Knock Knock. Who’s There? Definitely Not Your Sanity.

Ah, the internet. Home of groundbreaking innovation, heartwarming cat videos, and… people kicking your front door for ‘likes’. Yes, folks, the latest trend making the rounds, prompting police warnings faster than you can say “property damage,” is the delightful ‘Door Kicking Challenge’.

Because apparently, scrolling aimlessly wasn’t enough, we’ve collectively decided that the peak of online entertainment is assaulting innocent residential portals. The premise? Walk up to a stranger’s house, give their door a good boot, film it, and upload it to TikTok. Revolutionary, I know.

What thrilling payoff awaits these digital daredevils? A few thousand views, maybe a viral moment that lasts until breakfast, and a potential felony charge. A truly excellent ROI on potential broken bones and legal fees.

It perfectly encapsulates the modern internet paradox: do something monumentally stupid and disruptive for the most fleeting, meaningless validation imaginable. While the rest of us are trying to figure out if we need another streaming service, a select few are out there providing free target practice for their footwear, blissfully unaware that doorbell cameras exist and police departments have, you know, *jobs*.

So, next time you hear a suspicious thud, it might not be Amazon. It could just be peak internet culture knocking. Or rather, kicking.
