The bizarre 'Skibidi Toilet' meme explained
The internet is full of weird and wonderful trends and memes, but one of the strangest by far is the Skibidi Toilet meme that has taken over social media platforms. If you’ve heard of Skibidi Toilet recently, chances are it was on TikTok or X/Twitter but many people may not know that the phenomenon started on YouTube. Skibidi Toilet is a meme based on a bizarre animated YouTube series with 59 episodes all about singing and dancing disembodied heads lurking in toilets. The series shows how the Skibidi Toilets have conflict between themselves and the so-called “Cameramen” – other people with CCTV on their heads, who are killed by the Skibidi Toilets. The YouTube show was created by user “DaFuq!?Boom!” and has over 27.2 million YouTube subscribers and some Skibidi Toilet episodes have upwards of 63 million views. The show is animated by Alexey Gerasimov, an animator based in Georgia. Since posting the first episode in February this year, the series has rapidly taken off. Its popularity seems to have got Gen Zers worried that they are getting old, as Gen Alpha is coming up with its own memes that they don’t understand. Gen Alpha, those born between the early 2010s and mid-2020s, are the next generation on from Gen Z (1997 – 2012) and are now becoming tweeners that have their own interests and online identity. Some have compared Skibidi Toilet to Gen Alpha’s Slender Man – a scary character that was popular among online youth in 2009. The emergence of Skibidi Toilet has left some Gen Z-ers realising that soon they will be facing the same mocking and ridicule they dished out to Millennials. On X/Twitter, someone wrote: “I just overheard my sister talking about how Gen Z is old and stupid and how they don't get their jokes, hello I am right here I am only 15 (she was born in 2013) “Then she asked me if I knew what a Skibidi Toilet was please help me what the f**k is a Skibidi Toilet I feel old.” For those who are extreme fans of Skibidi Toilet, a new phrase called Skibidi Toilet Syndrome has been coined as the diagnosis for people who can’t stop watching and consuming content based on the animated show.

Psychology test can reveal your true personality in just four questions
A psychological test can reveal your personality in just four short questions, and its even captured the attention of celebrities. Tests that reveal what our truest version of ourselves is are always eye-opening and with four questions posted on TikTok by Made In Chelsea star and entrepreneur Jamie Laing, you can do just that. Laing said: “For each answer you give, you have to give two adjectives as to why you've given that answer.” He continued, explaining first you have to say what your favourite animal is. Next, you have to provide two adjectives to describe your favourite animal and why it’s your favourite, for example, a lion because it’s strong and clever. According to Laing, this is “how you describe yourself”. The next question is, “What is your favourite food?”, again giving two adjectives to explain why – for example, Thai food because it’s spicy and zingy. This is how you view your partner. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter @jamielaing Personality test in 4 simple questions #jamielaing #foryou Thirdly, the test asks “What's your favourite colour?”, along with two adjectives. According to the personality test, this is how other people view you. The final question asks, “What's your favourite type of water?”. Laing gave the examples of “river, sea, swimming pool”, before revealing “that is your sex life”. In the comments, people gave their answers and some of them were hilarious. One person wrote: “Me saying panda for the first one cause it's fat and lazy. Guess that's me.” Someone else added: “Not me saying Pad Thai as my favourite food as it’s tasty and has nuts.” “Fav food: pasta because it’s creamy and filling,” another wrote along with some laughing face and embarrassed face emojis. Others who took the quiz realised they may need to dust off the old school books. Someone admitted: “My answers were bizarre. Think I need to re-learn what an adjective is.” Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.
