10. LOL

My mom calls him "Barry Manglenose."

:rofl:

5. Ok, it's "CONGA!"

As both a long time participant AND leader of Conga Lines, I must insist on the proper nomenclature.
I led a KICK-ASS Conga Line at my daughter's wedding.
It was the highlight of the evening.
Or so I'm told.

6. How to Behave on a Conga Line

A conga line need not be a kitschy embarrassment. It can be fun.

Steps:
1. Wait for an appropriate song. Anything with a heavy beat will do.

2. Find a partner or join an existing conga line. Do not try to persuade anyone who seems reluctant to join a conga line.

3. Enter the line. Do not be first if you can avoid it.

4. With your hands, move the hips immediately in front of you artfully from side to side. The idea is that each person "leads" the person in front - you are not following the person in front of you. You are spontaneously choreographing her.

5. When someone joins the line behind you, move your hips as instructed by her. Your movements may not correspond to the movements of the person in front of you.

6. Snake around the dance floor. Kick each heel, as in the "Hokey Pokey," as appropriate.

7. Continue moving forward until you're tired of it.


Tips:
Athletic people make for a more lively conga line, but large people make for a more impressive one.

Conga lines are particularly effective outside traditional tropical contexts. Russian weddings, for example.


Warnings:
The conga line is not to be confused with the Trinidadian wine dance. Do not attempt the Trinidadian wine dance without an actual person from Trinidad and a medical team present.

8. Damn, I want to do a Trinidadian wine dance

Will a bottle of New Zealand Savignon Blanc do for the wine?

[trof]

9. Why did I just KNOW you would go for that?

;-)

[LynneSin]

14. I heard you were going to lead the line

I'll follow you anywhere!

[kwassa]

32. It is "wind" not "wine" dance

The "d" is silent, and it is called win'ing. Like winding a clock.

It is basically group sex, small groups and large. I've seen it in person. Lotta crotch on crotch rubbing, though with clothes on.

[JVS]

11. ok

[Jamastiene]

12. Are we drunk already?

:P I may be joining you if my back doesn't quit hurting. I've been on the floor all day long working on my old computer trying to get it up and running enough so my aunt can use it. These floors aren't padded in the least bit either. My back is aching in such a way that my knees are actually joining in the the painfest. Ouch!

Your congo line sounds like a blast. Must come back later and join. :hi:

[trof]

13. DAMMIT! IT'S CONGA! NOT CONGO!

jeez

[Jamastiene]

15. Correction noted, dayum.

Calm down. 'Tis party time. I'll really be slurring my words later. You are going to be super busy if you try to correct all of them. :P

[trof]

16. You are correct.

'Tis.

21. Random kick to save one from

"The Archives" :scared:

22. I'm not sure if this one was worth saving

:scared:

[eyepaddle]

23. That's part of why I chose to save it!

Well, that and it was THE last thread above the cut-off!

[kick-ass-bob]

28. Wow, I didn't realize you did that - it's funny, because

I was trolling around on p20 looking to do the same thing!
