It's the smaller things in life

Hey fellow Djs,
I was talking to fellow Dj's about other fellow Dj's and we got on the topic about how other fellows play a weird moment every now and again when they DJ.
I call this Guilty Pleasure songs sometimes, other times, I would call it songs you play just to mess with the crowd...
For Example: I did the hack bit and played Posin and paused it for an extended period of time-- at THAT part. Just to get a laugh in...(it's melancholy all the way up in the Dj booth sometimes...I needed a few chucks)
Or I would play a TERRIBLE Neo-swing just to get the glares of death from the experienced dancers we have....
Just to mention, I would only do this with my local scene, because my attitude and demeanor is relatively known and it's all in good fun. I dont think I have the cajones to do this in a foriegn scene or at an event...AND I do not do this every time I DJ but sparingly, maybe 4 or 5 times a year...
How do you guys play with your dancers? if at all...(maybe...I am on an island...)
