I have no idea what the harlem shake is, even after watching a video of it and reading the knowyourmeme article on it. it still confuses me.

It's a dance style that doesn't really have anything at all to do with this trend. The music and the whole randomness factor? Unrelated.
It's another annoying fad that people will overuse, thinking that they are clever or funny, and it will be forgotten in a month.
There are some that are funny. It's nothing special, but it's not this big horrible thing that some people make it out to be.
There's not much else to add aside from what has already been said and spot-on--unfunny, obnoxious, forced, can't die soon enough, etc.
It's especially bad around here because I live very close to Harlem, and now I feel like I have to avoid it at least for the time being because I'm afraid there will be clusters of drunk idiots getting in my way on the street trying to imitate the Harlem Shake while I'm trying to go somewhere important.

Life's a performance, so give it your all like it's your last show.
It was funny the first couple of times, now it's obnoxious and annoying, just like every other internet fad.
I think of the Tunak Tunak song whenever I think of Harlem Shake, makes me think it isn't that bad until I remember that isn't the right song.
Oh wow, the NG community doesn't like something popular? So surprising I never would have seen it coming.
Yea, I farm Anal Penguins. Do something about it.
I can actually awkwardly and poorly do the real dance

Lol, first I readed "Harlem Snake" but... No, the real one is piece of fucking crap, no more comments.

Just because I'm not a rube who eats up the latest internet meme?
i like sure the punch line is random dancing,but it's like a box of chocolates
The thing gets really boring after a while...but my college is doing a shake video with about 6000 people sometime soon.

People from Harlem do not seem to appreciate the joke...

Gangnam Style was pretty cool though...
I find it enjoyable. This is why the internet is fun because one tiny little thing can become a big thing. People that are hating on it are just people that just hate things that get popular really quickly. For short they hate trends.
I thought it was funny at first, but now it is getting old and stale.
I give it 6 months. It will be forgotten. Just like everything else in this universe.

It was alright at first, but now it's been overdone.
I actually got paid to make one of those videos. As in...Someone commissioned me to do it. I think the same went for the rest of those videos.
People who see this new thing arise on the internet and think it's a cash cow. It's probably why it's popping up everywhere, and everyone is doing it.
It's like that "Fus Ro Dah" thing from Skyrim.
I mean. I remember reddit being sick of it within the first week, and those people usually end up beating dead horses.
Its a stupid trend smh.
The only people who find it funny are just kids who follow everything that goes popular annoying as gangnam style.
I do not recommend this piece of crap.
I like it, probably because it's the only Internet meme that I ever took part in (well, I did make a YouTube Poop once, but everyone hated it). It's certainly the one that I worked with the most people on. I was at a party when they did it. I don't know if it's on YouTube, but there wasn't anything particularly noteworthy about it, so I doubt it has a lot of views.
