Lindy Hop Is Like Drugs Because...

  • The first one's free, the next one's gonna cost ya
  • It's expensive
  • It changes your life style
  • It makes you feel so good
  • Some people are dealers
  • There's special equipment
  • You can't count past 8
  • You suffer withdrawal when you can't get it
  • It is the new way to advertise (instead of "heroin chic" it's "lindy chic")
  • You can't get enough of it
  • People outside can't understand why you do it
  • You give up things that used to be important to you to do it
  • You can only date within "the crowd"
  • Dealers go to high schools in the area to get the young crowd hooked
  • There is a special lingo
  • There are many names for the same thing
  • Many people try it, some become addicted
  • You think about it all the time and the next chance you will get to do it again
  • It impairs the way you see things, suddenly everything is in black and white
  • It increases your appetite
  • You begin hiding your obsession so your friends don't think anything is wrong
