Planking

The latest and by far the lamest internet craze in which "people" (mostly bored juveniles and and immature, attention-seeking virgins) participate in.

It involves lying down on your stomach in a public place, with your arms on your side and feet pointed, trying to resemble a plank.

"Plankers" will often take photographs of themselves and post them on facebook, so that their other planking friends can see what an amazing accomplishment they have achieved.

These are the official rules of planking according to there Facebook page:

When performing a Plank:

1/ You must always lay face down, ensuring your face remains expressionless for the duration of the Plank.

2/ Your legs must remain straight, and together with toes pointed.

3/ Your arms must be placed by your side, held straight and fingers pointed.

4/ You must make it known that you are Planking. Saying 'I am Planking' usually get this across. Sternly announcing it will ensure a good result.

5/ Your safety should always be considered. Properly thought through Planking procedures should always go to plan. Never put your self at undue risk.

6/ Every Plank that is captured must be named.

Flag Planting

The art of claiming items in a community fridge by planting a toothpick flag. You may plant it directly into any food item, or tape it to the side of a beverage. Becomes necessary when writing your name in sharpie doesn't cut it.

Once a system of flag planting is in place, you may also use it to claim un-flagged items. They'll learn the necessity of flag planting very quickly.

"Did you write your name on them?"

"That's the messed up part man, I did!"

"You better start flag planting."

"I've been forced to start flag planting to keep these savages off my party leftovers."

"Dude, who flag planted my PBJ?"

Planking Spanking

This is a form of "meme busting" where you interrupt a person about to have their photo taken by a friend or their cam set to auto while they are planking. Most commonly this interruption is in the form of spanking that persons ass rather hard with with a paddle or other blunt object.

Throwing water on the person is also a hilarious way to "spank their plank".

It is important to remember to have a friend or your own cam set to auto to take a picture of this while you do it. It is very funny if the victim's own camera or friend taking their picture is also in he shot so you can capture their reaction as well.

There are also ways to plank spank that do not involve contact or soiling the victim such as (but not limited too):

Farting near them

Blowing an air horn

Yelling at them "memes are stupid!"
