The explanation for everything
Dialogue
Overview
This is a 4-panel satirical webcomic. Panel 1 shows a simple pink cartoon character sitting calmly on the edge of a wooden dock above blue water. Panel 2: a red lobster pops out of the water, addressing the pink character and asking if they want to learn something neat. Panel 3: the lobster states that modern social media makes adults think like 12-year-olds, while the pink character looks slightly confused with a sweat drop on its head. Panel 4: a close-up of the pink character, looking tired and dead-eyed, simply responds with the word "Skibidi". The joke works because "Skibidi" refers to the viral Skibidi Toilet trend, a piece of internet culture heavily associated with preteen audiences, so the adult character immediately using the term proves the lobster's point about social media leading adults to adopt childish youth slang and behavior.
