Stranger Things star Noah Schnapp's coming out announcement made quite a stir last week—and he seems to think it's pretty silly.

Schnapp made the announcement in the most quintessentially Gen-Z way possible—with a super casual TikTok where the sound clip he lip-synced to was more the star of the show than the announcement itself.

Nonetheless, Schnapp's coming out went instantly viral.

So, he and his friends did what Gen Z does best—made a TikTok mocking the whole thing, as seen below.

The video, posted by user @meltyiceycubey, a friend of Schnapp's shows Schnapp hanging with a group of friends while one pal asks for everyone's attention.

Reading from his phone, he said:

"Guys! Noah Schnapp—gay at 18!"

It was phrased as if reading a celebrity death announcement.

Everyone else in the room, including Schnapp himself, immediately lost their minds, yelling "Nooo!"

The video seems like it's probably a reference not only to Schnapp's coming-out furor, but the recent TikTok trend over the holidays where people pranked their elders by announcing the fake death of a celebrity.

Several versions of the prank went mega-viral as people's relatives similarly yelled "Noooo!" to the news of celebrities who are still very much alive dying over the Christmas season.

Mockery seems the perfect follow-up to Schnapp's announcement, in which he lip-synced to another TikTok creator's voice saying:

"You know what it never was? That serious."

Of course, fans felt otherwise—especially since Schnapp's character on Netflix's Stranger Things, Will Byers, had his own heart-rending coming-out journey in the show's most recent season.

Schnapp received an outpouring of love and support and impassioned congratulations for his announcement.

And TikTokers loved this follow-up video just as much.

Here's hoping more gay people can feel this casual and unbothered about their coming out in the future.

Guy Admits His Ignorance After Girlfriend Educates Him On What Really Happens During Menstruation—And He's Horrified

Women's health should be much more common knowledge than it is, but many subjects related to women—especially menstruation, pregnancy, and childbirth—are still considered pretty "taboo" subjects in public spaces, in shared educational spaces, and, of course, among men.

That's why there are so many men like TikToker @connortalkslol who only start finding out what menstruation really is and what the cycle entails when they go looking for the information themselves.

Fed-Up Woman Tearfully Asks For Advice After Neighbor Refuses To Stop Dog From Killing Her Chickens

Having a homestead isn't all cozy videos, cuddly chickens, and freshly baked bread. It comes with hard decisions about animal health and protection, even if that means discussing another animal's life.

Homesteader and TikToker @leathernecklilah had a positive relationship with her neighbor, who owned all of the land around her property, until her neighbor's dog started using her property as its own personal killing station.
