Tik Tok.An unhinged meme factory.
A place where the algo knows me better than my Mum. Somewhere I can cook, slay and stare.
But here’s some stats so you know we’re not just amping this whole Tik Tok thing into a bigger thing than the thing it is. It’s actually a real thing:
“It’s not just eggs and giggles on Tik Tok though. We’re there checking out fits, too. Like what does a jacket in oversize look like from behind? This is key stuff, people. We need this app to save us from ourselves.”
40% of Gen Z will use Tik Tok instead of Google. We’re here for it all, but music is our Tik Tok love language Out of 2 billion Tik Tok downloads, 60% is Gen Z.
So, this is our Gen Z-powered guide to the most important app in the world.
Food
For recipes that slap, I’m straight on Tik Tok. Why? Because it’s right there. In your face goodness.
And we’re learning something new, always. Like Dubai Chocolate. Who knew I needed that in my life? I did not. Now I do.

But there’s more on the menu than the most unreal chocolate ever made. Just about. Because when work is dead, I can escape to my happy place: #SlimeFood.
Laughs
No vibes? No problem. Get your phone, stick it in your face, and find your happy place. Tik Tok is dripping with the funniest stuff on the internet, LOLfest for real.
Some samples? Why not?
This one sends me every time I see it because let’s face it, we’ve all felt like this at least 3 times in our lives. Maybe in one week actually.

Anyway, could be you’re in the mood for something a little, er, different. Like whatever the hell is going on here.
But look, here’s the thing. Laughing at yourself is just as good as pointing and laughing at others. Even when it’s parents doing it. Puro cringe.

It’s not just eggs and giggles on Tik Tok though. We’re there checking out fits, too. What’s hot, what’s not, what does a jacket in oversize look like from behind.

This is key stuff, people. We need this app to save us from ourselves. Take getting ready for the day ahead. You know what helps? Not 716 different alarms on my phone each time to go off a second after the last one finishes.
No, I’m talking the #GRWM phenom. Get ready with me, for anyone who lives under a rock. Hints, tips and tricks to help you glow up. We even get to see how grown-up couples who support each other do it. Essential.
Anyway, say less, here’s a few more examples of the stuff we watch when we Tik Tok.
Italian Brainrot. No explanation possible.
Workouts, ‘80s style. Something to bond with your Mum over? Maybe.
New ways to swerve work. Essential research.
