[00:00] I believe resellers are deserving of no

[00:02] respect and have one of the most

[00:04] shameful professions imaginable. It's

[00:07] one of those things that's like a

[00:08] blemish on your own reputation if it

[00:11] comes out that you're a reseller. That's

[00:13] one of those things where if your family

[00:14] finds out, maybe they stop inviting you

[00:16] over for Thanksgiving. I think it is

[00:18] just so unbelievably cringe, scummy, and

[00:21] pathetic. And I know I've been focusing

[00:23] on like Pokemon scalpers, but I'm just

[00:25] talking about scalpers and resellers in

[00:27] general. It is just so gross, man. And

[00:31] it's so beyond out of control. So, I

[00:34] know this is nothing new and I'm sure a

[00:35] lot of you are familiar, but there is a

[00:37] whole

[00:38] career people are trying to make out of

[00:40] being popcorn bucket resellers. And I'm

[00:44] not jerking your girkin either. This is

[00:46] a very real thing that some delusional,

[00:49] imbecile, loveless losers are actually

[00:53] trying to make their lives work. This is

[00:56] their business. They go and buy out the

[00:59] entire inventory of those limited

[01:01] edition popcorn buckets that come out

[01:03] for big movies in order to flip them

[01:04] online for a profit. And there is one

[01:07] guy who I just found out about that is

[01:09] so unapologetic and proud of it that he

[01:12] films himself going to buy out all of

[01:14] the popcorn buckets inventory from the

[01:17] theaters in order to flip them online.

[01:19] Now, of course, he does he does like to

[01:21] spread his wings here, and he doesn't

[01:23] just marry himself to only popcorn

[01:25] buckets that he scalps. He of course has

[01:27] to dabble in Pokemon because that's just

[01:30] part of the scalper DNA. But I want to

[01:32] show you his popcorn bucket endeavors in

[01:35] particular because this is

[01:36] extraordinarily embarrassing garbage.

[01:43] Uh them Toy Story popcorn buckets. Um

[01:46] how many am I allowed to buy?

[01:49] No. How many have you got? Yeah. What?

[01:51] Can I grab just whatever there is?

[01:53] That's all right.

[01:58] >> It's wild to me how we've reached a

[02:00] point where we actually have to

[02:01] implement buy limits on every single

[02:03] item ever produced because goobers like

[02:06] this exist now where if there's not buy

[02:08] limits, they'll just buy [ __ ] all of

[02:10] it in order to flip online. Even things

[02:12] as simple as squishy fidget toys like

[02:15] needles and [ __ ] People are slitting

[02:17] each other's throats over so that way

[02:19] they can flip them online for a profit

[02:21] with their big markups. And now popcorn

[02:25] buckets in the crosshairs here from the

[02:28] reseller uh plague here. These [ __ ]

[02:31] cockroaches

[02:36] right to get the Buzz Lights from Basu.

[02:44] >> Sweet. Thank you.

[02:47] Perfect.

[02:49] >> Cheers. Do you want free popcorn?

[02:51] >> Oh, okay. This is going to be a [ __ ]

[02:53] nightmare. This is going to go all over

[02:54] my car. Look at the two people behind

[02:56] him watching on in disgust and horror as

[02:59] this guy spends presumably hundreds of

[03:01] dollars to ensure that no one else can

[03:03] get those popcorn buckets. I imagine

[03:05] that they were probably waiting in line

[03:07] and probably were wanting a popcorn

[03:09] bucket here as well considering the look

[03:12] on their faces is just shock and awe.

[03:15] Like what kind of loser they've just

[03:17] bore witness to. It's like a crypted

[03:19] sighting. So I imagine they probably

[03:22] wanted one as well. They're probably

[03:23] there to see Toy Story and now they

[03:25] can't get one cuz this guy just bought

[03:27] them all. But at least he had a heart.

[03:29] At least this saint offered them some

[03:32] free popcorn, which they politely

[03:34] declined, and I fully understand why. I

[03:36] think that's a completely understandable

[03:38] decision to make there. When it comes to

[03:40] getting offered free food or drink from

[03:42] a stranger, probably best not to play

[03:45] with fire. Too many horror stories out

[03:47] there, so why even open that can of

[03:48] worms? Just play it safe. Especially

[03:50] when dealing with resellers. With

[03:52] scalpers, you never know what kind of

[03:55] evil [ __ ] they might be up to. So, I

[03:57] fully get why they'd say no to that

[03:59] offer, but now this dude gets to fill

[04:02] his bags with those precious popcorn

[04:04] buckets.

[04:23] Luckily, he was able to get all of it

[04:24] into his car. Thankfully, I was really

[04:27] praying for him there. And well, it

[04:30] worked. It came through. He was able to

[04:31] get all those popcorn buckets into his

[04:33] vehicle. And now he's got a lot of free

[04:36] popcorn as well.

[04:47] Do you like popcorn?

[04:51] >> Like loads in there.

[04:53] >> Now take the lot of it if you want it.

[04:55] >> Go on. I'll give it to lads.

[04:56] >> Do you want all of it? Yeah.

[04:57] >> Yeah. Yeah, please.

[04:58] >> Have you got a bag?

[04:59] >> I've got a good

[05:01] >> Yeah. At the very least, he found a

[05:04] homeless man to give the popcorn to. So

[05:07] that's positive, right? That's nice.

[05:10] Except here's the thing. I don't trust

[05:13] that because I'm going to show you in

[05:15] another one of his videos where he goes

[05:16] and gets more Buzz Lightyear popcorn

[05:18] buckets. Uh clearing out their inventory

[05:20] yet again. Just this gluttonous [ __ ]

[05:22] maniac here coming through. He does the

[05:25] same thing where he's looking for a

[05:26] homeless person to give that free

[05:27] popcorn to. And then it's the exact same

[05:30] clip as this where it's the same

[05:32] homeless man. It's the exact same clip

[05:34] just repeated again yet on a completely

[05:36] different day of him clearing out the

[05:37] popcorn bucket inventory.

[05:40] So, how does that work? Seems like he's

[05:43] lying about that. He's just playing the

[05:45] same clip again. And who's to say that

[05:47] that's actually a homeless person and

[05:48] not just like a friend of his that he

[05:50] had come through and pick up the popcorn

[05:51] buckets that we get some good boy points

[05:53] online. Like, look at how nice I am.

[05:55] Look at what a benevolent angel I am. I

[05:58] gave a homeless person this free popcorn

[05:59] when I was scalping these popcorn

[06:01] buckets. Can everyone please appreciate

[06:03] the good deed that I've just done? Also,

[06:05] these Buzz Lightyear popcorn buckets I'm

[06:07] selling for €80, by the way. Please get

[06:11] them now. I know crawling over each

[06:13] other like World War Z zombies to get

[06:15] their hands on my overpriced Buzz Light

[06:17] your popcorn buckets.

[06:37] out.

[06:41] >> Got you.

[06:44] >> She's teaching him how to set this up

[06:46] because a she can tell that he is

[06:49] visibly stupid and B, she's under the

[06:52] false pretense that he's buying these to

[06:54] use them. He's not. He's buying these to

[06:57] exploit the scarcity that he's

[06:58] introducing here. That's the That's the

[07:02] MO of all scalpers. Buy as much as you

[07:05] possibly can so that way normal people

[07:06] who actually want them can't get them.

[07:08] So then they engage in the secondary

[07:10] market with these [ __ ] fungal ghouls

[07:13] who are capitalizing off it with this

[07:15] huge markup to line their pockets and

[07:18] take advantage of it. So he's not ever

[07:21] going to use one of these or anything.

[07:23] They're not for him. He's just reselling

[07:26] them. He's just a piece of [ __ ] scumbag.

[07:51] Oh, mate. What the [ __ ]

[08:00] Do you like popcorn?

[08:02] >> Yeah.

[08:02] >> Yeah.

[08:03] >> Wait. Do you want some?

[08:04] >> Yeah, please.

[08:07] >> It's literally

[08:12] >> like loads in there.

[08:14] >> Now take the lot of it if you want it.

[08:16] >> Come on. I'll give it to

[08:17] >> Do you want all of it? Yeah.

[08:18] >> You see what I mean? It's just the exact

[08:20] same clip that he copy and pasted here.

[08:22] So that is fraudulent. I'm assuming that

[08:25] with this popcorn bucket haul, he just

[08:27] threw away the free popcorn. He had that

[08:29] popcorn in his trunk and it wasn't

[08:31] looked like it was fitting. So I imagine

[08:33] he just threw it in the trash just

[08:35] wasting all of that food. Clearly didn't

[08:37] want to show that to the audience. So

[08:38] again, he went back to the old tried

[08:41] andrue, the Elcláico of I gave it to a

[08:44] homeless person. Look, here's the clip

[08:46] even though it's the exact same clip

[08:47] from the other video that he's just

[08:48] repeated. And it can't be from the same

[08:50] day or anything because this time around

[08:52] his popcorn, his free popcorn was in a

[08:54] different bag in the trunk, not in the

[08:56] back seat. So, it's just I don't know

[08:58] who he thought he was fooling with that.

[09:00] But he also probably doesn't care cuz

[09:03] the people that are watching this, it's

[09:04] two people. One, people like me that

[09:06] shoot spitballs at him and believe that

[09:08] everywhere he goes, he should be just

[09:10] had bells rung, like the shame bells,

[09:13] letting people know that there's a

[09:14] scalper coming through, just a stinky

[09:15] degenerate. or two like-minded losers

[09:19] that are watching this and thinking that

[09:21] it's a good business opportunity and

[09:22] like trying to join in and like follow

[09:25] along here so they can try and make a

[09:26] little bit of money flipping [ __ ]

[09:28] Buzz Lightyear popcorn buckets. So, he

[09:30] doesn't really care about like whether

[09:32] or not people know that he threw away

[09:34] popcorn, but he was probably just trying

[09:35] to like cover his own ass just in case.

[09:37] But, it didn't work. It's very clearly a

[09:40] lie here. He didn't give that popcorn to

[09:42] a homeless man in this video. It's the

[09:44] same clip from the other video. Anyway,

[09:46] this [ __ ] sucks. He sucks. Scalpers,

[09:48] resellers, just complete scum. That's

[09:50] really about it.
