Explainer: Twerking, Droppin’ it Like it’s Hot, Dippin’ it Low, Backin’ it Up Slow, Shawty Gettin’ Low Low

TwerkingOur very own alluson asked:

What’s the difference between twerking and dropping it like its hot?
Or dippin’ it low and backing it up slow?
Or shawty getting low low low when she’s wearing her boots with the fur?

As an expert on such subjects Ofkinheimer has produced the definitive guide on all such matters.

1. “Twerking” is just one continuous motion that primarily employs the lower back, pelvic and gluteal muscles. Dancers bend to their knees slightly, anchor their hands on knees and use to the lower back to ignite repetitive continuous movement around the midsection. The ideal position is similar to trying to take a shit in a public toilet and not wanting your ass to touch the nasty ass toilet. Envision this. See?! Once in this position, wave your ass around. The more fat you have around that general area, the more pronounced the jiggling is. Continue reading

Tuesday Daytime Open Thread

Hello Crasstalk! Hope you are having a wonderful day and are ready for more exciting happenings in our little corner of the web.
Quick announcement. Lady_E would like to pass on that she picked a winner for this weekend’s bookshelf contest. The lucky contestant was Mr. P_Mouse with this amazing description of his collection:

As with my dog, if you take issue with my choice/juxtaposition of books, you will at best be suffered in silence, at worst given the bum’s rush and never invited back.

Also, as we have something on the order of 10,000 books and no discernable capacity for logical organization, nearly every provocative grouping is purest random chance.

That said, I do occasionally amuse myself with groupings (although no one else has ever noticed, as far as I know)

For example, there’s “Elaine’s corner.”,

Elaine herself, of course, is at the so-called “Late” table now : she’s there next to Sinatra and Jackie O; nearby, Truman Capote and Bill Styron sneer and snicker at a rakishly tilted Mailer who’s trying to look up Germaine Greer’s skirt before stabbing her. (Mailer’s a nightmare: none of the other books want to be shelved anywhere near him.)

Woody’s over there (Without Feathers), and also without Soon-Yi; tonight he’s got Lolita on his arm — the real one — while Nabokov’s sardonic ghost looks on with the amused disdain of a true aristo before turning again to Candace Bushnell and Jimmy Breslin.

Tom Wolfe is making the rounds, but the others are flinching away a bit; it’s the glare of that damn jacket — these days Tom is regarded as you might a fluorescent bulb about to burn out, casting rather a harsh light that falters and flashes in the MOST annoying way, and buzzing now and then, randomly. But he’s a fixture, after all.

I am not sure what he wins besides bragging rights, but since we are talking about reading and Crasstalk, bragging rights are kind of a big deal. Thanks to everyone who shared their book habits.

Here’s a little sunshine to get you going today.

Have a great day and don’t fight the funk.

Hi guys. A lot of people have said “hey, I can’t see the Amazon.com link! What is this you speak of? Well, you need to turn off Adblock Plus, for Crasstalk. We promise we won’t run cheeto ads. Please, please, turn it off. Here’s how!
1. See the red stop sign on the top right of your toolbar? It says “ABP” on it. Left click on it.
2. There’s an option that will say “disable for crasstalk.com” – check it.
3. The sign should now turn green for Crasstalk.com

ALSO! Adobe has fixed some MAJOR bugs in FlashPlayer. Unless you’re super l33t like Dogz, you’ll need to update. Easy method: go over to Browsercheck.qualys.com and let it search for updates. It works on Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. You’ll be happy when you don’t look at your credit card statement and see mysterious charges coming from a Belarussian strip club. Have a nice day!
