Karaoke

To me, the whole concept is strange: people earnestly singing songs in front of total strangers, ostensibly for their approval...
It made me think, why do people do this?

I go with my friends. They get a kick out of me singing (I'm good). The approval of strangers is nice, but by itself, it's not enough to get me up there.

People who go to karaoke alone are the most pathetic people I've ever seen. I remember one time, seeing a guy sitting by himself. He gets called up to sing his song. When the song is over, instead of going back to his bar stool, he just walked out of the place. I can't explain that.
