TikTok.
ADHD in app form.
Kids these days use it for everything,
from making jokes to sharing stories,
and now even political activism.
But now a new viral TikTok has some people wondering
if there should be a limit.
How much is social media a part of some kids' lives?
Well, in the case of the teenagers you're about to meet,
the answer would seem to be, it's essential.
They were involved in a car crash,
and almost immediately posted a video
on the popular app TikTok.
TV REPORTER: Believe it or not, these teens
are recording the aftermath of a bad car accident
that happened only moments earlier.
You can see the cracked windshield,
and then they got camera ready,
making a video that they posted on the popular TikTok app,
lip-syncing while waiting for police.
What this shows is where young people have their priority.
-Yes. -That they thought it was more of a priority
to make a video.
Okay, I'm just gonna say this straight up.
This is how you know you don't have immigrant parents.
(laughter)
Because if you crash your parent's car
and your parent is an immigrant,
forget making a TikTok, you'll be writing your will.
Like, immigrant parents are the only ones who would show up
to that crash and be like, "Did my son survive?"
Be like, "Luckily, he's fine."
"Unluckily, he's fine, huh?"
But, I mean, I guess this is just what kids
in the social media generation do.
Like, there's no situation
that they don't think of turning into viral content.
Like, if the movie Taken came out now,
Liam Neeson's daughter would probably
be making a TikTok under that bed.
Yeah. She'd be like, ♪ You had a bad day ♪
♪ You had a bad day ♪
♪ It's going real bad. ♪
(laughter)
All right, speaking of car wrecks,
the Trump administration.
Every day it feels like President Trump says something
that causes outrage.
He's called countries in Africa shit holes.
He's declared that he's in love with Kim Jong-un.
And last week, he said he was way cuter than Baby Yoda,
which is insane.
But sometimes it's easy to forget
that while Trump is loudly offending people,
his administration is quietly affecting people.
Nearly 700,000 Americans are now in jeopardy
of losing their food stamp benefits
under a new Trump administration regulation.
The new regulation makes it more difficult for states
to waive a requirement
that able-bodied adults without children
work at least 20 hours per week.
It's part of the Trump administration's efforts
to cut the supplemental nutrition program,
otherwise knows as SNAP.
The administration says the new rule aims
to encourage those receiving SNAP to get a job.
Okay, this is just horrible, man.
You're gonna cut food stamps to people, and you're saying
it's because you want to inspire them to get jobs?
Like, that's only going to make it harder to get a job.
How are you supposed to make a good impression
at an interview if you're hungry? Huh?
The person's gonna be like,
"So, uh, why do you want this job?"
"Uh, because I need to eat, bitch."
(laughter)
And, also, to do this during the holidays,
you know, like, that is so heartless from Trump.
Sometimes I think Trump's worldview
is twisted to everyone else.
Like, I bet when Trump watched 101 Dalmatians,
it was a sad movie about a woman who couldn't get a coat.
And you know what I also find interesting,
honestly, what I find interesting,
is that you always have politicians
who take services away from poor people
because they claim it will inspire them to become better.
But then when it comes to big corporations,
all of a sudden their attitude changes to,
"We have to help out these oil companies and these farmers.
They need our support."
And you're like, well, what about poor people?
"Yeah, I guess we could give poor people
to the oil companies. Let's try. Yeah, we could try it.
Right, and finally, if this news
has you worried about losing your food stamps
and you just want to stock up in case,
well, there's a new food that will keep for a while.
A new type of apple is hitting supermarkets this week,
and if you buy some, they might still be good
for next year's holiday apple pie.
The Cosmic Crisp reportedly could keep
for more than a year in storage.
The apple is a cross between the Enterprise
and Honeycrisp apples,
and it apparently gives them a higher shelf life
while still holding their naturally sweet flavor,
and they are resistant to browning.
Okay, what?
They invented a new apple
that can last for a year?
Why do we even need new apples?
There are already too many apples, okay?
We got so many apples out there,
we need white people to pick them.
That's too many.
(laughter and applause)
We don't need fancy new apples that don't go bad.
You know what we need? We need fancy new oranges
that know how to peel themselves.
That's what they need to invent.
Yeah, 'cause the ones we have now,
by the time you're done peeling them,
your fingers look like you strangled Ernie to death.
(laughter)
And an orange isn't even that great as a fruit.
I mean, half of it is just that white stuff
you're trying not to eat.
You know how I know oranges are shit?
They're named orange. It's just a color. Yeah.
Someone took a bite, and they were like,
"You don't deserve an identity."
So we don't need new apples. We need new oranges.
And, yeah, that's right. I just compared apples and oranges.
Everybody said it couldn't be done,
but I just did it.
