I always found it odd that Internet Comedy appears not to include "is funny" as a mandatory requisite

Nope. Still not a good meme.

This is infinitely better than the porn star version that was going around this morning. The whole meme is saved.

I was hoping to be an internet hipster by declaring I'd never seen the Harlem Shake in about six months. Damn, that dream is out the window. I've seen Gangnam too, so I totally suck.

"Throughout the second week of February 2013, more than 4,000 “Harlem Shake” videos were uploaded to YouTube each day, according to YouTube’s official trend report."

Popularity might be related to it being a fun thing to do, and all you need is a camera, some friends and a crash helmet. Its a more fun group activity than planking, for example.
