    Don’t get your shopping advice from influencer videos. Jeez, shouldn’t that be obvious? Their name is literally describing what they aim to do, to influence you to buy crap they advertise, and 99% of cases they advertise them because they are paid to do so.

      So, a relative of my partner’s is an influencer. I thought they had a glamorous life, because they travel all around the world. Turns out they don’t even technically get paid to promote products. Their trip expenses are covered, but that’s about it. Which I find bizarre, but I guess as long as they’re young and pretty it works.

    Hey hey subscribers, let’s take moment to thank our sponsor of today’s episode of Let’s Play Russian Roulette.

    Todays sponsor is Broomshakalaka! Got a body to dispose of? Well I certainly do, Sloppy Joseph’s brains are all over the studio and there is still one in the chamber. So whoever wins has to clean up two bodies!

    Wah wah wah (silly trombone noises).

    But cleaning can be so… BORING. The Broomshakalaka has got your back with it’s built in mp3 player. Not a music fan? Well it comes loaded as a fully playable Dreamcast and has access to two streaming services?! Now you can mop up blood and play the new Skyrim port or watch the latest from Franchise+ or Virtual Fireplace premium.

    Well what about the body? No need to fuss, turn the Broomshakalaka’s handle counterclockwise twice and it emits a spray of cosmic acid, that’s right pure 100% xenomorph blood! That body will be gone in seconds and so will your floor, removing any need to mop up residual goo.

    Well back to our Let’s Play!

    (he spins the chamber and sticks the gun in his mouth)

    Either this one needs a spell-check, or it needs to be cross-posted to the aneurysm posts sub.
