Around them a lot for my job, I want to understand what they’re getting at lol.
I tried to watch a skibidi toilet video and I was just lost. Kids these days seem very postmodern haha

I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary. It’ll happen to you!”

To this I will only add that I have found that to say the words Skibidi or Skibidi Toilet to your own teenagers at home is to have possession of words of immense power to vanquish and appall. It is like waving a crucifix at a vampire, such is the awesome power of the cringing retreat. 🙂
Explain like I’m five? This is Phd level
It’s banana phone, or badger badger, or drinking out of cups, basically. We were also pretty post modern.
I am 42 and don’t understand what’s happening. I want my blanket. Where’s my cocoa? You’re not the nice nurse they had yesterday. My feet are cold.
Skibidi toilet is just referencing the video series. It was popular, a lot of older people didn’t understand it, bringing more attention to it, which made it more popular and cool to reference since it confuses older people, which only brings more attention etc etc etc. When people say skibidi toilet randomly or with nonsensical phrases, it doesn’t mean anything really, it’s just a cool thing to say to confuse older people.

My 15yr old daughter was showing me some documentaries yesterday. She had to sit with me and explain the terms but after 20 mins my head was going to explode! It’s like a different language!
I’m 37 and it’s the same stupid bullshit we used to do as kids. They’re no different than we were, they just aren’t consuming the same media we did for obvious reasons.
My kids (6 yo and 9 yo) absolutely love it, especially my 6 yo. To them it’s just an absurd form of toilet humor. This is similar to how kids like to make poo and pee jokes at toddler age: they know you’re not supposed to talk about that, so jokes about that subject become irresistible. It’s a way of exploring boundaries.
u/Lowfat_cheese did a great explanation of the history of this meme, but my kids are not aware of that.
