So, the other day I was scrolling through TikTok, and I kept seeing videos referencing “October 1st.” People were being all mysterious and saying things like, “Are you ready for October 1st?” or “October 1st is gonna be wild.” Honestly, I was so confused, my brain was spinning. What was I missing?
First, I checked the comments, of course. That’s usually where you find the answers, right? But this time, nope. Just more cryptic messages and inside jokes I wasn’t in on. I was feeling super out of the loop.
Then I tried searching “October 1st TikTok” directly on the app. Still, most of the videos were just people talking about October 1st, not explaining what it was. I started to think it was some kind of prank, Some huge inside joke that the whole TikTok world got it except me.
So, I went to Google. I typed in the same thing, “what is october 1st tiktok,” and bam! Finally, some answers. Turns out, there wasn’t one single big event or trend. It was a bunch of smaller things, like:
- Some folks were talking about a specific sound or song that was supposed to be popular on that day.
- Others were referencing a new filter or challenge.
- And then there were the usual seasonal things, like people getting excited about Halloween and fall.
My Final Thought
I realized that “October 1st” on TikTok wasn’t one huge, coordinated thing. It was more like a collection of smaller trends and individual creators doing their own thing. It was really hyped and over statment of a lot of simple small stuffs. I guess that’s the beauty and the chaos of TikTok – you never really know what you’re gonna get! I felt a little silly for getting so worked up about it, but hey, that’s the internet for you.
