“SNL Takes a Hilarious Jab at TikTok Enthusiasts Facing a Potential US Ban”

Longfellow spent three entertaining minutes tackling the “valid reasons” Che provided to rationalize the ban.

“Such as what? Because it’s Chinese? So now we’re just banning things because they originate from China? You know who else originated from China?” Longfellow inquired, gesturing upward. “That’s right, Jesus Christ… I assumed he was Middle Eastern, but I discovered it on a TikTok. Chinese. Jesus Christ was Chinese.”

Regarding the potential that TikTok might be appropriating user data, Longfellow expressed indifference. “Who cares about my data?” he replied. “Oh no, China knows I like thick Latinas. Who doesn’t? Give me a break.”

Longfellow also dismissed the studies claiming that viewing TikTok is “harmful” for users’ minds.

“Ahh, this is dull, I’m uninterested,” Longfellow told Che, gesturing a swipe upwards with his arm.

“I apologize. I have no focus. I have ADHD… I’ll never forget when I was diagnosed. It was last year. I took a TikTok assessment, and on the third attempt, it indicated that I might have ADHD,” he stated, adding that he also received an Adderall prescription from the platform.

Che subsequently asked Longfellow if he was concerned about safeguarding future generations from the hazards of using the social media platform.

However, Longfellow was more concerned about the generations “already lost,” currently struggling without the app, though only temporarily as the app was rapidly reinstated the subsequent day.

“What becomes of us? How do we exist now?” he queried.

Che then pointed out that Longfellow had lived without TikTok for the majority of his life and could simply continue living as he used to.

“I don’t recall how. I know I had a life before TikTok, I must have. But that person is dead. He’s dead and he’s never returning. Without TikTok, I don’t know anything anymore. What do I do at work? What do I even watch during a movie?”

“You watch the movie!” Che responded.

“But during, Che,” Longfellow replied. “When I get bored for like a few seconds.”

“You still watch the movie!” Che insisted.

“I’m relocating to China,” Longfellow concluded.

“SNL” viewers applauded Longfellow’s humorous commentary, with many mentioning they found it relatable, on YouTube.

“What do I watch during a movie truly resonates LMAO because I definitely grab my phone during the tedious parts,” one commented.

“This was filled with jokes man lol. Longfellow’s best update by far,” added another.
