Guest Promsak Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 I was in the Emquartier supermarket yesterday and suddely some disco diva music, possibly Gloria Gaynor or some such, blared from the loudspeakers. All the female staff simultaneously started some obviously well rehearsed dance routine. Slightly embarrasing. It would have been nice if the young male assistants in their tailored black uniforms had joined in. Quote
Guest ronnie4you Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Promsak, please consider me confused. "Disco diva music, possibly Gloria Gaynor or some such..." I'll grant that she may been a diva, but to lump her with "some such" is sacrilegious. I cannot imagine not knowing Gloria Gaynor when you hear her, but then, I am an older guy who actually danced to her tunes. (Not that I could actually "dance.") Why would it be embarrassing for the female staff to do a dance routine? Were they really awful? Did they not do the great diva justice? I think the next time this happens you should just go up to the young male assistants in their tailored black uniforms and start dancing until they got the hint to join in! Truly a great gay anthem: https://youtu.be/z0GpEH1rBRs Quote
kokopelli Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Who is Gloria Gaynor I asked myself so did some googling. Now I know where I heard her, Priscilla Queen of the Desert. The scenario described by the OP would be what is known as a Flash Mob. Quote
Guest ronnie4you Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Oh gosh. Who is Gloria Gaynor? I guess I really am becoming a fossil. kokopelli, since you did some research, this is for you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloria_Gaynor Others are certainly welcome to read it too.
