Holy fuck talk about a flash in the pan meme. Harlem shake was a thing for what, like 4 months?
I just happened to be a conscript at the right time. We made our own version.
Was in the Marines and we did the same. No fun zone got to have fun got just a minute.
A while later I had the song in my mind and couldn't figure out what it was from, trying to remember. Until eventually I stumbled over it again.
Man, this made me realize that "flash in the pan memes" used to be so much longer lived than they are now. Nowadays something mega viral has a half life on the order of days but also has much more segmented awareness/spread
