What is skibidi and why is this word everywhere? [Serious]

MUSHROOM MUSHROOM

Charlie the Unicorn had a coherent plot and humor structure. It wasn't "lol random." Maybe you're thinking of Llamas in Hats.

Take that back. How dare you besmirch the good name of Charlie the Unicorn like that.

I always get an aneurysm whenever Enhancer for YouTube fails to hide shorts and I see all the fucking shorts spam on YT. It's horrible how much it ruined search results. I fucking hate what YT has become over the last decade especially.

I actually smiled and laughed when I first saw that it was a huge trend, considering all the gary's mod and SFM stuff, especially TF2 videos, I adored myself as a teen/young adult. Made me feel less old seeing that there's still life in the meme format.

Cat dog and Renn and Stimpy too. Silly comedy for the sake of being silly.

I will see your Charlie The Unicorn and raise you...

This.

Damn, skibidi ohio rizz has a much more devastating connotation than I expected

Damn, kids these days. Like, I knew that I shouldn't disregard slang as meaningless just because I don't understand it, but I'm realising how despite knowing this, I've probably been subconsciously dismissive. TIL, thank you.

I've never seen that association with my friends who use it. It's always been more of a meme word, a meaningless adjective you throw into a sentence to make it "funnier."

Source film maker. Kind of like Garry’s mod but specifically for making videos.

Source Filmmaker - basically the tech used in Valve's games (IE Half Life 2, Team Fortress 2, Gmod) but repurposed into an easy to use animation tool. Valve used it quite a bit for their content but it was also popular among amateur animators since it was easy to use and had bunch of ready-to-use resources from Valve's games.

Source film maker

It is a digital software that people can use to make digitally animated films. It utilizes a video game engine developed by Valve called Source.

So the Skibidi Toilets seem to operate on being able to hurt "people" via jump-scares. These "people" I refer to could be called "Tech Heads" (don't know if there is some skibidi-subculture which has consistent names for factions or characters).

The Tech Heads come in various flavors and keep upgrading their Heads to fight off the Skibidi Toilets.

The battles increasingly rely on both sides absurdly upgrading their arsenals in over-the-top and sometimes downright Cronenberg-esque ways. It makes heavy, heavy use of Half Life 2 GMod assets that are heavily modified to be these freaky creations.

The main endings of the shorts are either Skibidi's winning and serving you up a jump-scare before a blackscreen, or the various Tech Heads winning and giving each other a thumbs up gesture. Over time, even these concepts are lampooned or used as misdirects.

Further, there has honestly been clever use of the different type of Tech Heads for storytelling and meta-storytelling devices.

It ends up in an all-out war that includes deep subterfuge on both sides. I won't say it's not creative, it's actually incredibly creative and well-put-together.

I just wasn't able to find the humor in it, personally.

Source Film Maker, 3D animation software based on source engine which was used for games like Portal and Team Fortress 2.

I love the last paragraph.

I'll never forgive Covid for the Eurovision it took from us. Little Big was supposed to represent Russia in 2020

Probably since the author is russian (?) that's where they took it from. But it was interesting to learn that it's a common phrase for a range of artists.

So is EVERY generation.

Edit: apparently some people refuse to accept the concept of linear time. Seems a bit quixotic to me, but okay.

Try living in the shadow of boomers with no support. We were helpless (okokok; also apathetic). I for one am glad to have the backup of the following generations. Even if each successive generation is more inscrutable to me than the previous.

Waiting for those fuckers to retire? You bet.

Yup. They have every right to call the slang I grew up with asinine, too. In fact, it would be weird if they didn’t.

It kind of amazes me that a few words, like “cool”, have stood the test of time. They’re outliers, though.

Ha, true.

I'm the scat-man!

Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub

Hadn't thought about this in years but you mentioning it had my mind mainlining the song.

Sup. But I was referring specifically to this instance of it as these memes use that sound specifically from this song or remixes of it.

There was a now passed MC who was a prominent figure in 00s jungle called MC Skibadee.

The hate for skibidi toilet baffles me because it's literally the same shit we laughed at not even 20 years ago? Does nobody remember pingas and pootis? Fan flashes? It's crazy how fast people fall into "kids like it so it's bad"

Every generation just finds it's humor further and further up the anus of the internet

welcome to feeling old. (well. older.)
