Harlem Shake...Really?!

Okay, let's just ge one thing straight right now, shall we? Internet memes are either complete genius, or they don't make any sense and then there are the memes that are just completely random and stupid.

For example, the Harlem Shake. This merely started out as a thirty second video of a man in a mask dancing by himself, then, as soon as the bass drops there are nearly twice as many people dancing around with him. This video transcended up the ranks of internet popularity faster than a rock being chucked at your face.

Before last week I didn't even know what the Harlem Shake was, but now that I do, I wish I could reverse time and go back to the simple days when internet scandals were no more than pictures with random quotes and writings around them.

The picture above is a regular meme, not the Harlem Shake. I think that any stupid viral videos should somehow be banned from the internet as to avoid the nuisance of having to watch and hear about them twenty-four seven.

Anytime someone tries to make a Harlem Shake video, I hope they meet the same result as the man in the video below.
