The ever-excellent Richard Glover presents: Mardi Gras For Straights and Squares, in which, starring with the Trakky Dak Liberation Leaugue and People Who Don't Know Who Kate Ritchie Is, you will find:
Gay Men Who Can't Dance It will be a busy weekend for the Gay Men Who Can't Dance, the only float being entered in both the Oxford Street parade and its suburban offshoot. "We feel doubly oppressed," says float organiser Adrian "Two-Left-Feet" Adriani. "If a straight man can't dance, everyone thinks it's cute but with a gay man there's no tolerance. Just cruel, high-pitched laughter." Adrian's partner, Dave, agrees. Limping slightly from a badly bruised foot, he says the group wants to reach out to others oppressed by stereotypes. "Already," he says, "we've had meetings with the Italian Mammas Who Can't Cook and the Indian Dads Who Don't Care If Their Sons Aren't Doctors. Tentative feelers are also being put out to the Aussie Blokes Who Just Can't Abide The Taste Of Beer. The float will consist of 25 gorgeous gay men, all of them dancing like drunk labradors.

If you are referring to the story I told you on Wednesday, you are forgetting something: I was terribly pissed. This, of course, negates one's ability to comprehend one's own poor dancing. Also, there was little dancing going on to begin with.
