Mannequin
Challenge: Please Stop
From
Wiki, ((The
Mannequin
Challenge
is a viral
Internet video trend where people remain frozen in action like
mannequins
while a video is recorded, usually with the song "Black
Beatles" by Rae
Sremmurd playing in the background. The hashtag
#MannequinChallenge was used for popular social
media platforms such as Twitter
and Instagram.
It is believed that the phenomenon was started by students in
Jacksonville,
Florida on October 12, 2016. The initial posting has inspired
works by other groups, especially professional
athletes and sports teams that have posted increasingly complex
and elaborate videos. ))
So, we can blame
this on Florida.
I
HATE this new meme challenge. It annoys me as much as the Harlem
Shake. It probably annoys me the most because this is what cool
people consider memes...like the Harlem Shake. If it involves being
shown on camera, the cool kids will do it. It feels like a cool kids
type of meme.
I
just can't understand how and why this thing got so popular. It
doesn't make sense to me. It does feel like this stupid
meme/challenge will get out of hand too. Because I am old, I can't
understand the appeal of freezing on camera.
We
got everyone from Taylor
Swift to prisoners doing this annoying thing. For some reason,
this really bothers me, and I am not sure why though.
Besides,
the Police Squad end credits did it much better and it was more
entertaining.
