friend: urg fuck Skibidi toilet

me: We watched the fucking Idiot box last night! it's the same fucking shit!

indigothoughts.bsky.social•38 days ago

If anything, Skibidi Toilet convinces me that GMod/SFM YouTube culture never died.

makeitsnow.bsky.social•38 days ago

right? as an elder millennial, skibidi toilet was instantly legible for me because 1) it’s garry’s mod and 2) it’s nonsense

pxtl.ca•38 days ago

It took all my strength to not explain to the kids that Skibidi Toilet has Raep Face. I've always hated Raep Face.

zeta-strike.bsky.social•38 days ago

I mean, this would've been from post 2012, watched on a phone and consumed by the elder half of gen Z in their early teens and tweens or younger.
Skibiti is pretty late gen Z and gen alpha. And a difference and what I dislike is how its become a "brand" of sorts.

tamtroll.bsky.social•38 days ago

Skibidi toilet actually has a lot more substance compared to this one video. it's got plot, characters, story, themes, it's really good. (Assuming you're watching the actual original source and not BS content-farm stuff)

starstrucksystem.bsky.social•39 days ago

Skibidi toilet is brainrot, kids nowadays don't know high brow entertainment like youtube poops, SFMs, and rage comics

gemflye.bsky.social•38 days ago

What generation is this. I fear for The train yard.

merlinfur.bsky.social•37 days ago

It's crazy how weirdly deep Skibidi toilet gets as it goes on

dog1.bsky.social•31 days ago

I can hear this without even listening to it.

ariaofeffect.live•38 days ago

Every generation had their own brainrot…

what’s todays skibidi toilet is:
- yesterdays youtube poop
-last weeks vine
- last months fred/annoying orange
- last years three stooges…

argenben.bsky.social•38 days ago

Nah nothing is broken, kids are dumb (affectionate). It's fine, that's what kids are for.

Never forget “We drink Ritalin” (Hot Limit) from 2002. Recently revisited and I had forgotten how much Hitler was in it as a ??? gag.

we used to put Hitler in more stuff ironically cause it felt safely in the past. Ahh, what fools we were.

ehcb.itch.io•38 days ago

I seriously don't get why Millennials are baffled by Skibidi Toilet. It's a Gary's Mod cartoon! That's OUR shit! We invented this artform!

lonelyandroid.bsky.social•32 days ago

I honestly understand Skibidi toilet/Gen Alpha brain rot more than Gen Z because it is so similar to the dumb shit I found funny at that age

meowdelyn.bsky.social•38 days ago

microplastics are doing to us what lead did to the boomers.

pfkelly.bsky.social•38 days ago

This is still funny as fuck lmao

satogamedev.bsky.social•32 days ago

endblock.bsky.social•40 days ago

Skibidi toilet is a lot of things, but impenetrable is definitely not one of them. It builds up so fucking slowly that you'd have to be a fucking idiot to be unable to penetrate it.

nexthebadger.bsky.social•38 days ago

So many don't even remember the legend that is Gmod Idiot Box...

solais.bsky.social•38 days ago

There is something beautiful in knowing that today's brainrot was made with the same Source engine assets as 20 years ago.

hiyu.bsky.social•38 days ago

Gmod and SFM have always been peak

sigfrial.bsky.social•37 days ago

Agreed here. I like to remind people that every generation has its own flavor of brainrot content. There's zero difference lol

starsthemutt.bsky.social•38 days ago

This is engrained in my brain.

carzakeys.bsky.social•38 days ago

This is unreasonably hilarious and I can't explain why 🤣

atronachsaura.bsky.social•38 days ago

:D oh hell yea this is gonna be stuck in my head again for a year lets GOOOO

sarkyfancypants.bsky.social•32 days ago

I was talking to my s/o about this and it is very true actually. And yet, what I personally think makes modern brainrot more jarring is that now it becomes marketable and capitalism garbage. Back then it felt more like its own creative expression for teens to watch after school.

meowdelyn.bsky.social•32 days ago

That's just capitalism being more nakedly extracting from the global north now, not a quality inherent to the gen alpha memes.

meowdelyn.bsky.social•32 days ago

Half life full life consequences didn't have merch, not because it was inherently above that, but because the very idea of someone who made their living online was barely even realized yet.

meowdelyn.bsky.social•32 days ago

if it came out today, it would have a movie deal.

sierraofsolitude.bsky.social•38 days ago

But this is actually funny

robinbobcat.bsky.social•38 days ago

My favorite is the collaboration with Brian May - yes THAT Brian May - to protest a planned cull of badgers in the UK.

There are no words for this level of amazing.

vexwerewolf.bsky.social•38 days ago

Yeah like I'm uncomfortable writing off Gen Z/Gen Alpha as "irrecoverably brainrotted" when millennials are the ones who invented YTP

maxlegwolf.bsky.social•38 days ago

Nobody was writing lore or creating merch about this, though.

pizzachu.bsky.social•38 days ago

There's this lack of self awareness amongst these dorks.

GenZ brainrot accelerates faster due to social media, but YTPs were esoteric messes of injokes and references to references to references by 2010.

carniedat.bsky.social•38 days ago

I feel like the difference is that YTPs were mostly a community of people all feeding off each other, and the jokes from them mostly stayed on the internet and in online chatrooms. The fact that modern brainrot content sticks around and enters IRL pop culture as slang is a massive shift.

hyaenigay.bsky.social•38 days ago

I genuinely do not understand the pearl-clutching about Skibidi Toilet when it isn't anything unique from the weird internet humor that's been around for decades. When I was 15, I watched YTpoops that were more scandalous than that.

lulz.network•38 days ago

and here i thought this song was lost forever.

thank you meowdelyn friend.

goldkin.bsky.social•38 days ago

A streamer I follow popped off with "skibidi toilet is just machinima", and that's been living rent free in my head for awhile now.

mathewh88.bsky.social•38 days ago

This still is funny

saren42.bsky.social•38 days ago

Alot of people, don't believe the shit they thought was funny when they were kids were brain rot, but most of the stuff kids find funny is largely brain rot, and that's ok. It's passes the time, and helps gives you generational memories and a identity.

elliewheezer.bsky.social•31 days ago

i think the difference is that this video is a one-off while a lot of brainrot stuff is beating a dead horse and milking it dry

incantrix.bsky.social•38 days ago

What I find "impenetrable" about skbidi toilet is how 90s it is. Like it was made up by a tv writer who grew up in the 90s and assume that's also kids today. I guess he was so out of touch that he really nailed it, so, good for you man!

lewddragon.bsky.social•38 days ago

I still remember YTMND. Shit didnt make any sense at all but i laughed my ass off. I also have accepted my humor doesn’t match Gen Z but not gonna get mad at them.

kalina2hu.bsky.social•37 days ago

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ3oHpup-pk there was one that mashed this up with the imperial march from star wars

Like, I don't like the toilet thing either. It scares me. BUT WE ARE NOT FREE OF SIN!!!! We are just as cringe and goofy.

Nostalgic for this video, tho.

zebesian.bsky.social•37 days ago

I still fucking love this thing. Gen z isn't all that different from us.

Gen Alpha:

meowdelyn.bsky.social•37 days ago

to be clear, this is great. I love this.

zebesian.bsky.social•37 days ago

I remember all the stupid bullshit I laughed at in highschool. This is literally the same stuff, just with different source material.

meowdelyn.bsky.social•37 days ago

oh yeah, for sure. Heck i can even trace the path of absurdism from one to the other.

zebesian.bsky.social•37 days ago

Its a straight freaking line, I dunno what everyone else is complaining about.

I will add that when this came out I worked at the same dev studio as the guy who was the model for Father Grigori (who is a nice, taciturn, professional fellow) and for a while I had to make a Will save every time I saw him to just Be Normal because my brain was shrieking BANANAPHOOOOONE

murderblonde.bsky.social•38 days ago

...ok I checked the video's release date and holy shit it was more I saw it like 6 years after it first came out
(Which makes me think a coworker sent me to it with hilarious deliberateness)
But these videos from our past, they have LEGS somehow I doubt more RECENT fare will /sniffs disdainfully)

abluehairedfox.bsky.social•38 days ago

I think the difference though between old SFM memes and Skibidi Toilet is that the old memes didn't overstay their welcome. Just for a quick laugh.
Meanwhile Skibidi Toilet has been in the mainstream for about two years now, has become a whole-ass franchise, and even made it into Fortnite.

Fortnite will gargle the balls of anything that can scrape a few more bucks out of parents wallets, though.

I never got into these back in the day (too old), but I knew they existed and were the kind of thing I thought of when skibidi became a thing. People can forget how dumb the shit they loved as a kid was, I guess.

qlippot.bsky.social•38 days ago

Still there's definitely a direct line of descent from TeamFortress and GarysMod stuff to Skibidi Toilet.

Like for gosh sakes, the guy in the toilet IS THE G-MAN.

jsharkey67.bsky.social•38 days ago

That was what I was getting at. Silly TF2 stuff is just an ancestor of silly Skibidi stuff, and I don't know why some foolks' memories are so short.

ethelredhorse.bsky.social•38 days ago

Acting like The Three Stooges, which is 90 years old, isn't the same level of brain rot is just plain revisionist. Lmao

masonasaro.bsky.social•30 days ago

3 stooges was only brainrot by depression era standards. nowadays you can still look back at a 3 stooges short and know the plot, as unimportant as it was

micahweil.bsky.social•38 days ago

You could understand the story the Three Stooges were trying to tell.

ethelredhorse.bsky.social•38 days ago

The only issue I actually understand having with skibidi toilet is how much its been turned into cash cow, but that's not the issue 99% of people have with it lmao. And like, basically every kids trend is a cash cow nowadays.

mpjohnson.bsky.social•38 days ago

I mean the kids have already moved on from Skibidi Toilet. I've got an 11 year old son so for better or worse I know the high water mark was over a year ago and all the cashing in on it now feels way too late

cofactorstrudel.bsky.social•38 days ago

That's definitely not a nowadays thing I remember how mad Grumpy cat's owner got back in the day about all the unlicensed merch
