Skibidi Toilet? Yes! Yes! The hit Gary's Mod animation came out of nowhere and immediately soared to the peak of TH-cam views. On that day, we received a grim but necessary reminder - sometimes silly yet earnest art is the best art of all.

Sad to see the "DireGentleman" moniker go, but ngl "We Are Not Alive" is a better name for a group channel that has a lot of guests such as this one.
I wish they had put out a short video addressing the name change. I only realized this was them because the Nimona thumbnail just *felt* like Dire Gentleman.
@@RightHandElf They did a community post, but a lot of people miss those
@@ZelphTheWebmanceryeah they're only easy to see on mobile for some reason
It's also a reference to one of Gus' old nightmares.
The piece of media in this "wierd apocalypse" genre that affected me a lot is a short story by a little-known author I've found on a local writer group 5-7 years ago. The line from that story I remember to this day is: "Day is a dangerous time. Day, not night. We used to fear the night, because we didn't know what was hiding from us in the dark, but now we understand: if something comes out at night, it knows to hide, means it knows fear, means it's alive and can be understood and dealt with. The things that come to hunt us at day are not like this".
Do you remember what the story is called? I’d love to read how the rest of it goes.
@@tweeandcute283 I remember it not having a name. It was written as a wall-o-text post in a Russian social network vkontakte or vk, in a group called БОЛЬШОЙ ПРОИГРЫВАТЕЛЬ (The Big Record Player), the entire text was in Russian. I can try to find it if you want, but I'm not gonna translate the entire thing.
That sounds really cool! Do you remember the title by any chance?
@@Shnyakwhat a shame! Still, cool line tho
Man I love the Diregentlemen, I hope they are alive
Well do I have news for you…
@@rainbowkittycat627 dear god…
We love to champion indie animation here at WE ARE NOT ALIVE, whether its a world of skibidi toilets at war with object headed humanoids or the 1920s-inspired world of cat gangsters in Lackadaisy - th-cam.com/video/drpxjNiKtnU/w-d-xo.html
I like media stemming from the goofy, ridiculous, and childish concepts taking themselves absurdly seriously like this. I think it's why I'm such a fan of Doctor Who.
There's something beautiful in absurd sincerity
@@mikaroni_and_cheezi think it's because it most accurately reflects our lives right now. no matter what side youre on, everyone is convinced that at least a sizeable chunk of the population at large is not only not connected to reality, but intent on acting out their wild fantasies via violence. it is absurd, and the repercussions are extremely sincere
Between the name change and talking about skibidis, I almost thought this was a channel my kiddo subbed me when I wasn't looking.
I was really confused because I didn't remember subscribing to we are not alive until I heard your voices 😂
Saw the video on my home tab a few times, didn't click, then i happened to see the community post when i clicked my subscriptions tab for the first time in years, thought "I don't know this channel", didn't even read the post, clicked the channel icon, and i was really confused for a hot minute at all the videos i had already watched
i started watching this on a whim with friends one night thinking "oh this is gonna be some weird creepy youtube kids gen z shit" and. im gonna be real. this shit is actually genuinely good. me and my friends who are all grown ass adults are enjoying Skibidi Toilet.
I had not encountered the phrase "Skibidi Toilet" before today but I feel like I need to witness it for myself now
The rant from 6:49 to 9:49 helped me identify a neat quirk of something I like.
The world in it has giant fantasy races-faeries, elves, nagas, etc-who hold perfect conversations with each other but all other humans are essentially food. The horror of that is thinking-quite reasonably-that you can get out by just talking, but they’ve already decided because they can just fit you in their mouths, which is the only factor for them. Entirely unreasonable and a purposeful threat.
EDIT: Screw DA. FREEKARBO!!!
@@KittyLitterYTI get the reference. Wish they had the yoyo, that was a missed opportunity.
Of all the things I expected to see referenced in this comment section, Felarya was not one of them. This really is the vore writing advice channel.
@@artaxissleeping fellow fan, or confused outsider?
@@etharchildres3976 I recognized what you were talking about, didn't I? haha
@@artaxissleeping
I’d recommend they check out Karbo’s art, but Gus, Henry, and especially Meg are clearly squeamish when it comes to it.
I’m currently working on an expansive story set there-a grand Fantasy Epic if I can manage it-this channel has been a great source of inspiration for that project.
I genuinely love skibidi toilet because it touches on both my nostalgia for Gmod animations and my love of visual story telling. I’m weirdly invested in the story and characters of this strange series and that’s a beautiful Things to me.
I’m obviously #teamobjecthead
Having just watched it after seeing this. My favourite part is how the perspective characters get more badass, taking more toilets out at once and shit.
I stil prefer Elliot goes to school but thats cool that you enjoy it.
I watched this series when someone was taking a palette cleanser break while streaming the other day, and i genuinely went from asking why it existed to really wanting more of it
To sum it up nicely...
📷👍
Im already enjoying this new erra of "The channel formally known as DireGentlemen".
Thought this channel got hacked at first when I saw the name change, but I'm glad to know y'all are still in control.
THIS! This is why I watch you guys! So many who have tried to cover this don't make it sound appealing. The coverage I've seen is made by people who don't understand, or can't covey something without sounding like they have a breathing tube shoved into their rear.
But this conveys it so well. It sounds like an actual recommendation! A sane, easy to understand recommendation. Not whatever people think recommendations are.
One video that I can’t help but be reminded of by skibidi toilet is “the real emoji movie”. It’s another really interesting and genuine story hidden under the veil of all the characters being emojis and dog memes lol. It’s so interesting seeing how you can execute a story in literally any you want and still be able to make people take it seriously.
the jumpscare I suffered when I saw I was subbed to a random channel and the Diregentlemen voices started speaking
i too was introduced to this from big money and.. the rabbit hole has not ended since
Alright, alright, I'll watch the GMod Toilet Apocalypse New Art.
I hope you’re right about TickTock’s positive aspects to teaching younger artists and filmmakers how to make great art. Mostly when I think about the platform’s affects and what it teaches them about art I get worried. (Mostly because of the censorship and the discouragement of checking out older works)
same
The new channel astethic is so cool!
On the topic of Junji Ito, GYO is also a weird-apocalypse story by him that's strikingly aesthetically similar to Skibidi Toilet, given how both are about nonhumanoid mechanical/organic hybrid forms with militaristic capabilities and theming.
Damn, this really Skibidis my Toilet
*I should call a plumber*
The point you guys made about the appeal of Killer Bean and the like reminded me of why I watched The Most Popular Girls in School. It started off as a 2 minute stop-motion skit with Barbie dolls in a high school setting, but as the series goes on you kind of forget about the doll aspect and you get genuinely invested.
I’m not a Direhard anymore and now I feel sad.
Now you're a WANAbe!
@@mikaroni_and_cheez WANAbe writer… Maybe it can suffice.
Finally, someone else understands that there's more to the fascination with skibbidy than just the memes. It's watching these silly societies evolve, and most interestingly to me, watching this young creator improve more and more at their craft! I have been impressed many times with how good they're getting at animating!
So dies the Direhards, so the WANAtion is born.
This isnt the first piece of internet media to feature Cameraheads, they originated from a creepypasta that for years was lost media. That combined with the gmod toilet creatures makes it seem almost like internet junk modeling, dead memes and disgarded premises being fashioned into new surreal post-context creations. This kinda dead meme absurdist up cycling (also seen in dark knight ballad of the n word and the trend of horror influenced troll face memes from a while back) is fascinating to me. its like mold that grows on the long forgotten food in the back of meme cultures fridge
god. now i want a video from you guys about garten of banban
I am i am honored for the we are not alive debut skibidi toilet video has come out on my 18th birthday, i have truly reached adulthood
I've always enjoyed the comparison between the Toilets with no body language and only exagerated facial expresions and the alliance with no faces communicating with thumbs ups and dance.
oh y'all got a rebrand! I guess I'll have to remember to look out for this new icon instead of the old one!
The new name is kind of a mouthful, I feel like you should have at least made a poll or something so we could have some input. But whatever, i don't mind it that much.
So this is essentially the Shitpost version of The Wall of Storms by Ken Liu.
Also the Wario land 4 Background music is so chill omg
Me before watching: WTF is this? I'm gonna watch it for the meme.
Me after ~20 episodes: I hope camermen win.
Gmod animation is just a web version and 21st century version of the surrealism movement.
One of the biggest things that stood out to me when I watched skibidi toilet was the great set up and payoff. Ideas like the toilet bugs that possess the object heads get introduced in their own episode, then developed in following episodes, before changing the tide of the war in some way in a later episode.
F in the comments for Diregentleman. Long live WANA.

The ongoing battle of Skibidi toilet, and The cameramen, which one will rise or fall #teamobjecthead
My coworker doesn’t believe me when I tell her that skibidi toilet is unironically an avante garde masterpiece so it was nice to see a more concrete breakdown of why it works
You still watching it?
@@ItsMovie_Sonic1 I check in every now and then and binge it. At the time of comment, I was fully caught up.
@@chaoticblades2382 nice also new episode is coming out Friday or Saturday its gonna be 6 minutes long so this is gonna be amazing
I am an object head 👍. On an unrelated note i think that gmod is the perfect medium for the weird apocalypse because its so jank. 3D animation in general is great for this genre can be used to fuck with a photorealistic model to make it look super uncanny.
I had only heard about skibidi toilet a few days before this was posted so I went in completely blind to this video and I was not at all expected for the Killer Bean name drop towards the end
Wait , when did the channel name chane ?
quite literally, 17 minutes ago
oh my god, you changed names literally midway through as i was watching you
Skibidi Toilet: Citizen Kane of shitposting
wierd series but fun
I went out and watched the full series bc of this video. Team object head all the way i hope they obliterate that giant richard nixon head with hammers!!!!!!
so what i'm hearing is skibidi toilet rivals the exquisite "VAPECON 2016" gmod art video. i'm on board
🎥👍
I'm team objecthead for the sole purpose that I love the Song "Everybody wants to rule the World"
I love how your love of storytelling permeates generations... I feel like a lot of people who were coming of age in the late 2000s or early 2010s are starting to get a boomer mindset when it comes to newer internet-sourced fiction...
I was just watching a vinny vinesauce stream about skibiti toilet and he just did NOT get it. and its so sad, because its honestly really sweet to see these mediums and formats evolve with the world, and if you're able to "experience them on their own terms" like one of you said, its really fun and gratifying.
let's never let the media-literacy part of our brains get too old.
#TeamToilet
TOOK A HOT MINUTE TO REALIZE WHAT THIS CHANNEL WAS
Oh I didn't realize there had be a rebranding, looks like I need to catch up now
I'm still waiting for the twist that the toilets were the good guys
Really like the new pfp!
I had heard about it and thought I couldn't like it. I hate what it is. I kind of hate that it exists.
But what I hate most is how much I liked it.
It is virtually dialogueless masterclass in story telling, while having genuinely fantastic action, good humour, and Kaiju battles that actually feel like they have serious weight.
Glad you mentioned killer bean. It was one of the first movie I ever watched with my grandpa when I was like 4. Horrible decision on his part but it's my top 3 favorite movies to this day.
Correction: This is made in source film naker not gmod
Skibidi toilet supremacy
Woo #TeamToilet
As someone who has been using a TV-headed persona for years, I think it's pretty obvious which team I'm with
#TeamObjectHead all the way, baby! woo!
damn they killed dire gentleman
Bye diregentleman 😢
SKIBIDI SKIBIDANGER
I AM ZE RE-ARRANGER
I'm going to forget o subbed to this channel with the name change
#teamobjecthead we will defeat the skibidi toilet menace
What's with the name change? Am I no longer a direhard?
We're all still direhards, and we'll still quote "it's dirin' time" when we're about to dire all over the place
Team TV head all the way. Also are the speakers/ cameras at war with TV heads?
Nah, all the object heads are on the same side.
Skibidi Toilet feels like a Power Rangers Monster
Only true we are not alive fans will understand 💖
WHO IS THIS!!!???!!!???!!!
diregentleman
👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
Will the Local Furry Vore Icon need a name change?
dissapointed that the MCU is going in this direction. not gonna lie. Toilets are not nearly as threatning as Thanos
Diregentlemen should make a video about SCP.
#teamobjecthead
Skibidi Toilet is a better critique of nationalism/imperialism than Attack on Titan.
(This is not a slight against Attack on Titan, a series I love and think that, aside from some specific creative decisions I disagree with, is a pretty good critique of Nationalism/Imperialism)
this channel is starting to scare me
Love from a Vaush and DafuqBoom Fan!
Hello voosh
What is this, a crossover episode?!
Jesus Diregentleman just went out the window
