Sexual Bending or Comic Sans

I read this earlier today. It involves this announcement for a Wisconsin dance:


I am the last person to fight the power, but:
  • Comic sans? Really?
  • "No blue jeans" rules are ridiculous. I guess I can understand a blanket "no holes in pants" and/or "no underwear showing" rule, but the continued discrimination against blue jeans (whether at a prom or on a golf course) is ridiculous.
  • I had never heard of the term "sexual bending" before... but I'm disappointed to learn that it's only things like "hands on knees". Maybe I've spent too much time in Capitol Hill.
  • I think they meant "ensure". But when someone's using Comic Sans looking at grammar seems particularly nitpicky.

"both feet must be on the floor at all times when dancing". I'm pretty sure I can't even walk, let alone dance, with both feet on the floor at all times..."

PLENTY of options, Brandon:

1. Moonwalk.
2. The Robot.
