What's the point of skits?

[AOII Angel]

I hated skits so much when I went through recruitment. They were so awkward. Even when done well, they were cheesy. For someone who feels embarrassed for people who have to do the whole song and dance thing, it was terrible sitting through these parties watching girls who were clearly uncomfortable singing some of these songs. The worst was our Mardi Gras party with AOIIs running around in halloween/costume party gear singing Cabaret songs modified to fit an AOII theme. Terrible!
