On a similar note/era, some of you might not have seen the most viewed video on YouTube (15 billion view) which is also a very catchy earworm. Interestingly the 2010s were peak YouTube, the top 30 videos on there were all released before 2020.

Wonder if the defendant knows @Gavster’s neighbours?

Surely everyone is aware of Baby Shark? I thought maybe Gangnam Style was up there but it's on just over 5bn views compared to 15bn for Baby Shark. But hey, I'm not bored of Gangnam Style yet.

Of similar agegroup interest to Baby Shark, I saw that Kim Kardashin had been given a necklace with 'Skibidi Toilet' on it by her daughter. Being aware of the Little Big track, Skibidi, I wondered why a child would be so keen on that. Googling Skibidi Toilet sent me down a rabbit hole. My wife tells me that she's aware of primary schools banning kids saying 'Skibidi' because it's so annoying. Impressive viral spread amongst pre-teens.

I had a nervous shudder when they started talking about jurisdiction because one of my neighbour's ongoing arguments is that the court we're in lacks the jurisdiction. He claims we should be in first tier tribunal, and he brings it up at every. single. hearing :? It's really interesting though, how people like that in the video (and same for my neighbour) will enter a courtroom with the mindset that they know more than the judge :lol:

Skibidi toilet is a mindblowing how quickly it took off - it's the first major Generation Alpha trend that's made it into popular culture. Also very impressive how the creator/s behind it saw what was happening and accelerated the complexity of the videos. It went from basically being a very short meme to full-on animated warfare episodes without missing a beat. They probably guessed they were just a lucky viral hit with a limited lifespan so ran with it as quickly as possible.

I love the whole skibidi universe tbh.

Also PPAP coming back from like 5 years ago highlights how depressingly online I am :lol:

O/T for this thread but the first tier tribunal is an alternative property-specific dispute resolution forum; it does not usurp the court's jurisdiction. There can be reasons why someone might choose to use it, and a claim brought in the FTT first is going to mean any court action is postponed, but if you started in court then it's not the wrong jurisdiction - and you can claim costs or other remedies which may not be awarded or even available in the FTT so I'd say it was definitely the right choice.

That’s part of his argument, that the failure to use the tribunal has resulted in (what he believes to be) unfair costs in resolving the situation. However, my solicitor, and each of the judges who’ve heard the case, reach the same conclusion as yourself. Despite all of that, I can guarantee he’ll bring it up again in February :lol:

It's random - why didn't they go for 75? - but it's got a ring to it.
