College admissions.
As inspired by Kdunk , but I used to do Elvis karaoke in college. Full hip-shaking, leg-twisting, lip-curling impersonations. Usually to "Blue Suede Shoes." But I have been known to crank out a freaky "Burning Love." And occasionally a little "Return to Sender."
And I was sober.
I'm not sure if I should be more embarrassed about karaoke or that I was sober in college.
I'm betting on the latter.

For three years of college I lived in a giant ex-frat house with 18 guys and girls. Since we were not an officil campus organization, we had some of the greatest parties known to Syracuse University.
Often, after a blowout, people would come up to me and say "Man, you were so loaded last night. You came downstairs naked and just stayed naked all night long, dancing and running around. Do you remember any of that?"
They would look so scared when I told them I hadn't been drinking on the night in question. Don't be embarrassed, man — if you pull the stick out of just one person's ass you're fulfilling your spiritual destiny. Maybe Elvis is your path. (My spiritual karaoke path is Kajagoogoo — I can fucking tear up "Too Shy.")

I think it's been scientfically proven that "True" by Spandau Ballet is the greatest of all karaoke songs. At least when warbled by me when I am very drunk.

But it only works if he feels the beat of the tambourine.

ok jimbo i think you already know this, but we've all done karaoke at one point or another and we were all drunk. the part you should be concerned with is the lack of hedonistic beer bonging you failed to participate in. perhaps you should make it up now by doing illicit substances with me. *nod*
