TikTok.
ADHD in app form.
Kids these days use it
for everything,
from making jokes
to sharing stories,
and now even political activism.
But now a new viral TikTok
has some people wondering
if there should be a limit.
How much is social media a part
of some kids' lives?
Well, in the case of the
teenagers you're about to meet,
the answer would seem to be,
it's essential.
They were involved
in a car crash,
and almost immediately posted
a video
on the popular app TikTok.
TV REPORTER:
Believe it or not, these teens
are recording the aftermath
of a bad car accident
that happened
only moments earlier.
You can see
the cracked windshield,
and then they got camera ready,
making a video that they posted
on the popular TikTok app,
lip-syncing while waiting
for police.
What this shows is where young
people have their priority.
-Yes. -That they thought
it was more of a priority
to make a video.
Okay, I'm just gonna say this
straight up.
This is how you know you don't
have immigrant parents.
(laughter)
Because if you crash
your parent's car
and your parent is an immigrant,
forget making a TikTok,
you'll be writing your will.
Like, immigrant parents are the
only ones who would show up
to that crash and be like,
"Did my son survive?"
Be like, "Luckily, he's fine."
"Unluckily, he's fine, huh?"
But, I mean, I guess
this is just what kids
in the social media
generation do.
Like, there's no situation
that they don't think of turning
into viral content.
Like, if the movie Taken
came out now,
Liam Neeson's daughter
would probably
be making a TikTok
under that bed.
Yeah. She'd be like,
♪ You had a bad day ♪
♪ You had a bad day ♪
♪ It's going real bad. ♪
(laughter)
All right,
speaking of car wrecks,
the Trump administration.
Every day it feels like
President Trump says something
that causes outrage.
He's called countries in Africa
shit holes.
He's declared that he's in love
with Kim Jong-un.
And last week, he said he was
way cuter than Baby Yoda,
which is insane.
But sometimes
it's easy to forget
that while Trump
is loudly offending people,
his administration is quietly
affecting people.
Nearly 700,000 Americans
are now in jeopardy
of losing
their food stamp benefits
under a new Trump
administration regulation.
The new regulation makes it
more difficult for states
to waive a requirement
that able-bodied adults without
children
work at least 20 hours
per week.
It's part of the Trump
administration's efforts
to cut the supplemental
nutrition program,
otherwise knows as SNAP.
The administration says
the new rule aims
to encourage those receiving
SNAP to get a job.
Okay, this is just horrible,
man.
You're gonna cut food stamps
to people, and you're saying
it's because you want to
inspire them to get jobs?
Like, that's only going to make
it harder to get a job.
How are you supposed to make
a good impression
at an interview
if you're hungry? Huh?
The person's gonna be like,
"So, uh, why do you want
this job?"
"Uh, because I need to eat,
bitch."
(laughter)
And, also, to do this
during the holidays,
you know, like, that is
so heartless from Trump.
Sometimes I think
Trump's worldview
is twisted to everyone else.
Like, I bet when Trump watched
101 Dalmatians,
it was a sad movie about a woman
who couldn't get a coat.
And you know what
I also find interesting,
honestly,
what I find interesting,
is that you always
have politicians
who take services away
from poor people
because they claim it will
inspire them to become better.
But then when it comes
to big corporations,
all of a sudden
their attitude changes to,
"We have to help out these oil
companies and these farmers.
They need our support."
And you're like,
well, what about poor people?
"Yeah, I guess we could
give poor people
to the oil companies. Let's try.
Yeah, we could try it.
Right, and finally, if this news
has you worried
about losing your food stamps
and you just want
to stock up in case,
well, there's a new food
that will keep for a while.
A new type of apple is
hitting supermarkets this week,
and if you buy some,
they might still be good
for next year's
holiday apple pie.
The Cosmic Crisp
reportedly could keep
for more than a year
in storage.
The apple is a cross
between the Enterprise
and Honeycrisp apples,
and it apparently gives them
a higher shelf life
while still holding
their naturally sweet flavor,
and they are resistant
to browning.
Okay, what?
They invented a new apple
that can last for a year?
Why do we even need new apples?
There are already
too many apples, okay?
We got so many apples out there,
we need white people
to pick them.
That's too many.
(laughter and applause)
We don't need fancy new apples
that don't go bad.
You know what we need?
We need fancy new oranges
that know how
to peel themselves.
That's what they need to invent.
Yeah, 'cause the ones
we have now,
by the time
you're done peeling them,
your fingers look like
you strangled Ernie to death.
(laughter)
And an orange isn't even
that great as a fruit.
I mean, half of it
is just that white stuff
you're trying not to eat.
You know how
I know oranges are shit?
They're named orange.
It's just a color. Yeah.
Someone took a bite,
and they were like,
"You don't deserve an identity."
So we don't need new apples.
We need new oranges.
And, yeah, that's right. I just
compared apples and oranges.
Everybody said
it couldn't be done,
but I just did it.
