0:00 imagine they like check out this sustainable garage door exactly exactly yeah exactly watch it roll [Music] down how do you guys feel about sustainable products I think um what does that mean it's I think it's it's such a yeah I think it's AET tool that gets me like I buy these poopy bags for the dogs that are sustainable but it's still plastic like every other plastic bag what makes sustainable I have no idea and it's not like I'm going to research it so they so I pay an extra $2 so there's maybe they're just more biodegradable where they'll like that's what they say but I don't I have I don't have the tools or the knowledge you didn't do a controlled experiment where you see I don't have a Ab test biodegrade in front of you no I don't yeah what what is a sustainable product is sustainable for the uh

0:50 environment yeah that's what it's meant to be it's meant to be a thing where like uh it doesn't create like waste in that way I mean I I know the difference between a composable and like so depending on what how composable it is there'll be like a there'll be like a a triangle and then a number to it oh yeah and then each of those determine like it's like how much it could be composted like how yeah like degradable this plastic is or whatever I think I like unsustainable products more yeah me too they work better they're more sturdy cuzz nowadays they're making like composable like plastic this word you're saying composable I think it's compostable I it's compostable I can't read bro like

1:40 it's you can comp what's the vice president's name uh Mr Kos Kamas K you say's Good's great K hares so there's so there's these um there's this small company called Yona and they make a card board bed what wow and uh it's for homeless people some weird it's not it's for people like us that enjoy sustainable products it's for yoga ladies I don't want to be homeless why would I buy homeless Furniture it's a cardboard bed and for some freaking reason every time they post something about it and they they post a lot of content about their bed everyone hates I thought it was is it like one of those inside jokes with with the Instagram I think it might be does it just look ridiculous get it gets AIT

2:30 ated by comments every s and like even I've commented with with our account being like I don't know why I don't understand the hate and they're like yeah what the hell's going on before you show us the bed does it look like a piece of ████ bed in my opinion yes it does it does it does so I think that's probably what it is right design design everybody everybody looks at it and they go this looks like a ████ bed and then it's sustainable so it's like ████ this bed it's even worse now I think that's what people are thinking it maybe I don't know let me have to log into my ████ oh wait let me just find this video Yona sustainable cardboard I'm trying to picture it in my head what would a cardboard I just see a bunch of cardboard boxes stacked up until it turns into a mattress just think of car it looks whack it looks like a honeycomb out a cardboard no way it's comfy dude yeah you're breaking your back on that

3:20 thing it um yeah it looks like a cardboard bed off our cardboard bed with us and yep you have me right I said cardboard bed this bed is from from y That's ████ whack that looks like the packaging materials it's not like all the this is a joke is this is this like $1,500 the cardboard into each other um I was sick of having a heavy bed frame or having something that's really cheap looking that's cheap looking bro it doesn't get cheaper looking honestly really enjoyed setting it up well she's only saying that cuz she got a $2,000 Grand deal oh so it's a bed frame oh it's a cardboard bed frame it's looks like she took it looks like she went to Costco and took everything out and used all the cardboard for ████ oh it's a cardboard bed do you know what the price point is on this that's ████ whack

4:10 that looks like a ████ egg Craig for ████ okay wait any of you had that I would clown on you dude if I stub my toe on that the whole ████ bed frame is going to yeah but like no way you're being sustainable people would be like yo sick no I think they missed the point because I think sustainable is dope if it's like for something that's not temporary I mean for that is temporary when you buy a bed frame you're trying to keep it for like 10 years or 20 years or whatever bro you're not clapping she a queen a queen bed from yono's 159 it's all frames it's super cheap so bed frames bro go to ████ Ikea dude I have a metal one that I bought for 100 bucks yeah exactly that's ████ whack I got a metal one that cardboard box one that's just more than a Home Depot cardboard box for moving they got to soup it up they can't just look like carboard box and they just can't soup it up because it's meant to be temp imagine

5:00 they like check out this sustainable garage door exactly exactly yeah exactly watch it roll down that's why when Nick's buying dog poop bags it works like a dog poop bag yeah yeah exactly yeah dude if I picked up my dog poop and it melted in my hand then I'd be like you know what ████ these bags but sustainable toilet paper dog poop bag like any toothpick like one time use that's cooles me but like who the ████ wants a sustainable like bed frame you guys sounds ridiculous guess what's not sustainable brother these ████ things you're filming all this ████ on so I don't know what you're doing you guys you guys want to see it's a snake eting yeah so silly so recently the reason that this popped up in my my mind again is because they every time they post a video it's like people talking ████ and they really they

5:51 really walked into this one why don't they ████ do a focus group or something before they launch so the bed has a weight limit of 7,000 ,000 lb and that's really impressive 7,000 and then they came out with this video and it just ████ broke the internet 7,000 lb oh no brother what what this is the king siiz one they got a bigger one look at the comments dude what does it say I can't read it yeah I can't wait let me find it um so it's a good thing she only weighs $6,000 found oh ████ oh that's ████ up weight limit wasn't on the box they just figured it out ████ that's ████ up dude oh my God and and it's crazy cuz

6:44 this company yaa they're very active so they respond to like all of these really they they're actually they're actually feeding the trolls Jesus chist and they're actually responding to like everything some say keep those dirty ████ diabetes ankles away from Jesus Christ somebody said like whole whole lot of trust in a piece of cardboard and they said more on the design that makes it durable really like they're just they answer everything so they is it like a they they do they respond like a bot or how many times can I piss the bed before I need a new one good oh ████ so they're not selling mattresses it's just bed frame it's just a bed frame yeah oh sh this is what Ecommerce gets too wild bro cuz like people could just ████ make anything and sell it you know like and now they have their own marketing so it's like okay let's just make this product let's

7:34 see if it does well and then everyone just s████ on I wish I knew what their Target demographic is exactly it's scary because I feel like now that they have such a troll Community they can't post anything like that might kill the company bro like it's going to if you're if you bought one and you tag them and they repost your video you're going to get so roasted we should get one you guys I think if they can like Pur that material to something else like shred it as ████ recycled material like a TV stand I don't know but to to make it funny I think you can regain the the brand to make it funny yeah yeah and and if you repurpose it for something I don't know what I don't know what it is but come out more funny do you know if this is an Australian bra based brand I don't know if it's Australian why

8:24 Australian cuz I feel like Australian folks are super into like sustainability and like I feel like a lot of the products that they make are all about that oh you know what if you made this maybe like a um you made it a a sustainable planner you open it up you and then you fill each hole with soil and they could be different little like plants see that's a good idea actually like you repurpose the whole thing aide and then you could plant the whole thing into soil and maybe and maybe the soil will and The Roots will disintegrate the cardboard over time but doesn't cardboard rot well sometimes you want that as fertilizer oh so their cardboard definitely is treated so that it doesn't uh like you can get it wet oh cool so you could pee on it you could pee on it yeah on it so probably like five or six times before I have to get a new one I don't know if that's actually sustainable because I think they have to seal it with

9:14 plastic you think it's plastic these little no well they mix cuz you know the cardboard right it's not all paper like how do you think it bonds together oh they use plastic let's read it I know they they do something to the but like we use coconut oil you could probably cut that thing up pieces and make like you know or if you sell it to like people that like to do riots it's easy to carry when it's collapsible then when you get to the riot Center you can expand it and then light it on the riot Center maybe for camping that the riot location I like that camping that makes more sense oh yeah that's the ground a little bit it's actually a better thing it's like yeah that's way better but you still to bring the mattress sleeping bag s you still got to bring your queen siiz mattress say it's 100% recyclable and 100% carbon neutral whoopy ████ I don't know what the

10:04 ████ those things mean yeah see that's the thing is like the sustainability has to be the bonus it can't be the whole ████ carbon neutral it can't be why you have your your house has to look like ████ right why you look like yo you know what be good if this company makes a bunch of useless cardboard ████ like hey come get these sustainable Ramen bowls yeah and then you can't even ████ use it cuz it just soaks up the bow and it makes it's like it's like the paper straws and ████ like that it's ████ those guys yeah but it sucks I hate them I end up wasting way more than I would with the plastic straw and it's actually you still line the inside with plastic do they really you have to right yeah it says that they're it's so stupid they're industrial strength cardboard with moisture resistance but it doesn't say what how that this ████ I I hope this F goes away soon I'm pretty sick I feel

10:54 like if you have a dog that dog is going to tear up your ████ bed dude dude they're going to rip that ████ up my cat will go you go watch a movie you come back brother if your dog is a chewer it's over pets love cardboard they rip that ████ up dude they do for some reason my cat bites it yeah it's it's a fun time I think if they repurpose I think they can do something with the materials that they bought I think if their marketing kind of embraced the humor of it more because they know they're getting smoked y they could turn it's unfortunate cuz I I mean what do they do though how dumb is this ████ all right what were we thinking we built our whole business off of this isn't that crazy we have Angel Investors over the funniest guy at your community oh my yeah who knows so bad
