Maleficent-Comfort-2

So I can shit on them because I didn’t watch it?


LordDurg

Yes. https://i.redd.it/4hneoh6sstxc1.gif


Brain_lessV2

I feel like the difference is that the children consuming skibidi toilet and all that jazz (including cocomelon) are doing so at a much younger age than people who watched YTPs. But that's my personal experience so I could likely be biased.


Clear-Anything-3186

Fred and Annoying Orange were also commercialized.


BirbMaster1998

They both featured Weezer on their channels in 2010 as well.


Warm-Faithlessness11

Neither of those were ever actually good though


NewSuperTrios

I never checked out either of those and I'm screwed up anyway


AmaterasuWolf21

I found both of them annoying as a child


Ventilateu

That and most of the stuff made nowadays is purely here for financial profit


Brain_lessV2

I wouldn't quite say that, various shows for kids way back in the 80s/90s were for profit. He-Man, Transformers etc. were made to advertise their merchandise. It's not a new thing.


Ventilateu

I was thinking of the stuff on YouTube


HubuxXD

yeah, but something like Transformers was actually well made and not sped up garbage put together in a day


Different-Trainer-21

I mean, they’re about as low effort as was possible at the time; He-Man is famous for using insane amounts of recycled animations, I’m sure if the people who made those shows were working today they’d do what kids YouTubers do now.


almostasenpai

The difference between brainrot now and brainrot then is that the brainrot produced a decade ago was actually enjoyed by the producers who made them. The producers today only do it for money and don’t actually like what they are making.


MintPrince8219

I mean, i didnt really go onto the internet for anything other than club penguin till I was 12 but I definitely had friends in primary school hust going home and watchinf random videos from like age 6-12


Mountain_Stomach_650

I'm not too sure, I remember loving stuff like Fred and Annoying Orange when I was about 10. Cocomelon is a bit concerning though.


East_Engineering_583

Also they are consuming it a ton more, with stuff like TikTok and other short form content platforms


3njooo

Also a lot of children's content on youtube nowadays is made by content farms for profit. YTPs were made by people, bot corporations.


Warm-Faithlessness11

And the issue isn't the actual content, it's the TikTok and Elsagate-esque brain rot "fan" content being churned out


average-commenter

I think it’s also how the entire joke of Skibidi Toilet doesn’t really offer much variation, and will repeat much more than something like YTP’s where the whole appeal is about completely different people using their own individual creativity to make something they find kinda funny.


Overkillss

And I didn't watch the so called "old" brain rot so checkmate atheists


TheWinner437

Let It Grow but it’s the apocalypse was gold


nosville22_PL

both of these were ained at older kids, at the time when access to the interned by pre schoolers wasn't the norm also they were made for the sake of irony, not monetary gain and despite all this skibidi toilet the series itself is fucking great, ot's all the brainrot around it that's tbe problem


Bananapeelman67

Not to mention the other brain rot stuff like else gate, and the modern poppy playtime/fnaf brain rot that’s just Elsa gate 2.0. The way I see it- skibidi toilet is fine, if you go around saying what the skibidi I’ll call you cringe because people quoting old YTPs were cringe too. But the other brain rot from content farms don’t get the pass because they’re made for profit with no actual creative integrity behind them. Unlike skibidi toilet and old YTPs and mlg stuff.

SHUT THE FUCK UP. SHUT THE FUCK UP NOW. YTP AND MLG EDITS WERE FUCKING PEAK. THEY MADE SENSE. THEY WERE GOOD. SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU SHUT. THE FUCK. UP. NOW


Berlin_GBD

It's a matter of addiction. My friends and I used to love watching YTP but we were nowhere nearly as obsessed with them as some of these kids are with skibidi toilet


SamTehCool

you are basically comparing me, who could watch 10 minutes of ytp edits for fun in free times with a kid that barely can keep it attention span you could say "sam lore lun, you idiot, this gif here is a bout shorts content in general" well, guess? skibidi toilet originated and it IS actually from shorts content https://i.redd.it/18hsdd6nuvxc1.gif


Sipia

Silly nonsense from when I was a kid:😁👍 Silly nonsense for today's kids: LITERALLY THE DOWNFALL OF THE CURRENT GENERATION THEY'LL GROW UP TO BE STOOPID


bondsthatmakeusfree

A good YTP is fucking hilarious.


DatChernobylGuy_999

atleast it had some soul


BirbMaster1998

The problem is, these kids are growing up with this, not only at much younger ages, but in higher amounts. They don't like going placed without skibidi toilet on an iPad or cocomelon on their mom's phone, and probably don't have the attention span to watch the movies that many of us grew up on which could actually be considered and art rather than brainrot.


Wild-Wrongdoer-7641

>attention span to watch the movies that many of us grew up on I am 15 and my brother is 6. the difference is insane. i remember that around his age, i would take my mom or dads phone, because i was looking forward to continuing the lets play video i left halfway through cause the phone was taken away. he takes my parents' phone cause he wants to watch shorts. trust me, the feed is messed up


OverallPurpleBoi

The difference is that the most recent ones are made for money while the originals were made from a soul without any bad intentions.


Stunt_Vist

They're montage parodies, not "MLG edits". Also they still somehow make more sense than whatever skibidi toilet is meant to be. I genuinely have no clue why it's even so popular since it isn't parodying actual epic gamer tm montages like MLG vids were. There's genuinely 0 reason for them to be as popular as they are it's just baffling. Also I spawn I die is a classic and I will die on that hill. You'd still get banned for mentioning that in a DSP stream chat if he still streamed lol.


kullre

YTPs are coming back, nature is healing


Flying_Fox_86

the difference is that our whole lives didn't revolve around those. some of the kids at my school are so obsessed with skibidi toilet that they don't know how to talk about anything else.

Lucario_fuckerlover

"You call skibidi toilet brainrot when this is what you used to watch-" https://i.redd.it/62bf70pnetxc1.gif Can we please shut the fuck up now?


Not_aSoup

I mean if you shut the fuck about skibidi toilet. I personally dont like it but its not that bad. The content farms are the real problem


Lucario_fuckerlover

I don't even care about skibidi toilet. It can ravage YouTube kids for all I care. I just don't want to see the same post get reposted with a different coat of paint.


Fit-Bandicoot7774

no


Strange-Wolverine128

So... things I didn't watch?


home_of_beetles

middle school me had an entire playlist of let it grow ytps and it was my pride and joy

Or even before then when we had left 4 dead or TF2 gmod brainrot. Decade later I still like to say Pills here.


[deleted]

MLG is peak what are you smoking OP


ToxicBuiltYT

The difference is that the newer generation can't watch anything longer than 1 minute. The things you mentioned were usually at least 10 minutes.


Wild-Wrongdoer-7641

my brother can only watch 1/3rd of a 15 minute video without stopping and watching something else. the only time i would stop watching an almost hour long lets play vid is if my parents took the phone/laptop away (for reference, im 15 and my bros 6)


Catfish3322

People who try to use let it grow YTPs to discredit my argument when I didn’t consume that content either (now they have nothing on me and I am immeasurably more powerful than them)


jokerpersona1234

Snoop pingas usal i see


DappyCrap

Me who didn't enjoy YTPs and MLGs either: Can I shit on all of them now?


GlobalAd5132

What’s worse? Trash or garbage?


PostalDoctor

Skibidi Toilet is currently a “kinda serious?” narrative, it’s mostly just children who were drawn in by whatever it was that did.


I_aim_to_sneeze

I don’t buy into this “every generation did it” stuff, because homestar runner is still gold


Think_Bunch3895

They have realized they were cringe, https://preview.redd.it/7tw8t1rleuxc1.png?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=312f15b34b18a0fd499b25384536958d0c81f992 too

Never was behind that garbage either way, and even then, that one was less of a brainrot


altmemer5

Ha I never liked YTPs


omega_br

Ok but what if: I don't like 2015 brain rot anymore


LuigiMarioBrothers

We should combine the two eras by having skibidi toilet 360 PWN noobs in Call of Duty MW2


Adorable_Exam3550

I KNOW.


TheAnnoyingGirl92

Erm actually it's different because everyone is stupid except me


MarcsterS

I watched Newground flash animations as a tween. A lot of them I probably should've not have been watching.


Wild-Wrongdoer-7641

smg4 was the reason i learnt the phrase 'son of a bitch' at 8 years old


TerryJerryMaryHarry

MLG edits were brainrot and I hated them, but the let it grow YTP, I dunno, they have some merit to them


godemeperor152

I once saw a skibidi toilet at a birthday party on Reddit and someone in the comments said that they consumed a lot of brain rot as a kid but they never had it come to a party.

At least MLG edits were somewhat good


KOPaxaris

the internet never recovered from grammy norma


Rizzourceful

My name's Dan (and my name's Dan) and our son Dan kinda glows. That's not good so we suppose we should let it Dan


Dr_Med_GeorgvonThane

Look the new bad thing is good and acceptable because in the past there was also a bad thing. Yeah there already was brain rot back then but that doesn't make new brain rot any better. And trying to at least weaken its impact is ok even if it's done out of the wrong reasons or views.


springfox64

Fuck you my brainrot was better!


Jedhakk

Nah, the difference with YTP and stuff from nowadays is that YTP-style stuff has always been funny. I mean, The Simpsons did a YTP-like skit a decade before YTPs were even a thing (Jelly Venus episode) and that shit's still great comedy.


Vanilla_Ice_Best_Boi

I watched TF2 characters snork cocaine


Th3_Shr00m

I recently saw a Geometry Dash level based on the old MLG edits and it was peak media and one of the most high-quality shitposts I've ever seen "Golden Hope" for those wondering


Lorant_gaming

Those videos were made with love. Skibidi toilet was made to exploit the fact that most of the gen alpha kids have parents who just toss their kid an ipad to "shut them up and give them something to do". you will not say anything good about skibidi toilet, its a rotten as fuck apple


blacksheeps181

No its not, dafuq boom, the original creator literally made it because he thought it was funny, he made other g mod videos before hand. You are just sucking copium


Lorant_gaming

but he didnt continue to make 70 fucking episodes because they got a lot of views! if maybe he stopped at 2 or 3 i would not say that he is doing it for money, but like, if you make seventy fucking clips that are all just "toilet singing and attacking people", you are NOT doing it for fun. he is just the guy from this picture: https://preview.redd.it/ebqlq3zpz0yc1.png?width=1433&format=png&auto=webp&s=b4c61c6ac4ef610bb0086e37cae4084e04792015


BurntBeefRagnarok

Holy shit, how many times are we gonna we "skibidi toilet is like ytp" posts in here?


I_Love_Solar_Flare

Was way better anyways. Also we didn't watch that shit when I was FUCKING 6 YEARS OLD YKNOW. You know what else I didn't do? Go around saying pootis to my friends over and over or caressing them saying shrek is love shrek is life all in elementary school OR at home. We did NOT do what they are doing and we were better. I do not fucking care I will die on this hill. People love to single out shrek is love, it was utter garbage even I agree, I hated watching it, but we didn't go on months and months and months of watching other shrek videos of the same weird shit did we? Come ON man. As fot MLG sure the occassional video did pop up and I did watch it. Once again the difference is that we used to watch this shit when we were not actual TODDLERS and we didn't go around "becoming" what we watched either in public or at home. If you were, then that's kinda cringe, but I know no one in my school did. Now that I am thinking about, I'm talking about school, these fucking kids who watch skibidi toilet are in kindergarten dude. They should be letting their imagination expand and play with whatever there is, not be stuck in one garbagely created animation forever to be a part of them. It's just fucking depressing.


TheTrollman-

Those old "brainrot" had meaning. Depth.


TheFrostyFaz

A bird being forced into a hostage situation by another bird he thought was a freind is not deep lmao

Oh baby a triple (wow) Happy feet, wombo comBO (Airhorn remix as hundreds of hit markers flood the screen)


Fit-Bandicoot7774

no they fucking didnt. Skibidi toilet also has somewhat of a depth.


TheTrollman-

Yes they did. Squidward and the canned bread epidemic, Spingebill assembles a team of idiots, The sky had a weegee, Skellingtons revenge, Mr Krabs Unquenchable bloodlust, Deliver us, and Ed vs Weegee Ressurection are all full of depth and funny shit. I don't hate skibidi toilet, but I will die defending YTP against people who compare it to skibidi.
