I found this. improv at a subwayI think it's Bifftastic, and I think they did a good job too! I want to be part of that group! Sorry for making another topic, but I wasn't sure where to put it... |

Yeah, improv is awesome, but it can't compare with the art of Parkour, also known as Freerunning and Urban Ninjary. |

Chris! the links are broken!
And Silf, though that is awesome, that is not where this goes. The frozen subway is Bifftastic due to the amount of people involved, and how well this giant amount of people did.
Parkour is just one guy who can jump around like a ninja.

You haven't seen good Parkour then. Some of those guys do near impossible things. I do a little ameture parkour and it is tough.

It looks like their website is down at the moment... my links are probably good. Silf/MP I think the 2 of you are misunderstanding the Improv Everywhere concept. They create Bifftastic once in a lifetime experiences for complete strangers. Here's an interview with the leader of the group: http://thisamericanlife.org/Radio_Episode.aspx?episode=286 |

Yeah. I actually have seen the frozen subway one on Best of Youtube. But you have to wonder. Is it really improv if it's planned out like that?

Maybe it's not quite 'improv' but it's still Bifftastic. EDIT: Hey! The links are working! Hooray! |

Anyways, because this thread is called 'improv,' why not talk about acting stuff?

I don't technically act, but I do do competitive speaking. It's like acting, but more self-reliant. And interesting.

I think you mentioned this before, and I made a quip about how Debate Squad gets all the hot chicks or somesuch. I was wrong. It's the Academic Octathalon team.

One, I've never heard of an academic octathalon; and, two, debate is where any lonely (or even desperate) smart girls go to... de-lonely themselves. And a power suit does wonders for anyone's figure.  |

I don't do clubs. The closest I got is the teams for Unreal Tournament. Yes, I play UT99 half the day in IT with the teacher.

Latin was really boring when I went to it for an hour after school (not like when I did 5 full days of it in the Summer), so I gave it up. I'm glad, because apparently the teacher is horrible and the work's really confusing.
Do you do coursework and get qualifications for the Latin Club at your school?

No, we just pay a few fees and we get free food, t-shirts, games, and eligibility for the trip to Italy this summer.
