      I can’t wait for that to be done so I can torture my kid with it. Wearing out an already worn out fad on your kids is a big reason you have them in the first place. I’ll be on my death bed with the doctor telling my family that treatment would cost 67 million and then yelling it at the to of my lungs.

    The only good instance of this is when people did it on a set of escalator railings which resulted in them spinning. That was fun. All other planking was stupid

        I admit this is quibbling over semantics, but it was stupid when they spun on the escalator, too, but that was funny and interesting. Laying flat on things was boring and uninteresting, the joke of it being that it was boring and uninteresting, therefore infuriating to those who weren’t playing along with the joke.

    On 29 May 2011, Max Key, son of New Zealand Prime Minister John Key, uploaded to Facebook a photograph of himself planking on a lounge suite, his father standing behind him. Afterwards, the photograph was reproduced on the front page of the New Zealand Herald. Confirming that the photograph was indeed genuine, John Key remarked that he didn’t see anything wrong with planking when done safely. Key was criticised for his appearance in the photograph, with some going as far as to comment that he “killed” the meme.
