Social media “challenges” have always been pretty stupid and can sometimes even border on life-threatening, but we’ve officially crossed some sort of line in the sand here. According to Insider, users on the video-sharing app TikTok have taken to pissing their pants on purpose in a desperate attempt to garner more clicks and followers. The challenge was initiated on April 21 by 19-year-old Liam Weyer (@liamw2), whose post was viewed nearly 2 million times before being removed and re-uploaded.

Weyer later told Insider he made the video as a parody of other dumb challenge videos, but, as is often the case, sarcasm was lost on the internet at large. “I’m surprised to see that people on the internet will pee themselves if you call it a challenge and add a hashtag,” says Weyer, who presumably has never met most people on the internet. Soon, other users were pissing their pants in earnest, having no regard for how this might affect the resale value of their parents’ 5-bedroom suburban homes.

Thanks to the natural progression of internet memes, these authentic pants-pissers were soon replaced by parody pissers and pants-pissing reaction videos. Thankfully, this means the life cycle of this particular “challenge” is already nearly at its end. We only hope the next one that emerges is not scatological in nature.

Urolagnia goes mainstream!
Unfortunately, this doesn’t even make the top 10 stupidest things to happen in 2020.
KC Green knows exactly why this was started.
LOL. My first thought was “You know people will actually pay money for this, and they are giving it away for free. hmm.”
It breaks my heart that a fellow Warren voter would participate in something like a piss your pants challenge. … We aren’t supposed to be the dipshits.
That guy is 19?Ouch.
Okay I have a proposal. Can we adults keep the cool internet we love. Like with the random facts about Cartoons we have not seen since we were young and the ability to buy whatever perverted items we want online. And maybe lets have a separate internet for the children with the Tik Toks and Instgrams and shit. I figure we can have join custody of the porn internet
Yeah but are any of these kids doing it as an exclamation point at the end of a rap battle? Amateur hour.
THIS is why I don’t have kids. Not because I’m bad with gf’s and relationships. Not because I hate kids. Because I cannot figure out how miserable your life must be to think that this is fun. I’m officially an old, because I hate the younger generation. Because they are shit.
