The ‘Shake’ originated in Tokyo (not Harlem)
Whether it’s The Atlantic magazine1 or the CBS News2, the Internet decided to explode with the silly meme-of the-moment, “The Harlem Shake.”
What few people in the West don’t realize is that The Harlem Shake video “originated” in Tokyo, ↓ created by a gaijin/alien no less, hahaha… ^_~
Also refer to the earlier Shakeseque assault on Japanese sensibilities…

Hey that’s not my style.
The “Tokyo Shake” is strictly a Sausage Fest, from what I can tell from that Japan n00b’s videos.

Obviously, this kind of dress-like-an-idiot-and-dance-in-public video is starting to be produced more and more since dancing (and having fun, laughing and smiling in public etc.) in Japan is now against the law.
Indeed, no one, not even a cop, will go near a character like ‘The Pink Gaijin’ while he’s out in Shibuya in full gear going full-on retard! d=(^o^)=b

Some people need sailor uniform to spice up their horny friday nights…
Then… there’s Taro…
And it ’s much harder to explain to the cops when they come knocking the door at 2am because of a noise complaint from the neighbourgs…
