What does "sksksk" mean?

“Sksksk” is a social media phrase used to express laughter, excitement or intense emotion in a playful or exaggerated way. 

“Sksksk” started with younger social media users, especially on TikTok and Instagram, and is tied to certain online communities, like the VSCO girls. The VSCO girl trend, all about carefree, beachy, eco-friendly vibes, adopted “sksksk” as part of their lingo and that’s how it became synonymous with fun and hyper.

“Sksksk” means nothing but it sounds like rapid keyboard smashing so it’s over-the-top excitement or laughter. Think of it as a virtual giggle but way more chaotic. It’s the sound you make when you’re trying to hold it in but can’t or when you’re so hyped you’re speechless.
