Relax, no one is banning Tikok

Over the weekend… Tik Tok was hanging by a thread.  President Trump stood ready to shut it down…because of the possible security risk.  Kids were posting farewell videos.   At this point… it looks like Microsoft will buy Tik Tok… and turn it into a red blooded All American app… and thank goodness. If Tik Tok went away… where would our kids go to learn about the hashtag eye bleach challenge.  Exactly what it sounds like.  You put bleach in your eye. If they shut down Tik Tok.. how would the hashtag fire challenge spread like wildfire.  That’s the one where you douse yourself in flammable liquid …and yeah.  You got it. If Tik Tok was shut down .. our youth might never discover the hashtag … Penny Challenge.  That’s the one where you plug a phone charger into the wall.  And then slip a penny between the outlet and the charger.  You get fireworks… scorch the wall and risk electrocution. If Tik Tok was banned.  I’m not seeing a downside.  Nobody’s coming up with a vaccine or curing cancer on Tik Tok.   But  truth is… if it was banned… somebody’d come up with a replacement app.   Cuz you can’t cure stupid.
