RIP RJ MITTE 🐐 #shorts #comedy #funny
An old interview, then an old music video: al jokes' scrolling character starts wondering why the son from Breaking Bad keeps appearing on his phone.
That pattern is the premise of "RIP RJ MITTE 🐐 #shorts #comedy #funny," a staged comedy sketch about learning of a celebrity death indirectly. Despite the title, the upload is a sketch, not a death announcement.
The on-screen caption establishes the situation before the character catches up. He reads out recommendations featuring Mitte, noticing how far back they go, until recognition interrupts the browsing. There is no news bulletin in the scene, just a feed that suddenly seems to be telling him something.
The Short passed a million views in thirteen hours, running well ahead of al jokes' usual opening pace. Its comment section had also already drawn more than twice the channel's usual full-day total for Shorts, with viewers returning to the sketch's circular premise: discovering something through a joke about discovering it indirectly.
