I played the very early single player Fortnite when I was messing around with unreal 4 back in the day. I thought “this is cool” and never played it again, and now it’s one of the biggest games in the world I never saw it coming.
That's the journey I went on. The phrae "skibidi toilet" started happening around me, and so I looked up what it was, and I understood it immediately. It's SFM Youtube poop. I was there 3000 years ago when that was invented, I remember nope.avi and pootis.
I find two things remarkable though: 1, SFM is still relevant after all these years and 2, they managed to wring a sci-fi story out of "stupid video about singing heads in toilets."
I got the fact that it's a SFM YouTube poop after I looked it up. I get why the kids like it and they keep making more. It's all very cozy and internet.
What I don't get is corpos trying to put skibidi toilet into things. I get why they're doing, child money. But like how do you integrate something as abstract and absurd into your own IP? But like in a way that kids will still think it's cool and not like dumb corpos trying to get on the bandwagon. Or maybe it's not working and we're just hearing about the attempts before they fail.
Internet is weird for people who only stick to message board type social media like lemmy and reddit, and avoid account focused social media like tiktok, Twitter, Instagram, threads, etc.
It’s an awesome war movie with action scenes that go beyond what triple AAA productions like 300 of mad max can deliver and it just keeps going episode after episode.
Seems like the best strategy don't you think? There are no real pros to pushing a pointless copyright claim and only negatives would come from doing so.
I, on the other hand, would like to happily inform everyone that I still don't know what this is beyond seeing those words together, and if I play my cards right, I might never!
Skibidi Toilet is a series of short form videos using assets from Garry's Mod and/or Source Film Maker. It features the camera heads (protagonists) fighting the toilet heads (antagonists). The toilets can be defeated by flushing the toilet. The series features an escalation of violence and weapons on both sides along with at least one additional faction joining.
It's actually pretty good. Like a lot of things the youth are into it's their obsession with it that's annoying moreso than the content.
How on earth is this confusing? Skibidi toilet is like one of the biggest memes right now. Fortnite has practically everyone and everything in it nowadays.
