Hook template
Steal this for your own video
No one: '.' : .
- — No one: 'we need a harder way to open a protein powder tub.' Every supplement brand: ships it with a foil seal under a lid that requires a knife, scissors, and a prayer.
- — No one: 'boarding a plane needs more chaos.' Airlines: let's call every zone at once and act surprised when the aisle is blocked.
- — No one: 'cooking instructions need to be more confusing.' This meal kit company: seven pans, four timers, and a sauce that has to rest for exactly ninety seconds or it breaks.

Hook
Use a recognizable text meme format combined with a bold verbal statement to immediately introduce a baffling product design choice.
Payoff
End with a direct, repeated call to the audience asking them to explain the logic behind the design, naturally driving comment engagement.

I really feel like Orto Parisi said fuck y'all when they decided to, make their samples like this. Like, what am I supposed to do with this? Wearing this much mega mare would literally kill someone. What am I supposed to do with this? Stand it up on edge after I've ripped the top off? Like, someone please explain. Please explain.
