Have you heard of the viral 'Scream Chicken' game on TikTok? It seems to be everywhere right now and it can be embarrassing!

This is definitely one of the more unique phone games I've ever seen. Have you played it? It's a side-scrolling game on TikTok where you control the character by squawking at your phone. Sounds like it might be fun to play at home when you're alone, but out in public? You might get some attention for it. Is this a game you'd like to try?

What Is TikTok's 'Scream Chicken' Game?

This Scream Chicken game is definitely one-of-a-kind. That scream chicken filter is funny. It's a short platformer video game where you control the chicken character by using your voice. How loud your voice is will help determine what the character does. You can make a quiet sound to walk and a loud one to jump. You can make any sound you want to, but if you're not squawking like a chicken while doing it you're definitely doing it wrong.

Naturally, couples are trying it out on TikTok and having some fun doing it. If your partner hasn't asked you yet, heads up: it's probably coming soon. It's one of those things where the worse the person is at playing the more entertaining it is to watch. You can see some examples of people playing the game on TikTok below.

People are even getting creative with what they use to make the noises required for the game. This guy has the right idea! As you can tell, most examples were done in the privacy of their own homes to play the game. If you choose to play it in public, you can see how it might get you some unwanted attention and you'll likely annoy anyone in the area around you. You don't want that.

Have you played this game or would you play this game? It seems like a lot. If you play it make sure to record it so you can share the reaction with your followers and friends, that seems to be the whole point. I don't think I'll be giving this a try (unless my girlfriend wants to). It just seems like too much and I know I wouldn't be any good at it. This isn't my thing. I'm only just getting started on TikTok and wouldn't even know how to find this, honestly. Does that mean I'm old?

Sometimes, fashion just doesn't make sense. I don't choose what's popular, I just have to go along with it. These are 5 of the most questionable fashion trends of 2023.

We were introduced to some strange fashion trends in 2023. Some other fashion trends from the past also made a comeback this year.

I am not a fashionable person. Love me some sweatpants and hoodies. However, if these items are what's in style, then I think I'm perfectly find not being fashionable.

Some strange clothing items became popular in 2023 for a number of different reasons. You can blame TikTok, you can blame Taylor Swift, you can even blame nostalgia. Again, just don't blame me.

I've gone through some photos and videos and have identified 5 questionable fashion trends from 2023. To me, these stood out as the strangest. However, there were much more popular trends that didn't make the list. It's hard when you stick to only five!

Some of the popular trends that didn't make the list this year include Tabi shoes, Y2K, ballet flats, jean maxi skirts, and more, according to Huffpost. Tabi shoes were very polarizing in 2023. They're a split-toed shoe inspired by traditional Japanese work shoes from the 15th century.

It seems like Y2K is popular every year, and this year was no exception. We saw cargo pants, metallic colors, oversized shades, and platform shoes make a big comeback in 2023.

Also, ballet flats were flat out everywhere in 2023. There were tons of options and choices available to buy. You could get them bedazzled, with a bow, silk, suede, corduroy, anything you could possibly want! Seems like they could also pair well with most outfits. It's like the shoe equivalent of the little black dress.

Well, those items didn't make the list of the 5 most questionable fashion trends of 2023. Here's what did make the list.

No-Pants Trend

Going without pants was big in 2023. Sort of reminds me of the trend in the 90s that was pointed out in Seinfeld where women were going without a shirt, only wearing their bra. I prefer to go out with my pants on.

Opera Gloves

Opera gloves were a major fashion choice for celebrities on the red carpet this year. Thankfully, it's just a red carpet thing and people didn't start wearing long opera gloves to work. That would be a strange choice. However, for a formal event they look pretty good. Something sleek and sexy about them. Or is that just me?

Micro Bags

You probably saw a few micro bags this year. Perhaps you even own one. I'm not judging. Everything is getting smaller, and that includes purses, evidently. The days of giant bags are behind us...until they come creeping back.

Fringe

Thanks to celebrities like Harry Styles, fringe was huge this year. You had the funky futuristic fringe and the traditional western fringe in fashion. I don't think I could pull it off, but it would be fun to have those dangling sleeves.

Friendship Bracelets

Friendship bracelets were massive in 2023, and all fingers go towards Taylor Swift for that one. People bought them by the dozen for her concerts and movie. Even I have one. What am I doing??

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
