What the hell is pink sauce?
TikTok chef Carly Pia ‘s creation, Pink Sauce, is exactly what it says on the can: Pepto Bismol-colored sauce. For some reason, everyone on the Internet really wanted to try it, and that’s when the Pink Scandal began. People who ordered the sauce quickly discovered that different bottles had different shades of pink, indicating non-standard ingredients. The food label had many spelling errors and stated that there were 444 servings in one jar. Worse, many reported that the Rose Sauce arrived rancid, moldy, or in broken cans.
The sauce is supposedly made from honey, chili, garlic, sunflower oil, and dragon fruit, although some consumers report that it tastes like a ranch. There are no preservatives on the list, so if it’s a milk sauce that’s mailed at 100 degrees, it’s probably not the wisest decision to eat it. Pii apologized on TikTok and promised to make things right. I’m sure she got FDA approval before she started selling it. She had to, right?
TikTok Protein Bores and the Whisper Method
TikTok is like a high school hallway: On a Monday, some guy named Eric could wear his backpack on one shoulder, and by the evening of the same day, only the weirdest assholes are still using both straps… and then it’s all forgotten by Wednesday. Here are two one-shoulder-style TikTok micro-memes:
- ” Protein Boron. “Many people randomly comment on ‘Protein Bor’ on TikTok because of fitness blogger @jamesdoylefitness . The healthy guy often talks about fitness bars in his videos, but since he has an Irish accent, he pronounces the word “protein burs”. It. People just thought it was funny.

The word “groomer” was banned from Twitter
Stupid, horrible jerks are endlessly encouraged when it comes to their bigotry. Their final insult: “groomer”. The term has been around for a while, but until recently it referred to an adult who is actively trying to gain a child’s trust in order to sexually abuse them. However, more recently it has come to mean something like “someone who supports gay or transgender people” or “gay or transgender person” in reference to the aforementioned dumb, horrible assholes. In response, many Reddit communities have banned the use of the word, as has Twitter — or so Twitter claims. Some say they reported the abuse, but no action was taken. In response, users on 4chan’s stupid, horrible asshole forum are trying to start a trend of using the word “Disney” instead of “Groomer”. You don’t have to explain why.

Viral Video of the Week: Men React to Period Pain Simulator
This week’s viral videos show men hooked up to machines that simulate menstrual cramps, and they’re hilarious. Laughing at videos of people in pain predates the words “viral video” to mean anything – what would America’s funniest home videos be if dudes weren’t hit in the head, right? — but period video simulations combine laughter at the pain of others with the encouragement of empathy and understanding between the sexes. I completely understand what women go through when I look at that cute cowboy grimace and this dude’s painful ‘ahhh’. “This guy is a champion bull rider ! This couple tried it, and guess who whined and rapped the loudest? Anyway, check the source for many, many more, I’m a sadist.
