Just 5 TikToks for you today. Let me know what you like.

1. How to take a picture of your potato.

2. Lonely and depressed, he thinks of what Winston Churchill once said.

3. She bought more clothes at the thrift store that turned out to be unwearable.

4. It's not enough to just tell this boy he's not going to like unsweetened cocoa straight from the container.

5. The girl who survives on 3 iced lattes a day.

#4 is an old video- predates TikTok.

A quarter of a square (1/40th of a bar) is a good sized sample of Lindt 85% dark chocolate. Acquired taste.

Why does the woman buy unwearable clothes? Is she stoopid or something?

My grandson once had to eat a jalapeƱo, with my blessing, to be really sure he doesn't like it. Better to find out for sure, my thinking, than go through life wondering

Sir Winston, inspirational as usual.

Kid eating cocoa powder is the winner; I remember that disappointment.

It's cocoa powder. It should taste great. It doesn't. This makes no sense.

"Why does the woman buy unwearable clothes? Is she stoopid or something?"

Maybe to try them on, comically, for Tiktok.

My mother used to make fudge using the Hershey's Cocoa powder- it always amazed me how little of it she used in the process.

And, yes, as a young boy, I gave the powder a taste, with the exact same reaction.

I think most of us have gone where that boy went. The winnah!

unwearable lady is mighty thin.

It's an important life lesson to find out that even something you love, like chocolate, can betray you with its bitterness.

Iced latte girl doesn't need help. I need to know how to spend my days going to the gym and walking around listening to music instead of having to go to work. I would be willing to learn to like iced lattes, if that's what it takes.

I've been trying to talk my daughter into going to the thrift store with me and each of us buying the other an outfit that we would have to wear out to dinner - some place somewhat nice. We're still negotiating the rules. She wants hats, but I'm thinking that we might have trouble with that one. Maybe we'll get lucky and someone will have just cleared out their stash of Derby hats.

I only watched the cocoa boy but that was great.

Thanks for the TicToks. So much fun, even if they’re not good. Today I like photographing the potato and Churchill.

Three Latte Girl is my favorite but I liked them all pretty well. I like many of the TikToks that trend but I don't go down that rabbit hole very often. I have enough electronic time vices already.

Love the Churchill. Not sure why, but I Lol'd for awhile.

The Churchill quote became crystal clear when I turned the laptop to play it for my wife. When I didn't have the visual, it was easily comprehensible.

"She bought more clothes at the thrift store that turned out to be unwearable."

I laughed. The rest meh.

Cocoa boy learned a life lesson. We've all been there.

The thinness of Thrift Store Lady makes her hands look freakishly large.

She's like the female Slenderman...

Winston Churchill is so funny.

Retire and it's yours.

After I read the text of it in the comments over there, I could hear it in the clip, but before that, it was hilariously garbled every time.

Churchill was my favorite of this batch.

All of them are winners.
