    This has nothing to do with the topic of the video, but I'm excited and I want to share!
    I have a sensory processing disorder that makes it very difficult for me to be in loud, crowded places. I recently started at a new school and made some friends. Said friends invited me to go roller blading this weekend, and even gave me a heads up that it would be loud. They offered to step outside with me if I needed a break. I'm gonna cry, this is the nicest thing I've ever experienced!

    Thanks to my knowledge of coding/scripting, I know exactly why this question was made. (Reason below)
    It was probably supposed to ask ‘Are you [variable] years or older?’ but the variable was deleted for some reason or never even existed. This could be caused by faulty code or loopholes that the user had used to get out of imputing an age.

    12:30 Just take a moment to dissect this package. It says "American", yet above it is the flag of Spain. The label reads "English French Toast", on a RUSSIAN FLAG BACKGROUND. The provided image fails to depict anything close to French toast, instead reading "Pizza" and providing a concept that almost makes pineapple on pizza sound appetizing. The bottom-right label reads "Made in China". And on top of it all, from what I can see, whatever's in that package doesn't even seem to be actual freaking French toast!

    lmao so funny thing here
    That first one is a novelty desert. Boob ice cream. It's an ice cream that is served in rubber balloon that vaguely resembles a tit. You eat it by biting off the tip, and sucking the ice cream out
    They just translate it very directly
    In Japanese, ice cream is just called "Ice" though they got the boob part right.
    It's real just look up "oppai ice cream"
    So this wasn't really engrish, thats pretty much what the name says.
    As for the last one, it's a university potato served with ice cream. So not entirely wrong. University potato is just what they call sweet potato, or candied yams.
    It's sweet potato ice cream if you wanted to give a useful translation.
    I do not have an answer for their policy on payment, because I can't see what it was translated from, but I'm assuming this is very wrong. I hope anyways, because if that is correct it's sexist and very weird
