Your poll options suck, I didn't pick any of them.
Overall I am okay with the Harlem Shake. Some are bad, but some are great. I don't know why some people are so frustrated with it. So you think it's not funny? Okay, then don't watch them, you don't have to. There is a pause button for you to use.
Thanks for that. It's certainly an interesting... technique. I find it hard to accept it as a 'dance' of sorts. I think it qualifies as a valid attempt to confuse your enemy in combat, though. The motions just remind me of things I've seen in people with severe neurological problems.
Alright, so after avoiding any videos of this fad, which I keep seeing popping up everywhere, I finally sat down and watched a few videos.
I... I don't get it.
So all it is is just a bunch of people gathering around doing random dances to some Spanish techno music? Is... is that it?
That's... spectacularly underwhelming.
The first I heard of it was Loading ready run's vid on it and I had to youtube it to get what they where on about. It was funny the first time but really doesn't have much staying power.

I'm channelling Statler and Waldorf here but I like the Harlem Shake because it's short. 30 seconds is a good length for a meme so that you know it's over soon even now that we're reaching (or have already reached) the point where it's no longer amusing.
Beats sitting through a full-length Gangnam Style each time.
It's something you wish you'd thought up when first seeing it because it looks really fun.
