“Viral” is really a hard thing to nail down a definition for. I mean, sure, we all understand that it means a thing that spread around a lot, but how of “a lot” before it reaches the point of viral? Is it thousands of views? Hundreds of thousands? Millions? Over what period of time?
I suppose it’s more one of those “I don’t know how to describe it, but I know it when I see it” kind of things.
But what’s it like when it happens to YOU? Let’s see what these anonymous contributors had to say.
10. The kid
I recently saw an interview with the “Have You Ever Had a Dream” kid as an adult and it was trippy.
9. Follow back
Ok but like…if you’re following THAT many people, are you really following anybody?
8. No difference
In your life? Your mood? Your cause?
7. Backfire
Well that oughta teach them a lesson.
6. Ah, man
That’s crazy illegal. If someone does this to you and you know who it was, you have grounds for a lawsuit.
5. Show yourself!
I wonder which one it was…
4. It’s in the mail
This is how you use your powers for good.
3. Popping the question
I think they were mostly just marveling at your incredible show of wealth.
2. This just in
It really does take you aback for a minute.
1. Stalking problems
There’s a price to fame. Even fleeting fame.
Stay careful out there. Virality might not be all it’s cracked up to be.
What’s the most “viral” thing you’ve ever had a hand in?
