As you may or may not have heard: We have/had been hit with the viral case of the "Harlem Shake". What is the "Harlem Shake"? It has nothing to do with the district of Harlem, NY but is a meme created by some teens in Queensland, Australia. These teens happen to choose a song named "Harlem Shake" for their meme. It starts out with someone dressed with a helmet/obscene costume dancing in gyrating pelvic thrusting movements for 15 seconds (while everyone is mind their own business). Then when the bass line drops, everyone dances crazily and often with weird props or costumes.
Corporations have also caught onto this "Harlem" bug.... Carl's Jr US has submitted their Facebook a fan version, and KFC US has their "Harland Shake".
I wonder if this fad will last as long as Kony 2012?
