We Got Ripped Off By AI Slop Products

We got scammed on the internet. Let's talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. There are a lot of scams on the internet, and it is not just fake. Brad Pitts asking your aunt for money. There's also a rise in retail scams selling crappy counterfeit products. Yes, fake companies selling cheap drop ship products, advertising with.

deceptive or completely made up AI product photos, trying to trick you. like they did this Redditor's dad. This military backpack, is a bit smaller than one might expect. Well, unless you thought you were getting like, uh, Special. Forces Edition Barbie, you know. Uh, he, he didn't expect that. No, he thought this was for a person. So the crew did some digging around, found some ads that seemed. to be way too good to be true. And order 'em all to see what showed up.

Alright, before we start, let's familiarize ourselves with our pun ranking board. We've got Be Still My Cart, which means, you know, on this side is. like, we feel like we got somewhat scammed, but maybe not super scammed. Click Baiter Than Nothing. Yes, We Scam. Scam Wow. And the worst offender of all, The Bomb Dot Con. Yep. Let's see the first product photo, that the crew decided to order.

Yes. Wow. Now this thing is advertised as the cloud shaped 3D LED nightlight. Now, we paid $25.59. That is a steal because this thing is amazing looking. Is that a pride cloud? I mean, that is incredible. The LED part makes sense, so I'm like, all right, I understand. LEDs can be any color, so you can get all that. This thing is three dimensional. I've seen photos like this floating around, uh, Instagram and whatnot.

And I, not that I think my wife would let, my wife's, you know, a pretty. sophisticated interior designer. Mm-hmm. Matches your shirt. So I don't, you know, I don't get to like, put fake clouds in our bedroom. Mm-hmm. I just make clouds in our bedroom. But if you're a, if you're a. I don't even know what that means. I would try to figure it out as I was saying it. It's just. I think I just fart. I think it's just more of a. I mean, I'm noting that this thing is bigger than a bed. It's massive. I'm also, I'm also noting why is she sleeping with all these lights on?

Because she's. Just for an ad. AI, this is an AI illustration. What. Hey, hey, don't jump to conclusions, Link. Yeah. Don't jump to conclusions. Well, I mean, what is that phone on her bedside table? Nothing. But, just because something is AI generated doesn't mean that it. isn't a perfect indication of what it's gonna look like in real life. We have not seen it. We wanna give this thing a chance. Bring it out. I'm super excited. $26. Oh my gosh.

What in the hell? It's, it's, it's not as big. Looks like something. I mean, if I turn it sideways. Oh, there you go. Even over a twin bed, it's not gonna. So. And for, and show 'em the back. Show 'em the back. Did, did it come with a board or did we. It's just a picture frame. Did we, it came with that? This is something you can make in a weekend at Girl Scout camp. You know what I'm saying? Like this is, we, we, this is a picture frame with some hazardously hot glued,

look, now it's just falling apart. But, but turn that turn, dim the lights. Yeah, maybe it's because the lights are on. Even more. There we go. I mean it's, it, it. Ooh, now I'm falling in love. Oh, okay. I mean, yeah. All the way. Make it dark. Oh, whoa. Oh, okay. Wow. See? You wanna sleep under that? Yeah, maybe. God. I wanna do things under that. That thing is brewing boy. Why are you so horny today? But let's, let's, let's go back to the picture.

Uh, let's look back at the picture and just a side by side comparison here. Um, boy, it's not as good, is it? I mean, that thing. This is an art project. I would, I would be, I am so disappointed because when I, do you think there's a. place that you could get that thing online? Oh my gosh. Wow. Could get a strong breeze and the thing's gonna blow right away. Just like a real cloud. I hope you don't have a ceiling fan. You know what I'm saying? And it's just a corkboard.

Yeah, well. Because that would be so awesome. It, wasn't there like a, I, I thought somebody did like a AD open door with a cloud. that was on the, some celebrity had a cloud and it looked, it looked more like this. So I think there are places where you can get this, and because they. do exist, people are like, yeah. But I think you gotta know if you're paying less than $26 for something. Nothing, nothing's gonna be worse than this di, that, the level of disappointment. here, don't bring weather into it.

I get so excited. And I've gotta say, it kinda looks like it's sitting up there with its legs crossed. Oh no. I, it's fine guys. It's fine. It's crap already. Don't panic. But if anything's worse than this. I'm, I'm just, I don't know if I can handle the disappointment. Well, let's find out. This next product is, I'm excited.

It's a chair filled with your favorite stuffed animals and. it only costs $18 and 78 cents. It's called the doll storage bag, but it's really for stuffed animals. But. Which are sold separate. Yeah, you gotta, we gotta supply your own. But I mean, as you can see, once you've got all the stuffed animals that you. want, you can just sit like a queen. That is. A queen of the animals. That is awesome. And I mean, when Lando was much younger, he went through this like stuffy phase.

What are, what are those big, uh, Mush-mallows, crush-mallows, swish-mallows. Squishmallows. Squishmallows. We got there. Squishmallows. I mean, we just ended up thrifting those things. I didn't know it. It could have been made furniture. Yeah. This could be in your living room. Yes. Right now. Yes, yes. You know what? Here we are. Bring it out. Y, we ha, we only paid $18 for that one. Well.

Okay, well, there's, it is a little different. It's. First of all. I mean, that's a little woman in the picture. Yeah. I mean, look at how big my face is. My face would be as big as that woman's entire torso. But that's not the only problem with this, because, in the photo, it looks. like the animals are all gathered together and enjoying themselves. And the, in the reality, it looks like the animals are being held prisoner. Yeah, this. And suffocating. Uh, but maybe it feels better. How much money did we have to pay for all these, stuffed animals?

Don't answer that. It, it's heavy as all get out, boy. Okay. I'd say this thing's a, okay. Let me just, uh, let, just take, assume the position here. I mean. Well, I'm covering up most of it. Yeah. Well, hold on. You know what, uh, dim the lights. Let's see how that works. I know it takes a second. There we go. Okay, all right. Much better in the dark. Yeah, okay.

I'm starting to sort of like it. Okay. Okay, lights back up. Um, let's see. Rotate to the side here. Let's see what, what kind of. I mean, look at how little this thing is. What are people supposed to conclude about you as a person if you have this? And what if you wanna play with one of 'em? What do you do? Get out the scissors? That's a good point. Like what if I wanted to play with this one all the way in the arm, like. How do I, you mean I just take this thing apart and reach, yeah, I, I mean, I.

couldn't have it in my house with my cat. This thing would be ripped to shreds. I'm not. I'm sort of sliding off. I'm not too upset about this though. You, every child reaches a point where they gotta put their stuffed animals away. Hop out. And if this was a little girl in the picture instead of a woman, you would, your, your like, size would adjust. And it would be something like this. Yeah. And then it, I, I really don't, I, I don't know about, look at. the hairy part there though. That, that's weird.

It's great in the dark. This is the scary one right here. Look at that guy. I mean the, yeah. He's having a tough time. Suffocated and killed. Let's get this, help me out. But you, but you're right, it is definitely not as bad as that cloud. I mean, and you only pay $18 for it. Yeah. And if you already have those and, and you do a, uh, I'm not saying you didn't. do a good job guys, but uh, you know. There's a way to be more intentional about. Have more faces right here.

About, about the faces of torture. This could be a really cool art piece, uh, to, um, you know, to shock a child. So I'm putting that at number five. To shock a child? Yeah. It's like, look what we did with all your stuffies when you went to school today. How about surprise a child? Is that the word that you're looking for? I'm not into that. Alright, let's see the next one that we ordered. We paid $23.77 for this patriotic whiskey bottle.

Whiskey not included. This thing is, um, wow. It's detailed. It's three dimensional. I mean, laying on a bed of flag, 50 states, one nation. You can see like the capitol building there on the bottom is like, it's, it's 3D. Like that thing is coming off of the bottle. It's gonna be textured. This is gonna be fun, you know? Oh, yeah. All year, after we celebrate 250 years of America, I know we're doing. everything we possibly can to not make it to 300 years, but, um, I mean, we're.

trying real hard to, to wrap this show up real fast, but, so drink while you. can, and, uh, make this year a fun one. And hopefully the bell rings at the top. Yeah, but th th this is artistry in motion. Let's see it. It's about. I mean, I wanted to grab it like this. It's about the size. I mean, if I turn this thing sideways, look at that.

It is, it is smooth as a baby's bottom. Not that I've touched a baby's bottom in a long time. Only my own children. Yeah. Thanks for clarifying. God. Yep, that's you. This right here is what I'm talking about. This is smooth. Smooth as a baby's bottom. What? Can I hold it? Yeah, dude. And look. Does the Liberty Bell come off? Yeah, where's the freaking Liberty Bell? There's no Liberty Bell at all. I mean, it. It's just a cork. They didn't even try.

It's just a generic. They didn't even try. And the funny thing is, so if you look at uh, Washington on the left, and then who is that on the right? Hamilton. Who is that? Jefferson. So, you've got them, and it looks like they are sort of being wrapped around the. bottle in the real picture, but, in person, it's a 2D flat print and they just sort. of like distorted the edges to make it look like it's going around the edge when.

it's, hasn't even made it to the edges. You got to know for $24, I mean for $24. Oh. I could think that I would get that. Well, that's one of the things that's so offensive about this is. that you are deceiving somebody. And they're paying $24 for something and. They're probably a veteran. They're paying for something that the markup on this thing, what, what does it cost? It costs less than a dollar to make one of those things. So the margins involved in this ripoff are really high. So people are getting away with this.

Every time somebody buys, buys one of these things, they're making a lot of money. You know. If you fill it up and drink and then think, you might not get as upset. But, hold on, hold on, hold on. Let's, uh, dim the lights. Oh, good point. Let's just see if that changes our perspective. Okay, well. I like it better. Yeah. It does help. Back up. I, I think this is worse. It might be worse than the cloud. It is. Because at least the cloud functions and it functions.

Don't and, and don't, don't, don't play it to our patriotism. Yeah. Right, yes. We're gonna say that's the worst offender so far. If there's anything worse than this, I, I, I can't. I just can't. He'll quit. Well, no, I won't quit, but. He won't quit. I'll be upset. Yeah, he'll be upset. The best interviews on the internet, and maybe anywhere, they're happening over.

on Mythical Kitchen's show, Last Meals. Mm-hmm. And you should check out the most recent episode, Anthony Padilla from Smosh had. his last meal, had a great conversation with Smosh, with well with Josh. Josh. Yes. So go over there to the Mythical Kitchen channel and check it out. Alright, this next product that the crew ordered for us. It might be for our wives. Oh yes, Halloween. Super cool knit skeleton dress, only $38.

Whoa, look at the craftsmanship on this thing. We got, this is all just knit, and then we've got bones, the rib cage coming out, we got. Well, that's plastic, obviously. I mean. Right. Maybe. Yeah, you got the knit dress. And then you got like plastic or something. Piece it. So I know they're gonna be stuck to it. Yes. And yeah, I understand that that's what it's gonna be. I also don't know how I feel about this. You don't like the idea of just grabbing your wife by her actual pelvis?

No. It's this is, this is, it's so well done that it grosses me out. So. Very high expectations for this. I, I, I, I'm scared a little bit. Feels like it's gonna be the best one so far. We've been told that Brittany has an, I mean, I guess I, when I say. Brittany, I always feel like I need to say that it's not the sex doll. Right, yes. Yeah. That's probably, I mean, you could say it. It's just our, uh, head writer, Brittany, totally unrelated.

Yeah. Uh, has agreed to, uh, model this dress. So, come on out, Brittany. Whoa, okay, uh. Brittany. There's not a lot of structure to it. I don't feel my best, yeah. Not a lot of structure to it, uh. It's, what. How does it feel? It doesn't feel good. It, it's very uncomfortable. It's itchy and self-esteem, bad. Yes. May I? You may.

Okay. What is that? It's a sweatshirt. It's polyester. It's screen printed to look like it's knit. It's a screen printed polyester, and they're charging 38 bucks for that. Yeah. I mean, can you. I mean, you get, you think you're gonna go to the Halloween party looking like that? It'd be like I, every, I'm gonna turn heads and instead you're just. gonna turn people away from you. Maybe in the dark, though. Oh yeah, yeah. Can we dim the lights. I feel better. I can still sort of see her. Yeah.

Okay. Mostly because the cloud is casting a little bit of light on her. Back up. Okay. Yeah, that didn't help necessarily. Actually. It did help. A little bit. No, it did help. It did help a little bit. It did help some. Right, yeah. So if you're going to a dimly lit party, I mean, maybe. Maybe strike a different pose. Maybe that's the problem. Yeah. Okay. Brittany, we're not gonna make you stand up here. We have a, we have a representative placard. I don't know, dude. I mean, the thing is, it's following the same principle of deception that.

the whiskey bottle is following. But at the price point of that whiskey bottle, I actually started to believe. that it, that I could have gotten a three dimensional thing for $26 or whatever it was. For this, for this to be $38, it needs to, there's some alarms that. are going off that I'm probably not gonna, I'm not gonna complete my cart. You know what I'm saying? So I, I think that the whiskey bottle's still worse because it's all.

Well, you just entered is a whole new factor, which is. It's more reason, like. Figuring it out along the way. The pricing, I had an expectation that the whiskey bottle could be. what it looked like in the picture. Not with a dress. So I think that this is second to the whiskey bottle. Okay. I don't quite follow the logic, but. You want me to say it a third time? I'm not gonna disagree. Can somebody explain it to him? He, Link is talking about expectations, right?

Yeah, yeah. How high his hopes were versus how badly they were dashed. Well, no. Right. What I'm saying. Try a fourth time. What I'm saying. 'cause that's what I was thinking. What I'm saying is, the price of the whiskey bottle makes me think that it. could have been manufactured in the three dimensional way that I saw in the market. And you never would believe that this, that could be done for $38. Yes. So the level of deception is higher, based on the pricing. Which is even more of a rip off.

I understand that. Now, I think the question is, if we're ranking the level of deception. departure from that, then this is a worse offender than the whiskey bottle. But if we are taking into account the real world experience of people. being deceived, okay, then I'm cool. This is a new, I have to rethink my whole scale at this point. I, and, and every second we do that, Brittany has to stand over there in the dress. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Well, let's, uh, let's, uh, hit the lights.

Okay. We paid $28 for this giant, cozy looking cat sleeping bag. Wow. You can get a, there's a couple of different ones that you can choose from. We chose the tabby cat. This thing looks amazing. Look at how sleepy that guy is in there. Yeah. And, and I assume this is. That's real. A full size. Man. Yeah. He's got a beard. Right.

Probably not a boy with a beard. He's not a boy. Not a bearded boy. So, this thing's probably what, six feet, five feet? He's, he's balled up a little bit. If we're gonna go with five feet. Balled up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bring it in. Let's see it. $28, that's a steal. What? I don't even know where to start.

Well, here's the hole. I think you're gonna have to get in there 'cause you're a little bit smaller than me. Yeah. Oh, maybe once you're in it, it'll, it'll be okay. Right. You know, once you're in it, you will, we will just, perspective will change. and then it'll look like the picture. Right. So I'm gonna leave it up here. I'm gonna lay down on a desk. Yeah, there we go. A little bit there. There we go. I'm gonna do one of these things 'cause I'm, I'm looking at, let me,

let me get the, let me get my feet all the way down there and then. Uhhuh. And then if you can get the head of the cat up above you. Put my zipper up. Because is, isn't that the top? Yeah, the, the head of the cat is. Head of the cat is right here, if you can see. Yes, yes. Can you put, can I, if you can get your head, it is a hood. Can you, can you put it. It's a hood almost. You can, um. Yes, yes. Get your head.

Oh, that was a rip. I think that was my shoulder. My CV joint. I mean, maybe you can kind of tell it's, if you can really ball. up, can you get even smaller? Can you, can you become a boy? Be as boy-like as possible. Boy with a beard. It's not the first time I've been called that. Okay. So, yeah. Oh, oh, perfect. It's a pillow. It's a pillow. Well, there you go. So it really comes together once you get it all on, and I bet you if we cut the lights.

Yeah. Well, it looks like we've lost power on our cloud. It happens. Lights back on. Oh, I guess I'm just in front of it. You're you're in front of it. Yeah. There we go. We're back. We're back. We're back. Well, you know, it's not that bad is it, Link? You just touched me in the anus. And I say anus because. I didn't touch you. You actually touched my butthole. No, how does the inside?

How does the inside of my elbow. No, you can, I mean, I can't touch you in the anus. No, it was, it was more specific. Like my knees are up here, so it's kind of like right there. Okay. Well, I guess it should be thicker. It should be like the picture. Yeah. It should definitely be thicker. Now you try. For, for anal protection. I, I'm trying to figure out something here. Can this happen in other countries? This ki, I don't know. I'm just, it should be illegal. This feels like the kind of thing that you can do in America, but like, in. Europe, you can't do this or something.

You know? It's like, it's one of those things that like this, if you're, if you're found out. to be doing this, if you're doing something that's this deceptive, I just feel like there. should be some legal ramifications for this. Am I, am I wrong about that? Because I mean, think there's, there's people at home doing, doing this right now, trying. to figure out how to get it outta that thing. That's basically just a t-shirt with a zipper on it.

Um, man. Now, again. This is a disappointment. And it's a big one. Right? But we have to take into account. Think about the children. Your logic. If you saw that. You know what, my logic, I, I think it was, it's a little confusing, so. No, I understand it, if you saw that thing you, but the problem is, is that you, I think. you might be giving people too much credit. Like if we're just saying how big of a disappointment is this thing. compared to the thing that they advertise, regardless of price.

I mean, there's no padding in this thing. That thing looks like you could just fall asleep in the there and never wake up. Looks like you can be hugged by a cat. Are you trying to number one this? We're in the top. I just feel like this and this are worse than this bottle. Okay. At least I can put whiskey in this and drink my sorrows away. All right. You know what I'm saying? I think this is the worst because it involves. Kids getting disappointed. Yes. And I think this.

For the kids. Is the second worst because it involves getting, uh, veterans disappointed. Yes. And this just involves, um, people with poor fashion sense getting disappointed. Yeah. You shouldn't be wanting that anyway. So. So where's the cloud land? Um, just sort of ethereal and covers the whole thing. I think. I think we love the cloud now. Yeah. Yeah, we, we. So. The cloud, cloud's really growing on us. Every time we cut the lights, especially. Thanks for comm-, thanks for commenting and sharing this video.
