Brit piss, a Primer:
A piss up: Going out and getting drunk.
Taking the piss: Joking, teasing, busting someone's balls
A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything.

I can't even.
A piss up: Going out and getting drunk.
The Brit equivalent of "unable to organize a two-car funeral on a one-way street". Doubt the shrubites could handle that either.

They'd probably just contract it out to Halliburton for a couple mil.

I'm not the man they think I am at home...
ARGH.
Oh, and also, I'm not sure "Love Shack" is really the universal crowd-pleaser wedding DJs think it is. I mean, it's fun, but it's a bit played, don't you think? I find "Sweet Home Alabama" to be a better choice (though I know that technically? more played).

Which means it's now replaced "Rocket Man" in my head. Less annoying, but more likely to make me break out the air guitar while at work, so I'd really like to get rid of it. Meanwhile, either one is better than what I had stuck in my head while flying to Michigan, which was "Rednecks". Blurting that one out would be bad in all kinds of ways.
ETA: You know, I can and will have a conversation with myself if no one joins me. I have no shame.

No, neither is Old Time Rock and Roll, nor Celebration.

Hush your mouth.

Tainted Love is good, although this DJ skipped that one. Other than Love Shack as his closer (better, at least, than Rock Lobster) and the inexplicable absence of Tainted Love, he was pretty good. Even included Lady in Red, which is my shameful secret love.
Oops. Not so good with those shameful secrets, am I.

LIR has a special place in my heart, too. It was the love theme for Patch and Kayla, lo, these many years ago on Days of Our Lives.

I hate Lady in Red.
Oh no, wait. I don't. I hate Simply Red. Ah, the 80s.
