I want to be good at spotting iterations of trends that I don’t already know about. I don’t want to be the out-of-it blogger...

... who criticizes something for being off or weird when it’s actually a thing. I want to get out in front of it, recognize it as a thing, and criticize it from a savvy position, or at least know to shut up about it.

I don't know how good my skill is, because this one might be too dumb and obvious to be tricky....

... but my first effort — searching TikTok for "Who said that" — uncovered the meme. Here's a collection of examples, ranked:

Here's one that's more seriously political:

It's a bit like when you hear an old joke and you know it's an old joke even when it's the first time you're hearing it.

Who dat who say who dat when I say who dat?

So the original trend is people saying things everyone knows but can't say in public, kind of like a mini Chris Rock or Dave Chapelle bit.

Kommie-lay's video is sort of in that spirit, at least the part about drinking margaritas.

Calling attention to the rumors that she is a drunk is an interesting choice.

Knowing when "to shut up about it" is an underrated skill in life, both professionally and personally.

After you install TikTok so you can watch these things because they don't play embedded how do you get back to the one that Ann posted? It always flips to the next TikTok.

I don't get it. I'll let myself out.

My younger son's mantra for avoiding this sort of situation is, "First thing I thought, not the first thing I said." (His mother and I put him into martial arts for a reason.)

There was an episode of Love Boat in 1978 where a running gag was that Billy Barty, the midget, would make short jokes, then do a "Who said that?" take. I'm guessing it comes from burlesque.

who criticizes something for being off or weird when it’s actually a thing.

When something is a thing, it can still be off or weird.

If this is a thing, I don't mind it. There are so many thoughts we aren't supposed to say, it's probably good to say it.

@RideSpaceMountain
In the commentaries that I've watched, no one will pronounce "Theetge". Who said that? Nobody.
I can see it being pronounced "Teat Ghee".

“Iterations of trends” 🧐

Mary E. Glynn ayon kay ...

It's cool, annie.
You're still the coolest girl on the block
Everybody ages but you, look what you've build here in your old age. Got married again. Kept your house. Got the two boys out of the nest, educated, self supporting, grandkids via meade and who knows? Pets in the neighborhood, did we mention meade? A daily routine, a lake that only scuzzes up late in the summer. Heck you've got it all girl... AND you're hip to the newest latest trends. Be more secure in who you are at your age. Don't worry about the cohen boys. They're not IDF. They wouldn't kill a fleas... You done good ann. Dawn and the ancestors are proud.

Just because something is "a thing" doesn't mean that it's not "off" or "weird." Many things are.

Iman ayon kay ...

But “the thing” is not a thing “thing”.

Lem Vibe Bandit ayon kay ...

The "who" in "who said that?" is the boomer voice in our head who may not be alive anymore to say stuff like that.

RCOCEAN II ayon kay ...

That was cute. Good for Kamala.

Will Cate ayon kay ...

She's good at jumping on a micro-trend. Last year, she was quoting a Kendrick Lamar song ("dey not like us")

To borrow from Churchill "I may be drunk, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be stupid".

It's cute. It'll be gone in a week. Except on SNL. It'll be there for months.

Kamala thinks we thought she was on a beach drinking margaritas? I don't know about you all, but I never think about her at all if I can help it.

Smilin' Jack ayon kay ...

“I don’t want to be the out-of-it blogger... who criticizes something for being off or weird when it’s actually a thing.”

If this is actually a thing, it’s both off and weird, as well as boring.

Calling attention to the rumors that she is a drunk is an interesting choice.

Really? So you think her being sober when she babbles on endlessly is a better look?

Being a drunk gives her an excuse for her stupidity. What's yours?

JIM ayon kay ...

It's an inside joke that very few people are privy too... I guess. If Kamala kept her thoughts simple and brief, perfect for Tik Tok minded people, she could actually go far. She's definitely has a unique personality. But she's so full of shit. And she's a committed Commie.

Olson Johnson is right! ayon kay ...

The joke is supposed to be this great uncomfortable truth that your internal voice says to your self. Harris misses the joke (like many here) and instead compliments herself and throws a promo for her book.
