Internet Phenomena/Photo Fads

Summer is almost upon us, (for those in the US and the like) things are starting to heat up here in Florida. Thinking back on summers past as I drove home in the ninety degree heat I remembered the summer of 2011. The internet saw a wealth of photo fads rise up during this time period, planking, owling, tea-potting, tebowing, etc. What was your opinion on these phenomena that swept worldwide for a brief moment in time. Did you have a favorite? Did you participate in any of them? Were they stupid? The first time I was introduced to planking I thought it was hilarious and soon began performing my own planks.

  • The word you're looking for is memes. Ideas that spread quickly and are slightly modified but still carry the same theme. One can't really have an opinion on memes as a whole but I can tell you that Internet humor based memes are mostly obnoxious.
