Here are 5 TikToks for your amusement and edification tonight. Let me know what you like.

1. Topiary japery.

2. The singer demonstrates that the washing machine alert signal is Schubert's "The Trout."

3. The father who apologizes to his teenagers explains apologizing for 3 things, including the way he put on Chapstick.

4. Quite by chance, this young woman shows the difference between the way women and men put on Chapstick.

5. Opioid crisis painting.

Topiary. The others are lame.

#5. And the Dems want to make pot legal and ruin more lives. Evil.

pretty good trout song. Trouts are laughing happy trouts

Rosalyn C. ayon kay ...

For sheer enjoyment and amusement I would rank #1 the how men and women put on Chapstick.
Topiary japery is a close second.

Number 5 was very sad, and very good.

Readering ayon kay ...

Definitely not the painting. Topiary well done.

Chapstick is great - especially after watching the Dad with the deadpan delivery

I Use Computers to Write Words ayon kay ...

I moved into a new apartment in May. I was quite bemused by the absurdly elaborate "Your laundry is done" jingle the included washer/dryer made. It's precisely that jingle! I believe I have the exact same model. I've been wondering what the song was for months, so I'm very pleased to find it so serendipitously.

Addiction, regret and forgiveness are powerful themes, and it heartens me to see the tictoc form able to encompass and do them justice. Congratulations to the artist.

Topiary - It's all a joke until somebody disposes of their cold walking-coffee.

Trout - I'm not sure what's going on here,but I like it.

Father - should just say "Sorry not sorry" and pretend to flip his hair.

The difference - Mean but funny. That dooby-dooby-ba-dooby music! And her look at the end! Winner.

The misogynistic one was best.

The artist's TikTok was powerful. And beautifully done.

Ha ha. Very cool. Glad to have facilitated this amusement.

I agree. That's in the running for most powerful thing I've seen on TikTok. When someone disparages TikTok as being frivolous short things — teenagers dancing, etc. — show them this.

Trout Song? Already knew that. Benefits of living with women who have music degrees.

I think the addiction recovery/painting one will stay with me for a while. I'm a sucker for the topiary japery kind of humor...it reminded me of how hard I laughed at a video where a person rigged up a tarantula costume for their small dog and scared the bejesus out of people.

#5. The painting was very well done. But I prefer the original that he painted over: The Road to Emmaus.

Will Cate ayon kay ...

I like them all, but I like the washing machine that plays Schubert the most.

Aggie ayon kay ...

#4 It's a little hard to make a convincing 'People are crazy (but I'm normal)' confused expression when you're wearing a noze ring.

#5 was very poignant.

Jupiter ayon kay ...

Our stove does "Stand By Me" when you turn a burner on.

Farmer ayon kay ...

I'm a big Schubert fan, but The Trout was the only good thing about our Samsung washer and dryer. We just replaced them with Speed Queen.
