Funeral Home Intern Forced to Live in Real World Now that TikTok is Banned

In a shocking turn of events, local funeral home intern Bryce “@MortuaryVibes” Miller has been forced to confront reality after the sudden ban of TikTok. Bryce, who gained modest fame for his embalming dance challenges and “day in the life” funeral home tours, was devastated to find his 2.3 million followers reduced to a single framed certificate of appreciation from his manager.

“I don’t know how to interact with people without captions and trending sounds,” Bryce confessed while aimlessly staring at a casket display. “How do I even explain to someone what I do here without a funny voiceover?”

Bryce’s coworkers have also noted his confusion in real-world settings. “He keeps trying to swipe left on the copier and says, ‘For you page,’ every time the boss walks in,” said funeral director Janice, shaking her head.

Despite his social media void, Bryce has been reassigned to the thrilling task of actually assisting grieving families. “It’s weird,” he admitted. “They want me to listen without lip-syncing. What do I do with my hands?”

Rumor has it Bryce is now lobbying for a new funeral app called “MournTok” to fill the void. Until then, he’ll be adjusting to life as a regular funeral professional.
