James May reacts to viral Top Gear TikToks! 

Low effort is the bane of anyone who has a brain. Of course May would dislike it.

Samee

Reminds me why he's my favorite of the trio. TikTok is lowest common denominator, Marvel-tier trash, but I don't mind watching James May show complete and utter indifference to it.

@@BurtSampson yh some people are saying how funny it was that they were all terrible: mate all tiktoks are terrible it’s not exactly a surprise.

@@1bigboi_629 you have no choice to like TikTok you doughnut 🍩

No reply yet

I think not only he's not pretending to be happy, he's actually holding himself back from how disappointed and displeased he was. Except for 9:55

Fake happiness seems to be an American thing.

but he fakes disappointment, for comedic purpose or not....

@@TheKenjoje I am 25 and disappointed by the internet so called humor

They are! 💚💚

When you realize they were in the Nissan:

And he says it so fondly.

they were and still are a unit

It was either him or Hammond that said after they left TG that they come as a package.

While YT shorts is genuinely terrible, Instagram at least has an algorithm that'll show you more things you found funny the more you like or interact with said genre of memes. I believe TikTok has something similar.

9:12 will probably be a thing on tiktok lol

came down looking for the comment as soon as he said it , GOLDEN XD

The sheer and unbridled swag in that.

@@BayKaru_ loooool no way 😭

@the bunniboi no he can probably buy all the Ferrari's he wants

And if you read the line before you watched the video you 100% heard it in Jeremy Clarkson's voice.

“I have isopropyl alcohol” The “some people don’t get older” really hit hard though. Remembered some of my high school classmates that never got old enough to graduate. I haven’t kept up with all my old classmates in the years since and statistically some of them are probably younger then me now and i don’t even know.

Maybe “Mayish” is better 😂😂

It's a shame they cut it. Seemed like a legit interesting conversation 👀

He's screaming at himself anyway

He's already watched it.

TikTok is not memes. It's Vine for gen z 🤷‍♂️

Wow I didn't expect to see you here Masako love your vids btw

@@_Professor_Oak I remember Vine. I miss Vine. But at least Gen Z can sample something similar to what we had.

I was just watching TFS funny seeing you here.

MASAKO YOU'RE HERE?!!

I like ur memes Edit : We’ll MemerMan’s comment blew up that fast

That was sigma AF

i heard "takes me million months to earn that" .

Flexing.

I loved that line. A very poetic way to describe mortality.

Yeah richard hammond is just italian now

Honestly I was just thinking he meant they aged well

@@aaronflynndevereux1832 knowing of May's love for being subtle, he meant death or being childish.

@@vinito19 Possibly, or he's talking about Hammond and his hair dye

You make it sound like older people have to try extra to understand tech...guess you don't know where the tech came from in the first place.

he tries, gets disappointed in humanity, and we cannot blame him for that .

​@@mozxz I mean thats a natural part of using the internet

@@psxcsomething6114 Pretty much , yea. Just meeting people in general will make one lose faith in humanity, and everybody is their worst on the Interweb...

@Orion Both are correct, the difference is mine avoids RU-vid's, sometimes draconian censorship algorithms. :-)

Lucy needs to be more creative, everything they do is boring AF

@@Elwaves2925 While understandable regarding draconian TOS regulation - bollocks is the only correct one of the two.

@@Elwaves2925 linking urban dictionary does not mean a miss-spelling that people frequently use is at all correct.. it just shows how many fall for the misconception. I could link a bunch of nonsensical words that have entries on urban dictionary that is no more a testament to their validity than you doing so here. "Bollocks", as is the correct terminology, dates back to as early as the 13th century, originating from the Germanic word for ball. "Bollox" is a miss-spelling of the word used by, primarily American, individuals on the internet who don't know any better. It is an American bastardisation of British slang.

@@Elwaves2925 wow, urban dictionary as your source, completely unironically hahaha

Does he ever talk about cheese trivially? (sorry - like, trivially)

"OH SHUT UP!" -Clarkson

Can he please compare 5 types of pre-sliced supermarket cheese??

agreed

Yes! Definitely.

@@ryomaprime3130 same. This random=funny shtick gets old real fast.

You just descriped youtube a decade ago lol

Indeed it's just dumb humor that's become mainstream and like James said people are posting what they saw on TV as content for others. "It's someone watching another person watch something they saw on television" Tragic really.

@@larsen1298 RU-vid vloggers were bad enough but TikTok takes it way further. It's total mindnumbing garbage.

@@David-ud9ju No they didn´t. it´s still people experimenting with making videos you are watching

That's deep bro

i cackled too much at this statement. LOL

YES!!!

A perfect meme.

It’s the meme that expresses living your life amidst the horrors of whatever.

Tiktok is bad unless you follow the right people

Even if it was amusing I don't think it he actually understand the memes and the video

@@samuelpinder1215 that’s applicable for literally everything 💀

I mean Tik Tok annoys me, and I'm under 30. I sympathize with him

I somehow said the comment in Jeremy's accent😂

Also Tik Tokers do not know how to use punctuation.

@@girlsdrinkfeck Most of them are kids so of course they don't

@@yankis. I mean... they're taught punctuation and grammar at a young age (before teens), unless it goes straight through and out the other ear, they should know it.

This the comment I was looking for lol

Seems to have been removed from the video, I never heard that

so true

I'd say maybe 3% of tik tok is funny and or makes sense

Its unfunny and also just blatant copyright infringement left right and center

@@benediktpagitz3379 how is that the joke?

@@pacmanpakkas gen z considers this a joke

That's the spirit!

The keyword there, is profound. 😂

I agree, but there is a thick layer of irony

The difference is thay 15 years ago swag was someone with a confident, arrogant and in your face aggressive attitude, while now is someone who doesn't care about the opinion of others and does their own thing. James was never the former, but has always been the latter. It's not James that's changed, it's the rest of us.

@@Anankin12 the rise of the sigma men...

Those are meant to be funny??

Young people humor? Most of them aren't funny though xD

I love this because I find some of these pretty funny, but I feel bad for James because he just doesn't get it

How old is considered young?

As a young(tm) person, I would like to distance the humour of my generation as far as possible from tiktok. Yeah, it can be strange and all, but man tiktok is a terrible example. Please don't take Tiktok as the standard of modern humour.

I agree. Maybe Lucy should add those minutes to the actual video.

Yes .. this is not TV. This is RU-vid.

And the wiser, of course.

He features in caves in the Pyrenees... 🤣

Yeah fr. Airpods and using tiktok, he's younger than me and I'm 21

That aging compilation was like him becoming younger

James' dry humour actually appeals to gen z quite a bit

I second that although I am somewhat older than that. I am just 52 and have yet to find a compelling reason to buy my 1st car, or indeed to get a license to drive a car. Publi transport is fine for me and definately cost me less than having a car. I always watched TopGear as a any other entertainment show on tv, just with a car theme. Like Keeping Up Appearances where the theme is trying to appear different than you really are no matter how difficult it becomes - which is not of my mothers favourite shows.

@@mikkelbreiler8916 look into the government paying for owning electric vehicles or hybrids some cars cost less than the reimbursement the government will give you

They've aged beautifully, so much so it actually makes me happy. I've got so much to look forward to and so do they

it's rather a matter of intelligence than age. Unless you are under 12 years old, then indeed it is your age.

Wait what?
