    Trying to remember where I first heard about planking. I think it was just yesterday.

    Whoops, no, it was day before yesterday.

    Hmm, I wonder if you got the same glitch I just got.

    I tried to post a comment, and it then told me I had to wait 30 sec, because I'd just posted.

    And then I went back, and it was there, just fine.

    Weird.

    Also, topping.

    Planking? Where you use metaknight invincibility frames to camp the ledge?

    I hope so only in that I happen to know that if someone ices you, and you have one on you, you can "counter-ice" them back, so in that way, I hope it works exactly the same way.

    "Trying to top me? I had Chipotle for lunch, bitch!"

    What Is Planking?

    XBydm.jpg Casey Chan — Planking is blowing up the news these day. Old people would say it's another instance of why the youth is screwed. Kids would fire back that it's the most fun you can have being still. Who's right? And just what the hell is planking?

    It's a stupid internet sensation...

    Planking is the act of lying facedown for a photograph. The term planking originated from Australia but is actually just another name for 'the lying down game' (I'm not kidding). The specific instructions: to put your body face down to the ground (or table, or object, or anything) with your arms to the side. Yeah.

    ...that's really, really stupid...

    Again, the act itself is to lie down on the ground. Anybody can do that, right? That's why kids are getting crazier. You get creativity points for planking in odd places like trees branches. Or escalators. Or animals! Or balls. The more wild you get, the 'better' the picture will be.

    ...but is huge on Facebook.

    The Official Planking Facebook page has over 180,000 fans and tons of pictures showcasing the best plankers around the world. Hell, the whole idea about planking is to upload it to your Facebook account so your friends can see it, as planking alone is not planking at all.

    Unfortunately, it's not all fun and games...

    An Aussie man died for trying to plank on a balcony, plummeting 7 stories to the ground. Police are growing concerned that people are trying to one up each other in their planking.

    ...so don't go nuts if you plank...

    I think a safe policy would be to not plank anywhere you wouldn't sit.

    ...or really, just don't plank at all.

    Come on, people.

    When I googled planking, the first bunch of results were about some girl who died while doing it, while not saying what it was.

    My interest was only piqued FURTHER.

    The thing about planking is that it should be silly fun, where you find actual creative ways to plank.

    The camel shot on the previous page for example is hillarious.

    However most people are just trying to make it extreme and do it on the side of buildings and shit, and to be honest that's kinda boring and stupid.
