Salsa quiz mania

Rules are: Make it Salsa related, funny/quirky/sad/off-the-wall/etc and to impart a bit of knowledge.

I'll start...


Weight-shifting with Salsa is about:

a) Moving heavy objects like Sofas, to salsa music on your stereo.
b) A new form of diet plan, involving only eating Salsa dips.
c) A way of measuring how much you've spent this month on Salsa, using weight-scales and gold.
d) How far you can push and pull a follower around the dance room. As you get better at this 'art-form' you get letters on your belt, that eventually spell A-S-S-H-O-L-E.
e) Transfering your weight from foot-to-foot during dancing so that bits of your body move well, and are less likely to drop off in later life.
 
Tumbao:

a) Painful yelp of salser@s who just came back from the dentist's with numbed lips when they got stepped on on the dance floor.
b) Chinese dish with chicken and cashew nuts flavored with salsa.
c) A repeating pattern by rhythm section instruments (bass, piano, percussion).
d) What Klimax lead singer Calunga got when he called for it in Catarro Chino.
 
c! But then again b) sounds like something that I should remember for my 'experimental cooking'. ;)
 
Eye contact

The girl you are dancing with is not making eye contact with you. Too bad for you because she's a great follow, very popular, and a real hottie. So sad for you... really, so sooo sad… But this is no time to fret because you still have more than half the song to go and you have the following options available. Should you:


a) Unleash your super secret, experimental, acrobatic salsa move that you've spent months perfecting on the trampoline in your backyard. Should you stick the landing, you are certain that she will forever admire you and be captivated by you and your amazing dexterity. Only good can come of this but *only* if you manage to stick it. Peril, desolation, and a likely trip to the ER will await you if you miss it.​

b) Break into that salsa shine you've been joyfully dancing to, in your underwear, when house cleaning around the house. Rich with styling elements taken from Beyonce's Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) video, you are certain it will uproot deep hidden passions in her and she will be powerless to resist gazing deeply into your [insert your eye color here] eyes. But be careful, because it could backfire and creep her out. Unless you’re Justin Timberlake, there is a high likelihood that your creative adaptation will only return a look of scorn and disgust.​

c) [Moderator: Removed after request from Park and Wildlife Services. Pursuant to regulation A121 section B: Juggling small animal outside of a licensed circus is a misdemeanor in California and punishable up to $200 dollars, per infraction.]​

d) Do nothing and don't sweat it. It's nothing to take personally. Some people just don't like eye contact.​

Thanks everybody!

I'm glad everyone liked my quiz! I noticed the moderator removed my option C. Too bad, because I've had some success with it. Oh well, it's probably for the best. Trying to stuff your cat into your shoe bag is a logistical nightmare. YMMV. Good luck.
 
Which of the following does NOT describe a true salsero:

a) Pretty much every girl I know is either a teacher or a nurse, or training to be one of them, and pretty much every guy I know is in IT, except the one who was in the army, but he went off to be in the army.
b) The music I play in my car was cited during each of my last 3 relationship break-ups
c) I don't think it's OK for people to wear shades indoors but secretly wish I had the chutzpah to do so
d) I do it because I love tight pants and sequined shirts
e) Year on year, I spend more on dancing than maintaining my home

Nice try but your post wasn't edited. Someone said that cats, the feline ones, are not into salsa at all. So therefore:

Salsa cats are all of the below except:
a) Musicians who can keep a beat, hold a tune or blow a line and are so bored with other genres they just had to switch.
b) Folks who hang out at the bar watching the action on the floor.
c) Guys with shades and hats in dark sun sheltered places.
d) Girls with wardrobes that rarely (never) malfunction.
e) 70+ folks who have cycled through the mambo craze, the classic salsa period and are still at it.
