Kids React to the 'Harlem Shake'

Now that the "Harlem Shake" has effectively ended (or, more accurately speaking, been beaten to its death), it's time to examine the cultural and historical impact the meme has had on society.

And who better to criticize and comment on the trend that swept the YouTube nation than children?

They can clearly see -- and honestly remark -- how freaking ridiculous everyone looks in "Harlem Shake" videos and how they serve no purpose whatsoever. As one kid puts it, "When things go viral you can get sick of them sometimes."

Another eloquent reaction to the videos stands out -- "Oh, my God."

Agreed, adorable child. Agreed.
