What your girl means when she says she’s “hanging” with the girls
Ministry of silly walks
What the fuck did i just watch
Anyway have an upvote
This is a demonstration for the public and TV on Republic Day at the national parade. It’s mostly performative and is meant to be exaggerated and over the top because that’s what’s expected at this parade. Millions of families wake up early morning on Jan 26th every year to watch these performances. They even have performances from school children from different cultures in India, an air show, giant missiles, etc.
This reminds me of the border ceremony between India and Pakistan that is an awesome display of militaries upping each other in silly walks.
Honest question to Indian and Pakistani lemmings:
Does this look cool in its own cultural context?
I swear these get more and more elaborate with each one I see.
“On second thought, let’s not call an Indian artillery strike. It is a silly process.”
“Come on, mateys, step in time…
Load the magazine, step in time…
Never need a reason, Never need a rhyme…
Fire at will, step in time!”

It’s like watching Monty python
Ministry of Silly Military Tactics
Funny walk 👍
Needs some work, I’m sure the ministry will reject the claim for it being to simple and straight forward.
Where do you think they got the idea.
And now for something completely different.
“hut hut hut hut hut hut hut hut”
When your general also loves musicals
This is Sikh
The hop into crouch is adorable
Not a rehearsal for a Bollywood movie about war?
Be careful, their Group Dance move buffs the protagonist unit to absurd levels.
They can’t help it, Bollywood has an AoE over the entire country.
Is there some utility to all that?
No, but there is some artillery
They’re waiting for their applications to the Ministry of Silly Walks to come through.
Don’t you see how patriotic and serious they are? They did the very patriotic and very serious walk and everything!
Pageantry is always useful
It’s probably a joke they filmed for fun. You never know with the military but none of them are visibly considering killing their butterbar so it’s probably the joke thing.
Butterbar?
Slang for a 2nd lieutenant (lowest ranking officer in the army) because their insignia is a gold bar.
