Brainrot Quiz: Find Out What the Internet Has Done to Your Brain

1. Someone says 'no cap, that's bussin fr fr.' Your reaction?

I said it first, actually.

I get it, I just don't say it myself.

I had to Google two of those words.

Slang was better in 2013. Just saying.

2. What does your For You Page / algorithm mostly serve you?

Unhinged memes, niche drama, and content that would concern my family.

A healthy mix of funny stuff, recipes, and the occasional cat video.

Old YouTube compilations and throwback content.

I don't really have one. I go outside.

3. A new trend goes viral overnight. What do you do?

I already knew about it three days ago and I'm already over it.

I watch a few videos, laugh, and move on.

I participate ironically, then feel weird about it.

My friend has to explain it to me two weeks later.

4. How do you feel about the phrase 'main character energy'?

I use it unironically and I am the main character.

I get it, it's a bit cringe but kind of fun.

I use it so ironically that it loops back to sincere.

What does that mean exactly?

5. Pick the platform that best describes your online home.

TikTok or X/Twitter — I live in the chaos.

Instagram or YouTube — I like content but on my terms.

Tumblr or old Reddit — the golden age platforms.

I mostly just text people. Is that an app?

6. Someone tells you to 'touch grass.' How do you respond?

I post about it and make it a bit.

Fair point, but I'll do it after one more scroll.

I already touched grass today, thanks.

Grass? I haven't left my desk since Tuesday.

7. What's your honest reaction when you hear the word 'rizz'?

I have unspoken rizz. Obviously.

I chuckle and use it occasionally without shame.

It's funny because it sounds ridiculous and I love that.

Is that a new word? I thought it was a typo.

8. You're at a party. Someone makes a niche internet reference. You:

Finish the reference and add three more layers to it.

Laugh along because you kind of get it.

Counter with a Vine reference from 2016.

Smile politely and wonder what everyone is talking about.

9. Which sentence would you most likely say out loud in real life?

'That's so real, it's giving everything, no notes.'

'Okay that's actually hilarious, I'm sending this to everyone.'

'This is funny but nothing will ever top the Shrek meme era.'

'I don't really get it but you all seem excited so that's nice.'

10. How do you feel about sincerity on the internet?

Sincerity is cringe. Everything must be wrapped in irony.

I post sincerely and I don't care what anyone thinks.

I like when people are genuine online, it's refreshing.

I barely post so I haven't thought about it much.
