So, there I was, precariously balancing my phone on a stack of books, ready to make my grand debut into the world of video blogging. I had all these brilliant ideas swirling in my head, but when I hit record, I completely froze and stared awkwardly at the camera for an eternity—though the reflection of my bewildered face kept me entertained. I finally mustered the courage to speak, only to be interrupted by my cat, Sir Fluffington, who decided that my head was the perfect spot for a nap!
As I nervously tried to squeeze out a coherent thought, Sir Fluffington sprawled out right in front of the camera, blocking my face and unintentionally stealing the show. My deep philosophical insights were reduced to “Look, everyone, a cat!” I could almost hear the sound of the internet collectively facepalming—although my newfound feline co-star couldn’t care less. In the end, I learned it’s hard to be a burgeoning online sensation when your biggest competition is a cat with a knack for lounging.

Reminds me of my dream that my sister was knocking on my bedroom door at midnight. ( she lives 1 state away). She said its me -redacted name- can you let me in. I knew it was not my sister and was horrified watching the door nob jiggle. After that creature starts opening up all the doors in my house trying to find me, then i woke up with my bedroom door open. Scary shit man

Did you brush your teeth?
N
that’s the important thing

I’ve had multiple dreams where my brother/roommate comes into my room and wakes me up, then starts walking towards me and turns into some hellish monstrosity about halfway to my bed. I always kick the creature in the dream at the same time walking up and actually kicking irl. It’s the freakiest shit because it’s like I’m seeing a monster then I blink and it’s gone, otherwise I could still be sleeping. Room looks exactly the same as the dream, the only things that change when I wake are that the monster disappears and my door goes from open to shut. It feels more like a hallucination than a dream at the end.
C
the problem is you did blink. Don’t blink.
R
This is one of those dreams you have that just make you wanna cry but also happy to be alive when you wake up. I’ve had several of that nature. Something supernatural or just crazy that’s coming for you and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Last night I had a dream I beat up Jeffrey Epstine for hitting on my wife then I got scared he would have us killed in return so I started being really nice to him.
L
Dude I loved that!
V
Yeah wtf is that supposed to mean lmao
H
Is this real kids programming or was it conceived for the bit?
D
Real kids programming! The lyrics are kinda nonsense to rhyme and end with “you brush your teeth.”

In case you missed it, four rhymes with door. They didn’t say anything about rhyming with ‘teeth’.

There are none, because that’s not the rhyme scheme used in the song.
W
Teeth in the next verse, idk 🤷🏼♂️
O
This guy songs!

It’s a real video posted in 2019 with 25 million views, but the song itself predates the video in the OP by a long shot.
L
That is Ms. Rachel, and she is in many ways the Mr. Rogers of the 2020’s. Very famous and beloved. Edit: It should be noted that the song itself is a cover of Raffi, who is the Mr. Rogers of all time and space.
F
The song is much older than that though. She’s just singing An old children’s song written to teach children to brush but yeah this video is hilarious.
L
Yes, like I said it’s a Raffi cover.
N
She’s not. She’s trying very hard to be a Mr. Rogers or a Steve Burns but she’s over the top fake and creepy. Low quality, forced children’s programming like hers contributes to children not being able to read emotions.
L
An opinion surely based purely on the quality of her videos and definitely not on certain geopolitical stances she holds. Those suspicions aside, my wife is a professional in child development and Ms. Rachel is one of the only shows she lets our young kids watch. I understand that most experts find her content to be high quality and evidence-based.
N
Evidenced-based science warns against any screen time at all for children so I doubt your post very much. > This study reported that, for every hour of “baby media” that an infant from 8 to 16 months watches, the child knows 6 to 8 fewer words. This effect was very significant with each hour of baby media being associated with a 17-point decrease on the language measure they used (for comparison reading to your child every day was associated with a 7-point increase). https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/2762864

Actually it doesn’t! The 2026 updated AAP recommendations move away from strict screen time bans or limits, for all but the youngest children. > The AAP now prioritizes quality, context and conversation over strict time limits, including no screens before 18 months and one hour of high‑quality content daily for ages 2–5. https://health.choc.org/updated-aap-recommendations-for-screen-time/ Edit: The other poster is doing that thing where they edit their post after I’ve responded, so now mine seems a little disjointed at the beginning. Of course, my kids are not infants and I never said they were.
N
Ms. Rachel is creepy, dumbed down programming for toddlers who’s parents suddenly had to work from home during Covid. She got popular serving as their screen babysitter.

Everytime I am made to watch that video I have to stop myself from screaming, “12:45 is not in the morning! It is the middle of the night! Why are you brushing your teeth in the middle of the night?” Getting up near enough to 4 or 5 a.m. is not weird too start your day. The middle of the night is though.
C
My son likes this song. Instead of “you brush your teeth” I like to sing to him “Go back to sleep”.
F
I only know this jingle because of a song from the grindcore band wecamewithbrokenteeth. https://youtu.be/7LnIS2tQVoU?si=EeXyHuDPKxGACrj7 They have some interesting songs.
G
Damn what a throwback.
F
I love your username
I
When lazy lyrics turn into existential horror.
V
Even though I knew where this was going I still laughed
D
Absolutley love it. Keep going man I’m looking forward seeing you on my fyp
A
I like this. I think it would’ve been even funnier if the alarm clock/door sequence were sped up a bit to build that frantic “oh no” momentum before you bolt to the sink. But the imagery is really cool, and this got a laugh out of me. Knowing where it’s headed is half the fun. The wait to see how you land the final moment totally pays off. 💪
D
Hahahahaa yes!!!! My 16 month old has been watching these, and I said the exact same thing the first time I heard it!
R
At least they didn’t start ringing the doorbell
A
Also they say ‘think you hear’
U
LOL I thought this was funny 😁
T
Haha I had same feeling when I used to play this video to my kid. You put my thoughts into a video.
S
Hilarious 😹 the stuff I have to watch with my kids… this makes it more bearable
H
Translation: Your parents work an hour away, and school is 30 minutes away in the opposite direction. So you have to wake up that early so that they can have enough time to drop you off at school and make it to work on time.
M
“You’d better ~~grit~~ brush those teeth!”
Y
This is great
A
“EPSTEIN!”
B
Hahahhahahahhah love ms Rachel though!!!!!
R
That was very good!
N
OMG this is awesome. After the second, more emphatic, knocking, I’d yell out “I’m brushing as fast as I can!”
M
op you better keep at this ….I’d watch your content
I
I lol’d
