    I think its fair to say that many of us here are a bit past our teens/twenties. The young lass at work sent me an educational video to help bring us up to date. Well I was amused at least:

    Sorry Marley, and thanks for pointing that out. My mistake, I don't know how it happened seeing as I simply copied and pasted, but somehow the link was actually to my work email, rather than the URL that I copied from the email.

    I've edited the post and it's right now.

    Like all fashion this "dance" has come full circle because it looks like a version of "head-banging"!!!" Like a wise old world weary Warrant Officer I used to know said every day "There's nothing new in the world except tomorrow". I shudder to think of being as naive, ignorant and arrogantly stupid as I think I was at 15 - mmmm.
    I think that's leading with my chin!!!

    I managed to watch 1.25 minutes!

    They're idiots. Moronic idiots as well. (All idiots are moronic, I suppose. :loll: )

    And I'm a bit of an idiot for watching 1.25 minutes of it! :mad:

    I think they were just having a bit of harmless fun, and poking fun at some of the dances their fellow young folk do. I'm sure its no different to the twist, or the mashed potato:)

    I'm too young too. I remember my parents and their friends talking about 'the gold old days' once when I was only little.

    Apparently in the 60's they were all swingers:P
