Disco polo music. In Poland, it's seen as "lower class music" and is supposed to be enjoyed only ironically or at wedding parties.

quicksand
I actually saw this documentary about people with a quicksand fetish, who go out in groups and just lounge in quicksand (without the getting swallowed/dying part). They said they loved the way it felt on their skin and being enveloped by it, among other things. It wasn't desert quicksand, but it looked kind of wet.
oh yeah I know all about it. Technically, quicksand is sand suspended in water. It has non-Newtonian properties, sand particles are able to slowly move around like a fluid, but if they move too fast they lock up. So you can sink into it slowly, if you struggle too fast it locks around you. But more commonly the term is broadened to include deep mud pits, usually clay silt, and peat bogs. All of them are denser than water, so there's no real danger of sinking under, you'll float around chest deep. Though you can push yourself under.
