#4! She's fabulous!
The two little girls. They remind me of kids I know. The one who did all the talking would make a perfect gay man and the other one is 7 going on 15.
I also have to go with the girl devoted to annoying brothers.
Agreed! That girl was perfect.
Tesla
The warehouse floor is similar to hair braiding in that both require concentration and seem relaxing. But dogs always win.
Yes, brilliant Tesla, and girl#4. Also adorable horses. And I like watching paint dry.
A degree in theater is not useless in general, just economically.
Tesla!!!
Then sticks! When me son was little, his favorite things were sticks, string, and tape.
I liked them all- the guy w/his abused horses was great- I had to laugh at the guys w/sticks. For some odd reason, I like sticks too. As does my dog- she carries a piece of firewood around, for crying out loud. Maybe a subconscious inkling from the hunter/gatherer days lol.
The theater degree guy. I would hire him.
I dont understand recoating the warehouse floor. I an sure the theater degree guy I hired could explain it.
Stick are fantastic Positional Goods. Especially, but not exclusively, for dogs.
Oh, and oh yeah, we all have brain differences.
“ I dont understand recoating the warehouse floor.”
He’s got spiked shoes, so instead of footprints, his steps leave only small holes and those holes fill in instantly.
The two little girls by a mile. Followed by Tesla, a mile back.

Wow. Were you a theater major?
The best dog and stick show is usually #Boscoandthebigstick.
IMO.
The little girl with a career, the man with the horses, and the dog that had been in the trash, in that order.
I was watching two guys putting sealer on my pool deck concrete and was certain they were going to paint themselves into a corner. Then I noticed the spiked Crocks over their shoes. Genius!
Those are all a lot of fun, thank you.
Late comment. Great selections.
The Horses on Politician is my favorite. But a close second is the young girl with the life mission of annoying her brother. So funny. The theater grad guy was also good and posted the best (and only?) argument I've ever seen for a theater degree (one which I pursued for a minute in college). And finally, the dog waiting for the statue to throw the ball was perfect.
I have some hesitancy in passing along clips people have made of their children.
I knew if I kept dragging myself here, month after month, year after long year, that it would eventually pay off. Well, it has in spades. These TikToks make every long slog through turgid prose and teeth-gritting obviousness worth it. Finally----VALHALLA!
The Tesla was genius. I liked the friend of the little girl who annoys brothers as a career better than the girl herself. That’s me when I’m with women complaining about men.
I would like it noted that I posted on the floor coating TikTok the answer that Ann gave before I read her comment above. I'm not a theater major either. In fact, I don't have a high school diploma.
"To annoy her brothers is this girl's career."
Love it. I had an older sister.
Sticks!
As a kid growing up in semi-rural North Carolina, I spent a lot of time in pastures and woods. A stick was an essential tool. It had a thousand uses, some of which were: (1) destroying cobwebs on the trail; (2) poking creekside bushes to dislodge sleeping snakes; (3) probing piles of cow manure for grubs to use as fishing bait; (4) swatting my brothers. OK, sticks had four uses. Still, an essential tool.
#7. The 3-D portrait of Nikola Tesla is my favorite. I enjoyed all of them, though.
Far be it from me to diminish or dismiss anyone's college degree, but the guy with the beard and giant coffee mug was extremely boring. If that's typical Tik Tok, staying away looks like the wise choice.
The short story is dying. Movies are losing out to TV. Twitter is a joke. Long form is the way to go. Rent (or stream or whatever) Game of Thrones now. It may surprise you.
The girl who realized her life's goal.
