A satirical skit where a flamboyant LA influencer visits a TikTok-famous Brooklyn coffee shop, much to the annoyance of the two jaded, counter-culture employees. The video contrasts their cultural stereotypes through a series of comedic interactions involving a ridiculous coffee order, a debate over photography, and a suggestion for Botox, culminating in the influencer taking selfies with the unwilling staff.

OMG. This is a VK coffee shop. Right? I've seen you guys all over TikTok. Oh, no. We're going viral again. I'll have the latte art intern report the video. We don't want any more customers. Is this like a bodega? We don't have these in LA. Only Erewhon. No. It's not a bodega. Have you never been in Brooklyn? Ew. We're in Brooklyn. I had no idea. I Ubered here. Best don't tell my LA friends. Don't worry. They should. I'm disgusted. Are you gonna order? I saw on TikTok that you guys have a secret menu. That's only for customers who know Karl Marx birthday. Who's Mark? Anyway, I'll have a sugar free, calorie free, dairy free, fat free, liquid free, ugly free. Do you buy chocolate latte? That'll be $35. It's on sale. Does it come with a little boo boo? Only if you look like one. Here you go. Could you cut it in half? I'm on a diet. Interesting flavor. Where's the water source from? It's New York City tap. Oh. On second thought, I'll just take a photo from my Instagram story and go. Ew. There's a lot of depressing downward lighting in here. Is that intentional? Thank you for noticing. It's to discourage photography, and it's our act of rebellion against the surveillance state. Tier, let me just perfect. This plant didn't photo send consent. Get in. Oh, wow. You guys should really be more careful. All that heavy scowling is gonna cause frown lines. Thank Good for Botox. We're not getting Botox. Why not? It's preventative. I've been getting it since I was five. We can't lose our glare of disgust. We want people to know we don't like them. Whatever. I'll send you guys the photos once I finish face tuning them. My face is already in tune. Tata. It's G major.
