We're pathologically social. We're professional leisurists. We're burrito lovers, bar flies, art whores and music nerds. We dish the good dirt, and we'll risk a parking ticket for a cheap sample sale. Sometimes, we blog drunk.

One vote for: bringing back Jazzercise



A little backstory: Instead of dinner, I just ate three columns of Ritz crackers. Doing the math, I realized this was the caloric equivalent to eating four Big Macs. 

Cut to me wondering why, if neon colors and sweatbands have resurrected themselves, Jazzercise hasn't made a triumphant return. Seriously, I'd hit some classes if they had a decent soundtrack. I'm thinking a little Klaxons, some Digitalism, maybe throw in some Robot moves with The Pity Party...

I even seem to remember Cobrasnake getting his sweat on as an aerobics instructor for Paper Mag 's quick west coast lovefest a few years back. Why did it not stick?!

Fist on table, ready to get funky, I say we mobilize our forces and crank up the jams in a dark, disco-riffic workout/club setting. Good for the ears, excellent for the booties.   

(As a prime example of No-Not-Quite-But-Thank-You, I present video of L.A.'s beloved Ditty Bops' induction into Jazzercise fame. Warning: may contain footage of older women shaking their ta-tas. But the payoff comes at the end as Ditty Bop and former model Amanda Barrett is seen in a skin-tight aerobics getup and pink hair. Even as a straight chick, I'll admit that's hot.)
