I watched it and it honestly is pretty cool, kinda catchy and funny and reminiscent of some steam orange box edit from 15 years ago

The youtube comments are full of ~20 year olds complaining about it though (probably mostly ironically but still)

Hello.

I am a zoomer who teaches alpha, and except for Bluey and Miraculous Ladybug, all of their touchstone media is stuff that was big before my time. They all up in Mario and Sonic and Frozen and that. When I was a kid, we had like iCarly and Codename Kids Nextdoor and Avatar. Now its like there’s nothing unifying for the kids to watch. Kinda sad.

This is sounding eerily similar to the Boomer-millennial-(and apparently possibly alpha) complex vs. the genX-zoomer complex

where each complex has vaguely similar behaviors/traits due to most of them being raised by the previous generation

It’s also very interesting that I (millennial) generally dislike zoomer stuff but skibidi seems pretty enjoyable to me (small sample size still but we’ll see)

Except its pretty sad because a lot of my students’ parents are around my age, some are literally my age and maybe a quarter are only 2-4 years older. I can’t imagine being ready for a baby in 2-4 years let alone having had one 2-4 years ago :(

I actually really like Skibidi. Really like how the toilets (poop, most essential and base humanity) are engaged in people’s war against the panopticon.

“YOLO,” said Millennials, and “yeet,” the Zoomers cried

“Rizzler gyatt fanum tax,” the Alphas then replied

And lo, there came a shaking as an ebon spire rose

Upon it writ the tongues of men, their generations’ prose

And from the sky a thund’rous voice called out unto the stone,

As golden letters glowed upon its surface, newly shown:

“RIZZLER GYATT FANUM TAX, SIGMA OHIO SKIBIDI”

And all beheld the words embossed theron in great timidity

With shaking and with wavering voice, the grim refrain began

As all the generations sang the verse at its command

Their weeping and their running sores did nothing to delay

The chanting of that fevered song as night succumbed to day

But rose that morn a blighted sun whose light scoured like a flood

The sky was rent asunder and the rivers turned to blood

Their flesh peeled off in sickly strips, their bones were rendered bare

And still they chanted ever on, the words they uttered there

Until bone and flesh and earth and death were all forgotten things

And still unbidden, undesired, the blackened spire sings

Around it wind the whispers of the souls in its captivity:

“rizzler gyatt fanum tax… sigma ohio skibidi”
