Planking, owling and ... batting? Here are a few ideas for the next photo craze

Everything gets old eventually, but on the Internet things get old really fast. For instance, planking didn't take long to jump the shark. Its successor, owling, died in the womb. And now we have batting — as in, impersonating a bat by hanging upside-down — to wish death upon. Surely, though, another photo craze will spring up to replace the last one, so we thought we'd propose a few of our own.
Penciling
Simple. Just do a headstand — without using your hands.
Backwoodsing
Squat so that the backs of your thighs are resting on your calves. Wince really hard.
Roofing
This requires two people. Stand facing each other, about four feet apart, then lean in and rest your foreheads together. It's an A-frame, obviously.
Elephanting
Tuck one hand behind your back, and wave the other in front of your nose. You won't look at all stupid, trust us.
Puking
Hunch over and put your hands on your knees. For added effect, tuck your neck in and open your mouth as wide as possible.
Slanting
While standing, lean your body forward — a la Michael Jackson — as far as possible without falling over.
Birthing
Please don't ask us to describe this one.
