With equal parts confusion and shame, I regret to inform you that Skibidi Toilet is coming to Fortnite (www.pcgamer.com)

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?

It's all because of that damn song sample!

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.

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I have watched Skibidi Toilet - Season 1 [FULL SCREEN] my main thoughts are "cool use of source engine", I then watched a random one and at least it has different content so i'll watch some more of it later.

For me the initial clip is a bit meh, but the world building of the random episode looks interesting.

[–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 days ago

The lack of any dialogue kinda makes me feel like I have to pay attention otherwise I'd have no clue what's going on.

Yeah I initially wrote it off as absurdist source engine 2010 yup engineer videos. But there's quite a bit more nuance than that.

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