Put Your Hands Up
The setup
The premise
Here’s the bit.
On a Friday night in a packed club, a DJ works the crowd with the classic order to put your hands up. His conditions start out flattering to the guys dancing with their dates, then narrow into claims about money, stamina and criminal records that most of them clearly cannot back up. Hands hesitate, partners glance over, and the men trade uneasy looks while two friends near the dance floor try to look casual. After a final line that calls out everyone who has just realized they are bluffing, the whole room cheerfully throws its hands up again.
