'Charlie Charlie Challenge' takes over internet; don't try it

Anything can go viral these days - anything lame.

Much like the 'what color is this dress' debate or 'the Kylie Jenner's lips challenge', the Internet has drowned itself in another senselessness activity - #CharlieCharlieChallenge.

Please do not try this - it's spooky and foolywang.

People are trying the #CharlieCharlieChallenge and posting their videos and pictures on social media sites, making the hashtag trend all over.

The #CharlieCharlieChallenge is apparently an old Mexican game that involves summoning a demon.

And this is what it involves:

1. Write the words 'yes' and 'no' in boxes on a sheet of paper.

2. Place two pencils on the calling-board in the form of a cross and say the words "Charlie, Charlie are you here?"

3. If the pencils move, it means 'Charlie' is ready to answer your questions.

So people all over the internet are trying out this 'game' and some of the results that involve lots of nervous laughter, shrieking, running out of rooms, et al.

Clearly, we don't believe any of this is real. Please don't kill the messenger.
