North West gave her mom, Kim Kardashian, a necklace for her 44th birthday that was inspired by a viral YouTube video, which some claim has had a negative impact on a generation.
Yes, it’s quite unusual. Kim Kardashian’s oldest daughter presented her with a diamond necklace valued at up to $20,000 and had it engraved with the words ‘Skibidi Toilet’ for her birthday on October 21.
Before proceeding, consider whether you truly want to delve into what ‘Skibidi Toilet’ signifies and whether it might alter your perception after learning about it.
Kim Kardashian shared her birthday gift from North on her Instagram Story, marking the occasion on October 21.
Olivia Landau, CEO of The Clear Cut jewelry brand, informed PEOPLE that the necklace could be worth between $15,000 to $20,000. Each diamond is estimated to contain around 0.08 to 0.10 carats, with a ‘solid plate’ beneath the engraving.
The necklace’s reverse side features another engraving that says: “Love, North” along with the date.
But why invest so much in a diamond necklace only to inscribe it with ‘Skibidi Toilet’? you might wonder.
In May 2023, a YouTube user named ‘DaFuq!?Boom!’ uploaded a video titled ‘Skibidi Toilet – Season 1 [FULL SCREEN]’ on their channel.
The caption reads: “First 4 episodes of skibidi toilet a.k.a. as toilet in ohio in fullscreen. skibidi dop dop dop yes yes skibidi double u reeh reeh.” Indeed, it’s perplexing.
The video itself adds to the oddity; it’s a one minute six seconds long animation that features a peculiar yet catchy tune played over visuals of a human head popping out of toilets and urinals, moving in various directions. Tiny people appear throughout the animation, and the scenario unfolds across four episodes.
The phrase “What the heck is going on?” seems to summarize the entire video effectively.
Viewers quickly shared their thoughts on the clip, with many still commenting to express their disbelief.
One YouTube user remarked: “You have set humanity back by nearly 50 years.”
Another joked, “DaFuq is probably having an Oppenheimer moment right now ‘I am become skibidi, destroyer of cognitive development’,” while a third added: “Imagine being able to put on your resume: ‘I ruined an entire generation’.
Finally, another user concluded: “Don’t blame this guy for making this series. Blame the parents who allowed their kids to have an iPad early.”
The video evolved into a series with over 70 episodes. The YouTuber has gained more than 40 million subscribers. Yet, one social media user commented on Kardashian’s necklace: “I’m officially old enough to not understand the new ‘trends’ anymore.. tf that even mean.”
Nonetheless, the necklace holds sentimental value for Kardashian and West. It’s truly the thought that matters.
