00:00 Why are we even talking about internet trends when we could be teaching thousands of people
00:04 about Vikings?
00:05 Hinga dinga dargan.
00:06 Several months ago, 21-year-old Kaitlyn found an old American girl book from her childhood.
00:15 It's called A Smart Girl's Guide to Boys, and it's filled with valuable information
00:19 about flirting.
00:20 One page suggests a way to start a conversation at school, including, "I wish they'd teach
00:24 us more about Vikings."
00:25 To try it out, she texted a friend, "I wish they'd teach us more about Vikings."
00:29 And he responded, "What the f*ck?"
00:32 Kaitlyn's post blew up on Tumblr and Twitter, but suddenly, only recently, it's become
00:37 a huge meme.
00:38 People are texting their friends and significant others and posting the ridiculous responses.
00:43 Most of them are captioning the post, "Thanks, American girl."
00:46 That's actually great marketing for American girl.
00:48 Surprisingly, it has worked as a pickup line for some people.
00:52 So if anyone tells you they want to know more about Vikings, just tell them this.
00:56 Vikings used to boil wood in their own urine in order to make their fires last longer.
01:02 Great information.
