Yesterday was a big day for Roger Marshall.
The new congressman from Kansas's First District was sworn into the House of Representatives by Speaker Paul Ryan.
And he was totally upstaged by his teenage son Cal, who did this:

"You wanna put your hand down? Are you going to sneeze?" Ryan wondered, before pushing the boy's arm down himself.After the incident, Ryan remained flummoxed by the dance move.
Just finished swearing-in photos. Nearly 300 members. Countless cute kids. Still don't get what dabbing is, though. pic.twitter.com/E2hFgyPYZT
Congressman Marshall claimed he had punished Cal for his display
Just so you know @SpeakerRyan: He's grounded. https://t.co/PGGhYXEfQv

We really hate to encourage the dab in 2017, but you gotta respect Cal's sense of the moment.
