have you actually tried watching? I keep seeing complaints from people who never gave it a chance just because it looked weird

I’ve seen a number of people who I know for a fact enjoyed Salad Fingers 20 years ago just unthinkingly dunking on skibidi toilet

Isn’t it absurdist horror?

These kids seem way more into horror than I’ve ever seen. I was really surprised to hear how my cousin’s kids adored a freaky one called Poppy Playtime.

Nah, it’s a constantly intensifying war between alien invaders (the toilet people) and a resistance group of electronics-based people.

Absurd as hell as a concept, but dude somehow makes it engaging?

The first 2 episodes are before the narrative starts.

Right the meme is well aged and starting to smell a bit funky, it’s time for the geezers to look at it. 👴

I’ll give it a watch.

That’s the spirit I thought it was weird until I dated a teacher and we watched like ten episodes and I was like yeah ok it’s good.

It looks like something I would have mildly chuckled at when I was 12.

How is different from Crazy Frog or Billy Bass? Dumb memes turning into toys or dumb meme toys have been around for forever.

I must have been spared from the other meme toys, this one I noticed.

Yes. How can those things also be popular?

Absurdist humour will always have fans

It should be studied in film classes as a perfect example of non narrative based storytelling.
