David and Jason's $100,000 Bet

Yeah, the reason TikTok is so great and why it hasn't taken over Vine is because— you guys have to watch it because TikTok's great because you have like really cringy shit, like shit that shouldn't be on the internet, and then you have some like really cool shit, and then you have some like subpar funny shit, and it's like a really good mix. And their algorithm is really weird, and they like, they, they show you the best stuff and like all our friends that use it are on it for literally an hour or 2 hours a day. It's so interesting. And the reason I think it's good is because Vine— I don't mean this in any disrespectful way to any TikToker, but I feel like Vine, you needed a little bit more creativity to get like to make a Vine, right? But TikTok is so easy because you can just put a song over something, right? And you can dance to it where you don't have to like be trying to make a joke or something like that. You can just kind of be yourself more. So I think, I think that's why TikTok's like popping off, because literally anyone can do it. Yeah, anyone can do it.
