehearsal today. I could go dance like a zombie in the yard…or I can drop the soap in the shower!”

No. That didn’t happen. Thriller should be allowed everywhere, regardless of appropriate timing.

Also, if you could put us in touch with the British dancing chick who obliged.
