The computer thing was dumb only for the reason. WTF is wrong with the grandpa paying for the computer. The point thing was dumb. Also it was laughable how they tried to make a windows pc so bad. lol Also the price was a joke apple was always more expensive by twice.
"Jeremy, the surgery was a success. You can now live a normal life." "What surgery?" "Oh, just a little bit of a head injury, it might be sore the next few days. Hey, the guys at the office dropped you off a card!" "Thanks, doc. The office, huh? Weird, it feels like forever ago, I guess I've been here a while..." *Holly comes in* "Hi jerm-...uh... Jeremy! I brought some meatloaf!" "Ah, Holly! I love your meatloaf, you know, I always had this quote about the meatloaf of your significant other, or mother, being the best meatloaf... If only I could remember where from?" (before the surgery he signed a contract saying no one could mention his past career, and spent all his donation money on the Dr Shmoixen, now known as Dr Terry, to make sure the surgery and name change was a success. It cost so much because Dr Shmoixen was like "seriously? Terry? Not even a cool name like Marcus or Matt?" he only convinced him because he said Terry was a better name than Jacob)
@@JacobKinsley but holly calls him jeramy? She just single handily fucked the entire operation, it’s gonna be a domino chain until the voices in his head he calls chat come back to torment him…
I wonder if Jerma would do a live action Infomercial joke stream, like he's the greasy tele-salesman, maybe get some fellow streamers on as guests. I feel like that's the kind of thing he'd go for.
ooo just like that improve skit that they do on Whose Line is it Anyway, where they give Colin and Ryan random objects and they have to try to sell it. That is SOOO up Jermas ally.
I can't imagine coming to a backyard grill party and being served salmon and shrimp stir fry that sounds so off putting I much rather have a hamburger or a hotdog only things I'd feel comfortable eating after they've been cooked out doors.
Can you imagine spending days, even weeks planning a massive barbecue for like, your dead son’s birthday, and these two random assholes just decide “Hey your shit sucks check out what we got” and start unloading like twenty grills to start making salmon and shit.
Lmfao that’s such a hyper-specific event. Do people really have memorial gatherings on dead people’s birthdays? Maybe my family just never had many friends
LISTEN *NANCY* TAKE A LOOK AT THE ROCKETCHEF *NANCY* WATCH HOW IT CHOPS UP THESE CUCUMBERS *NANCY* ARE YOU SEEING THIS *NANCY* HERE TAKE A BITE OF THIS DELICIOUS PASTE *NANCY* IT TASTES AMAZING RIGHT *NANCY*
Pay very close attention at 1:19:56 to how hilarious Kathy’s reaction is. She says “Mmm that’s good” with a disgusted face, sort of half heartedly chews on it once or twice then never again, shaking her head behind her back. She nods to hide the fact she’s not eating it. Then just before the camera pans away she reaches for the bowl in front of her to spit it out.
It's like whoever designed it has a criminal past that he's desperately running from, trying to offload the dirty money to some poor clueless grandma that just wants a chance to go on that cruise and retire in Florida.
@@spencykings3182 lol I imagine it'll just be them giving away a free rocket chef + extras worth say $40 and they've sold a million units. Meaning they've given away 40 mil. That's my guess anyway bro.
The manufacturers of the Red Devil Grill™ must be held accountable for the 4.4 trillion lives which came to their tragic end due to their DANGEROUS as-seen-on-TV product.
I had to look into the Red Devil just from how absurd it sounded. It really was that hot. You could light the grill via the air intake tube which really could hit 750F (399C) which was hot enough destroy the PLASTIC base that held the burner onto the tripod.
I looked at one of the recall articles, and somebody reported THIRD-DEGREE BURNS, yet the article states that "no injuries were reported" Like bitch, third-degree is when YOUR SKIN STARTS COMING OFF.
I'm still 100% convinced the guy from the Rocketchef commercial was coked up out of his mind. Wouldn't surprise me if the womans name wasn't even Nancy, but they just went with it out of fear he might get ticked off.
Jerma had such visceral fear when he saw that infomercial, it's like he was seeing into the mirror into the dark version of himself and realised this was his fate
I really wish he'd buy the Cathy Mitchell's Ramen Joy cookbook and make the meals on stream. Four whole hours with nothing but ramen based dishes and desserts. The longer he endures it (cooking and tasting his monstrous creations), the more Cathy points he gets. At 100 points, Cathy Mitchell will personally pay for all of the ramen and gift 500 subs.
When jerma finally realised Cathy didn't write the cookbook and she's just a paid actor made to advertise the book under her name, he'll puke it all up and take back everything he praised about it
Unfortunately the cookbook itself is pretty hard to find nowadays. It’s unknown what happened, possibly legal issues. I think there’s a copycat book but the original with Cathy’s branding is actually nearly lost media- if not partially- to my knowledge. Pretty crazy!
My grandpa never complains about modern technology or how kids are nowadays, it’s just always meatloaf. Not enough meatloaf, not enough means to make meatloaf. At least not like the good days anyway.
That is the whole point of the commercial. You associate Apple with positive feelings and fake memories instead of a very expensive computer that does not run non-unix programs.
I was losing it so much at the Cathy Mitchel ramen segment lmao. Watching Jerma go from vehemently simping for her to, “wait is this a joke”. You could literally read the lines of confusion on his face, as she presented her plethora of insane ramen dishes.
hey everyone, chucky stewart from sammich shapers here (yes, i am actually the real actor from that commercial). just wanted to go on the record and say that this is my favorite jerma VOD channel :D btw my commercial starts at 3:29:47
Cathy Mitchell: OK so add a squirt of ketchup to some minced beef and a whole can of Cola, add a- Jerma: I trust her Cathy Mitchell: -mix with fried egg, and you have yourself a delicious ramen cake
Cola is not a common ingredient in any American dish, in fact, people tend to use cola as a cleaning agent and diet cola as a toy. Cathy became famous because she does the weird dump dinners where she bakes a mess together.
First, I watched Jerma play games I have played. Then, I watched him play games I will never play. Now, I am watching him watch infomercials for things I will never buy. What's next?
Gramps was so based reminds me of my grandpa. he never cleared his browser history. honestly, its one of my most fond memories of him in a weird way. like the mythos of this perfect person was grounded into reality and it made me feel less bad about things. rip. love u "but can it run crysis?" jerma, you cant make this joke anymore. no one gets it. people answer seriously. it makes me so sad.
Reminds me of a good family friend when I saw hundreds of virgin Nun pornography Videos and images in a hidden folder. This was the father's computer. They're a Christian family.
Elsa beating pregnant spiderman with a baseball bat was not corporatization. Those were regular people gaming the system by exploiting the interests of the lowest common denominator. That's the actual problem. Easy money by exploiting the undiscerning. Same thing happened to television. Why work hard making a good show when twice as many people sit down to watch fat people cry and yell at each other?
The ramen thing was made for low income households and college students who dont know how to cook for themselves on a budget. Cathy was honestly GOATed for that.
@@internalizedhappyness9774 Not my fault you cant see what she was trying to do. even if she didnt succeed, she still went where no one else would to try and provide cheap alternatives for people who dont know where to begin. also where the hell did i say anything about soda
@@boycub You didn’t but the ramen book which is the “thing” I assuming your referring to does call for cola in it’s recipes. But judging by your reaction at the mention of soda; which by the way is interesting to me, but I’ll let you be and won’t continue to push. Cathy lastnamewhatever other than this Jerma video I had no clue who she was, and I don’t even know Jerma!
@@internalizedhappyness9774 hicks have been putting beer and cola in places people *shouldn't* think to put it in for a long time and its managed to make some great recipes. Beer or a cola in the right chili is actually the bomb. doesn't mean they're all winners, but some cooking calls for weird stuff. just saying its kinda weird to focus on the negative aspects of her ideas than the full picture of what she was trying to do haha
I think its funny that for that mac one, the reason why they didnt get a PC was because it was more expensive, but the model of mac it showed them having was more expensive lol
I think it was more that it was simpler, wasn't it? they definitely made a point of not showing the price vs the pc, but the whole anti-pitch was that it needed a boatload of add ons and configuring and command line typing. so it's the same pitch as apple still has today, basically. pay more and we'll make things simpler on the front end.
@@irurwurst Which seems to be a pitch that must eventually pivot, right? Like, surely, you can't continue selling things at a premium because you think people are too stupid to figure things out themselves.
We never were told a price point for the computer they bought, and the prices for the line (Proforma) started at 1,200, whereas the PC without any add ons was 1,495. Regardless, the point of the ad wasn’t really the price, it was about how much you got for the money you were paying. Macintosh computers were a far better option for a family that was new to computers back then. At the time, at best you might have Windows 3.1, which was just DOS with a UI, and there was a lot more to learn to just get PC clone up and running to do basic multimedia stuff. At the time, the emergence of CDs had created an entirely new market, and it’s what a lot of home computers were marketed using. The appeal was easy access to images, encyclopaedias and word processing. With a PC clone, none of that came out of the box. Of course, once Windows 95 came out, that changed a lot of things, but Apple still partially markets its products on “just working”. The other main marketing they use is that of a statue symbol, at least for their iPhones.
The Rocket Chef informercial made me extremely anxious from how much the guy was holding sharp blades next to the people by him.. Clearly Jerma felt the same way lol
@Evil If you think that what dems want taught in schools is helping gay people you are a idiot, I'm a gay who went to Cali public schools and they make it so being gay is a higher class, not that its ok. to them being gay is better then being straight and that is straight up evil
hearing jerma talk about food in any capacity hurts me. i don’t know how a human can know so little about cooking or literally any form of food preparation regardless of how basic
1:33:40 Today I learned that Jerma doesn't understand the concept of extras. "What the fuck, why is there a guy in the background just cooking food. I don't get it!"
Hey guys, from 3:09:06 - 3:14:10 there's a commercial for a product that may be a trigger for some people with disordered eating conditions. If seeing the worst side of 2000's era diet culture will ruin your day, skip ahead. Have a nice day.
If you need a trigger warning for a laughably dumb commercial about dieting in a culture that genuinely celebrates being a pathetically fat, lazy slob, you might wanna stick to Twitter or Twitch chat
When I became fat from overeating I went to see a dietician and this is like... the opposite of what you're supposed to do if you're overeating. Although ironically it was my friends who were insisting that eating was just part of my personality that kept causing me problems. Just wanted to point it out.
Only part of math class I hated was when they demanded I show my work when I did all the work in my head. I did it different, though. I visualized the problem in my head like I have a piece of paper up there. My method was definitely slower, though.
ME TOO! My middle school math teacher was a total bitch to me and very clearly knew what I didn't like or wasn't good at. She would literally call me up to do math on the white board in front of everyone...i think it traumatized me lmao
@@zzeroara9511 Punk ass teachers knew better with me. They knew I would only play along with everything so far and wasn't afraid to say no and hold up the class for a day. What a waste of time. I could've taught myself better than they did.
It's good practice to write down your workings out anyway because if you get the final answer wrong you can get a good chunk of marks if your working out was correct and you just had a brain fart when squaring something.
Red Devil.. 44 reports of consumers suffering burns to legs, hands and fingers, including reports of some third-degree burns, after the grills collapsed during use. More than 1,000 consumers returned their grills to the manufacturers because the grills collapsed. I am surprised that Jerma never noticed the awful leg design. I am even more surprised the Engineers never actually took notice of this.... that is very dodgy.
I'm an engineer and I can guarantee they knew about it but the execs were like "perfect! It works!" and didn't give them any time to change the design.
John Parkins is like an action movie villain that holds people hostage making fake ads for his inventions. The fact he's british really just sells the whole idea that the set is actually a dungeon the hostages are being kept in.
"This is where you plug in the printer." "And this is where you plug in the Lawnmower!" and the music abruptly switches to bass boosted metallica while he plugs it in and starts the lawnmower up, only for both of them to burst into flames
Jerma has a point with the Apple Performa infomercial. We take information technology for granted these days. But back in the 90s, it was absolutely inspiring, brought optimism and new light to those who discovered this new way of communicating and obtaining information with the world.
Ya know, a lot of jerma's takes are like "Hee hee hoo hoo, funni man makes a bad point." But he was SO dead on with his tik tok comparison that it's actually scary. He KNEW he was right too
That computer ad reminds me of a hallmark cartoon I used to watch about the ugly duckling. Watching this shoved that memory back into place and now I wanna watch it
There's a pretty large chance you're actually right, and we're about to get a surprise infomercial testing stream. He's done foreshadowing streams before.
Drew Gooden has a series where he buys a bunch of weird ass products from the internet. Same vibe, just less "this can chop things in a slightly different way".
I feel like these infomercial streams are leading to him doing his infomercial... I can't wait to call 1-800-Jerma-Sus to get one of the limited supply of Jerma branded Coffee Cheetos Chicken all-in-one Cooking/Brewing machines...
That whole showcase has the vibes of "the engineers didn't know how to make it more stable" and the hosts are extremely aware of that and are trying their hardest to make it convincing that it's stable
By the end of that red devil commercial they had enough food to feed like 75 people, there’s no way that small group of people finished even half of it.
He should do a sequel stream where he tests out all the products and the finale is him miraculously acquiring a Red Devil grill and setting his house on fire
"Better pasta than they serve at the rib joint". What kind of comparison is that? Who goes to a rib joint and gets the pasta? What rib joints are known for pasta?
the macintosh performa 630 was anywhere from $1,199 to $1,949 when the martinettis mac ad was filmed. they bought the version that was $1,300, literally saving only 100 smackaroos.
the $40,000,000 giveaway is basically just a way for the infomercial channel to say youre going to be saving so much money on these products that we are giving away $40,000,000 in products so it really isnt a giveaway jerma
