It's...the phrase people use when something posted online gets spread around to...an unexpected extreme.

It's kind of like this. Someone sends something to a friend or a random person, and they tell everyone to share it. The important thing is...the people in the picture or the video, they don't...really want any part of that, usually. Sometimes someone films a video they intend to go viral with. But...a lot of the time, it's uninvolved people, and a lot of the time, when something goes viral... It's because someone found it funny.

That's what happened to my team. Before I was even captain. There was a stunt that went bad, and while all of us were trying to make sure the girls involved were okay... Everyone was laughing.

[ She turns with a rather forced smile. ]

In less than a week, we were all over the internet. Everyone look at the "Epic Cheerleader Fail!" Millions of people watched that video. Definitely everyone in town, teachers and classmates and just...anyone, anyone you'd see at the store or the park, and all of them...just found it funny.
