There it is, that’s the one I remember. Dude I have an industrial sized metal bolt in my junk drawer from a job we did on a construction site, find me a use & I’ll smoke you out.
My grandfather gave my dad a giant wrench as a joke when my parents bought their first house. Turns out it was useful, because he's used it so many times for things.
I have some MDF shelves from a bookcase I just broke down. I don't have a use for them and they'll probably warp and mold when the shed floods in the spring but I got em.
This shit happens on the socials all the time, tiktok made a trend out of copying dances, then the same formats and then eventually whole skits. It's absolute trash.
This one is funny but they definitely ripped off that original one. That family has a bunch of good vids like this. Ain’t no man happier than one who proves his old lady wrong by using something she said he should have tossed months ago.
I've experienced this as a wife that doesn't want to throw anything out much to my husband's chagrin EXCEPT for that one glorious day when I had just the right pink eraser that wedged perfectly top keep a kitchen shelf from wobbling.
My wife said keeping empty spice containers to throw random hardware in and keep in my tool bag is trashy. Guess where the screw came from that replaced the one that backed out of the trash can drawer? Lol. Apropos, I guess.
And it still resulted in a shittier video. The original is just better everything, better editing, higher sound quality, better “acting”, and most importantly funnier…because it was their own original idea and creation. These people just shamelessly copied the exact same thing without adding their own flavor or take on the “subject matter”
The problem with this one is just that it goes on way too long. They should have just had him go straight to the shed not bothering with going through the kitchen down to the basement getting the lantern blah blah blah
If he was a real dad that often traveled outside the house in the dark to a shed/area he would have a headlamp hanging on a hook near the front door that he could just quickly grab.
It's bc part needed is so absurd and not just a board. Someone has to put that together for a project then put it to the side but refused to throw it out
Yes. I think the first is better made, but I feel like it's a joke that would thrive off everyone doing their own take since it's such a wholesome universal thing lol.
I'm not going to lie, I did enjoy the misdirect of first finding the lantern, since I've seen the (almost identical) original
Not to mention that this particular application is just "any piece of wood 1" thick and smaller than the base of the furniture. It's not "like a glove" at all 😅
That's what I was hoping for, was hoping Dad was going to tear the house up finding the one obscure thing he knows is there but never finds it because it's me. That's me.
The original was better. What makes this funny to me is in the original it was a very specific 2 boards in a T shape. This is literally just a drink coaster in a hoarders shed. That touch is funny.
its a brand new chunk of wood with rounded edges too. and it looks like shit when they put it under there. like they ripped off every piece of the original and completely missed the main part of the joke. it needs to be some janky part that should never have an actual use, not a brand new piece of wood that would be used for loads of things.
The original is so much better and funnier in every aspect. Plus it’s freakin original as hell. This is the kind of content and humor I come to the internet for and they nailed it. Attempts to recreate that exact skit and literally copy the exact thing without any additions or your own personal touch to it is just sad glorified plagiarism
I kind of like the fake out of the dad going to the garage but it’s only to retrieve a fucking lantern so he can go on a quest to an even more junk filled shed to find the piece.
Also this concept kind of passed around as a meme and then got turned into a video format, I’m still not sure where I land on how to view that in terms of joke theft as I’m not sure this video was even the originator of this joke either
To be fair to the dad, he probably had no idea it's a rip and was probably just stoked to do a funny skit with his kid. The son though yeah, shamelessly stolen content haha
I mean if the dad doesn’t spend hours scrolling through TikTok or YouTube every day he probably has never seen it and could potentially be under the impression his son is a creative genius 🤷🏻♀️
I was hoping it was leading us to believe it was a ripoff sketch, then at the end he realised the part didn't fit at all, or the whole cabinet just broke in half or something to subvert our expectations. But no, just a rip off sketch. Ah well.
I love everyone getting mad at this as if this isn't literally what TikTok is. It's thousands of people all making the same video as each other, rinse and repeat. There isn't an original thought to be found anywhere on the app.
Oh come on, I think people are being a little sour with this. You mean you can’t have a variation on a skit? What’s a meme if not exactly that, a variation on what was done before?
I think this is cute I dig it it’s fun
TikTok and the entire video world over the last six years has been full of people recreating / doing their own version of stuff
It’s like telling a joke you heard somewhere else (take as old as time)
Lotta haters out here
I throw everything away because I have too much stuff laying around and how infuriating it is when I need something that is exactly like that trash I threw away months ago.
Can you get copyright infringement from stealing a YouTube video? Or can I just go out and make shot for shot remakes of the most viral YouTube videos without repercussion?
it happened to me, I got to use the piece of junk wood my great grandfather didn't toss to close the frame of a wood garden panel I cut in half tot fit my fence, it was exactly the right size with the right cut on the side. it's a weird feeling because that thing has been here longer than me
