I only started noticing it after the Electric Slide (which is a stain on our culture) died the death in a way that made it only acceptable to do at really bad weddings -- and that was like 1990. Is there some long tradition of line dancing that I should know about?
Someone help me out with this. And when you're done, help me with this photo:

It's dancing for people who don't know how to dance.
edited to note that I used to square dance when I was a kid. Now that is some hokey dancing.
