Hey Ya sponge balls kind of kind of
getting it we're actually gonna have you
recreate some of these tik toks
yourselves so today we wanted to see how
familiar you are with some new tech
doctrine I have a hit or miss to talk
that went viral we have a twin tick tock
that went viral I will torture myself by
sitting through a couple hours of
content every now and again yeah it's
very interesting seeing the weird trends
considering I've been meaning to make a
video on I don't know what the hell tick
tock is I'm probably not gonna know any
of them we're actually gonna have you
recreate some of these tic TOCs
yourselves so Molly with you being
unable to see you may be used to this
but it's probably gonna be some comments
about why we're putting you in this tick
tock episode when many of the trends are
visual you make content all the time so
when it comes to trends how do you
approach them well when it comes to like
finding trends that are happening I need
other people to be like oh this is cool
and everybody's doing it I'm like oh
okay because I kind of just stay and
like mint a little a little bubble so as
we go we'll watch your reaction then
fill you in a little more on what we
showed you okay
so the first one that we have is one of
the new biggest dance trends from the
app right now that uses the song the get
up which is what the trend also goes by
okay the get up okay never heard of it
this I can't do the neck thing my
favorite
[Music]
this guy's aji this guy's got it kids
got it going I love him he's great he is
okay so I have seen like that walk boy
I've never attempted it I'm always
impressed by the dancing ones like I
always think that especially because I
have zero talent in that field so that
video showed tic toc use our Harvey bass
a young man in a uniform dancing down
the hallway to that song but that's cute
dancing is like one of the things that
makes me feel most self-conscious and
uncomfortable so I think it's really
cool that people are willing to like
have fun and get out there and do it I
seen this one that dude's got like the
chicken gyroscope had real down that is
an intensely pure is this would families
are doing up the reunions now
it definitely seems like the dad had
more practice than those dad goals right
there killed it that that's gonna be me
as dad if something exists there is a
spongebob oh yeah hey spongebob kind of
kind of getting it see this is what it's
made for a mascot at an amusement park
that's like the perfect application for
this remember when Squidward got in
trouble for dabbing that's what that
someone got fired for that spongebob
thing probably I could see why people
like are doing dances to this because it
really is hard no I don't I hate dancing
but it really is hard not to be like at
least nod your head to it
they don't have much time to teach you
the dance but we're gonna have you do
your best and recreate it from what you
just saw ready to try it yes I'm ready
this next part is my favorite part
I'm gonna do the to stay then catwalk
will be final do the to stay then cowboy
up with you driver sweetheart it's being
out wherever sweetheart it's being out
when do too
hold down and take it to this next part
is my favorite part
time to shop gonna do the to stay didn't
care what driver sweetheart it's being
out when dutiful
so before I move on to the next one we
wanted to talk about how huge tick tock
has become over the past couple years
with the app hitting over 1 billion
downloads globally earlier this year wow
that's crazy similarly to find some say
there's a lot of creativity and
innovation on the app with new trends
but there is also some crunchy content
that make people not like tick tock so
where do you stand on this I mean I
think anything can be cringing wherever
there's creativity there's gonna be
people who don't like what you do line
started at all that's where I came from
they changed the internet forever and
even vine had its garbage side but it
also had its incredibly creative and
talented side when tik-tok first became
a thing everyone took a [ __ ] on it but
then it sort of cycled back around and
became like vine where vine became fine
started out as cringy and now vine is
missed
rest in peace fine a lot of memes are
being buff don't tick tock right now
yeah it seems like it's the new it's a
new birthplace all the old all the old
standards that's where all the old
people are twitter is what facebook was
five years ago which is the second a
meme shows up there it's already dead
there's a whole Twitter page called like
tick tock ginger Solly
it's got cursed tick tocks oh that will
haunt your life I've never been so hard
in my life in any art form there's gonna
be the the better stuff in the end the
lesser stuff you know that's just normal
and you know you got to get through your
cringe face to get to your to your a
game I stand right in the middle I love
it cuz there's so many creative funny
people but then there's people and then
like I'll see like the comments saying
that's enough tick tock for me for today
so we're not 100% sure about this next
trend but it appears that the users are
trying to show different ways that
something can be done while also poking
fun of the different assumptions they
often get asked about generally
accompanied by a remix of Rihanna's pon
de replay okay I've seen this before I
think
like two bedrooms
okay ability
that's um yeah hashtag depression
content yeah oh there's a lot of that on
tik-tok - this looks like it has more
promise to me this one actually feels
like something of substance there you
have to actually think of something to
write and do so for this one a girl is
dancing while stereotypes pop up related
to what it's like having divorced
parents with positives like two bedrooms
two birthdays but also negatives like
emotional instability that's cool I kind
of like this one being a disabled woman
I face so many stereotypes and so many
misconceptions every day that I'm
constantly trying to like educate people
on and I'm always answering questions
and I feel like it would be like a fun
cute cool way to like break those down
[Music]
these kind of trends where where it's
you fit it into a certain format but the
format and the constraints actually
force you to be more creative again it
was a dance video but for this you don't
need that song for it to make sense but
everyone does it because it's almost
like well like a rule set but this is
just a it's just a meme but video I
think was something like that is why did
you make that content I think some
people just get real bored I made a lot
of things when I was locked at home and
had no money and as long as he was
entertained how do you recreate this
okay
[Music]
so this last tick tock trend is where
people pretend to be time travelers who
weren't others about the feature with
many people calling it the time traveler
challenge I love this one I've actually
seen this money
and this one a time-traveling girl
appears and asked what year it is finds
out its 119 and says she will be born
next year then says BYE MOM
meaning the girl she encountered is her
mom who then realizes that means she
will have a baby next year when she
realizes that the music changes to that
Jungle Book song and they put a face
filter to exaggerate her expression
she's gonna have a baby these are so
creative and clever and I feel like part
of the reason I never got into like vine
or musically you're not tik-tok is
because you have to fit so much
creativity into such a short period of
time and if you go to my channel my
videos are like 20 minutes wait what's a
turtle
[Music]
that one was harsh
wait it's a turtle the straw that's get
me every time it's fun tick tock love
talking about straws and how they're
ruining Turtles lives
[Music]
it's just the the filters the filters
are really making it that's gonna be
awesome yeah we're gonna be like so high
on tick-tock so humble brag not so
humble brat just a brag 1 million
followers hello you probably should she
went all out though with the makeup why
is it like one year in the internet now
is like 10 years in the real world and I
just can't keep up all right let's have
you recreate this one Oh God oh no okay
[Music]
now that you've seen some recent trends
and recreated some what are your
thoughts about the platform and people
on it that was hard that's tough
that was really hard yeah those are the
tick tock people man yeah it's not you
my content is so different to what tick
stalkers are doing creating storylines
in really unique ways and creative ways
in short form content I think it's super
cool and I I mean more power to them to
get an original spin on these people
must put a fair amount of time into it
it's not just something you look at a
camera and record an upload I think it's
hotter than we think I'm astounded that
mewn culture got here it was just
references it was all references but now
it's like actual creativity it's so
weird the last thing I would have
expected so finally do you think you
will add tik-tok to your career as an
online creator more over time yes yes
it's becoming you know more and more
cool I guess like you know it's it's
more acceptable to be a tick-tock I was
already like kind of lurkin so now
having you know finally made my own tick
first tick tocks I would be a little
more inclined to do so in the future but
still not quite there yet
no I don't think I'm gonna actually be
on tick-tock but maybe is this source of
satirical things maybe tuck talk maybe
too complicated for my old simple brain
there's a lot more work that goes into a
tick-tock I guess then I thought maybe
one day it is the new vine after all
there's so many platforms already that
year we have to worry about like Twitter
and Instagram YouTube
and then when it comes to like oh I have
an idea for tick-tock by the end of the
day I'm like really tired I don't have
daylight to film a funny one and I'm
like it's my least priority it's a it's
