All folks, as we know, tiktok is the dumbest place on earth and there are many tiktok trends that are unbelievably stupid.

1:01My producers have compiled some of these and I am now being forced at points of gun, perhaps, rank tiktok trends. So good luck to all of us. Number one, Ben. So this is the owl trend. So we're going to roll clip. See what happens. This is my impression of an owl who's also a jealous girlfriend. This is my impression of a Jamaican owl. Who? Bumblehoo. This is my impression of an Indian owl. Who? Impression of an owl, but the owl is from Brooklyn. Who? What do you think? What do I think? I mean, it's kind of funny. Am I only amusing? Yeah, I mean, I enjoyed the classical music in the background. Points for that. Points for that. But kind of amusing, I mean, OK, I get basically sum up a culture in a single facial expression.

2:07Wait, let's all try. OK, here's the Miami one, ready? Bro, who? Who are you? Who? I don't know. Do we venture into a Jewish owl? Who? Who? Who? It's just that can you sum up a culture to syllable? Get by, stop. Get by, go! It has nothing to go with the owls. It's basically just can you sum up a culture in a grunt? OK. All right, and not terrible. That was not terrible. All right, we'll rank them at the end. All right. Next one, the tortilla slap. What in the world? Yeah, so you put water in your mouth, and you have to slap each other with a tortilla. Are we going to sit here and say to you, but God, maybe it's an age group, really? She farted. I have a question. It's a serious question. So this whole thing is predicated on, it's OK to hit people now.

3:10So when a dude smacks the shit out of a lady with a tortilla, it's OK. Is that how this works now? Well, I can change that in a hurry. Well, you get to do it back, so it's like. Yeah, but if you did it with your hand, it wouldn't matter. What it? It's a flowery. It's a flowery buttery tortilla. I know, but I just like, I'm confused that I will have to try this at the office. Yeah, HR will definitely be in favor of that. That'll work out really well. I mean, that OK, it's funny and amusing. I would watch other people do it when I do this with my wife. My wife would be like, no on this. There's going to be a big no. Girls just made this up so they can slap men. Honestly, I think that's really what this is. I really think that's what this is. I think people want to smack each other. And so they're like, what if we did it, but in a way that feels funny and non-threatening? We should do this with political opponents, just bring out the tortillas. We did it. We did it, Joe. OK, we'll watch. 10 out of 10, we'll watch. Next is, all right, this is like the, you might have to play along. Get in now.

4:16Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Boom, boom, boom, boom. Boom, boom. I mean, again, we are a society with far too much time on our hands. That is what I take away from this. Now, also, Savvy is really good at this sort of thing as we noticed from that episode of Ben Aferdark where she banged the drum at the proper time. I spend too much time on TikTok. Yeah, I think that's probably true. They need to be a better mother. Yeah, exactly. We don't give Sarah enough time to spend on TikTok. Hey, hey, you're fired. Get out of here. I did, I did text Sarah last night. I did, in fact, text her. And as a reward, you shall read 2,000 pages about Hitler. Go. That is the thing that happened. No, honestly. You thought you left Harvard? Yeah, no, no. Psych, you learn more here. Also about balloons and spoons and moons and raccoons. OK, so wow. The truth is they would have, they would be up for at least the, the, the tortilla thing they would also be up for. OK, so we like, we like this so far. I'm not hating this as much that I thought I was going to hate this.

So I'm gonna be showing Devon some male famous athletes to see if she can. Athletes. I love them too. You can name them. All right, so we're gonna start with one that you should know. Is that LeBron James? Yep, that sounds nice. Okay, that one's easy. Good job, Devon. All right, who's that? Jim Carey? Is he an athlete? No, but he kind of favors Jim Carey, yeah. I have no idea that is Tom Brady. Alex Earl's boyfriend. No, I'll let you know. All right, you better know this one. I didn't know who this was. Can't tell what hurt me. I see that's a NASCAR jacket.

7:20Good job. I have no idea. Tell me a break. Who is that? Soy Jesus. Dale Earnhardt. Do it for Dale. What do you know of it? And by the way, women could absolutely do this to men, but it would be with female influencers. Like anything gossip related. You can bring it to a man. Like I've no idea what you're talking about. None. That's fair. So I think that there's an equal opportunity thing that happens here. I will say that on my very first date with my wife, it was 2008. Damn. I'm sorry. It was the primaries where McCain ended up winning. And at that point, I was supportive of Romney and the primaries. My wife later admitted she had no idea who Mitt Romney was and she was kind of embarrassed by that. I said, that's not anything to be super embarrassed about. You know, that is the way that this works. All right, next. So this is bringing random objects to school or work. Yeah. They have water in their mouth.

8:23Yeah, so the water in the mouth thing is just to see who can laugh. It's like a laughing contest. Yep. Got it. I like the tortilla thing. That's why they don't let us do it on set. There's too many cameras. I don't know why the squash is the funniest thing. Yeah, I don't know. I think that that's just that that guy got to go last. So that's all that happened. If he had been the first person to go and he brought a squash that wouldn't have been that funny. But also that clearly the funniest thing is that is the mixing bowl, clearly. Wow. So we're team ginger. Did yours have souls? I got a church. I'm a Christian. Yeah, I mean, on this one, yes. Because basically, this is just the Mary Poppins challenge, right?

9:24Oh, that's true. That's a good name for it. This is the Mary Poppins challenge. Like, what is the biggest thing that you can take out of your bag is what makes it funny? Because if you just reached into your bag, and you took out like a cup, it's not funny, right? Anything that you would normally think of that would fit into your backpack. So if you have some sort of, you know, expandable object and you were just taking out a lamp and just kept going, right? Then that'd be pretty good. All right, I know we were all thinking, what would Ben bring if we did this? And we were like, definitely his sword. All right, that's right. Or one of my children's swords. I did buy them like actual Lord of the Rings swords. Well, let's just roll this one. Today, we're going to be using this giant jack of all to strap it whole through the deck. So this is from Producer One. I hate this. Men are just grabbing, yeah, biggest bait they can find to try to catch big things. We can pause it.

10:24Absolutely not. Yeah, I hate that. I hate that crap. Yeah, I truly hate this. And also I'm confused by the use of Katie Perry's lesbian music. I don't even think of that. Yeah, that's it. There's some strange, some very, very strange choices being made there. Okay. This is also a good life insurance ad. Okay, exactly policy genius. Fuck. I don't know if they're unsure for this because you might be a moron for seven. This is the last one. And you know, I know it. Yeah. This is a little shameless. But after that, it's embarrassing to watch this, though. No, no, no, no, no, no. You know what? I'm the only one who just got this. Look at the focus. Yeah, I was counting for you. No. Yeah, no. No, I'm not gonna get it. I don't care. One, two, two. This is fun. I like this. Four. And I'm done. You got it.

11:25Okay. Wait, he got it. Eventually, eventually. It took 93 takes. You got to count the bars. All right. Yeah, see how we got it like right away. Oh, I was really excited by that. You are. See that face. That was the exciting. Wow. Wow, it's in my jeans. Here comes. It's so good. We are diverse. We are. It's true. Yeah. It turns out that, you know, diversity level was, was predictive. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. D-I for the win. D-I for the win. Well, that's the last one.

12:25Okay. Can we rank these Ben? Sure. Okay. You want me to list them out for you. Yeah. And we'll ring them in terms of like, which ones I like the best? Yeah. Or would do or what? Would recommend. Would recommend. Would recommend. Okay. So the ones that. So like, there's what I would watch and what I would do with these are kind of two different categories. Okay. So I'm too precise in my rankings, systems. So what I would watch, the tortilla, the tortilla slap is obviously the funniest. Right. It is the most watchable, followed by probably the object challenge, followed by. Who? Followed by the rhyming. Followed by this, followed by the shark. I mean, it is okay. So that's like what I, what is watchable as far as what I would do. The object thing, probably number one, because it's actually inherently funny. Number two would probably be the, the who? Number three would be the rhythm thing. Number four would be the tortilla thing and number five would be, number five would be the Whitney thing. I just, it's annoying to me. And number six is still the shark and I hate the shark.

13:27It's, it's terrible. So in summary, the tortilla is our favorite. The tortilla is definitely the most amusing. Like, if you're, if you're going to watch like a series of 10 videos, the tortilla thing is really amusing and the object thing is also very amusing. Those are the two. Right. You heard it here first, Ben, after dark riders. Hey, so the kids have too much time on their hands, but they're doing some amusing things over on the TikTok. So that was less painful than I thought it would be, except for that due to got eaten by a shark. Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.
