I was stuck listening to Hip Hop in the shuttle from the parking lot to work. The line was:
"I wanna dance on your disco stick."
I realized I have no idea what that means. First, what in the world is a disco stick? I've seen my fair share of disco dive movies and I have no memory of a disco stick. Second, I'm now much more acquainted with sex than I was months ago, thanks to getting married, so, while I'm sure it's meant to be obvious sexual euphemism, I have no clue how one would actually perform a disco dance on the 'disco stick' implied. From what I know of disco, it involved a lot of jive walking and spinning around while holding hands....that seems rather tame for hip hop. Maybe all the incredibly poetic lyricist knew about disco was that finger up and down move, though doing that while you do that has just brought into mind a very giggle-worthy image ripe for inclusion in the Hot Shots or Naked Gun movies from the 1990s.
Now that I'm done feeling old, I blog my residual child....enjoy the Harry Potter happiness.

I had the dial stuck on the classic rock station through most of jr high & high school and I rarely questioned the lyrics. Now when I listen to some of those lyrics it makes me glad I was a bit naive and didn't understand what I was listening to. I would have been blushing all the time. God bless the youth of today. Now go get your groove on!
