The "Harlem Shake" Meme is Officially Dead

We've seen a lot of the "Harlem Shake" meme, which went viral back in February and successfully catapulted Baauer to the top of iTunes and the Billboard charts. And now, we want to send our condolences to another dead meme. You think we're playing. Watch the above video; you already know what's going to happen, but we have to ask: WHY? Was it divine intervention, forcing that guy to have such a horrible ending to this goofy meme?

We've seen a lot of the "Harlem Shake" meme, which went viral back in February and successfully catapulted Baauer to the top of iTunes and the Billboard charts. And now, we want to send our condolences to another dead meme. You think we're playing. Watch the above video; you already know what's going to happen, but we have to ask: WHY? Was it divine intervention, forcing that guy to have such a horrible ending to this goofy meme?

So, DAD wants to close the casket, officially. We don't need anymore "Harlem Shake" memes being uploaded, nor do we need any "Harlem Shake" remixes being sent. Let the song live in eternity, and remember the random meme - don't add to it. RIP.
