[01]
The creator role-plays as the designer of the LAXit rideshare system, satirically explaining the flawed and user-unfriendly logic behind its creation. He uses a notepad to sketch out absurd plans, such as overcrowded buses with no luggage, a convoluted route, and a chaotic pickup lot inspired by the dystopian film "Children of Men," ultimately congratulating himself on the "clever" design.

The promise the opener makes, and how the video pays it back
Hook
Establish a Point-of-View of a creator attempting to solve a widely known, frustrating problem, immediately grounding the viewer in a relatable scenario.
Payoff

The structural pattern this video runs on
Framework
The Incompetent Genius
A satirical 'behind-the-scenes' look at the creation of a famously flawed product or system, where the creator is portrayed as an oblivious genius who is proud of their terrible work.
The Flawed Foundation
The creator outlines the core solution, which is fundamentally inconvenient and counter-intuitive to the user's actual needs, presented as a necessary first step.
The Escalation of Inanity
The creator adds layers of increasingly ridiculous and user-hostile rules, features, or steps to the solution, presenting each as a logical and brilliant improvement.
The Inappropriate Muse
The creator reveals an absurd or comically inappropriate source of inspiration (e.g., a dystopian film) that perfectly explains the flawed design logic, serving as a major comedic turning point.
The Chaotic Final Product
The creator visualizes the final user experience, highlighting its most confusing and uncomfortable aspects as if they are intentional and well-designed features.

Summer 2019
Alright. I just need a simple fix for the rideshare issues right now. We won't need to use this for more than a couple months no let's figure this out. Okay. We're gonna have to transport arriving passengers to this new rideshare lot that we've built in Westchester. So when they exit the terminal, they can just look for some fucking green shit and then get picked up by a bus eventually. Each bus will comfortably fit a minimum of 650 people and the bus will not leave until that minimum is hit. And no, luggage is not welcome. Buses will follow this simple route to the rideshare lot and passengers can begin their attempts to call a car right here. You know, there was a scene in this movie about a bus terminal of sorts. Let's model the rideshare lot after that design. Once passengers enter the lot, they can fucking figure out where tier pickup is gonna be and if wait times are a little long, we'll provide some chain link fences for them to lean on. Alright. Let's call this whole thing LAX, like LAX Exit. Good, that's so fucking clever. I'm so fucking proud of you. You did such a good job. You should be proud of yourself.
