... no matter how mean spirited you were or how awful your personal situation was?

Huh?

JayAlfredPrufrock · 06/11/2020 22:09

How many people are needed?

dudsville · 06/11/2020 22:12

Yes, yes there is. I'm of an age now where I can refuse to the hokey cokey completely guilt free.

Calmandmeasured1 · 06/11/2020 22:14

Qué?

lemmywinks84 · 06/11/2020 22:14

I can't think of many situations in which I'd willingly participate.

Possibly if David Attenborough, Michelle Obama, Stewart Lee and Arsene Wenger invited me as a group. Which will never happen.

A 2 metre distanced okey dokey. Well... not many needed surely. I hate this type of crap at the best of times. Faux fun is so not my game.

Is that what it's all about?

A Hokey Cokey probably, because I’d fall over !

lemmywinks84 · 06/11/2020 22:36

Anything reminiscent of an 80s/90s family pub back room disco kind of makes me quake with fear and want to run like the wind.

Even as a child I remember hiding under tables to avoid being made to join in. I couldn't bear it.

SantanaBinLorry · 06/11/2020 22:37

You can do the okie cokie sitting down - more inclusive.

Tistheseason17 · 06/11/2020 22:37

I'd decline oops upside ya head.. can't get back up these days!
Hokey cokey fine! 💃💃💃

FrankiesKnuckle · 06/11/2020 22:38

I'm more of an oops upside your head kinda girl.

Or Saturday night.

missmouse101 · 06/11/2020 22:41

It's HOkey Cokey. I'd refuse it every bloody time. I'm too fat for that malarkey.

Witchymoo · 06/11/2020 22:44

Nah not for me , none of them , not even auld Lang sine

Ritasueandbobtoo9 · 06/11/2020 22:45

Arms stretch, knees bend, Rah Rah Rah!

Sparklesocks · 06/11/2020 22:45

I used to hate them as a kid as I’d get pulled over when everyone ran in. Fortunately hasn’t really come up much in adulthood, doesn’t seem as prevalent!

Nah, gotta be a Macarena, or if you feel really adventurous a Cha Cha Slide.

No one does The Superman anymore though [sad face]
