This better be on youtube!

It'll probably get millions of views. Almost famous, OP. Almost famous.

Come on OP. Don't be selfish. Give us the link!

( I hope I'm not thread jacking.)Our teachers made us take down the videos two classes made of the dance from YouTube, claiming we were desecrating the honor of the school they graduated from. They even threatened to expel the people who uploaded them and any other person who tries to take part in any of these projects. Both videos were successful on YouTube with more than a thousand views. :(

31- That happened to a school a few of my friends go to, but they got suspended because they wouldn't take it down.

I don't see a point in it though, yes the Harlem shake is an epitome of human ridicule at its finest, but that doesn't mean putting threats against it are going to stop it. If anything, it just makes it wanted more by the majority.

That's very true, and anyways it's going to get old soon.

A thousand views isn't very successful on Youtube. Try 1 million.

I hope he wore a horse head mask.

77- You seem to think they go to a public school. A private school can and will expel students for stuff they do outside of school if it makes the school look bad. My school has a kind of morality clause in the student handbook which we all have to sign along with our parents in order to attend the school. They have already expelled a couple kids for stuff they did on YouTube/Facebook/Twitter.

77and 79, true I am at a private school in Lebanon, and likewise we too are forced to sign a student handbook that no one( not even the teachers sometimes) reads. This video was done in class during school time, but during a period in which teachers were on strike( such that they supervise us, but do not teach). The teacher approved of he video before it was taken and even took part in it and was mentioned in the description. As for copies of the video. They still exist, but on the cameraman's camera.

Why so manh dislikes

just laugh it off op at the rate these Harlem shake videos are popping up on the web your company's will just be another grain of sand in the desert and consider the pelvic thrusting an endurance exercise for when you get to sleep with your bosses wife.

Agreed. Laugh it off! Don't be such a downer.

OP should have the confidence to take part in it- just for the fun of it, plus paid time off, fame and a possible promotion. 1 hours worth could make OP's entire life a lot easier.

Consider yourself lucky you got the best part. My boss made me fist a stuffed turtle while licking penut butter off a framed portrait of the bassist of van Halen. A

your boss is fucked in the head

Why would you even say no to the Harlem Shake? It's just a bit of fun you party pooper!

Because it's really, really stupid, most likely.

Because its idiotic and no grown person should be excited to be doing that.

well then I prefer to not grow up.

Actually, I kind of agree. The series of Harlem Shake videos I just watched do look idiotic but the amount of time it takes to film that thing is not worth calling in a lawyer and potentially losing the job.

If he can legally fire you for that, consider moving out of the third world and into civilization.

>California

Well, you got your 30 seconds of fame.

Dang right, I'm going to look this up on YouTube...

You were born for the part bro.

Links or it didn't happen.

I don't even get the whole point of it!

whats so fucking good about the harlem shake... btw your boss is a retard.

It's so mean to say the word 'retard'.

I'm having doubts about your workplace NEEDING a Harlem shake video for "the company" to the extent that termination is a reasonable punishment for not wishing to participate. You should've said no and then called your lawyer if you got fired.

Calm down, yeah?

I nearly lost 5 years of age at "lawyer".

16 & 21: what the fuck are you guys talking about

what if he's working for a company that produces parodies and such of viral videos?

If it was what OP does for a living, I doubt it would've been posted on FML. Also are there really companies that do that

I was joking. I hope those companies don't exist haha

68, College humor.

97 - shit, you're right :|
