TikTokTikTok users have started a new \u2018cult\u2019 with the new \u2018wake me up dog\u2019 trend, but what is it all about? Here\u2019s what you need to know. Whether it\u2019s through a video or comment, TikTok is full of different trends for users to hop on. The majority of these use a sound or video clip that users can share with everyone. Though, that\u2019s not all. TikTokers have been joining \u2018cults\u2019 over the last few years, but it\u2019s not as scary as it might sound. These \u2018cults\u2019 are, instead, just a way of identifying somebody that you might be interested in following because they have similar interests as you. Over the last few years, we\u2019ve seen the likes of the Minion cult and Scream cult, where users adopt either a universal profile photo or spam video comment sections with one particular comment. Now, there is a new one that users are attaching themselves to \u2013 the wake me up dog cult. What is TikTok\u2019s \u2018Wake me up dog\u2019 cult? That\u2019s right, in the last few days, you may have noticed the \u2018wake me up dog\u2019 cult spreading across your For You Page and comment section. This \u2018cult\u2019 stems from a post made in mid-October by peanut_2323, where they got their dog to \u2018sing\u2019 the classic Avicii song Wake Me Up using a third-party app. The video, of course, went viral. Now, TikTokers are using an image of the dog wearing a Santa hat as their profile photos and commenting \u201cWake me up when it\u2019s all over\u201d whenever they see another use from the \u2018cult\u2019 in the comments section. As we\u2019ve seen without \u2018cults\u2019, these trends usually last a few weeks before TikTokers move on to something else. Though, given how cute the dog is, we wouldn\u2019t be shocked to see users still using the profile photo beyond the end of the trend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the \u2018wake me up dog\u2019 cult on TikTok?
