Top 10 Holiday Party Offenses
Jim has been reading out loud from the Top 10 Holiday Party Offenses. It’s pretty funny. Possibly because I’ve never seen anyone krump at work. If you’re planning to attend an office party this month (or simply want to be amused), you might want to read through.

I guess I should be glad that our holiday party is at lunch and no alcohol will be served. (We did have a Halloween party that was 5pm and beer & wine, but I don’t think anybody over the age of 5 did any dancing. Thankfully.)
Was there krumping?
Oh, that list does not make holiday parties sound too fun. The author suggested on the one hand that the company is like family, but that on the other hand employees should leave spouses at home if they won’t fit in!
It’s hilarious to me that people need to be told these things! My favorite line is: ““Moreover, back flips, splits, jumps and spins can only lead to disaster.”
LOLOL
I don’t even know what krumping IS!!!
It’s a style of dance. Dave Chappelle did a documentary about it caled Rize about its development in South Central LA. I remember it being popular when I was teaching, but apparently it has grown in popularity to the point where it can be mentioned in an msn article.
Thank you Myfanwy, for asking the question I chose to ignore.
I’ve always wanted to go to the sort of office party where such rules would be necessary.
