Welcome to... oh? The Planking trend started in 2011? I guess it got old quickly.
 
It kinda reminds me of lack of ragdoll system in older games

Smoking?

Planking is lying down as stiff as possible sometimes on some stupid dangerous surface. Is that what your doing?

Ridg3 01-20-2012 10:41 AM

Now all you need to do is pass out drunk like that. That would be sweet.

That would be yes. Minus the whole 'stupid, dangerous surface.'

People have died planking. True story.

You mean people have literally laid down and died?!

MeechMunchie 01-20-2012 11:49 AM

More laid down, fallen off and and died.

Nepsotic 01-20-2012 12:03 PM

Fallen off a hotel balcony and died. Yup, i also saw Most Annoying People 2011.

Was it one of Michael Jackson's children by any chance?

Nepsotic 01-20-2012 01:01 PM

I know one was one direction, a well deserved spot.

More people have died driving cars. Are you suggesting we should stop doing that too?

It's the cigarette that makes this picture for me.

i actually forgot i had that in my mouth. i was told about this whole 'planking' thing, thought "fuck it, let's have a go" and decided to plank on the bin during smoke break.

No its just annoying, you get crowds of people joining up in a city centreto.plank and they thinktheyre all brilliant.

Wil 01-21-2012 01:44 AM

They're more interesting than your tirade against them.

You must spread some reputation around before giving it to Wil again.
:(

I think planking is a bit pointless but I've still done it...on someone's Mercedes and someone else's Aston Martin. I was drunk. I do not know who the care owners were either...

Hey steve, guess what ive invented, yeah its planking, you just lie down and, do nothing.


Though i will admit it is true some of the things they do it on is pretty amazing, but completely mental, like on a hotel balcony rail or on a postbox. And on the top of a streetlamp.

The wording of that is creepy and arousing.

Mudokon_Master 01-21-2012 03:29 AM

I mean, what?

Crashpunk 01-21-2012 03:30 AM

Nice I wasn't expecting there to be a guy on the news reporters desk, he looked like he was going to pee his panties!

Wil 01-22-2012 12:43 AM

According to Wikipedia, "The game made news in September 2009, when seven doctors and nurses working at the Great Western Hospital in Swindon, England were suspended for playing the lying down game while on duty."

Wow. Suspended from their job for lying down. Maybe someone misheard when told they were 'lying down together'.

Phylum 01-22-2012 02:34 AM

I could imagine that would be quite serious if they were operating on a patient.

Manco 01-22-2012 02:36 AM

“Operating” on a patient.
