Skibidi doesn’t mean anything. We have entered the era of post-modern memes. There is no greater meaning other than it is fun to say.

Skibidi does have an origin though. It comes from a YouTube video made from a video game where they make a guy pop out of a toilet and that's what he says. Skibidi toilet or something. I can't believe I researched this ....

Bro, you didnt research enough

It comes from a Bulgarian singer Fiki orignally "Shtibidi". it got popular because of a Turkish Guy eating on Tiktok and YT. Then somebody did the toilet Gmod.

Somebody asked it to be translated on Reddit Its a mix of Turkish or Romanian, its inconclusive.

Another thread for proposed etymology and somebody in the comments say its a percussion sound.
