The end bit....absolute gold. Solid gold. I have never been nor will likely ever have the opportunity to set foot in a Poundland due to location, but I truly salute them, and hope the tweet was shared in record numbers!
I don't live in UK so I have never visited Poundland but after all these Ashens videos I have always wanted to visit Poundland and buy some cheap 'funny' gifts for everyone I love (and hate). :D
cujoedaman Maybe they live in a part of Britain where the Poundlands are in sketchy neighborhoods? Or they live in a country where there is not on-the-cheap Wal*Mart-like store that sells items of variable quality? Dunno. I'd probably end up going to a Dollar General myself if it came to that, not that I usually go to one.
+hidefanlovely Eh, Wendy's got stale fast (ironic, considering fast food is immortal). At least Poundland is calculated in their weaponised responses; only acting in defence and doing so in a matter of passive aggressiveness that encapsulates British society.
they're both quite fitting. wendy's is like a smarmy teenager who's always making sarcasm every minute of the day. while poundland is an aged brit with this dry and callous wit that they bust out with rare but perfect timing
Skashe fair enough, my brother works in Aldi, and said that's what it was, but he also lies and jokes a lot so nobody can ever fully be sure if it's true lol
Meanwhile on the oppsoite side of things, barcode colour can matter too. Black obviously gets picked up well, but other colours can work. Except red. So when Safeway decided to colour code the barcodes to their cream, blue for double, green for whipping, purple for clotted and red for single, it became a pain in the arse to scan the buggers in. Eventually all the cashiers ended up memorising the numbers and just typing them in.
I bought an extendable fork with my first wage packet, at Borders. Should have waited another 13 years, it was 9 bloody quid (no wonder they closed down).
Fun special. Pretty cool to see "Poundland" actually respond to a tweet that seemed to have one of dumbest comparisons to date. Have to give them props there. Also those "Tool Pens" made me think of stuff from "Little Tykes", "Playschool", and "Fisher-Price". Poundland always has the greatest cheap tat. :D
I have to admit that for a long time I thought that symbol meant 'dishwasher safe' and because of that I have ruined couple of good looking mugs and some other dishes. :/
I've been marathoning these Poundland specials and I don't get the feeling Ashens "hates" Poundland. He just thinks of it as a charming little nephew whom he takes the piss out of, but *woe betide* anyone else who thinks they can do the same.
Hi Stu.....my father worked in retail along time ago and your vids make me think of him a lot. He passed away in 2014 and I can remember just before he died he told me a story! I paid him a visit on uk Father’s Day and he said I have something very important to tell you. I looked at him with a confused gawp on my face when he took a small wooden box from under the pillow on his armchair. What was in this box? I’d never seen it before in the 43 years I’ve been here? I used to go searching the house when I was younger but I’d never come across this before in my life!? He started to fill up and said to me in a deep somber voice....”son....this is for you!..I don’t have long left with you on this earth but whatever happens to me, this is my legacy to you. I give you the source of my wisdom which has been passed down through my fathers fathers and generations before. This will help you love, choose, decide and most importantly...understand!” I was enthralled at this point and hung on every word he uttered. He went on..”Son..I’m so proud of you! I could not have wished for a more complete seed to live the name on in our history” he started to cry and the tears ran down both mine and his cheeks! I took the box and 2 days later he passed away peacefully in his sleep. The devastating news of my fathers demise was a hard letter to deliver but being the only son I felt it was my duty. A couple of days after the funeral I was clearing my dads clothes and I found the box. I opened it and inside was a small bit of paper folded up. I looked at the paper with glazed eyes and unfolded it. It pencil was written the word......”pissflap”..........obviously he was an absolute Gonk! Nevermind! I was adopted anyway! Stay lucky you name sharer! 👍🏻🐎
I have watched almost every video you’ve made and I need to say the commentary in this is perfect. The pound land story is great and from San Diego I am saluting the brand. How cool and astute to fire back so eloquent and condescending. Loved it. Keep up the great work. If I’m ever in London I’ll buy the first round.
Respect to Austin Cooke/Poundland for calling out ThamesLink’s bullshit in such a respectful while destructive manner, even backing himself up with references. Can we just give ThamesLink’s rail contract to Poundland already? It’ll be lovely to get reasonable service for cheap on the train again.
This many years later and still trains in England haven't got any better 😔 As a train fanatic from England the bit at the end hits deep and I don't even live anywhere in London (it's not just those guys that have this sort of service)
If he used 60fps we'd most likely see his lights flickering since the UK's power runs at 50hz(aka a cycle of power hits the lights and illuminates it 50 times per second) and they would be out of sync.
Giant barcodes are implemented for easier scanning at the tills, easier scanning = less time scanning = less queues = less staff required at once, another money saving technique so everything in poundland stays a pound
In the Chester Poundland, an old lady walked into the large store front window and split her head open, blood EVERYWHERE. The staff looked after her and cleaned up the blood. She was ok thank God, even managed to buy what she went in for. Top notch.
DirtRich I am super happy she is ok but just imagining a old lady saying "I may have cracked my skull but god dammit it if I don't get my bag of chip" is infinitely funny to me
Either that or the image of Poundland staff propping up a bleeding, possibly concussed woman down the aisles while throwing all the expensive stuff in her basket, then hustling her through the checkout and loading her and her tat in to her car for a nice safe drive home! XD
Stuart, have you seen the Kinder eggs with the very good Jurassic World toys. They look great. You can even look at their new app. It's been a little since you last did Kinders, and it's Jurassic Park's 25th.
I haven't watched an Ashens video since, what, 2014? Still as great as ever. It's really comforting to know that not everything I enjoyed in the past has changed completely or is gone.
that old Whitehall joke...''for my darling wife on Valentine's day, Roses are Red, Violets are blue, Valentine's day is just consumerist bullshit, now don't you have some ironing to do?''
Given the choice of Poundland cooking chocolate and using ThamesLink services, well, it's a no brainer, chocolate, cos I live up north where ThamesLink has no jurisdiction... :P

Eli would have to be modular with different packages of noodles and flavoring. Ashens would have his amassed collection of Bars vs Hens trophies which are actually just poundland tat with different labels. Barry would have some sorta cooking theme and a can of those spicy peanuts with exchangeable face plates signifying surprise, confusion, more confusion, laughter, crying. Paul will have some sorta fucking old laptop with XXX written on it to look like the ghostbusters logo and his figure looking around nervously.
I have a friend with a tattoo of barb wire around the base of his tiggywinkle. I would take the sole tattoo, personally. And I'd have to be insanely drunk for that.
@@krashd Why? And a barb wire? That's the most cliché thing. Interestingly enough, if you're a transgender man and have phalloplasty, they take a piece of your arm and make an implant, and the graft can have tattoos on it so you'd have a tattooed weener.
Dear Ashens, You're awesome. After this video made me crank up so many times, and after all the time I've spent on this channel and with You on Sequelisers, I just wanted to thank You.
This was about people's dads? I thought this was a holiday to commemorate Father Poundland, the Saint of People Who Buy Cheap Gifts For Their Loved Ones.
I'm in the US and couldn't stop laughing at how epic Poundland was in their response. They have earned my business whenever I'm in a place they're available.
As a person who eats cooking chocolate like candy and hates ferrero rocher, I can definitely say they can be compared. One's delicious, the other is overexpensive shit.
YES! And Sainsbury's/Tesco "value" brands are excellent, the former being made *In France* - home of INCREDIBLE chocolatiers. And also, the darker the better I find, up to around 80% cocoa - *and Dairy Milk SHITE should be banned* - why are the British SO addicted to SHIT products?
I now have the mental picture of Mrs. Doyle bringing out a pyramid of Poundland cooking chocolate bars for those visiting bishops instead of the Ferrero Rocher...
I have a friend who's been job hopping for about a year having been through about 5 jobs, but at the moment they're working at Poundland and they honestly describe it as the best place they've ever worked.
llamasandanime the American mothers day is celebrated on the international mothers day, the same as most other countries. The British mothers day is mothering sunday which was actually an old church festival and originally nothing to do with your own mother, it just mutated into that over time. Keep quiet about this though, most British people are unaware of the international mothers day, and we don't want our mums thinking they can have 2 special days...
I think it’s ridiculous. UK should celebrate it whenever most of the other countries are celebrating it! My mum makes us celebrate both mothers days for reasons I can’t fathom why
As someone with tattoos on his arms and chest I would rather have my fingernails pulled out than have the sole of my foot tattooed. Slapping the sole of the foot with wood is actually a legitimate and effective torture. It would be unbelievable agony. 😮👍

sirkowski I didn't know you were on UA-cam!
the giant barcode thing is to make it quicker to scan, it's literally just convenience reasons, I've heard
It really is. I work in a Lidl and the giant barcodes are a godsend when you need to be quick on scanning items.
Skashe fair enough, my brother works in Aldi, and said that's what it was, but he also lies and jokes a lot so nobody can ever fully be sure if it's true lol
Heard Ashens say that, hit CTRL+f, instantly typed barcode, enter and here you are.
this is the reason exactly. also if you go to some shops. aldi for example they will have a barcode on all sides of a box so you don't have to find it
Meanwhile on the oppsoite side of things, barcode colour can matter too. Black obviously gets picked up well, but other colours can work.
Except red. So when Safeway decided to colour code the barcodes to their cream, blue for double, green for whipping, purple for clotted and red for single, it became a pain in the arse to scan the buggers in. Eventually all the cashiers ended up memorising the numbers and just typing them in.
I bought one of the telescopic forks ages ago but it was sold as a back scratcher, oh Poundland

Why do I get a JD vibe from Heathers
"Eat Out.. Mums gonna like that one!" DEAD
That message from Poundland was simply amazing
ThamesLink couldn't even fucking spell their tweet correctly all the way through.
Probably too shaken up from that amazing Pounding

I'm not sure this government could give a contract to anyone as competent as Poundland. Not unless there was a giant opportunity for embezzlement.
Jesus Christ, Mr. Cooke. That was necessarily brutal.
I gave my dad a copy of Attack of the Flickering Skeletons for father's day
Thank you for being the father I've never had, Stuart.
The giant barcodes are something Aldi came up with to speed up their cashiers, and I guess other stores are copying it now.
Also barcodes on (almost) every surface. The cashiers can just grab and swipe without looking or fumbling it will work, GREATLY speeds up service.
makomk giant barcodes are a godsend honestly.

The 50fps really enhances the Ashens experience
Wish it was 1080p49
You're crazy - 50fps is 2013 news - 60fps+ is where it's at now.
unlokia video only allows 720p50 and 1080p50, odd that it's not 60...
Eh? I have LOTS of videos on my channel which were shot 1080p60 and display in that, also.
If he used 60fps we'd most likely see his lights flickering since the UK's power runs at 50hz(aka a cycle of power hits the lights and illuminates it 50 times per second) and they would be out of sync.

I have a friend who's been job hopping for about a year having been through about 5 jobs, but at the moment they're working at Poundland and they honestly describe it as the best place they've ever worked.
I must say this video is louder than normal but still great
BraveMicrobe38 helps if you watch in the shower.
I'm not even British and I would shop at poundland for life
Happy Father's Day Ashens!! ^.^
He really said "I'mma end this man's whole carreer!"
Unexpected shaun of the dead quote was unexpected! :D
Standing O for Austin Cooke...Bravo...Amazing.
My friend, I missed you.
It's been a long week, indeed.
This is one of the very few people on UA-cam that often makes me laugh xD
Why are British and American mother's day on two different days, but father's day is the same day for both countries?
That IS strange.
llamasandanime the American mothers day is celebrated on the international mothers day, the same as most other countries. The British mothers day is mothering sunday which was actually an old church festival and originally nothing to do with your own mother, it just mutated into that over time. Keep quiet about this though, most British people are unaware of the international mothers day, and we don't want our mums thinking they can have 2 special days...
Because the holidays are corporate money-making events and brands need to recover to be able to suck the most money out of people
I think it’s ridiculous. UK should celebrate it whenever most of the other countries are celebrating it!
My mum makes us celebrate both mothers days for reasons I can’t fathom why
Anyanka hi Why should we? Difference is good and despite the celebrations significant evolution, the extra history is pleasant.
That's an assault fork if I ever saw one.
Thameslink got SOLID OOFD
Love your videos. I love the fact you review items and have some banter in the process
As someone with tattoos on his arms and chest I would rather have my fingernails pulled out than have the sole of my foot tattooed. Slapping the sole of the foot with wood is actually a legitimate and effective torture. It would be unbelievable agony. 😮👍
SteelScooter I have the bottom of my foot tattooed, not actually that bad. Similar feeling as the knee sensation-wise.
It's such an adorable idea.
I presumed that the tattoo artist friend of Ashens denied the requests because of the risk of infection.
some people really like that kind of pain. I'll pass.
Ick. Feet. I'd prefer if people don't call attention to them. I've heard some people get off on foot torture. That's really weird.
Adrastia those toes, hand em over
