You smack <it> with your disco ball. Waterloo! <It> couldn't escape if <it> wanted to, and sustains X damage. WHAM! KAPOW! WHAMMO!

You swing your disco ball and disco-dance up a storm, doing an infernal X points of damage to your bewildered opponent. WHAMMO! BOINK! BAM!

Notes

• Disco Bandits start with one of these in their inventory.
• Formerly a usable item (which did nothing useful).

References

• The attack messages are chock-full of references to disco-themed songs:
  • "(Uh-huh, uh-huh) you like it (uh-huh, uh-huh)" comes from "That's The Way (I Like It)", while "shake shake shake, shake shake shake, shakes <its> booty" comes from "(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty"; both songs are KC and the Sunshine Band numbers.
  • "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees inspires part of another hit message: "(ah, ah, ah, ah) stayin' alive."
  • "Waterloo! <It> couldn't escape if <it> wanted to" is from ABBA's "Waterloo".
  • "YMCA [...] it's fun to stay there" references "YMCA" by the Village People.
  • The "panic!" message is a nod to the band formerly known as "Panic! at the Disco".
  • The successful attack "You swing your disco ball and disco-dance up a storm, doing an infernal X points of damage to your bewildered opponent," refers to the song "Disco Inferno" by The Trammps.
    (This reference may not be entirely accurate, so it needs to be double checked and properly explained and formatted. See this page's talk page for more information.)
  • "Don't stop 'til you get enough" is a reference to "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" by Michael Jackson.
