My new collection of TikToks goes all the way to 11. Let me know what you like best.

1. Such an intense night.

2. Far away and then very close

3. Emmanuel! Do not do it! Don't do it, Emmanuel!

4. You let a marshmallow guilt-trip you.

5. A pretty arty song about shame.

6. I can't not show you the man in shorts when he's in Wisconsin... and these are the shorts.

7. I will take my shirt off before executing you/I don't think I need that, personally.

8. The history of pants raises the question why anyone is wearing pants today.

9. Finding it so much easier to talk to the dog.

10. No. We do not think you're sexy.

11. New advice from the certified vibesmith.

It's one louder than 10...

Note to vibesmith -- if you open your mouth outside, a bug might fly in it.
#1 is of course the shorts -- but it's really the TShirt that ties the whole ensemble together, making it make sense, isn't it!?
I also like the avalanche/dam release video. Motto: Always have an escape plan.

The guy in the avalanche was uninjured.

#2 Exciting - Glad to hear he lived.
The rest didn't go with my mood. I'm into creeping charlie extirpation, lawn, flowers, small animal holes in lawns, why is the tomato plant turning yellow, or as Tennyson put it:

"Sun rain and sun. And where is he who knows?
From the great deep to the great deep he goes."

Marshmallow farts FTW

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

Feel free to repost if I took your comment down, but spare me the pointless observation that you think someone is gay. So the hell what? Enough of that. Write your own blog if that's your issue.

#2. I felt my asshole pucker just watching it.

Yancey Ward म्हणाले...

LOL!

As long as you are consistent, I don't care.

The guy in the avalanche hasn’t been injured YET.

All in all, a very strong batch.

I'm always an easy mark for a fart joke. So...

#1) Marshmallows. The fart was a simple but surprising and defining piece of this art. Almost Jim Jarmusch-ich in style.
#2) The Avalanche. I saw it yesterday. Was it on this blog?? Very intense video. Would have won if not for a fart.
#3) What would you do if you saw me at the red light...and I honked my horn... This was pretty funny, but too many and it just keeps going on and on.
#4) Vibesmith. Not sure what's happening to me. I'm becoming a fan of Ricky Gourmet.
#5) Intense night.
#6) Arty production about shame. This was a great production. Great voice, loved the choreography and the entire thing except...I feel so bad for this entire generation that seems so unsure of their own selves. What used to be a few seems like an entire generation now. Women have all the goods going for them. They need to get past the small stuff and just be. Whatever it is they are.
#7) Stop it, Emmanuelle.
#8) Crocheted shorts. I was going to be all in on anything 'shorts', and state that whoever was wearing them was a potential Floridian. But once I saw the shorts? No. That's all Wisconsin all the way, baby. Even by Florida standards (and we have Florida man and woman all around us) those would not be acceptable.
#9) Pants history.
#10) Dog talk. I got his point. It was too long for what it was.
#11) Shirt off to execute you. Meh.

The pants Romanhelmetguy say the oldest pair of pants we know about are from the 10th century BC but he's off by at least 2,000 years: Otzi the iceman is from about 3230 BC and had "goatskin leggings or pants."

We've been through the "are leggings pants" arguments here already, years ago!

Kay म्हणाले...

Starting to really love the vibesmith, lol!

Jim K म्हणाले...

Avalanche and shorts.

Michael R. Arndorfer म्हणाले...

Unlike the previous video, this recommendation by the vibesmith is on point.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

when pretty girls are shamed for not being pretty enough.

Time to get out of NYC or HavreyWeinstein land

Marc in Eugene म्हणाले...

Haven't begun reading the day's posts yet but got distracted by the glimpse of 'shorts in Wisconsin'. I'd happily buy a pair of those crocheted shorts. And wear them. But not after the rainy season begins.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

winner- the shorts. the t-shirt and the shorts.
Lucky guy.

Will Cate म्हणाले...

That is quite the almost-dozen tiktoks... but my vote goes to "I will take my shirt off..." for sticking to the classic format

Curious George म्हणाले...

Don't do it, Emmanuel!

Sydney म्हणाले...

The song about shame. Brought back so many memories from my younger days. At age 60, people no longer shame me, unless you count catty comments about my gray hair. I guess that is shaming but it no longer bothers me. The song made me realize how much I have grown in my self confidence. When I was younger, though, boy was I vulnerable. My mom, schoolmates, even in-laws had no qualms insulting my looks. Even strangers would comment on how fat I was, and I was never morbidly obese, nor did I wear too tight clothing. What the hell is it about people that they feel so free to insult women?

Patrick म्हणाले...

I agree with your "no men in shorts" rule, but I would make an exception under those circumstances.

Saint Croix म्हणाले...

ha ha

If it had been me, I would have the marshmallows terrified of the hot chocolate.

"Don't scald me to death! Please!"

"Die, marshmallow, die!"

I think it's because I saw Mr. Bill when I was young.

Anyway, possibly because he is on the other side of the world, he went in a completely different direction. That was funny. Funnier than Mr. Bill, actually.

Stephen St. Onge म्हणाले...

        Those were almost all very good.  Didn’t much care for the guy who was too shy to talk to the dog owner. And I couldn’t get sound on #10.

        Best, in order of decreasing enjoyment: the vibesmith, the guy in shorts, bad bird Emmanuel, the song about shame, the cats watching the petal, the marshmallows, the glacier, the history of pants.

        But again, almost all really good.  Thanks for the selection.

Far away then way too close. Worth a repeat.
Mashmellows made me laugh. Had to watch it twice

Robert Marshall म्हणाले...

Shorts! Did you see how quickly and smoothly the man's son moved completely out of camera exposure, when Dad started to show off his red-white-blue crocheted shorts?

OMG!! Dad!

Leslie Graves म्हणाले...

Is it wrong of me to feel that these give me hope for humanity?

Marc in Eugene म्हणाले...

There was a period in my life when I wore what #8 called 'flowing robes' every day-- they're certainly much more comfortable than many trousers. And it's good to know that the avalanche guy isn't dead; I had wondered but chiefly because at some point or another I watched a French or Scandinavian movie about an obnoxious family whose breakfast on their hotel balcony was interrupted by a similar avalanche... beside the point, I guess. Talking marshmallows, #4, was most amusing.

They would be fine. The hot chocolate wasn't hot.

In many ways, I relate to the guy who finds it easier to talk to dogs. For that reason, it was the hardest to watch because it gives me second-hand anxiety.

I like the history of pants. I've started wearing dresses more often lately. This video makes me appreciate more that I can do it without anyone questioning it.

BudBrown म्हणाले...

Well, for me there's liking and there's texting links- maybe because that'll get me liked. I texted the avalanche.

JustSomeOldDude म्हणाले...

I almost stopped it because it was so clearly Chick Tune, but Shame was really good. Loved it.

Susan in Seattle म्हणाले...

Hard to pick a favorite. The avalanche, the shorts, the marshmallows, and the song were the ones I watched more than once. I liked the history of pants and the intense night with the petal too (the cats look like a pair we had a long time ago).

farmgirl म्हणाले...

Avalanche tok didn’t work. Says it’s been removed.
Loved the shame video. It seemed brave w/out being a pity party.
I’m w/Mary Beth. The dog video gave me goosebumps of cringe. Awkward x10
