I'm sorry. To me, when somebody says that something has gone viral I still think of pneumonia or something just this side of The Andromeda Strain. Not a dance craze or a funny cat video.





I might be the last person on Earth who hasn't seen the full Gangman video. And no, I never did the Macaraina either.



It's one of those if everybody jumps off the bridge things.... No, I don't want to do what everybody else does.



Well, no, I already do a couple of things that EVERYBODY does. I'm still breathing, and once in awhile I have to walk down the hall and ..... you know.



Thank you.
 
Pandemic is a nicer word for that sort of gone viral.

And it says a lot about you that when your friends jump off a bridge en masse, your first thought is apparently 'my friends are all foolish and I won't be like them' and not 'are my friends ok?'.​
