First time I saw Skibidi Toilet I didn’t have the context of it being popular with kids so I assumed it was just regular shitpost and it made me laugh
I have no idea how people who enjoyed 2016-2020 meme culture reacted so negatively to it
I think edgelord Newgrounds humor, where the entire joke was “something gory happens,” were worse anyway.
Happy Tree Friends, if you want a specific example.
The problem with happy tree friends is it was the same joke every single time. Like ok yeah, the juxtaposition is amusing but that’s literally it
No one I personally knew that was continually entertained by Happy Tree Friends beyond maybe a single one-off shock humor gimmick wound up being a good person later in life.
Ha ha is so funny they kill Kenny in every episode lmaoo
South Park contaminated generations of viewers. I had just about given up trying to socialize offline with people my age back in CA because so many never fucking cleared out the irony poisoning there.
Holy shit Happy Tree Friends… I remember being a kid and all my friends who had older brothers or cousins talking about it and I was like ->
It was not a good time seeing one of those videos, awkwardly laughing at the shock value of it once then getting pressured into watching more and more of pretty much the exact same shock value gimmick over and over and over and over again. Any attempt for me to back out or just do something else was “WHY ARE YOU SO SENSITIVE? WHERE IS YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR?!”
Stickdeath and its seemless transition from slightly mask on racism to fully mask off racism after 9/11
Possibly because the generation who appreciated that eras meme culture are growing older and are no longer the rebellious youth. Dipping their toes into the boomer pool, so to speak.
Yeah the millenial reaction to Skibidi Toilet is their test for if they will Become Boomer or not.
I like Skibidi shenanigans a lot more than my own generation’s “Happy Tree Friends” era of edgy humor.
Oh god Happy Tree Friends was RANCID.
I’m glad we agree there. If there was ever a cartoon portrayal of the idea of “cruelty is the point,” it was Happy Tree Friends.
There’s some good stuff from that generation too though admittedly. Homestar Runner was at its peak around the same time.
You’re right.
I have a deep, deep sentimental fondness for all things Homestar Runner.
I hated it too.
I’m getting some weird memory that could be completely wrong but I believe my sister was showing me these and excitedly said “this is banned in Cuba!” I was always disgusted by it despite liking “edgy” humor like idk aqua team or whatever and if Cuba banned it, good, though I’m struggling to imagine why that would happen beyond there being poor internet access or just blocking American IPs
I have a soft spot for happy tree friends, I didn’t have internet back then and people shared weird shit on CDs. That was my first contact with edgy humor like that
I guess Beavis and Butt-head was my equivalent guilty pleasure. Irreverent nearly to the point of nihilism, but there it was in my teenage years, because I was a dumbass.
Oh how the turns are tabling, or some shit. I have become boomer.

Same, and I just thought it was the one video, but now after this post was made I’ve come to learn there is like hours worth of skibidi toilet videos and I’m blown away. This is no worse than rooster teeth red vs blue, arby n cheef, ytp, or any of the abridged series but as short form video. The kids are alright.
skibidi toilet was more like 2005-2010 meme culture imo, it was exactly like all the shitty “idiots of gmod” shitposts, just ramped up to 11. I really didn’t get the negative reaction from all the “adults” considering I was laughing at the exact same type of shit when I was 13. I’m in my thirties now
yup, spiritually millennial
funnier than 90% of zoomer memes no offensePretty much
The people who were laughing at the Doctor Hax stuff in the late 2000’s are now saying ‘this is too far, sir’
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
People who trash Skibidi Toilet simply don’t remember what it was like to be a kid

Before my generation there was Mad Magazine humor, which was roughly in the same direction.
I actually loved Mad Magazine as a kid. Got into it watching the Cartoon Network show and a relative happened to have a bunch of old mad magazines and a Sega Genesis from when he was a kid. Had a blast playing Sonic and reading Mad Magazine
It’s not exactly like Skibidi, but it’s similar vibes in places, I think.
Some people here might assume that I’m a cantankerous old man.
I mean, I am, but even so, considering how long I taught teenagers, there was no way I didn’t absorb some of the Ohio skibidi rizz.
It was fine, even funny to me. If I wanted to dispel it to get the class back on track, all I had to do was recite it back to them and instantly make it cringe.
I’ve literally essentially said this on this site, lmao
I mean skibidi toilet is a gmod vid no?
It’s source filmmaker, I think. Same thing used to make the “Meet the Whoever” TF2 videos
Promised me flying cars and instead delivered skibidi toilet.
A hundred 9/11s after every bar closes for the night!

Is it still a meme if Michael Bay is making a movie about it
Skibidi is in danger of losing a lot of rizz, no cap, with that kiddie-creeping boomer fuck getting his stank all over it.
I still maintain that skibidi toilet is very obvious something came up by a zoomer and that it doesn’t really resemble stuff that millennials liked back in the day. The fact that it has a plot and an overarching theme while being dystopian already distances itself from lol randumb XD humor.
I think what’s happening is that the creator might be a zoomer, but the target audience is gen alpha. It’s like how a lot of early Newgrounds stuff were created by gen x but consumed by millennials. The first by-millennials-for-millennials creations were ytp which were created by millennials who were exposed to older Newgrounds stuff.
It’s extra cringe for a zoomer to shit on skibidi toilet because it’s very much a product of zoomer meme culture.

That’s part of why I like it over lolrandom and especially “lol gore is funny” millennial counterparts from the past. The way it develops and expands and escalates that struggle with the Camera Men is fascinating to me.

I’m 34 and i don’t
It’s fine if you do or you don’t we’re all still comrades
im an 80s baby and i don’t get it either but whatever
Skibidi toilet makes more sense than 95% of SFMs from back in the day. Like there’s an ongoing storyline and everything. People who hate on it but watched other sfm/ytp nonsense back in the day just have boomer ass mindsets
Making fun of skibidi toilet is liberalism
No wonder this place is constantly complaining about be lonely and having no gyatt rizz 😔
I’m roughly the same age and don’t feel the need to or desire ti understand. A lot of youth culture is about being inscrutable and distinct from older people culture, and that’s fine. Let kids have their fun
