Twitter Users Point Out Similarities Between ‘SNL’ Skit And Black Creator’s Viral TikTok
Cleotrapa posted the original video on her TikTok account in September. The video shows the content creator with a whiteboard, just like in the SNL skit, explaining the difference between “you’re” and your.”
@cleotrapa1Your & you’re really make y’all lose sleep at night Aw wtf!!!♬ original sound – Cleotrapa 🧚🏾♀️
“Another one of y’all worst f**king nightmares,” Cleotrapa said. “Look at y’all running away. Stay right there! Stay right there because you need to f**king hear this. You! You! You need to hear this.”
“This your up here is ownership—a possessive adjective. Those are your cookies. That’s when you’re going to use this,” she said. “But this? Y’all have to slow down on this one cause y’all use this one anytime. This means ‘you are.’ This means ‘you are.’ So stop using it whenever you want to use it. How about you say it to yourself first?”
As the creator shows different examples between the two, she asks the viewers whether they believe the apostrophe is a decoration, further explaining that it breaks down two separate words.
The video has accumulated over 1 million views with almost 270K likes and 10K comments. Although the original creator hasn’t spoken out about the similarities between her video and the SNL skit, she has been retweeting tweets to support the claims.
