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)
Wait what? Zoomers hate skibidi toilet? I thought zoomers were the reason skibidi toilet was a thing
Gen alpha is the reason skibidi toilet was a thing, zoomers “hate” it ironically because it’s not really any different than 2016 cod trickshot edits
Doesn’t matter, all you need to know is no generation is more cringe than millennials
Yeah, I like how “Boomers” is basically anyone born between 1900 and 1985, then it’s seemingly a new “generation” every 5 years after that.
Zoomers are now in their “I’m like 20 now and I feel like I’m ancient” phase where they have to ironically hate on the new Gen saying boomer shit like “kids these days aren’t as good as we were”
I refuse to accept “gen alpha”. If Gen z is late 90s to 2000s, shouldn’t “Gen alpha” be in like fifth grade at most? Do they even count as a distinct generation yet? Are we gonna get Gen Beta in like two years?
It’s such an arbitrary and contrarian concept, just scrap the idea of namwd “generations” altogether.
The youngest millennials are like 26 (1997 is the cutoff per the idiots who came up with it). People are really jumping the gun, as the youngest gen z is like 10 years old.
Seriously I’m 30 how are there 2 generations with distinct media tastes fighting already behind me.
Isn’t gen alpha like 6 at this point how do they even have something for zoomers to hate.
Skibidi is pog ong frfr
Oh shit, it finally happened… I can’t understand the internet anymore. Time to go see if I can start investing in a timeshare for a casket.
I think some of it is self reflexive cringe. We know it’s just like the stuff we were laughing at a couple of years ago, and it’s painful to think that we weren’t always as enlightened as to understand that Obama impressions and the Adam Friedland show are the highest form of humor.
I won’t claim someone as a zoomer if they don’t like skibidi. Shame upon them
crapping on the Latest Thing Kids Are Doing is one of the early phases of transitioning into an out of touch adult.
every new group thinks they’re gonna be young and connected to youth culture forever. when they run into the first thing from younger people they don’t get, they feel compelled to explain why “it sucks actually” rather than letting go of their youth status.
Always thought this was a goofy ass compulsion, just let the kids enjoy things?
They’re right in that the things kids enjoy usually do suck, but wrong in thinking that doesn’t apply to the stuff they liked when they were kids
personally i don’t feel like i’ve ever been in touch with ‘youth culture’. even when i was very young i always felt like i never understood what other kids were talking about, and this feeling of alienation from ‘the zeitgeist’ has persisted into my 30s. like, when i was a kid i liked ninjas and mecha. now that i’m 30 i like ninjas and mecha and communism. but i never liked the name brand IP stuff, Gundam is mid mostly (i especially disliked gundam wing, which was the hot shit when i was a pre-teen), and like 7/10 at its best (gundam IBO, haven’t yet seen witch from mercury but i hear good things). transformers is and always was poorly concieved garbage. power rangers were silly but normal IP-less anonymized ninjas were cool. naruto and DBZ were too impractical, even when i was like 6 i didn’t like their tacky orange outfits. i liked pokemon (or more accurately i thought pikachu specifically was cute) for like one year and got bored of it while the rest of the world went wild about it. and i never liked any music anyone else had ever heard of. i think assuming that these criticisms are always and necessarily just out of touch adults complaining about what they don’t understand is too simplistic, because ‘out-of-touch-edness’ is not confined to the old and the very concept might be kinda ableist towards the neurodivergent depending on the definition and related assumptions.

Does this mean zoomers are becoming out-of-touch-geezers at the seasoned age of ~21 years old?
I remember being 21, back in the early 2010s, I was never even thinking about what younger kids were doing, nobody was.
