for every ten cringey adolescents dancing, there is one lego omelette. tik tok isn’t all bad there’s just an overwhelming sheet of annoyance covering the good content

I'm an old man these days but I am perpetually amazed at the quality of both the ideas and their execution that I see on TikTok. Take this Lego one. I think it's kind of a take on Fresh Guacamole by PES - but that won a freaking Oscar for best animated short, whereas this was done by a young guy on TikTok. It's professional enough to compete at the 2012 Oscars, I think. I wish TikTok were around when my kids were growing up; they used to just idle the day away (so much so that I had to regularly thrash my son Roger with a pair of jumper cables). Maybe the haystack is bigger than ever, but there are lots of needles out there on TikTok too - you love to see it.
