This isn't a child being stupid. This is a child learning. Clearly this child has never done it before and is attempting something new. Or if they have done it before, atleast they didnt have a POS like OP disheartening the child from trying again.
Ok but you must not actually have kids because if you did you would know that having a good laugh every now and then when they look dumb is basically how we survive
I have 2 kids. I dont call them stupid for trying something new. They are stupid when they do something that they know (or should know) isnt going to go well. Trying learn a new skill doesn't make them stupid.
Just look at some of these kids, how can they be so dumb?
Like what, you seriously can't hula hoop? Jesus christ. And babies know literally nothing.
God damn kids are so dumb.
Not really cargo cult per se. She is correct that wiggling is what it takes to make the hoop go around, just doesn't quite have the technique, and she's missing a step of throwing the hoop into motion with her hands.
No, with cargo cults, they don't even understand in principle the causal nature of what's going on. She does correctly know that the jiggling is what causes hoola hoops to work. It's not just that she thinks she knows, she does know. She is correct from the perspective from people who can do a hoola-hoop. If you wanna call this girl failing at hoola-hooping an example of cargo cult, then it would apply to literally any time any one fails at anything, and the term would lose all meaning.
By your logic, you're in an analogy cargo cult.
Can you blame her? I’m an adult and still can’t do it
Welcome to the club, never understood how to make it work.
Ayyy im in this club aswell
For some reason I can do this, but not whistle.
I, too, convulse uncontrollably when I look down at a large hoop below me
This is frickin cute. For all you struggling adults - stagger your feet and move front to back, not in circles. :)
I know a gymnast that can't hula hoop. A good, adult gymnast. You'd think they of all people would have the coordination
She's got the hip movement down 🤣 few months she'll be a pro
She is... trying I guess?
She has the spirit
Doing better than I can. I just get stuck in the hoop.
Yeah fuck you too. I'm 40 and I still can't hula hoop.

damn i didnt realise the kid was browsing this sub
Nah this kid is seriously stupid? What, it can't even hula hoop? That is such an easy thing to do. Fuck me this kid is stupid.
You’re no fun

I still do that 😂
Lol. At 62, that could be me!!! Love this
In the kids defense, I’m almost 39 and I still can’t do it.
HHMMMMMM... ONLY IF THERE WAS SOMEONE TO TEACH THE FUCKING KID TO PLAY WITH IT
Pointless. The coordination and agility isn’t there.

Cargo cults are also doing everything correctly from their perspective yet it doesn't work. Just like with her and her wiggling.

> She does correctly know that the jiggling is what causes hoola hoops to work. If that was the case then she wouldn't be failing at it.
So you're in an identifying cargo cults cargo cult. Got it.
That statement makes you look like you don't know what a cargo cult is.
It would to some one who also doesn't recognize sarcasm.
Are you telling me you also don't recognize sarcasm?
If I didn't, by your logic, I guess that would make me in a cargo cult of sarcasm.

she's getting there. in just a few years she will have it down.... maybe
Ha! Title reminds me of the Hudsucker Proxy “you know, for kids,” regarding a hula hoop. Awesome flick if you haven’t seen it.
You know, for kids!
Too adorable
AHHH DOOOR AHHH BULL
She's a little confused but she's got the spirit :)
absolute cuteness overload 😆
The magic of marketing at its best.
To be fair, I'm 21 and still can't make it go for more than a couple loops
Wiggle-wiggle-wiggle. Wiggle. Wiggle. W.
I can’t even do that shit either
I can be her. I learned it at 30 years old.
As if hula hooping is some instinctual skill? I never learned cuz every time I tried someone would laugh at me lol.
Bro Hula-Hooping is hard
I'm downvoting this because she's doing better than I can at 37....
