    If buying isn't owning, pirating isn't stealing.
  • @drewrobinson5562
    I love that Segway to the advert. "Putting on skin cream and then burst into flames... Now onto our sponsor of skin creams"
  • @mitchpolley3887
    I remember the first time I saw the "Don't download movies" ad at the cinema... it left more than one person in the audience turning to their neighbour and exclaiming "oh wow you can download movies now??"
  • @rosiejl2798
    Can confirm as an Aussie the anti piracy ads did not discourage us from piracy, if anything it encouraged everyone to look up movies online to download.
  • I f** king loved how unhinged everything is in this bb. It's like everyone involved with it just lost their mind😂😂😂
  • @Nesseight
    The gopher cakes petition has seen more activity just today than it has in five years of existing. When it's finally made into a real product, the cartoon mascot on the TV commercials should be an oddly familiar bearded gopher wearing glasses and speaking in a posh accent.
  • @erukaseven
    Who the fuck is editing this episode, it's fucking amazing. Absolutely unhinged and I love it.
  • @XYGamingRemedyG
    I would 110% download a car. I don't have one, so that'd be great.
  • @chrismurray5846
    I recall around 1989 or 1990 they sold posters that said "This is your brain on drugs" with the eggs in a pan, then "this is your brain on drugs with a side of bacon"
  • Best segue I've ever seen, "Wow people in the past used a lot of creams then died in a house fire... And now a word from our skin cream sponsor!" 😂😂😂
  • @a7734999
    So, internet, how many "Kinder Joy" eggs can we get shipped to Simon in time for Easter?
  • @post_ian94
    This brought me back to the OGBB era. Long intro, insane editing, Danny reminding Simon about the Kinder eggs debacle, just beautiful. 17:39 killed me, this video's editing is truly something else.
  • @legoholic
    The editing and memes in this episode are pure gold! The "You do you" PSA was incredible great job team!
  • @danielreuben1058
    Kill the poor by the Dead Kennedys was a song about a neutron bomb and how the rich could use it to kill the poor to have more room to play. Most, if not all of their songs, were about the government, high school being horrible, and the sheeple just accepting what they're told to do. I've been listening to them for almost 40 years, and their music and lyrics are still astute today.
  • @ZAV1944
    I know that plenty of people would love nothing more to see Barney the Dinosaur treading on a landmine.
  • @dianacarbonate
    I'll never forget the time we were in the movie theater and at the end of that pirating PSA my friend Andreas yelled, "That's bullshit!! I would steal ALL of those things!!" and I swear the whole theater laughed. (Then everybody clapped. JK)
  • @bwines16
    My dad’s response to the “you wouldn’t download a car” campaign was “no. But if my friend said you want a copy of this ‘67 Shelby I wouldn’t hesitate to say yes”.
