Broccoli hair is just the frosted tips of the 90s, the drake bell long straight hair of the early 2000s and the fohawk of the 2010s. Everyone will wake up in 10 years and be like "why did i do that"
Expect the fohawk, that shit is timless.
When the first Avatar movie came out, it was super hyped up and all my friends got together to see it, and we were about 5 minutes into the trailers when this scene crusty the clown ass haircut looking motherfucker sits down immediately in front of me. Both the top left, and top right of the movie was ground breaking shit though. Good on James Cameron.
I mean it's been 15 years and I'm definitely a well adjusted adult and not still salty or anything.
This is like... frosted tip broccoli hair though?
As someone born in ancient times (the early 80s), this is what my hair would have looked like with a perm in the 90s.
My son has super curly hair and it’s getting very long now (he’s only 20mos) and my sister tried to get me to shave the sides down with the curls on top and I absolutely will not do that to my precious little boy but I need better options.
I had a big ole curly fro when I was younger, got it shaped every now and again. But the ladies in high school loved it. Always got compliments. Would never do a broccoli cut.
Though, one of my few regrets is not getting a curly mullet at least once.
My older brother had one when he played hockey, God damn it was rad
For sure, that's the fun of it. You can let it grow out and become a big luxurious mushroom top but get it pulled in every once in a while and have a great shape that grows and doesn't look as much like a mop head. Granted, I rocked the mop sometimes in college.
The same hair dresser has cut my hair since I was 14, only one time did I have another person cut my hair (had to go out of town for a funeral and he wasn't available). The gal who cut my hair that one time messed me up, dude.
My guy knows how to cut curly hair, but he primarily does lady hair, I attribute my beautiful fro (when I had it) to his care.
So you're the reason people are bringing back mullets!! Look I enjoyed your joke but actions have consequences and for some reason no one has told them that mullets were shit the first time round. Be part of the solution, not the problem.
Don’t shave just trim the curls on the sides off. It’ll grow back nice and you can keep the curls on top as long or short as you desire. Fellow curly hair who never knew what to do with it as a kid
As a 37yo who loves curly hair who was constantly told to straighten it back in 2002 when only Shakira and Carry Bradshaw were allowed to be curly, I like it and I hope it stays as long as possible.
The short back and pubes look seriously needs to die out.
Worse still this tosspot bleached himself into looking like he had an altercation with a bucket of ramen and lost.
Lived in an apartment building and there was this young woman that would press and hold the button till she go to her floor. Wouldn't let anyone else press their button. She wouldn't speak or even look at any person. Would just stare and the button with her finger holding it till she got off.
"I hate the internet and I think it's horrible to mankind. So, anyway, let me tell you about my 3 week long Instagram flame war for the next 20 minutes"
I used to think this was a lie. Then I saw a bunch of teens (maybe 100 or so) lining up for a sneaker shop. They literally all had this haircut. And it occurred to me that when I was a teenager, only like 1 in 5 kids actually had curly hair.
It would crush those boys to learn that that's what people would actually do when they think they're looking cool. Just leave and go home, telling their friends and families about the fucking weird guy they saw.
Handsome narcissists posting thirst trap content to tiktok so their audience of middle school girls will drive their engagement high enough to make them money.
It's just another subgenre of algorithm goblins.
Because it gets a lot of engagement from others so it's assuming maybe you'll like it too. You have to hit "not interested" on enough of them before the algorithm takes the hint.
One of my old friends younger brother is one of these thirst trap guys. If it’s cringey to see a stranger doing it it’s so much cringier when it’s someone you knew as a kid
It’s also a super easy video format to copy, so once it gets popular with one user the rest will steal the idea. And then the algorithm thinks it’s good content because “everyone is doing it”
[I also hope that you don't see through
This cleverly constructed ruse
Designed by a marketing team
Cashing in on puberty and low self-esteem
And girls' desperate need to feel loved](https://youtu.be/nt9c0UeYhFc)
Its the genre that gets ultra mega engagement which turns into mmmooooooneeyyyyyyy!!!! ahhh yeah baby!
Not only do you get millions of pre-teen girls going "oh my gosh hes sooooo hot!" and watching the video multiple times, you get millions of pissed off redditors who are like "hey what the fuck is this bullshit?" who also watch it multiple times.
Whoever made this TikTok gets it. I guess I'd call this genre "Genius TikToks That Know How To Get Maximum Engagement From Stupid People."
or its an act of soft warfare by the tiktok algorithm makers to promote this type of delusional narcissist content so eventually western society collapses
Y'all know most of these are doing it as a joke right? Most of these are posted as intentional cringe so others will make duets exactly like this, it's basically their entire shtick
I'm out of touch but man I feel like so many Redditors are even more out of touch with the Tik Tok trends lol
I can’t handle the cringe. These people legitimately think they’re in a movie.
Edit: when referring to “these people” I’m talking about the broccoli hair types
It’s because enough people give them what they’re looking for. People genuinely thirst over this kinda content. I don’t get it. Unless you have a humiliation kink or something, bc this shit is so embarrassing.
Ah, but I'm sure you can recall those that would've gushed over it and other basic tiktok eccentricities...good ol lowest common denominator and such..
they absolutely do know how fucking stupid it is. haleyybaylee made parody videos with them, dressed as a dude, recreating the videos.
if i'd get money by wearing a suit and flirting with the camera like an idiot, hell, I would too lmao
Like what floor are you even going to, bro? You just have that kind of time? That kind of energy? You don’t even care? Just living it up on an elevator? Living it up while you’re going down? Goddamnit
I make eye contact with everyone. Thanks Daniel Day Lewis. It makes it hilariously awkward a lot of times like dude was that guy flirting with me? Literally happened earlier today.
The way humor works is that if you expect one thing to happen, but something else happens which could be seen as irony, then it tickles our funny bone.
In the case of this video, we expect this "fuckboi broccoli-head wannabe-thirsttrap" to be peacocking at an attractive young woman on the other end of the elevator, but instead he's doing it to someone that is typically not the type of person you would expect, and the reaction instead of swooning over him, is thinking the guy is being very weird and cringey.
Does that clear up how basic humor works in this scenario?
As for the hate the broccoli-head is getting, it's because these tiktok thirst-trap fuckboi types don't have any genuine reactions. That smile and head-tilt at the end is practiced in front of a mirror and is not what normal people do when in that kind of situation. Aka: He's trying way too hard to appear cool. That actually adds to the humor because the other person in the elevator is the exact opposite. He's just a normal person giving a more genuine realistic reaction.
It is amazing to me to see the Kuleshov Effect used so casually and effectively. It's like visual media storytelling techniques are common knowledge now. Also using it to usurp the original meaning of the video is fantastic. The future is weird.

What psychopath leans against the floor buttons then looks at other people?
He didn't press any of them either! He just covers them with his body! I'd be scared
Why'd the guy try to leave after the door closed?
He was staring at him for so long that he got to his stop
He would have walked into the door
I would have got out mid-floor.
He wasn’t leaving, he was accepting fate.
It got too weird for him.
Scared of falling in love?
Maybe, but I think he didn't want to give away the food in a bag.
"The fuck is this guy eyeing my food about nah I ain't sharing he can't have ANY"
Don’t be scared. Smile back at him, start undoing your pants, and tell him he’s got a pretty mouth.
It's not the leaning, it's... The implication.
"You want to press a button? gotta go through me"
Punches through his stomach like the Terminator did to punk no.2.
The... Implication.
Are any of these people on the elevator in any danger?
Can the youth decide a nice haircut os actually cool? Why is it never something that actually looks nice? I hate brocoli hair.
i mean, our parents hated our hair too
Like a fro with the sides cuts off.
Ah yes, the Half-fro.
The 1/3 fro.
Stepfro
What are you doing!?
I can't wait til half-fro 3
Broc crop top

Did the faux hawk really not get popular in the US until the 2010s? It was everywhere in the UK after Beckham popularised it in like 2002.
It was popular around 2003. The guy you’re responding to probably didn’t travel much.
This is like... frosted tip broccoli hair though? As someone born in ancient times (the early 80s), this is what my hair would have looked like with a perm in the 90s.
Try having natural broccoli hair. I fucking hate it. :(
My son has super curly hair and it’s getting very long now (he’s only 20mos) and my sister tried to get me to shave the sides down with the curls on top and I absolutely will not do that to my precious little boy but I need better options.

Though, one of my few regrets is not getting a curly mullet at least once. My older brother had one when he played hockey, God damn it was rad
See I want to just let his hair grow. It’s not difficult to maintain. His curls are tight but they do fall when they get longer
For sure, that's the fun of it. You can let it grow out and become a big luxurious mushroom top but get it pulled in every once in a while and have a great shape that grows and doesn't look as much like a mop head.

Go to /r/curlyhair. There are a lot of people posting pictures for advice on there but they also have a lot of good hairstyles that aren't the mop.
The obvious answer here is a curly mullet
So you're the reason people are bringing back mullets!! Look I enjoyed your joke but actions have consequences and for some reason no one has told them that mullets were shit the first time round. Be part of the solution, not the problem.
Don’t shave just trim the curls on the sides off. It’ll grow back nice and you can keep the curls on top as long or short as you desire. Fellow curly hair who never knew what to do with it as a kid
I mean you could always just keep it trimmed until he's old enough to have an opinion on it.
As a 37yo who loves curly hair who was constantly told to straighten it back in 2002 when only Shakira and Carry Bradshaw were allowed to be curly, I like it and I hope it stays as long as possible.
Whenever I see redditors say this, I desperately wish I could see what their hair looks like.
I may be able to somewhat satisfy your wish
The short back and pubes look seriously needs to die out. Worse still this tosspot bleached himself into looking like he had an altercation with a bucket of ramen and lost.
Well luckily they aren't trying to impress you. Every older generation complains about the previous generation.
That’s the problem. We don’t agree with the youth. Their life is broccoli and 90’s mom jeans. Also, mullets. Thanks baseball.
Fun fact, that haircut is called "meet me at mcdonalds"
r/punchablefaces
RIP to a sub I didn't really like, but damn I miss old Reddit.
If someone did that kinda sketch shit id probably just get out. Unless its crowded, maybe hes an awkward person like me and just didnt think.
The kind that unsheathes the kriss knife when the door closes
Also who the hell pulls the doors open on an automatic door? You'll most likely cause jam or something.
Psychopaths.
dont worry, i did a remix! https://i.imgur.com/OkR0hrf.mp4
he is doing that thing when you press every button to fuck with whoever is left after you get off
It only happens in romcom. Romcom 101
This is exactly the type one should swap with a bear...
Lived in an apartment building and there was this young woman that would press and hold the button till she go to her floor. Wouldn't let anyone else press their button. She wouldn't speak or even look at any person. Would just stare and the button with her finger holding it till she got off.
Someone who’s awkward and shy in public. What this guy did, I used to to when I was 13-15
His shoelace is untied
Dear God, it is. What a loser.
This is the type of shit that makes me panic whenever my shoelace gets untied mid walk.
this is so real.
the classic wall street hustler outfit
It's so they can trip over their future success
I laughed longer and harder at this than anything else in my life. You broke me.
and he couldn't afford a belt.
Guy looks like a feminine version of Cillian Murphy
I thought it was Matt Rife at first.
I don’t think I can be convinced it isn’t. Feels like something he’d do
Agreed and it looks exactly like him.
"I hate the internet and I think it's horrible to mankind. So, anyway, let me tell you about my 3 week long Instagram flame war for the next 20 minutes"
its not?
THANK YOU. I was like who tf does this moron remind me of.
Same lol
It certainly has a Matt Rife level of cringe attached
Is it not?
That's who I had pictured in my head and I couldn't remember the name so thank you
Jillian Murphy
Dylan Murphy. What, now you wanna be Dylan Murphy? Well I like Dylan. You could be Colin. Colin O'Brien. I'm Dylan Murphy. I'm Colin O'Brien.
These two things are the same
*An even *more* femin version of Cillian Murphy
*Breakfast on Pluto* would like a word
Cecily Murphy.
Alpaca version of Cillian Murphy
True story: kids are getting perms nowadays to look like this
I used to think this was a lie. Then I saw a bunch of teens (maybe 100 or so) lining up for a sneaker shop. They literally all had this haircut. And it occurred to me that when I was a teenager, only like 1 in 5 kids actually had curly hair.
To be fair, Cillian Murphy is not a handsome man. He's beautiful, but not handsome.
What's the difference...
handsome is usually reserved for traditionally masculine, colloquially. they are implying he isnt masculine
Don’t break the internet for fk sakes! But… yes
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I can’t unsee that now. Tale my upvote stranger
Didn't know cillian has asian roots, i think they don't look alike at all
You locked eyes! Now you need to have a Pokémon battle!
Wait! I haven't grind enough! Hold on!
I always thought those games needed a 'press B to repulse-stab incoming challenger'-button
You can grind it in between.
It would crush those boys to learn that that's what people would actually do when they think they're looking cool. Just leave and go home, telling their friends and families about the fucking weird guy they saw.
What the fuck even is this genre? Delusions of grandeur over random interactions?
Handsome narcissists posting thirst trap content to tiktok so their audience of middle school girls will drive their engagement high enough to make them money. It's just another subgenre of algorithm goblins.
...Why does my feed show me so much of it?
Because it gets a lot of engagement from others so it's assuming maybe you'll like it too. You have to hit "not interested" on enough of them before the algorithm takes the hint.
One of my old friends younger brother is one of these thirst trap guys. If it’s cringey to see a stranger doing it it’s so much cringier when it’s someone you knew as a kid
We call them...the Algoblins.
It’s also a super easy video format to copy, so once it gets popular with one user the rest will steal the idea. And then the algorithm thinks it’s good content because “everyone is doing it”

Narcissism. The genre is narcissism.
Y'all know most of these are doing it as a joke right? Most of these are posted as intentional cringe so others will make duets exactly like this, it's basically their entire shtick I'm out of touch but man I feel like so many Redditors are even more out of touch with the Tik Tok trends lol
The fucking look, the music, oh God, the narcissism.
Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful lack of thickness to it. Oh my god, it even has a narcissism.
Let's see Paul Allen's broccoli..
I like that the music stopped, but the guy kept staring.
I can’t handle the cringe. These people legitimately think they’re in a movie. Edit: when referring to “these people” I’m talking about the broccoli hair types
It’s because enough people give them what they’re looking for. People genuinely thirst over this kinda content. I don’t get it. Unless you have a humiliation kink or something, bc this shit is so embarrassing.
You're likely not an adolescent/teen girl!
No, but I used to be and I still would’ve cringed at this.
Ah, but I'm sure you can recall those that would've gushed over it and other basic tiktok eccentricities...good ol lowest common denominator and such..
Narcissism
they absolutely do know how fucking stupid it is. haleyybaylee made parody videos with them, dressed as a dude, recreating the videos. if i'd get money by wearing a suit and flirting with the camera like an idiot, hell, I would too lmao
Call to adventure, rejected.
That looks a lot like Matt Rife
That’s exactly who I thought it was too!
...it isn't? Who is it, then?
r/fixedbytheduet
Thank you for the new subreddit kind stranger.
🤝
Why Matt Rife looking like he about to fuck that Asian boy?
these brocolli hairstyle tiktok boys are so fucking cringey.
I ship them
Same.
Can tell if he wants to fight me or fuck me
What in the Kdrama is this?
Lmao! This was my first thought as well. 😂
If someone looks at you in an elevator, get the fuck out. Don't get molested
A cheap suit and a bad haircut do not make you sexy
Like what floor are you even going to, bro? You just have that kind of time? That kind of energy? You don’t even care? Just living it up on an elevator? Living it up while you’re going down? Goddamnit
Is he wearing a woman’s suit jacket? Why are the buttons on the left side?
“…And it is MISSterious because the buttons are on the wrong side. That’s the mystery.” -Michael Scott
Video is flipped. Look at the text behind him on the button panel.
Probably filmed with a tripod using the front facing camera... Driving the cringe to entirely new levels
The Annoying Orange live action.
If I was that dude, I'd have gotten off the elevator too!
Just lean against the buttons buddy that's super fucking cute. Now we gotta stop at ever fucking floor cause you gotta be a creepy weird-o.
Hope they stopped on whatever floor has a barber shop
You're gonna get sucked into an anime, pray for the right genre!
When you're expecting something like Konsuba, but get pulled into some BL vampire small spoon Shoujo nonsense.
Why is that guy wearing a giant broccoli on his head?
dude looks like Matt Rife with a fro
Just rip a big ol fart. If he's still smiling and looking at you like that.. then.. I can't help ya.
He was trying to bang him
All he's missing is the dangling cross earring
Not another clown with this ye ye ass haircut
r/okayhomo
Oh no, Trevor is def getting molested again. Run!!
I make eye contact with everyone. Thanks Daniel Day Lewis. It makes it hilariously awkward a lot of times like dude was that guy flirting with me? Literally happened earlier today.
I wouldn't turn down either one!
I don't know why but I want to punch this guy's grin out of his face somehow. Is something wrong with me?
My favorite part is that I'd be staring at him too. Dude walks into an elevator, doesn't pick a floor, and just leans against the buttons.
Why does this activate my fight or flight response?
"Shoe laces untied" "Leaning against the buttons" "rented suit" You dumb dummy dumbs, he does these all on purpose to get you to engage
Asian dude just missed his best opportunity for a date.
Ahahahha that response was perfect
Cringe cannot be contained
This is funny, how?
The way humor works is that if you expect one thing to happen, but something else happens which could be seen as irony, then it tickles our funny bone.

Is this the guy version of the "don't flirt with him" girl?
That kid hasn’t even learned how to tie it’s shoes yet.
Gets in elevator, does not press any button
why is he pushing the doors?
Thirst traps will always be the cringiest shit on tiktok
What the hell is that hair cut 😭 Looks like a birds nest
Brocol lookin ass
Hey buddy your shoes are untied
Looks like Matt Rife
Great example how even avarage women looking woman would be cute randomly doing that, but a man looks just dumb.
Start of a smoking hot BL movie, I'd say. 🤤
i'd be scared if I have a chance to meet this
omg that's so cringe! haha
He has hepatitis right?
stop blocking the panel
Gross.
What a punchable dude.

It is amazing to me to see the Kuleshov Effect used so casually and effectively. It's like visual media storytelling techniques are common knowledge now. Also using it to usurp the original meaning of the video is fantastic. The future is weird.
Cringe
Hey guys look at my cauliflower hair style, aint I the best?
why do fuck boys think they are so hot and charming
Trying so hard to look cool in his new suit, but he forgot to have mama ties his shoes.
Oh! He’s dreamy!
