What does skibidi mean?

If you’ve been within earshot of Generation Alpha lately, you’ve likely heard the word skibidi tossed around…a lot. Skibidi, which is nonsensical slang, can mean everything from “cool” to “bad” to “weird.” This brainrot term can essentially mean nothing or stand in place of many words (e.g., “What the skibidi?”). Skibidi commonly functions as an adjective, as in the phrase skibidi toilet (more on that later), or it can combine two slang terms, like skibidi rizz.

Where does skibidi come from?

Skibidi rose to popularity through @YasinCengiz, a TikTok creator known for belly dancing to songs. In April 2022, Cengiz posted a video set to the Biser King song “Dom Dom Yes Yes,” which features vocals widely heard as skibidi. After that video went viral, skibidi was used in remixes and memes across social platforms.

Then, in February 2023, YouTuber Alexey Gerasimov, aka @DaFuq!?Boom, created Skibidi Toilet, a series of computer-animated videos where human heads pop out of toilets and sing a mashup of Timbaland’s “Give It To Me” and King’s “Dom Dom Yes Yes.” The phrase skibidi toilet then went viral, proving it couldn’t be flushed away so easily in the age of internet meme culture.
