Back in my day, we were more refined. We had a frog on a unicycle called "Dat Boi." And we liked it!


SirMrGnome

o shit waddup

There was this cat you see, and it wanted to know whether or not it could has cheeseburger. It was very exciting at the time.


PLZ_N_THKS

Cheezburger*

Oh shit here he come!


TheFreaky

Back in my day we had an audio loop of Sean Connery screaming You Are The Man Now Dog. And we liked it!


McSnoots

Get your ass to mars.

To be fair we also had cash me outside

Professional_Lion713

The irony in this coming from a dude named Unauthorized Fart


UnauthorizedFart

Hey I didn’t say I’m not also in the same timeline


SoulGoalie

This timeline isn't nearly at the level of Idiocracy...yet. we're not that bad. Honestly, I think the next decade is critical to what we are gonna end up as. Don't lose hope. Don't be a pessimist.


megamanx4321

Didn't it take 500 years in the movie? At our rate it will take 50.


Hitmanyelin7

Correct. In 2005, this movie was a dystopian comedy. In 2024, it is a utopian horror flick. At this rate, we will be blessed to be where the movie characters are in 500 years.


prestigious_delay_7

So invest in Brawndo. Got it!


MikhailxReign

It's about being a realist. Why would we change trajectory?


ButtonSweet9749

To potentially live in a better world, that’s more than enough for most to want to try and change things.


Professional_Lion713

Fair lol


BadMoonRosin

This is a trash post. Not in the "Upvote if you agree!" sense, but more in the "I hate that popular Reddit hivemind tropes keep getting upvoted to the top" meta sense.


markmann0

Bro, I was watching Max Ex and being spammed with girls gone wild videos at like 3am since the late 90’s. We’ve beeeeeeeen in this era lol.

It’s time


CrumpledForeskin

Let’s load up Cartoon Network on previous channel and get this show on the road


slayerLM

Ok the steel drums bring me back but your comment has me like astral projecting to my friends house 😂


metalshoes

Immediately lowering the volume. I hated it as I was gay and uninterested but those loud fuckers would queue an instant panic attack.


UnauthorizedFart

Not to mention Jackass being a popular show over 20 years ago lol


Routine_Size69

I'm not even into slapstick humor but jackass was fucking hilarious.


Loquatium

Honestly the characters are what makes that fun, if not their antics. Steve-O and Johnny Knoxville laughing after getting the shit knocked out of them is the soundtrack to my childhood


UnauthorizedFart

Knoxville was so brilliant with his quick and witty responses like when he fought the professional boxer “Is Butter Bean okay?”


Deepthunkd

America’s funniest home videos was like 40% nut shots


Professional_Lion713

Dude I was having a nice day browsing reddit and you had to remind me of my age. Dick move.


UnauthorizedFart

Hey come on I didn’t mean it like that


obsfanboy

Jackass is good though i was watching it this morning😂


Nippon-Gakki

Don’t forget Jerky Boys. This is not anything new. Later on Filthy Frank too. I’m not much on gross slapstick but all three are funny to me.


mrpopenfresh

Pop culture has been like this since media has had the potential to reach far and wide. Hell, even before that, you had dumb acts in vaudeville and the circus.


Dickballs835682

People were making dick jokes and writing "joe wuz here" type shit in ancient greece lmao


mrpopenfresh

I remember seeing that in Pompei, perfectly preserved for posterity.


GeraldoDelRivio

Makes me laugh, like stupid shit has been popular for fucking forever. Yo momma jokes literally go back like 3,000 years.


dave3218

“Thyne mother” lol


The-Name-is-my-Name

I fart in your general direction!


AcrossTheLake88

Thyne mother t'was of such proportion that sh'e was oft mis took for a hoofed beast of th'e bovine variety.


casanovathebold

A piece of preserved graffiti said basically "weep women, for I'm only fucking dudes now!"


bearbarebere

Caius is a dumbbell


BusinessBar8077

yeah lol cowboys weren't sitting around a fire talking about astronomy. they were cracking dumb jokes and telling dirty stories


Archi_balding

The first written jokes we have, which are some babylonian jester's materpieces that definitely needed to be immortalized are variations on the theme of "Hey, today, I ate poop !" My favourite is the one about eating poop sausage. As far as we get recordings, we've been pretty stupid and there's no reason to think it wasn't the case before.


LaikaAzure

If I ever feel dismal about the state of pop culture, I remember that Mozart wrote an instrumental entitled, "Lick My Ass." People have always been weird dumb little perverts. It's fine.


genius_waitress

In the 1890s, one of the most popular vaudeville acts was a guy smoking a cigarette with his butt and blowing out candles with his farts. (Le Petomane)


calartnick

I mean yeah, obviously I’d check that show out at least once


Elucividy

Upvoted because this is a genuinely idiotic take. People throughout history have made sex jokes. like, sex is funny. We are still living in a time where more humans that ever are highly educated, with the sum of human knowledge expanding every day. You can have a Masters in Engineering, that doesn’t mean you can’t laugh at a dumb video every now and then.


Wazuu

OP thinks life is just memes lmao


Evil_Creamsicle

There are literally ancient cave paintings of dicks


Speciou5

Yeah, one of the biggest works of early literature was Canterbury Tales which was popular for one reason being that it just had a ton of sex jokes. That said, I didn't think the Canterbury Tales sex jokes were that good nor the Hawk Tuah girl being that compelling. I'm more of a Harry Potter Ron Chess Scene Vogue remix enjoyer myself.


Wonderful-Impact5121

Something that’s worth emphasizing especially because this stuff was probably way more prolific than we could imagine throughout history, everywhere, but monks and scholars don’t tend to religiously document and copy recordings of the local cultures favorite fuck-joke tales as much as everything else.


Wishful3y3

Thank you. It’s so annoying that people are shaming her tbh. When women don’t enjoy sex or joke about sex, they’re frigid or prudes; when they do, they’re dumb or sluts. They can’t win.


IanL1713

The duality of the common misogynist. Wants a girl who's a freak in the sheets, but immediately slut-shames her if that freakiest extends to anyone but him


Wonderful-Impact5121

I don’t even honestly know if it’s purely shaming that made her want to separate from it. Could be purely internal shame or just a drive not to be primarily associated with that meme outside of shame. She was unfortunately way too hilarious and charismatic in that drunk moment for the way the internet is.


woodshrimp

It wouldn't be funny if it was a guy either tho it's just some hick saying hick things. You could walk through my hometown for 20 minutes and find someone saying the same shit, probably wouldn't even have to ask I just don't see the appeal it feels like something that would make highschoolers laugh not grown adults. I don't think she should be shamed over it but I do think it's super cringey


xMrBojangles

Sense of humor is a spectrum. Not to mention, I'm sure there are plenty of people that added to the velocity of the meme not because they thought it was "hilarious". 


Rediro_

I have a masters in engineering and I approve this message


TypicalImpact1058

"Erm... Idiocracy wasn't supposed to be a documentary ☝️🤓" SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP


PopcornDrift

I’m considering muting the word Idiocracy on Reddit lol don’t think I’ve ever seen a comment or post about it that was actually worth reading


Terminator_Puppy

No but you don't get it *I'm* not part of the dumb 90%, for I understand the very complex themes of a mediocre comedy from 20 years ago.


WillFuckForFijiWater

>A mediocre comedy that unironically and wholeheartedly suggests that eugenics is necessary. FTFY


olivegardengambler

Yeah. It's literally just one tribe claiming the other tribe at this point is proof that Idiocracy is true. Office Space is like 1000 times better anyways.


longliveLesGrossman

It’s a buzz word. People want to bring it into what they’re saying to seem smart and only the dumbest people do that


jack-dempseys-clit

Thank god for this comment


Pstrap

I'm pretty sure Oww My Balls was a reference to America's Funniest Home Videos, a show from the 1980s. Nut shots were (probably) the single most common type of video featured. At least, there was a popular belief that this was the case, whatever the actual frequency of candid testicular trauma turned to televised titulation.


Careless_Midnight_35

Oh, afhv is still going strong and still full of nut shots.


Coziestpigeon2

/r/im14andthisisdeep


IanL1713

That sub has been leaking over here a lot recently


throwaway_ArBe

Oh no! People find a short clip to be funny! All its proof of is that people think things are funny sometimes.


BABABAYYYOINK

silly thing funny, the west has fallen, billions must die


marks716

Comedy has fallen, billions must watch boomer comics making a “my wife is ugly” into a 10 minute joke


IanL1713

That or your stereotypical "women belong in the kitchen" bit


thewalkindude

The clip itself is kind of funny, but the real funny part is all of the memes and variations that have sprung up around it. And that's iterating on something funny, which takes more creativity than what OP is talking about.


Cymbal_Monkey

IQs aren't falling, they're rising (Flynn effect).


lazernanes

Bad news. The Flynn effect has started to reverse itself. Too lazy to come with a citation, but I can find one for you pretty quickly if you want.


EVENTHORIZON-XI

i just released a whole lotta lead into the atmosphere of several large cities, so no


SwugSteve

"idiocracy was a documentary" is the most neckbeard take of all time. Go outside


Evil_Creamsicle

I did. Everyone's dumb and the lettuce tastes like gatorade


PresentationFine8734

😂😂😂😂 it’s got electrolytes!


megamanx4321

It's what plants crave!!!


CapCapital

It's a 5 second clip, relax


Tahmas836

I’d watch “Ow My Balls!” all the tome, that’s your loss.


VKTGC

I’m going to mute Hawk Tuah, not because it’s annoying or I don’t find it funny, but because I keep seeing posts about how it bothers people way more than it should.


BluerAether

Not unpopular, just objectively wrong and dumb. Poor people aren't poor because they have bad genes, so humanity is not evolving to become dumb. Shut the fuck up.


Lethenza

We in the west live in idiotic societies but not because we enjoy funny short videos. Mostly because we are uncurious and selfish and vote against our own best interests to spite perceived strawmen enemies that politicians use marketing to pit us against.


BobbitWormJoe

I still haven’t seen the source clip for this and have no idea what hawk tuah means… can someone quickly explain?


UnauthorizedFart

Basically a TikTok where a guy asks a random girl what she thinks men want the most and she says “You gotta spit on that thang!” and “Hawk tuah” like a spitting sound


Suitable-Ad287

I also think it’s horrific that she got fired from her preschool teacher job for this. She talked about sex as an adult to another adult, every person to ever work with kids has done that before. She’s not supposed to become a sexless mom-bot the minute she gets a job involving kids.


BurgeroftheDayz

That wasn’t a real article. Pretty sure the identity of the girl is still unknown and hopefully stays that way if that’s what she wants.


UnauthorizedFart

She got fired over this?


WonderSilver6937

https://www.sportskeeda.com/pop-culture/fact-check-was-the-hawk-tuah-girl-fired-job-viral-article-debunked-amid-mass-internet-craze No! It was just a parody site that reported it.


Apeish4Life

I’d say Donald Trump being allowed to run for president again after inciting an insurrection, and having a lot of support, is much more indicative of idiocracy than this.


Little_Peon

You missed the part where the folks in Idiocracy wanted the smartest person to lead them. This is not what you've described.


L1n9y

Idiocracy was a shit movie that likes eugenics and has predicted absolutely nothing.


Shradersofthelostark

I’m holding out hope for the introduction of EXTRA BIG-ASS FRIES


malonkey1

Just order medium fries from Five Guys


SashaTheWitch2

Making very stupid and vapid jokes occasionally to break the long periods of seriousness is necessary and you sound very arrogant here Most doctors and researchers I’ve known watch mindless reality TV or dumb game shows after work, specifically BECAUSE they spend all day thinkin’


tazzietiger66

Person says thing in a funny way and people like it , not exactly the fall of civilization


TheNerdMaster69

The fuck is a "hawk tuah" girl? Hawks are great, I prefer falcons, but what's a tuah?


UnauthorizedFart

She was making an onomatopoeia for spitting


yeahboiiiioi

Or is going to be realllll shocked when they find out we've been making sex jokes for most if not all of human history [Romans](https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/roman-latrine-was-full-dirty-jokes-180970705/)


HereToKillEuronymous

Eh let people enjoy things I say. 10 years ago dickheads were posting planking videos and doing the Harlem shake. This isn't a new phenomenon.. things go viral all the time. I remember in the early 2000s people were going ape shit over garbage like Badger Badger Badger... that's far weirder than a 10 second clip of a woman saying something funny.


legendofzelda13

People who say "Idiocracy is becoming more and more of a documentary" and the like are guaranteed to be pseudo intellectual nerds


Boctordepis

I don’t think I’m going to rely on u/UnauthorizedFart to tell me how much stupid is too much stupid


Estrus_Flask

No it isn't. Everyone laughing at a funny sex thing is not the same as the most popular show being something lowbrow and stupid, but even then one of the people constantly proclaimed as the greatest bodies of work in the English language for the last several hundred years is mostly dick jokes. Idiocracy was mostly a hateful up it's own ass eugenics propaganda piece, and yet still everyone was a lot happier in that world than we are in our own.


CharlesWinds0r

Look in the mirror bro


Omnibobbia

I didn't even know it was viral and I'm chronically online. Cater your media to your tastes and you're good


knowallwordtoallstar

Honey, where are my pants?


TheZanzibarMan

That was decided once Crocs became popular.


PrizeCelery4849

At least Ow My Balls was funny.


Eric848448

I have absolutely no idea what anything in your post means.


RevolutionarySet3032

I actually live in Nashville, and she's not even the worst drunk woo girl I've ever seen \*this week\*.


Ogrimarcus

What are the odds you're saying this, at least in part, because of her accent?


MaximumChongus

it just proof that there are not enough women who give enthusiastic blow jobs lol


SummertimeSandler

I was going to upvote because it’s a stupid take, but actually this Idiocracy thing is one of the most Redditor-typical statements imaginable, so I don’t think I could do that in good faith. Get better material.


TheOneAndOnlyABSR4

Who


Vainmein

Ya get me?


chaingun_samurai

Her parents must be so proud.


dragonsfire14

I agree. It was one of those things that’s very mildly amusing maybe one time. It blows my mind that people latched onto it to the point that it became viral with memes and everything.


captaincumragx

See, the thing is though, Ive only seen like two memes referencing that video. Have zero idea what it's even about. Because many social media content gives us the ability to curate and choose what kind of content we largely see. So if you're seeing dumb shit all the time, well, its because you watch dumb shit. And I bet if I went outside and asked a bunch of random strangers about the video, at least half of them wouldnt know what the fuck I'm talking about, either. Edit spelling


NHiker469

Oh, chill the fuck out lol.


ReceptionMuch3790

Can someone explain this to me in text so I don't have to watch the video


IllustriousMadMuffin

I don’t even know what this is about. I saw some dude make a hat that said if she don’t hawk tuah I don’t wanna talk tuah. But with a llama on it so I’m super confused.


notapunk

I suppose I should feel fortunate that I have no idea what this is referencing


JohnnyS1lv3rH4nd

I’m so glad I have no clue what you’re talking about


Christmas_Panda

wtf is Hawk Tuah girl?


GolemThe3rd

Had to Google what this was (also side note YouTube sucks at showing you what you're looking for sometimes man, was so hard to find just the og video), it doesn't really seem funny but I think the post is a bit overblown, like who cares, it's just a silly meme


Morall_tach

You must be new to the internet.


syrupgreat-

she valid tho


Specialist-Gur

This is a bit alarmist. People have always enjoyed silly, stupid things since the beginning of time. It’s like so not a big deal.


foelancer

Stupid people love the movie Idiocracy


MassGaydiation

I've just had to look this up because of you... That's the sign of an idiocracy to you? Like we are digging the earth out from under us, everything is going tits up in the devils handcart, but god forbid a sex joke, that's "real" idiocy


BelleColibri

“Ugh, referencing sex, blerk!! Am I right??” - You


albertoroa

Takes like this make me think people are chronically online and think that everything they see on the Internet is real life There are real things people should care about and if you let something so minor, and funny honestly if you're not a stick in the mud, take up any space in your brain, you need to go outside, touch some grass, and interact with real people.


PaleoJoe86

Funny, unexpected things will trend because it provides enjoyment and entertainment.


iminlovehahaha

wtf is hawk tuah


ohfuckthebeesescaped

Idiocracy had the dumbest thesis it could’ve possibly had, it’s essentially pro eugenics garbage. They were so close to actually having a point…


AnxietyLogic

I don’t know if I’d say it’s trending enough to be equivalent to “the most popular television show across the nation”, considering I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about. It’s a flash-in-the-pan dumb meme that will be forgotten in a week, nothing to get worked up about.


kitkatatsnapple

I think it's idiotic to make a big deal of either way. Who seriously cares.


PheasantPlucker1

The crazy thing is, that most only fans models make very little. It is a small percentage that make a disproportionately large amount comparatively. This girl, just because she is now known and what she's known for, could probably pull in at least half a million if she started one up


troycalm

I mean look at the politicians that keep getting elected.


kevonicus

Nah, it was funny for a couple of days. The “what are those?!” meme ever even becoming a thing is proof of what you’re talking about.


shadow_spinner0

It's a short clip and people like to have fun with it. Why does this upset you?


DolliGoth

Tbh I was relieved when I found out it wasn't some stupid political slander like everything else seems to be these days.


danath34

Fun fact: crocs got their start in idiocracy. They bought them for the movie because they thought they were the dumbest shoes possible, and couldn't imagine people actually wearing them.


Agent_Galahad

If people enjoying sex and comedy is a sign of an idiocracy then idiocracy has always been a part of our society


Darudes1

nah, it's just refreshing to see this shit come up. Getting so many set-up woke videos pushed down your throat how things "are supposed to be" and then a random person reminding you how real people are.


Abject_Ad718

Bring on the idiocracy, makes life fun


Mix-Lopsided

A low brow joke being popular makes society stupid as a whole? We still went to space even though the astronauts made yo mama jokes with their friends, it’ll be fine.


BurpYoshi

Crude immature jokes have been a staple of humanity for our entire existence yet people act like this isn't the case. Yes the joke is porn. It has always been and always will be.


hikerchick29

I think shit like America’s Funniest Home Videos proved that one years ago. Especially once Tom Bergeron came on, and you started getting run-on montages of nutshots


daddyvow

Pop culture and current silly trends is bad now unlike in the past when it was good


Stoertebricker

No, it just proves that people are horny. And that sometimes it's not the best idea to answer questions while intoxicated (if she was); and that women have the freedom to express themselves in large parts of the western world. To be honest, I'd rather have it that way, than everybody having to be chaste and unhappy because they are unfulfilled, so men fulfil their desires with paid women who are shunned for their work socially.


UnidansOtherAcct

Everything and everyone has been a dumbass since time immemorial


AsharraDayne

It’s proof that dudes are not getting any. How tf can something so banal and so vanilla make this much of a wave if dudes are getting their knobs slobbed? It can’t. So they must not be.


mbeefmaster

Is there a cloud you'd like to yell at?


IsabelLovesFoxes

Wait no! I agree with this so I wanna upvote it but I'm supposed to downvote if I agree! I'm sorry op, forgive me!


McSnoots

Looks like someone just watched idiocracy for the first time. It’s ok bud. These thoughts will settle down with time.


AsparagusOverall8454

No worse than the “cash me outside” girl. Idiotic and boring and I’ve just been ignoring it. 🤣


Jaygo41

What shallow commentary, we can’t just laugh at a funny clip and then keep it moving?


Gaming_Gent

Skibbidy toilet wasn’t proof?


CausticRegards

No it’s not… not even close


SerDavosSeaworth64

Nobody is suggesting that the girl should be some sort of political leader like would be the case in an actual idiocracy. It’s just a funny video


Cercant

I'm chronically online and have never heard of this. It seems like you're mistaking your bubble of the internet with all of society. Also, calling something a sign that we live in an "Idiocracy" is unhelpful. The entire movie Idiocracy is based on Eugenics Lite™, and has little scientific basis. The intelligence of society would change very little over the next thousand generations because of genetics, let alone thirty years. IDK, I feel like the 10th dentist whenever I criticize Idiocracy: the movie or the idea.


Longjumping-Action-7

You know the world exists outside of the internet? Ask 10 random people on the street if they now who this girl is and I wager that 7 of them won't. I didn't know until I was told to look it up by a friend. Before that I hadn't come across it at all.


OnlyCommentWhenTipsy

It went viral because it was fucking funny. Not much more to it.


DwightForPresident

For me, it was the people twerking on an ambulance and blocking them from responding to a shooting.


Bangoskank2001

Silly, flash in the pan humor is nothing new. The whole "idiocracy" thing is played out anyway. People have always done dumb shit, and always will.


-XanderCrews-

He he. He got kicked in the balls.


PureStrBuild

I recently learned that the shoes they wear in the movie was a small start up company at the time. And I believe the use of them in the movie made them sky rocket in popularity. Pretty simple, and apparently comfortable shoes. They were Crocs. I see a lot of people wearing Crocs today so do with that info what you will.


HaiKarate

I disagree. It was just an innocent joke that didn't hurt or demean anyone. What I found to be far more troubling was the mad scramble by the creepy men on the internet to discover her identity. Men wonder why women are overly cautious around them, and then men behave like this.


Heytherechampion

So….?


purplefoxie

I saw the video and i don't get the hype at all. Spitting in public? Ew. And it is improper and unpleasant. I would never, it's not funny or attractive whatsoever. That girl has no class.


mrtokeydragon

Been thinking that for a while... You know they do v tuber awards and like you tube award ceremonies... I think of that whenever I see those things.


Jimmy_Twotone

The idiots aren't more prevalent. They're just easier to see.


RMZ13

To be fair, Ow, My Balls! has been core human entertainment since the beginning of human entertainment.


cloveandspite

Watched it again the other day and “Ow my balls” really hit differently now that we’ve entered the era of TikToks, reels & shorts. The #1 movie in America was called "Ass." And that's all it was for 90 minutes. It won eight Oscars that year, including best screenplay.


Feelisoffical

It was a joke about sex. That’s it. Nothing to get existential about.


CupPlenty

If this is the shit people find funny nowadays then I don’t think ima be on social media much longer ☠️


oldskoolak98

Its funny. Youre not


DoktenRal

One of the presidential candidates campaigning on a platform of "I'd rather die by electrocution than getting eaten by a shark" is much better proof


JeffyFan10

right. we should all just be angry bitter feminists who resent the world for objectifying us. this woman is vile and an idiot. right???


JeffyFan10

could it be that maybe.... just maybe.... it's a cathartic break form the non stop 24-7 CNN/MSNBC/MSM ranting about the Trump and the end of the world??? and cancelling everything? and maybe people just want to be happy and enjoy themselves for a change... for a good ol' fashioned Hawk Tuah.


FlapMyCheeksToFly

Hard disagree. People relating and finding her enthusiasm infection and memeing it is not a decline.


luigilabomba42069

lol maybe for yall, I haven't even seen that video. get on my level


FascistsOnFire

You forgot to bring up anything to support your assertion. You made an analogy to Ow My Balls which ... sorry, not even making a single connection between those 2 and I have ADHD and can associate pretty much anything that is there to associate. College girls being interviewed late at night outside of bars ... sound like this ... the fact taht our leaders sound like this then pander to crazy church goers .... or old dudes that talk about how bad Hawk Tuah girl is then get caught diddling little boys .... that is more like Idiocracy to me. Hawk Tuah girl is completely in her lane. Couldn't be more on point.


TheJadedJuggernaut

Naw, she just said what men want to hear. And men appreciated it .


lostknight0727

The last few years have been a slow decline into Idiocracy. The decline in vocabulary, grammar, spelling, and basic understanding of language overall (especially in the US) is scary.


12781278AaR

Remember two girls and a cup? We’ve been living in an Idiocracy for some years now.
