To dance wankily around the house as I do housework

I find it so freeing to turn the music up and just flail with gay abandon as I clean the house.

I think this is the actual law

I frequently channel my inner Mrs Doubtfire/Freddie Mercury while hoovering

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 13/01/2019 17:20

I dance wankily regardless of housework...

Yanbu at all!

I thought everyone did!?

You also have to bogle and gurn in every mirrored surface as if you are being filmed.

Lol @ these posts - you’re all nuts! Grin

I quite like a bit of abba when cleaning. Which I sing along to. I bust a few moves with the Hoover.

FacingUp · 13/01/2019 17:38

I’m talking David Brent stylee, proper embarrassing Dad dancing at a wedding moves with some weird interpretive dance type moves thrown it at random.
This is no normal bop around the house, I’m talking absolute mortification if someone saw me!

When I was working most of week, every Friday afternoon I cleaned the house to MeatLoaf's Bat Out Of Hell cd. Somehow it helped, a lot! Grin

Do people not do this?? I thought it was 'Normal?! !!! Lol

ASqueakingInTheShrubbery · 13/01/2019 19:17

MeatLoaf's good, Def Leppard's better - I like Adrenalize for cleaning - but for a really thorough job, you need punk. Turned up as loud as the neighbours will bear. Levellers for baking.

I whack the Greatest Showman on and not only do I dance wankily I sing very very badly at the top of my voice. But obviously when no one else is at home. Although I did get caught by hubby one day when the music was on so loud I didn't hear him come in!!!!

userschmoozer · 14/01/2019 00:07

The Darkness and Guns n Roses are easier to bogle to imo.

KnobJockey · 14/01/2019 08:27

@Clawdy me too!

Strugglingtodomybest · 14/01/2019 08:34

Why wouldn't you? Go for it, if you can't dance in your own home then it's a sad state of affairs!

CigarsofthePharoahs · 14/01/2019 09:08

Music or a funny podcast for me.
You gotta dance, it's good exercise.

silkpyjamasallday · 14/01/2019 09:13

The music selection and following interpretive dance/sing a long is the best part of cleaning! It's why I like to send DP out when it my turn for cleaning so he can't judge me for Disney sing a longs with me acting out all of the different parts...
