Well evidentally I've been out of the loop, a co-worker informed me about planking.
Move over fixed-gear bikes, planking is here. Of coarse, planking on your fixie will earn you extra hipster points.

This is the new hipster fad. Get on it before it's over. |

That said, I don't get "planking" at all. It looks ridiculous.

Owling seems even stupider, and more confusing. |

Owling is the new planking, and human flag is the new planche.  |

^ Oh! Thanks for clarifying Pookie. Sounds pretty cool, but whatever. Not like it sounds cool to me or anything. I mean, it's whatever, bro
