Product placement
Coca-Cola: APPEARS - a refrigerator door logo. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
Powerade: APPEARS - a refrigerator door logo. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
Monster Energy: ACTS - the creator holds up a can of Monster Energy. Removing it would change what happens in the video, as it is the punchline of the joke. The creator says they found their name on a different can, implying it's on the Monster can.
