Just 5 selections from TikTok for you tonight. Let me know what you like best.

1. Sublimely twee cabins.

2. Dog on a log.

3. Brilliantly uninformed fashion critique.

4. There seems to be a gigantic gaping pit in this on-ramp.

5. Mouth-focused impressions of mouthy mouth actors.

I doubt there could be anything more awesometastic than those twee cabins, so I’m voting without further viewing.

The fashion critique one was rather bad, the mouthy mouth actors was fabulous. Her Emma Stone was spot on, as was her Drew Barrymore.

Gaping pit was classic Zebra thunder

#4 is like an Escher painting.

These are getting to be my late night entertainment.

Loved the cabins. Very cool and I would like to see the interiors. No interest in living in one, but I'm impressed with their designs.

Felt bad for the dog. He/she was scared and holding on for dear life.

Couldn't make it through the fashion critique. No slam on the person making the video. I can't make it through any fashion talk.

Gaping hole illusion was very cool as well. Looked like a gaping hole to me. But as I'm used to being around a lot of 'gaping holes' I would have just proceeded to keep moving around it.

Very talented mouthy actor impressionist. Very well done.

All good. Thanks for plucking them out.

        I liked the fashion review.  Most of the . . . whatevers she criticized were ugly.

I wish I could understand the fashion critique lady, but regardless, she still gets first place.

The fashion critique was awesome. Very much "the emperor has no clothes" feel.

The puddle/pit is in the Kilbourn Tunnel off I43 in Milwaukee. It's pretty heavily travelled.

I liked the Mouth-focused impressions of mouthy mouth actors.

Twee cabins.

Looks like they were built by Hobbits.

Birdwatcher said...

I liked Number 5 best. I found it rivetting.

farmgirl said...

“… looks like the inside of a drain if I poured glitter down it…” funny.
“Let me know if you’d like to see the insides of these cabins…” Duh.

Liked them all. I almost skipped the fashion critique. Glad I did not. She has a Shoe on Head vibe.
Shoe on Head?

Really enjoyed the droll phrasing of the fashion critiquing and the mouth impressions were surprisingly funny and enlightening . TikTok does give people with quirky talents a place to shine.

1. Twee outhouses, mostly

2. “WHEW - I made it! Almost lost my COOL back there!”

3. Young person practicing their online snark. Hey, as long as we’re at it, you’ve got a fish hood caught in your nose!

4. Cool optical illusion. But I’m not sure I would have posted all my comments along with it showing that I was half in the bag.

5. Fabulous impressions and declared winner.

I like shoeOnhead, but fashion girl needs either a better microphone or lessons in annunciation. She's like listening to Billie Eilish.

The woman’s voice on the cabins was not to my taste and distracted me from content

The dog one made me uncomfortable. That dog was terrified.

The fashion one got better as I watched was too generational for me.

The puddle was interesting.

The mouth woman was excellent. Clever topic and well delivered. But she will be cancelled because she is white and acted as a black woman in one snip.

Just so you know Ann, thanks to you I’m now addicted to TikTok!

The mouth focused mouth actors was great.

Yeah, I love the summing up with "I give it a [elaborate phrase] out of 10."
