I wish I could shit post hard enough to get the Russian government involved.
- You got a whole year. Start with a vk account
- Everyone has it in them to shitpost so hard the Russian government gets involved, you just gotta try.
Yeah, fair enough.
- Is it though? I feel like us millennials aren't any better for watching shit like Charlie the unicorn, annoying orange, salad fingers, jackass, and other disturbing or brainless content.
  Not saying skibidi toilet is a great show for kids, just saying that we weren't any better and I feel like we are encroaching on boomerism when we gatekeep kids these days for watching almost the same trash we did as kids.
  
  I love it. Its like the videos my friends and I would watch on Newgrounds and early Youtube.
  Let kids like weird stupid stuff.
  
  skibidi toilet is even less straightfoward than those ahows because the characters dont functionally communicate, so its lore is basically what the user thinks it is, rather than it directly telling you, as the obly words said is basically the repeated line skibidi toilets say.
  
  Tbh. The comment that I made wasn’t really serious and was made in jest.
Skibidi Toilet is a mirror of ongoing war between meme culture vs mainstream culture, new vs legacy, degenerate vs pure. russia is just getting in on the action.
Is this actually world news? I guess the community can decide.
Ok puta.
