        Indeed, and here we are still talking about it.

        Something tells me we this post and the Tide Pod challenge meme don’t have a lot in common, and we won’t be talking about this one Chinese academic “dismantling” someone’s argument in seven years.

        Like, if this is “ultra-viral,” what was the tide pod challenge? Ultra-mega-viral?
