Don't get me wrong, I stay up too late and watch Tik Tok, too. I understand the struggle, but lets not forget the original, Vine.

Hear me out, I love Tik Tok as much as anyone else, but we must not forget where it started out. Some may say that Tik Tok came from Musical.ly, and they wouldn't be wrong. But where did the idea of Musical.ly come from? The one and only, Vine.

For those that don't remember or know what Vines are, they were seven second videos that were popular back in the early 2010's. These videos may have been very short, but they got the point across and made all of us laugh.

Vine and Tik Tok are similar in the way that they were both created for entertainment and for people to laugh. Nowadays there are stickers that people get from Red Bubble, an online sticker company, that i'm sure everyone has seen on the cases of peoples laptops. But do you see Tik Tok quotes on peoples laptop cases? No. Because Vine is better.

I was In middle school when Vine was popular, and I remember people pulling out their iPod Touches and pulling up vines during lunch and showing their friends the videos. The same thing would happen on the bus rides home, and when we would get home from school. Vine was the original Tik Tok. Some of the original Vine creators are even Tik Tok creators. And I'm not going to lie, yes I have a Tik Tok and yes I am addicted to Tik Tok, but I can't say that I like Tik Tok better than Vine.

If you aren't old enough to remember Vine, I am truly sorry. And I don't know about every one else my age, but I still pull up Vines on YouTube and watch them occasionally and reminisce about the good ol' days.
