What is the deal with the elementary kids touching someone's chin and saying "something".

Now its gone from the "something" nonsense to saying "You can't see me!"

Can anyone please shed some light into this? Is it some TV show or commercial?

Its pretty annoying to have the kids giggle every time you say "something". Its even more annoying to have them blurt out "You can't see me!" randomly.

Try teaching older kids - guess what happens every time you say 'Tell me _____________?'

I actually got into an argument about that song with some my sudents. In which my viewpoint of it being a terrible song was shot down repeatedly.

But no matter how you slice it, it's a terrible song.

I think the "you can't see me" is from WWE. One of the wrestlers (John Cena) has it as their signature moves. The opponenet is flat on his back usually, Cena leans over him and flashes his hand palm facing inward back and forth. Is that what your kids are doing?

The something thing no clue....could the translation in Korean be one of those double meaning things. or if you twist the pronunciation slightly it has a "dirty" meaning?
