"He WAS here Arlene..😮 " 😂🤣
That was hilarious
I love when bystanders mention WWYD with encounters and then surprise! They’re on it
The way she threw those women under the bus 😂😂😂
I don’t think you understand what it means to throw someone under the bus, cus that didn’t happen at any point in this video
@@bribee1346it did happen. I guess you’re familiar with the nuances of the language.
@@bribee1346to throw someone under the bus means that you do something that put the other person at a disadvantage for your own benefit or not. Example: Your friend helps you copy her homework, but you decide to report her for helping you copy her homework. "You threw her under the bus."
Finally a scenario that would actually make sense to play out in a public diner.
Do you think? I still think this is way more likely to happen online. There has only been one time when someone has spoken to me publicly about a business venture (and even then it was in hushed tones) whereas there have been many times where people have sent me something on messenger
Seriously the way this season was going I was expecting it the business plan to involve a hitman and 1million dollar payout then the person going up to other customers there asking what do they think they should do 😂
When people say "Is John Quinones here?" then you know they've failed. The idea is to make it seem believable and not so obvious that people can tell it's the show.
@@Tony_940lmaoooo
"Not to sign away $5,000. You can find a pen yourself for that." Bro mastered the art of passive-aggressive sass. XD
He was here, Arlene!
3:06 "Not to sign away $5000" 💀😂
Is it just me or is wwyd not hitting as well now as the og videos, like its still so entertaining but yk
Why is this episode so short? Feels like a trailer more than an actual episode
No shit, WWYD isn't as good as it used to be.
Becusee it feels fake. People find out about filming and then go there looking for these things. social media has ruined it honestly. It’s not a surprise anymore
@@jayrez7464 How has social media ruined it? By the way, I too do not like social media that much.
I think they're tackling the wrong sort of scenarios. A lot of the recent ones have been scenarios which are more likely to be carried out online than in person whereas in a lot of their older scenarios, they tended to be things that could happen in person. I don't know whether it's to try and raise awareness of issues or just a lack of foresight on behalf of the producers.
that poor girl, she was aging out of foster care and starting from scratch the last time I saw her and now someone is trying to rip her off.
She should have been working at a Foster's Freeze to keep the theme going!
Why is this episode so short? Feels like a trailer more than an actual episode
I think they’re putting the full episode on their website or something. I wish they’d upload the full thing on YT
@@JourneyTheory it's on Disney Plus
@@JourneyTheory can you give me the name of the website 🙂
@@itachiUchiha-kv2hi It’s mentioned in the bio! I think each episode is 40 minutes long or something :)
@@itachiUchiha-kv2hitoo bad it don’t work outside America
Is John Quenious here😂
'You can find a pen yourself for that' 😂
"Is John Quiñones here?" should be reserved for "We rolled one final time"
I work retail. Most scams are aimed towards elders because they don’t know any better or refuse to listen to younger people. Lately especially the catfish/romance scam. Old men have been the main victims. Even when we try to talk some sense into them they don’t want to hear it. I’d like to see a WWYD on that.
I'm closer to 70 than I am to 65. I've had attempts by romance scammers but they didn't get close.
This is a bit rhetorical/tongue in cheek/a joke and a bit not: Is it really a bad thing if millennials and gen z force a wealth transfer from the boomer generation? We keep telling them to not believe everything they read. They keep demonstrating, in large numbers, that they are incapable of that type of critical thinking…..to the point where they tried to stage a coup against the US because an orange weirdo said that mail in ballots couldn’t be trusted. Maybe getting scammed SHOULD be the consequence for not listening to the more information savvy younger generations. The demographics are clear. It is the same people that STILL believe the US election was stolen that consistently fall for these scams.
2:25 her reaction is priceless😂😂😂
If I lived in NJ I’d probably never go out to eat again, you guys are everywhere 😂
Every restaurant in the area will probably be on Just Eat or Deliveroo...
i literally have an obsession with this show
Ditto!
The thumbs up at 1:54 😂😂😂😂
So cute 🥰
I love this show, but I wish they'd try these out in more parts of the country. They only seem to go to like three diffrent states
I actually fell for a scam like this when I was 18. After I bought the first package and then the dude started asking me to buy even more products out of my earnings and said I needed to use that to invest more. Nah I wad out. He would have drained me for every drop. And I met this man randomly at wallmart. I will never fall for it again.
LOVED those three older ladies!! 🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
All I can think about when I see this is the nutriboom scheme from Brooklyn 99
Boom boom
This is just like my mother selling tupperware and jewelry and hammocks. Shes trying to make a pyramid of her pyramid schemes
Most rich people stay rich by spending like the poor and investing without stopping then most poor people stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing like the rich but impressing them
Exactly! My grandparents were so frugal but they had a TON of money on both sides. I remember my grandfather telling me "you want to make money while you sleep." And I guess that attitude passed down to my dad (RIP), because I remember going to his house one day and I had bought something I really liked, so I wanted to show it to him. So I said "Look at this!
Isn't it cute? It was on sale...I saved 50%!" My dad replied "Well, if you're spending, you're not saving." Obviously I had no retort, and that has always stuck with me.
Saving and investing wisely while prioritizing necessities and a few small luxuries in relation to one's total assets is a great approach. It helps ensure financial stability and I my for the enjoyment of life's little pleasures without compromising long-term financial goals. It's all about finding a balance that works for you!
very true, a huge part of my portfolio growth has come during this bear market. I've been able to scale from $180K to $572K in a short period of time.
How do you do that? I'm interested
Thanks to my co-worker (Alex) who suggested
Ms Brenda Leigh Van.
4:20 Lmao no way she just took his phone to look at a headline then just sits down with it and starts using it. I guess when you’re hot you can do whatever you want lol. It’s probably edited where she brings her own phone out but if not she’s something else.
Should of done Illinois, but what's funny is I just watched an episode Kings of Queens on this.
There was an episode of Dragnet about this around 1970.
Just take the old adage to heart....if it looks and sounds to good to be true....well it most likely is worthless 😂
Amazzzing Episode Idea 👏🏼👏🏼
I am sorry to go off topic but that girl playing victim is drop dead gorgeous ! 🥺😍
Always say no to scamming and or frauding. It's never nice to steal.
Multi Level Marketing. Many people do it in other part of the world too
The ladies group is killing it :D The Thumbs up , I might put a couple of $100 in it , I am too old, So cute, those reactions at 2:09 - LMAO
The only way she could be more obvious about this pyramid scheme is if she started doing the "Egyptian" dance
This is good. This is good! Ok, Go to the bathroom. Get him to come back. Ask him if he would do it. Alright let's break it...
Sorry I got a new walkie talkie so just rehearsing! 😊
😂😂😂
I get these requests on Facebook from girls who bullied me in high school and I haven’t spoken to in 15 years lol
Block!
“Is John Quiñones here?” 🤣
😲 *He WAS here Arlene!*
Finally ariane back ❤
They should do one where the actor DOESN’T walk away
When yall coming back to CT? Lol
The way dudes phone gets just grabbed kills me lol
My friend lost a lot in pyramid scheme. On top of that she tried to recruit me. I hate her now, for being stupid ofc.
They definitely asked her to ask the old ladies for their opinion but just cut that scene out lmao
The American Dream? Who Knows what that is any more? They keep moving the Goalposts.
the first old lady didnt heistate😂😂😂😂😅
Babe, wake up, new WWYD just dropped.
Ponytails should be back as a trend! ❤
😂😂
No
Ponytails are disgusting.
@@user-bk9fk2tq2z Yea, people should all be walking around with buzzcuts!
I love the name, Arlene!😍 My grandmother‘s name is Darlene!😍😂
❤ Since this WWYD topic isn’t their best material, let me share that my “friend” recently dared me skinny dip at our local lake, but it turned out to be more of an embarrassing prank. No longer friends! Sorry for my off topic vent. Happy Friday everyone ❤
You go girllll...did right by not being friends anymore...they dont deserve you.
@@siyaaaa24 Thank you ❤️when she took my clothes and left thankfully my grandparents came to help me.
@karatekidakakatelyn8114 not only is it tricking you but going so far as being an asshole to take your clothes. That's not someone you can trust anywhere. Good that you severed ties with that. Life is too short.
You have to start doing scenarios that are only going to play out in public. This is yet another example of something which is almost exclusively happening online, NOT in person (even on a smaller scale).
I remember this dude I used to work at a restaurant with got into some pyramid scheme venture and genuinely believed he was gonna be a millionaire in no time. He tried ropin me in one day and I said “Absolutely not”. That was 10 years ago and shocker… he’s still not a millionaire
I had too look up what a pyramid scheme is haha 🌈 ❤
WWYD we BACK again
Damn, Arlene.
Is John Quiñones here???? 😂😂😂😂
this was filmed very close to where i live omg
my friend is involved with pyramid schemes and is always trying to get me to join. She's always promoting her "businesses" and telling me to use her promo codes, lol.
I love the victim girl. She is so beautiful. Love at first sight ❤️🌹🥰🥹
Mom calling is a step-away kinda call now? I'm not buying it 😅 ... Something's up. If the next table has somebody presenting a story clear enough for the back row at the end of the restaurant, and steps away, what would you do?
These new episodes are wayyyyyyy to short!
College professor 🤣
He is not a college professor, he is a follower of Communism, Socialism, wokeism, and the WEF agenda.
A friend who tries to lure a friend in a scam is no friend at all. If a business deal is too good for words it is just that! Do not accept it! The so called friend belongs in Jail!
in Brazil, we call it "errei, fui William bigode"
He is a college professor
What In the pig tail hell kinda hairdo was the professor sporting 🤣
About thirty years ago, a friend got involved with a phone card business and wanted me to be part of it. I was skeptical about it but I agreed to having a meeting with other potential "investors" at my house. After listening to the person's presentation for five minutes, I raised my hand as if I had a question. I said, " this is a bullshit pyramid scheme and everyone except my friend can GTFO." The look on my friend's face was shock, and everyone left. Later on he finally realized he had been scammed and thanked me before he lost more money.
I fell for a pyramid scheme when i was younger, didn't earn hardly anything on it.
Don't get scammed by friends, get scammed by casinos instead 👍
I’m number 7!!
Does that make me important?
I hope so !!
WWYD come to the West Coast!
One time I did this in high school and I got like half of my school doing it not knowing that it was a scam and the principal called me in and told me I can’t do this and that it’s a scam. Obviously I gave everybody their money back but it’s crazy. My friend’s mom was the one that got me in it. 😳 idk if she knew or not.
This is like that damn Shanann Watts with Thrive all over agaim
"Rome wasn't built in a day" so true. Can't just make instant money (unless u hit the lottery or something).
This not all true! I worked for financial groups which is a pyramid type of business and I did really well! I made over 200k in 3 years and only invested $2,800
Just like everything else in this world, The length and quality of these have gone very far down hill. Bring back the scenarios that brings tears to my eyes please.
Professor at a clown college?
So what was the supposed investment? Something about anemones?
Arlene and the lady that said her name need their own show about people surprising them and they just don't know lmao MAKE IT HAPPEN
Scams scams scams
we need more traci
I had many approach, I don't fall for it.
Long time no see Lauren
The girl "getting scammed" is so beautiful
😂❤
Everyone in Jersey knows him.
Are all future WWYD segments now going straight to UA-cam ??
> NO more tv show ??
...
Haven't seen a new TV episode in a LONG TIME !
“ And you work in FĨNÃNCE”
Gurlfriend with the purple hair is NOT on fleek!
IT HAPPENS IN INDIA ALSO
🥳
*cough cough (cutco)
Too obvious it's a skit
I love the actress playing the victim. Shes so pretty.
Nowadays when I see unsocial things in public I just think its WWYD and ignore it
Last!
$40000 in three weeks would have been possible if our dad was Elon Musk.
Wwyd are not letting the scenarios play out like the use to, they cut the scenes too short so it takes away the fun. We don’t get a chance to watch people reactions and they are not realistic anymore. Too bad.
I ended up paying for someone’s lunch earlier after I saw them struggling with their card unfortunately John never walked out now I want my money back
If that actually happened, that person is NOT obligated to pay you back. Sure, it would be nice if they did but they aren't obligated to pay you back, especially if you both are strangers.
Bleff your heart
I feel like Arianne is one of the few good actresses WWYD have kept. The new one's are just so unrealistic in their acting which makes this season worse (in my opinion).
Do you think women have a crush on John?
It's my birthday I'm 28
