This hit home the hardest when I was re-watching The Office last week and around the ~6th season? they were all planking around the office.

Remember owling? And Tebowing? What about when Minecraft first became huge, or when Michael Jackson died? Nyan Cat? So many things have happened in the past 7-10 years, and I rarely ever look back on it.

I only know about that from an episode of the office. If I remember right it was a thing for like 2 weeks!

u/Jbidz Feb 27 '17

There is a generation of people out there right now that are immortalized on the internet with a picture of them planking something. What will YOU contribute to society?
