We Did A Brainrot Tiktok Tier List
Introduction
In today's video, we took a deep dive into the ever-evolving lexicon of Gen Z slang by creating a Brainrot TikTok tier list. It was a fun yet chaotic experience as we broke down various terms and phrases that have been popularized on platforms like TikTok and social media. We discussed expressions spanning from "Rizz" and "Phantom Tax" to "Goofy" and "Skib," categorizing them as "goated," "good," "mid," "below mid," or terms that "shouldn't exist."
Unpacking the Terms
The video kicked off with an introduction where we acknowledged the peculiar use of the term "folks," which is more common in Ohio. As we explored the list, we were both excited and somewhat anxious about the potential backlash these slang terms might invoke. The audience has been eagerly requesting this sort of content, so we aimed to deliver.
The tiers outlined our perception of each word's impact on culture and its popularity. For instance, terms like “Rizz,” “Livy Dun,” and “Phantom Tax” were highly regarded due to their influence and relevance in current online discourse. Contrastingly, others like “Dulu” and “It's Giving” were categorized as terms that ideally shouldn't exist due to their overuse and lack of originality.
As we continued, we also ventured into fringe terms, such as “Looks Maxing” and “Sigma,” ultimately deciding that while they hold some comedic value, they contribute to what many consider "brainrot," a term we amusingly embraced throughout our discussion.
The Classification System
The classification system was laid out as follows:
- Goated: These words are the kings and queens of the slang world. They have made an undeniable impact and show resilience in everyday conversations.
- Good: These words are appreciated but might not hold as much influence as the 'goated' ones.
- Mid: Words that are just okay; they don't stand out, but they also aren't dreadful.
- Below Mid: These terms are losing steam and often feel outdated.
- Shouldn’t Exist: The least favorite terms that are often annoying, overused, or lack originality.
As we finalized the rankings, the dialogue flowed naturally, and we shared personal anecdotes and collective memories that many in our audience could relate to. The comedic undertones allowed for a laid-back atmosphere, making it enjoyable for viewers.
Concluding Thoughts
Ultimately, this exercise made us reflect on the cultural significance of slang and its rapid evolution, often shaped by social media dynamics. We encouraged our viewers to engage with us by sharing their own opinions and personal experiences with these terms in the comments.
This video may become a staple in our content as we explore more tier list possibilities in the future.
