AI-animated satire from DOOOD What The?!. Reacts to a real news story; see transcript below.
Dooood! What the? Okay, check this out. Spencer Pratt, the crystal guy from The Hills, ran for mayor of Los Angeles. As a joke, you would assume. He came in second. Twenty eight percent. He is beating an actual councilwoman for a spot in the runoff. I did not run as a joke. I manifested this. The crystals called it months ago. The current mayor should be nervous. They keep saying reality star like it is an insult. I am the only one here who has actually seen reality. My house burned down. All the serious adults were on the ballot, and the city still picked the guy holding a crystal. Beautiful. A man who sold healing crystals out of a tent is one recount away from the mayoral runoff. Los Angeles, blink twice if you need help. Duuude... What the. (sigh)
