Jul 07, 04 02:46 pm — So I decided to sign up for one of the Adult Education summertime classes offered here in town.

"Dancing for Fun and Fitness."

Big mistake.

I'm in my mid-30's and I was the youngest person there. It was all women except for "The Guy." One guy in the class, and he was pretty special. He showed up with a cooler (lunch and Capri Sun pouches) and a CAST on his ankle. Yep. A cast on his ankle for dance class.

Anyway, the room smelled like a weird combination of poop and perfume. The instructor told us she had a "peppy" song and would show us some "zippy" moves. ("Peppy" and "zippy?" What were we, the Italian Salad Dressing Dancers?)

She put on "She Works Hard for the Money" by Donna Summer.



After sashaying and convulsing along with the group, I realized that we looked like:

1. Angry orangutans

2. An after-school special about epileptics with the "can-do" spirit

3. A special-ed version of West Side Story.

Sometimes it's better to have no class than to have dance class.

LMFAO

Did she show you how to do "Jazz Hands" ??

She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey.
She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right.

Onetta here in the corner stand and wonders where she is.
And it's strange to her, some people seem to have everything.
9 am on the hour hand and she's waiting for the bell.
And she's looking real pretty. She's waiting for her clientele.

She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey.
She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right.

Twentyeight years have come and gone.
And she's seen a lot of tears
of the ones who come in. They really seem to need her there.
It's a sacrifice working day to day. For little money just tips for pay.
But it's worth it all just to hear them say that they care.

She works hard for the money. So hard for it, honey.
She works hard for the money. So you better treat her right.

She already knows she's seen her bad times.
She already knows these are the good times.
She'll never sell out, she never will, not for a dollar bill.
She works haaaaard.........

Sax Solo
Guitar Solo

He showed up with a cooler (lunch and Capri Sun pouches)

Maybe he was there to pick up one of you young beauties and go for a picnic??

My wife's accounting class did a presentation on something....can't remember because I didn't really care....but they handed out Capri Sun pouches as part of it....for some reason....
Well my wife comes home and gives it to me, and I asked her "A Capri Sun pouch?? WTF am I a retard??" At about that time I tore the straw off the back and made a downward 45 degree stabbing motion into the front AND THEN THROUGH THE BACK of the Capri Sun pouch....the fucken thing drained all over my couch and carpet before I could get it to the sink.

Was anyone wearing spandex?

Spandex two sizes too small?

Just remember, it can get worse and more fun.

Thanks, Kalika, for a mental image that I just didn't need!

Froguana, how about a recommendation for new music for the class, someting less salad dressing and more Latin salsa inspired like,

"I want to be in America
It's great to be in America"

I'd be careful the person on your right doesn't lunge into you, there seems to be some competition going on!
