Elite Daily - Daffany Chan • 536d TikTok is all about the challenges, and there are plenty of hilarious ones you can try out with your BFFs and family members. You've probably seen … Read more on elitedaily.com  DEEP DIVEThe TikTok #PassThePhone Challenge has people making pointed comments about their friends and mutually dunking on each other. In this trend, friends pass a phone to each other, saying “I’m gonna pass the phone to someone who…” and then naming something embarrassing their friend has done. This challenge is reminiscent of the “it’s for me” TikTok trend which showed people hurling out semi joking insults at their friends. It also mirrors a style of video where members of a friend group each speculate about which of them will “get the drunkest” that night. At the time of writing, videos associated with the hashtags #PassThePhone and #PassThePhoneChallenge have been viewed over 2 million times on the app.
Tech The "Pass The Phone” challenge, explained. Shutterstock If you're looking for a quick way to end a friendship, Gen Z has the solution you seek. The latest TikTok trend has people introducing their friends by their least appealing qualities and passing the phone to said friend to berate them equally. Basically, TikTok's #PassThePhone challenge is taking over our For You Pages and friendships alike. The concept is simple. You record a clip of yourself saying "I'm going to pass the phone to the person who [insert unsavory thing here]." It can be rude! It can be raunchy! It can a straightforward-ish way to say, "I think the way you are is bad, but I love you regardless." The key is that the person you're passing the phone to doesn't hear what you say about them. Then, they presumably repeat the process: record a clip of themself saying they're going to pass their phone to the person who is the biggest simp. Or the person who is still making whipped coffee a year after the trend has died. Or the person who had to Google what "simp" even means. And surprise! Those can all be about the same person! That's it. That's the whole thing. Please enjoy these friends exposing each other. It's similar to the "who's going to be the drunkest" trend where you each film a confessional-style clip saying who you think is going to get the drunkest at the party. These are best done with theme parties so you can see the drunkest White Claw and the drunkest Mike. It's also reminiscent of the "it's the [passive aggressive commentary on someone else for me" challenge where you exchange digs with another person on camera, going back and forth until the time runs out or you are too destroyed to continue. Unlike the #passthephone challenge, you get to hear the commentary in real time. Is that better? Worse? Equally devastating in a different way? Even if you’re practicing social distancing and don’t have a group of friends to pass the phone to, you can still partake in the #passthephone challenge. Just pass the phone to yourself! After all, who knows you better than you. |
