  • I had a friend who was about 10 years younger than I am before we drifted apart. About 5 years ago, we were at the grocery store, and I couldn’t find it. And he said "Why would they carry some specialty BBQ sauce nobodys ever heard of before?

    It was one of those “Listen here ya little shit…” kind of moments.



  • Isn’t that TikTok? Content creators create some really interesting and cool content.

    And then Tiktok overlays unrelated fortnite footage while also putting giant cartoon bubble captions, but only 1 word at a time. Sometimes in an AI voice.

    And try as I might, I cannot endorse that style/formula. Call me a lame boomer, but that just steals other talented peoples work, and shits all over it with almost zero effort.

    Though as I type this, I realize this is Lemmy, and the majority of you probably won’t use Tiktok either for similar reasons, along with it not being open source.

    Though to be fair, I would still hate the tiktok culture if it had originated on loops.
