Mannequin Challenge Accepted

The latest craze among those wacky millenials is the “mannequin challenge,” in which people remain motionless for long periods of time. (In a less enlightened era, this was known as “working in an office.”) In this frozen poker game, for example, everybody gets in on the act — everybody.

Reminds me of “freeze tag,” Faye.

    I loved freeze tag. I was so good at it.

      Hehe, my first thought scrolling down was ‘freeze tag’ – I remember it too!

      I used to model for life drawing classes and was told I was good at holding a pose for a long time! Hey, it’s not a flashy skill, like juggling or tap dancing, but it’s something! 🙂 This doggie would be great at it!

    Did the people do the mannequin chalenge and have to dog play dead or did they notice the dog sleeping and decide to do the mannequin chalenge?

    In other words, what came first, the doggy or the hipsters?

    Bah, the dog was the only one good at it!

    I think this needed music, reaching a crescendo when the pupster comes into view. He’s great!

      The raised leg makes it!

        I also loved seeing the dog’s teeth…just that extra sense of authenticity with the ever so slightly slackened jaw. Awww.

          Yup! That nailed it.

          Dog asks human: what’s my motivation?

  8. Faye November 23, 2016 / 5:26 pm

    I wonder what dog thinks. For once he’s not the only one playing dead.
