I love how tiktuk is so stupid, people actually believe that this is a TREND, when in reality nobody even knows anyone did this (if its even real, which its probably not) this just reminded me of the “set yourself on fire challenge” which supposedly was VERY trend on tiktak. I asked my friends that use the dumpster and no one knew what I was saying.

I love how tiktuk is so stupid, you didn’t realize this was obvious satire

ehm, somewhere in my comment, that was exactly my point. Upon re-reading it however, I realize, I haven’t articulated myself very well.

There’s many different sides of tiktok, and there’s a chance that your friends just haven’t seen it (not saying it’s real).

For example, I’m sure they haven’t seen fur suit construction videos.

True, tiktok is amazingly good at creating bubbles. Once you’re classified you’ll never know there are other bubbles out there, there’s very little overlap.

Unless you click on one single video outside of your bubble, then that’s all you see

Apparently Tiktok has like 2 BILLION(!!) users. As crazy as that is, if even 0.01% of users is doing some dumb crazy thing, thats pptentially 200 000 kids injuring themselves or whatever when they wouldn’t otherwise. Its not a trend among the majority of users, but it is a trend that was spread by tiktok.

Isn’t it a Chinese company? They probably make up the majority of the demographic.

Well yeah but thats a lot of people globally. My point is just that something doesnt have to be widespread on tiktok for it to stull reach a significant amount of people.

Add “stabbing yourself in the face” to the ever-growing list of things people didn’t use to be so stupid they had to be warned not to do.

It’s political correctness gone mad.

You can’t do anything now. The liberals won’t even let you slit your own throat. It’s madness.

Nah, it’s just a legacy of British colonialism, it’s forbidden by the state to harm yourself in UK (half joking, because it really is a crime to harm yourself consensually)

If we don’t warn them, eventually we won’t need to warn them anymore.

Well, obviously you don’t start with 9mm. You start with .17 and work your way up to 22 short then 22lr and so on. If you jump straight to shooting yourself in the face with a 9mm of course you’re gonna get hurt.

I have unironucally heard a person state that a can plinking .22 round would not penetrate his skull at 100m.

It definitely will. I used to shoot all sorts of random shit out past 200m as a kid when we went to visit my grandparents who had a giant plot of land in the middle of nowhere. I have a very traumatic memory of my brother shooting a turtle he put up on a rock across the pond and watching it bleed out, so I am 100% sure it will both go that far and punch through bone.

It was a McDonald’s, the caller hacked into the security camera feed and called one of the managers (male) pretending to be law enforcement.

There was a movie about it called compliance.

True story. The video was making the rounds on the internet for a while.

I certainly hope this isn’t real. If it is, though, we’ve clearly held Darwinism at bay for far too long and maybe we should just start letting these things play out.
