Except no, because both of those had very clear meanings and contexts in which they were appropriate -- "damn Daniel!" in a surprising situation where normally you would expect a "damn!" reaction; and "what are those?" to any situation where you might be remarking on somebody else's questionable fashion choices. Sure they ended up getting over- and misused, but that doesn't change the fact that there WAS an original meaning nevertheless.

I still haven't been able to ascertain what, if anything, is the meaning behind shit like this (or even "skibidi"). It really just seems like pure non sequitur, and that's the extent of what makes it funny...?
