... but is there ever a situation in which you would refuse an okey cokey...

[MrsWembley]

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

When I worked in an SEN school a Hokey Cokey, Cupid shuffle or Superman was all in day’s work

I would have had Oops Upside Your Head at my birthday party but I'd never be able to get up these days!

Shall I make us a cheese and pickled onion hedgehog and some vol-au-vents to go with the music?

Sorry you got me there... I just looked LOG up and it means a large turd

So what is it then

Depends on whether you are a babysitter or a bramble picker

Only if it was a solemn Kraftwerk tribute event.

Even then, probably only once a year - at Te Noihydc.

I have a feeling you are being naughty here OP

Anyone remember the lambada?

@Anordinarymum

If I have had a few shandies I will do almost anything including shinning up lamposts or peeing in the front garden, so the hokey cokey is perfectly acceptable.

Having said this I haven't done any of these antics for years and more's the pity.

I remember with fondness a girl's night out when we left a pub and one friend pushed me down a street in one of those low down trolleys like you find in a garden centre. When we got to the bottom of the street I fell out and landed in dog dirt and had no idea until we got into the warm pub :(

Oh happy silly bloody days.

I had a few nights like this Oh, I miss being young!

At no point would I have refused an okey kokey!! In fact, on several occasions, I pretty certain that I was the one starting them

There has never been a situation in which anyone has offered me an okey cokey.

I feel slighted.

If we ever meet, I will immediately offer you the okey kokey...

I don't think it's meant to be the Reith Lectures, if that's what you mean....

Anyone remember the lambada?

Is that the big yellow sculpture in Liverpool....?

this thread is getting deliciously silly

God the lambada! Not thought about that one for years! I remember my parents dancing to that at the end of the night.

Our toddler class plays Hokey Cokey at the end of every messy play session and I hate it as have to carry DD for the duration of the bloody thing and it's never ending!

When I was a kid I loved that "I am the music man" song. Oompa oompa oomp pah pah.....

@RuffleCrow

If i was in america.

They don't do the best bit.

What part is that? In Canada, at least i my part of it, we call it the Hokey Pokey.

I think it should be that okie cokies are made illegal since it's not the 90s anymore.

What part don't they do?

They call it the Hokey Pokey round here. Like the ice cream.

What about the birdie song?

My 4 year old has just discovered the hokey cokey so actually found myself doing it for the first time in 20+ years the other day on Blackpool beach the other day! She was rather impressed i knew the words

When we have kids parties found here we still get the full 80s experience with superman and all!

Sadly I've been sucked into it on far too many cringe worthy moments in my dark and distant past that I care to remember.
These days I confess, i look on at the participants in sympathy and simply feel pleased to have learned to just say no 😂

I would partake with a cats bum face. Knees bend, arms stretch, rah rah go fuck yourself.

Of course!
I’m not addicted to it.

Yes to the okey cokey, no to a conga. Find congas really embarrassing but don’t know why.
