karma

ghost riding the whip is a new underground form of expressing one’s youthful exuberance, popularized by the hyphy hip-hop style out of the bay area. the trend is characterized by jumping out of your slow moving vehicle while it’s still in motion, and dancing on and around it as it continues forward without a driver.

naturally, it’s immensely popular with stupid white suburban would-be gangsters, and since everyone has video cameras now, it’s all over youtube.

and obviously, it can go both catastrophically and hilariously wrong.
