I agree. It is merely evolution in action.

Not like some of us didn't do this when we were kids...and continue to do so!

I do believe I see a full moon..."Pant's Up!"

Tik Tok is generating a lot of contenders for the Darwin Award.

Which means that it's doing us a service by improving the gene pool. I can live with that.

Never believe anything you read anywhere unless you have confidence in the source.

Never believe anything.

At all.

Ever.

Here are a few new creative tick tock challenges for people that do not win prizes, here’s a chance at winning a Darwin Award. Remember you can’t fix stupid. Feel free to add to the list.

Jump out of a 30 story building or higher.
Eat a scorpion.
Eat a black widow spider.
Sleep with some black bomba snakes.
Swim across a lake full of alligators.
Sky dive without a parachute.

I heard that China uses different algorithms for Tik Tok in China than in America.

In China, Tik Tok promotes videos that show Chinese people being good citizens, tutoring the young, assisting the elderly, offering math or cooking or gardening lessons, cleaning up the neighborhood, and doing other positive things.

In the West, Tik Tok promotes videos featuring outraged blacks, crazy trannies, slutty women, and stupid challenges.

(Although the ADL has successfully lobbied China to deplatform "hate" from Tik Tok.

But overall, Chinese Tik Tok incentivizes good behavior. Western Tik Tok incentivizes crazy, violent, slutty, and self-destructive behavior (but no "hate").

two-story metal slides

When we were young, we would bring waxed paper to slide down and shine it up so we could go real fast. Fun days.

Yet, TikTok is still very popular in this country. It’s no surprise in a country that is 50% Democrats, heading for the cliff at breakneck speed.

The one useful thing about TikTok is thinning out the herd. Unbelievable what people will so because of a social media app.

Why hasn’t the Chinese communist app Tik-Tok been banned in the US? Not that that would stop people from being fatally stupid...

Yah, it is natural selection. We no longer have bears and wolves in the neighborhood to cull the stupid.

I did a grain alcohol self-challenge when I was 17. Once! Never challenged myself like that again!

Fools dying in Tic Tok challenges. Lefties not having children. Morons lining up for another clot booster.

There may be hope after all.

That doesn't look particularly dangerous. Of course, I failed to be scared by killer bees and the summer of sharks.

The Daily Mail is fun, but it's not to be taken seriously.
