Avatar 2:33pm
still b/p:

I often note how the disco hits were silly and tedious to me in their day, but now I find them more worthwhile and fun-lively. A different but related reversal in the period itself I spent a few teen years bemoaning and sneering and scoffing about disco, but when I went off to school and disco-ish joints were the places to find social crowds and women of interest..that'a where I went. And danced on the Saturday Night Fever-type colored-checkerboard-lit floor.
