Before we criticize the zoomers let’s remember all the gmod slop we consumed as teenagers
Who knows the connection between badgers, mushrooms, and snakes?
zoomers
Hey pal, don’t blame us for this shit, most of us are in our twenties
Hey pal, I’m also in my 20s and skibidi toilet is at least mildly entertaining.
It’s actually really good! It’s a classic case of things getting popular and cringe fans. Undertale is another big example of this, at least the first few years it was out. I guess Minecraft too, at times.
I’m almost twice as old as you and I thought the first one was funny.
That’s the journey I went on. The phrae “skibidi toilet” started happening around me, and so I looked up what it was, and I understood it immediately. It’s SFM Youtube poop. I was there 3000 years ago when that was invented, I remember nope.avi and pootis.
I find two things remarkable though: 1, SFM is still relevant after all these years and 2, they managed to wring a sci-fi story out of “stupid video about singing heads in toilets.”
2, they managed to wring a sci-fi story out of “stupid video about singing heads in toilets.”
It’s unironically one of my favorite examples of “show don’t tell” storytelling.
I keep thinking of Abe Simpson’s line about “I used to be with it, then they changed what it was.” It’s not weird and scary yet, but there’s a “huh, that’s different” factor.
I got the fact that it’s a SFM YouTube poop after I looked it up. I get why the kids like it and they keep making more. It’s all very cozy and internet.
What I don’t get is corpos trying to put skibidi toilet into things. I get why they’re doing, child money. But like how do you integrate something as abstract and absurd into your own IP? But like in a way that kids will still think it’s cool and not like dumb corpos trying to get on the bandwagon. Or maybe it’s not working and we’re just hearing about the attempts before they fail.
I find it interesting that Gmod almost touching 20 yrs and sfm still relevant to this day, there is always that guy who animates memes on sfm.
CoreyLaddo on YouTube. He’s a true SFM animator and a damn good one.
I’m sure without context ytmnd.com seems insane.
And also with context.
Can’t argue with that.
Badger badger badger. Explain that shit to a boomer
I was going to mention ytmnd. Thank you.
Even with context. The whole site was dedicated to hosting brainrot before brainrot was even a word.
If I can go back to any of that and not be deeply mystified by our collective insanity, we weren’t trying hard enough
Speak for yourself. The only mod slop i consumed was Tribes and Unreal Tournament
Speak up please I can’t hear you over your creaking hips
We had salad fingers
I find it funny news. I don’t get why so much people hate it like their personality depends on it
It’s filled w/ MTX that preys on young people’s sense of FOMO.
Oh, you’re talking about Skibidi Toilet? Yeah, I really don’t care one way or another about that.
I don’t hate Fortnite in and of itself, but I do really hate how because of its success, damn near all multiplayer FPS games have become some kind of Fortnite knock-off battle royale.
I mean atleast recently there haven’t been a lot of new battle Royale games. I haven’t seen a new big battle Royale game in a while, at most you get shooter games having a battle Royale game mode on top of the normal game modes they have.
Because it reminds them that they are an old now.
No, it’s the children who are wrong.
People are just tired of brain rot in general
And yet we all fiended for a new reddit. Sometimes rot is good, it makes alcohol after all.
Rot is an essential part of our digestive process, assuming rot just means biological processes converting food from one state to a generally less appetizing state.
I just wonder if Valve is getting paid for its assets.
I, on the other hand, would like to happily inform everyone that I still don’t know what this is beyond seeing those words together, and if I play my cards right, I might never!
Skibidi Toilet is a series of short form videos using assets from Garry’s Mod and/or Source Film Maker. It features the camera heads (protagonists) fighting the toilet heads (antagonists). The toilets can be defeated by flushing the toilet. The series features an escalation of violence and weapons on both sides along with at least one additional faction joining.
It’s actually pretty good. Like a lot of things the youth are into it’s their obsession with it that’s annoying moreso than the content.
I asked a seven-year-old girl why he’s in the toilet. The answer - he fell in. You’re welcome.
Thank her for me
WOOOOOOOO!!! (i don’t watch skibidi toilet and have never played fortnite)
We’re back boys (somewhere I’ve never been and will never go)
Tim cooked (it’s poisoned)
I played the very early single player Fortnite when I was messing around with unreal 4 back in the day. I thought “this is cool” and never played it again, and now it’s one of the biggest games in the world I never saw it coming.
Because the single player fortnite was completely disappeared after they fully pivoted to making it a cartoon PUBG.
It’s still top 20 by player count, despite being the only paid game mode and getting like 2 updates a year with some QOL and bugs every update
I was wondering what you meant by Top 20 until I checked their website. I thought it was just still BR with some variations. It’s basically Roblox now.
I used this third party website tho. As it displays player count graphs and other things for each “”“experience”“”.
Internet is weird for people who only stick to message board type social media like lemmy and reddit, and avoid account focused social media like tiktok, Twitter, Instagram, threads, etc.
One could argue that this is the weird part of the internet now since we are the minority
We are like the BBS, IRC, and Usenet users of the late 2000s who refused to be swayed by Digg, Reddit, and (SMS only) Twitter.
I’m more surprised that it wasn’t already there.
It would be easier to count the character skins that are NOT in Fortnite.
We got skibidi toilet fortnite before GTA 6.
Please tell me this also comes with a new map set in Ohio.
ST is a Govt psyop designed to distract, debase, and demoralize the youth
Similar target audiences right? I’m ok with this, I’m glad that kids have games to look forward to like when I was young. Just because ST isn’t for me doesn’t mean I can’t be happy for the people who will be happy with this.
This video from tale foundry touches on this.
Let kids be kids, and enjoy their lore like we did when we were young. It’s just getting wierd because people can cash in on it easily.

Yep, I remember the old South Park episode about “Internet Dollars” something like 15 years old, and suddenly, people are figuring out how to do just that.
Really interesting video thanks for sharing.
Valve has been rather quiet about the use of male_07 by Dafuq.
Seems like the best strategy don’t you think? There are no real pros to pushing a pointless copyright claim and only negatives would come from doing so.
Yeah they have everything, that’s the idea.
