This year on TikTok has been a whirlwind of salmon rice bowls [1], victory dances [2], and innovative fashion moments [3], and with every new viral video [4] posted, we had another excuse to keep scrolling on our phones at 3 a.m. Nobody warned us that we were going to fall head over heels in love with a pug's "bones or no bones day" predictions [5] or share a video about mustard and watermelon [6] with basically everyone in our contacts list, but we did. Considering TikTok was the app that lived rent-free in our heads 24/7 this year, we rounded up all the videos that warmed our hearts, made us crack a smile, and inspired us to try something new. From raucous sea shanties to hilarious celebrity impressions [7], relive some of the funniest, most inspiring, and most popular TikTok videos of 2021 here.
