It's basically the modern version of those old GMod videos. Even the humour is the same as 15 years ago.

The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. In one Age, called the Third Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a Skibidi Toilet Video was uploaded. Skibidi Toilet was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning.

I mean realistically, the people who enjoyed it back in the day have outgrown it. So "new" content like this skibidi business, which is the same kind of humor as they used to enjoy 10+ years ago, is deeply unappealing.

The channel that makes it has been around for 7 years making sfm stuff from the start, according to scrolling to the bottom of their videos

I was actually surprised when I finally watched it. It's got some absurd quality to it. It's not just plain dumb, but calculated dumb. It goes on for way too long if you let it, but I don't regret watching the first bunch.

Its a high effort, high quality shitpost and honestly a good example of storytelling without any dialogue or text, told completely through action.

I literally saw someone post on a social media site "What are your stereotypical Gen Z traits? I watch GMod videos on youtube!". It was literally a whole thing on golden age youtube

I think the biggest difference is that most of them are now made with Source Filmmaker. Same models, better video tools.

Watched skibidi since it was touted as the gen alpha meme and my first thought was "DasBooSchitt is back? Wtf?"
