I feel like corporations are forgetting that normal people DON’T want this virtual dystopia that they seem to think humanity is heading towards. We all actively don’t want that.
Imagine your mom telling you she’s going to Walmart and then she just stands in the living room with a vr headset on, moving her hands as if she’s grabbing items and placing them in her cart.
When I was working at Walmart we weren't allowed to fight the customers, but I'm happy to hear the company is finally listening to the requests of its employees.
Every time I go to Walmart I never get helped properly, if you do get them to help they go away for like a half hour and you're lucky if they ever come back
@@bakedthepotato5489 Oh I might be able to explain that. Obviously this isn't always the case, but this was the case for me. I would often be asked to unlock things by customers even though I didn't have the keys. So I would go look for the person with the keys or look for someone with a walkie talkie who could summon the person with the keys, usually my manager. Because customers usually caught me in the middle of doing something, I would go back to whatever I was doing. I had no way of knowing if the person with the keys ever showed up.
Young shoppers... the only phrase that could possibly make it more clear how they value people based solely upon how much of which products they buy would be calling them "Undeveloped Consumers" or some shit
Not even mentioning that a lot of stores at least in the states have tiny, child-sized shopping carts with plastic banners that say "customer in training". That should have been the red flag that got legislation on top of this but we all know the gov mostly serves corporations rather than citizens.
That's how retail and marketing works. They put people into demographic groups and market/sell to those groups. The cold and calculating logic of extracting profit.
As a former employee, I thank God every day I no longer have to hear walmart radio. Literally made me viscerally angry hearing the same like 15 songs every day for months and months
@@emilyb.8219 I feel this way about Sirius XM Christmas and 60s at 6. Lollipop and Africa every fucking day through the year, then a thousand versions of the same six songs all from Thanksgiving to New Years.

I wanna believe that Netflix was trying to find ways to keep Noah Schnapp busy so he didn't keep talking and were like "Just do this Walmart thing PLEASE"
Imagine working at Walmart HQ and they show you this horrible dystopian simulation that probably cost millions to make, and your boss is standing there smiling at you waiting for you to be like “I love it! So futuristic! People will shop at Walmart more now!” And you have to decide if it’s worth it to tell the truth
After briefly working in sales, I'm convinced they're from another planet. The people who make those "shopping experiences" think people want a person constantly talking to them and can't comprehend someone who wouldn't like that, even when you tell them directly. They 100% wanted that whole hologram guide thing irl
fr. i've actually found that leaving people alone until they make it clear that they need/want help is actually better for business than constantly being on someone's tail
@@finnpeders02 I think it varies from person to person, but generally I've found older people want to be talked to, younger people want to be left alone. But also old people are the first ones to lose their shit if you mess up at all.
@@finnpeders02 yeah, i’m english and the fact that workers in america constantly welcome you in, talk to you ,follow you, pack YOUR shopping for you etc is so weird to me?? it might be because english people (probably just europeans in general) are just very closed off, but i would literally never go shopping if any of that happened here lmao, i’m not a 9 year old
speaking of dystopian walmarts: all 3 of the walmarts in my town replaced ALL of their cashiers with self-checkout lines, the employees are literally only there to fulfill online pickup orders and if you try to talk to a single one of them they either look at you like YOU'RE the weird one for asking an employee where the yogurt is OR like they've been a ghost for 500 years and you're the first person who has ever been able to see them
Kinda why I refuse to use self checkout lines honestly because this is exactly what it's been leading to and I'd rather not contribute to it if i don't have to, it sounds just as off putting as I imagined it.
I can't remember the last time I used a regular checkout at Walmart/Target all my local stores have been replaced as well. Kinda cool since my anxious ass can just grab some trading cards and not interact with anyone at all, but I'm not down for this or support it. So yeah it's sad.
@@donovanfaust3227 what's the downside of what they just described? cashiering is the worst thing on the entire planet. i'd rather be pulling from shelves. what you should be asking is why wages aren't going up for the workers, and that stagnants with or without self checkouts.
Yup. I went to the Hatfield walmart recently and there were 200 foot self checkout lines with all the available employees congregating at the front and talking while chaos insued. I was so mad I just left my cart and walked out the door.
@@viiviviviiv Just means less jobs, companies are all about profit and getting as much labour for as little as they can. I've definitely seen staff counts go down when self checkout is implemented largely
After watching the video back, I have concluded that Danny gets the coins in walmart land from a badge that he earns from riding the monorail for the first time
@@ledzeppelinrestores Well Walmart doesn’t even exist on Portugal or Angola, is extremely minor in Brazil and Mozambique, and I honestly don’t think they’d release their metaverse on Cape Verde, East Timor or something lol (not downplaying them, just that it’d seem unproductive to me)
@@jodie6039 how is that funny, it’s quite sad actually. how could you make fun of such a real thing (the joke is that danny’s hair fell out and i “believed it”)
The VR headset in the Walmart makes me laugh so much because I imagine you actually have a cart and every time you add something to it in the VR, some employee just bolts to grab the item from the shelf and throw it into the cart for you, so when you take off the headset your cart’s full and you just have to check out
I don't get why people would care if you fridge knows what you have in stock. It actually sounds like one of the only decent uses for smart appliances.
16:48 genuinely thought at first the person who answered danny had the username “kandanceplayz” as in “can dance plays?” and their entire goal was to let people know if they could or couldn’t dance in any given roblox game
Watching that dystopian walmart vr clip felt like getting a glimpse into a circle of purgatory. Like if you die at a grocery store, you get sent to this weird walmart limbo and are never allowed to leave, you just have to shop forever while your groceries disappear as you buy them and then you have to get more. So yeah thats gonna haunt my dreams now thanks
Added incentive, you have a starving family waiting for you at home-- therefore, you can't just stop shopping or refuse to participate in the endless cycle.
Agreed about the hovering assistant. Please just let me roam in the void by myself please and choose my own products. "A family size bag of peanut butter M&Ms? We don't have any record of you having a family." No no no. Danny's face at 6:11 says it all.
Years ago I've talked with a developer working on an IoT project who told me the result of the very first study they did on the subject was that costumers will never accept a product tat feels patronizing. The AI should help them with theur decisions, not make decisions for them. This was in 2014. Weird how that message still hasn't come across.
The Walmart VR shopping experience very closely resembles a reoccurring nightmare I would have as a child of going shopping with my mom in a grocery store floating in nothingness with a vampire sales associate chasing us
yeah, my reoccuring nightmare from when i was very young was that i was in a liminal space city and that the floor would be filled with shapes that it would hurt if i stepped on them, they would sink into the ground and i would run through the street and then they would appear and id be stuck
I had Walmart nightmares too! The most common one was the Walmart was endless and all the Halloween decorations had come to life, so I grabbed a shotgun from the gun section and was protecting my mother trying to fight our way to the exit. I woke up before we got out.
Danny's chat at 17:25 "that seems like a huge oversight on walmarts part. I'm tanking their stock price for this" is highly good and should be recognized.
also the girl at 17:30 that said she tried to dance and it didnt work, thats because the command is /e dance not e/dance , u can dance in walmart land 😭 she lied to danny
Lmfao they didn't even bother to put him on a set of anything. The lighting is terrible, he seems completely disaffected, I bet he filmed it on an iphone set up on a tripod
i wish theyd greenscreened him so the background was actually walmart land. not because it would make it better but just because it would look really funny
@@kimym9270 I strongly suspect he was showing his worst takes for comedy. Not that he didn't really fail a lot, just that he chose to show only the more comical mess-ups instead of the understandable ones.
With his glasses, long buzzcut, and one color T shirt he looks like every 5 year old I have ever seen. This was probably the point but I’m just impressed that he managed to get it so accurate.
13:22 like 1 year ago the death sound i the volume changer sound was Oof, and now roblox changer it to the sound i sometimes Heard in my parents bedroom.
I am at school for Fashion Design, and we all have to take a course where each week we write a short paper about contemporary designers/brands that belong to whatever that week’s topic is. (accessibility, bridal, sustainability, couture, etc.) One week the topic was “Metaverse/NFTs”. Every other sentence of research had me needing a lie-down. To sum up, I was just sitting there when my roommate, also a design major, cried out in grief “GUCCI TOWN?!?” That’s right folks, Walmartland is small pebbles.
That sounds so awful! Ugh. This whole Walmartland thing was just gross to me, and pretending that it's not blatantly advertising to children is just ew.
I reverted back to when I was a kid playing Roblox and it stressed me out because that obby was so mf easy Edited to change a word because I messed up lol
Walmart thinking that VR shopping would look more like physical shopping instead of something completely different like a digital catalog reminds me of people in the past thinking that “the future of mobility” will be a metal horse pulling a carriage, instead of a “car”.
And the funniest thing is that these digital catalogues already exist 😂 It's just called online shopping, and is 100x more efficient than pushing a virtual cart, grabbing virtual items, while a virtual assistant is telling you what else you should buy
The fridge knowing what you have seems like a plot point I'd expect in a murder novel, like the killer has to store the body but needs to find a vintage fridge bc the modern ones will alert the police 😭
That sounds like a hilarious dark comedy. Like, a group of people accidentally killed a man. And they have no idea what to do with the body, so it just becomes a similar situation in Weekend At Bernie’s, but it’s the group having to find a “vintage” fridge. At one point, one of the main characters just pretends to be an inspector to check a bunch of people’s fridges, but (because this is a dystopian future) that character has to pretend to be a human AI or smth
I worked for Walmart, can confirm that these look JUST like their training videos. They're like from the 90's, super dystopian and depressing. The vibe of this vid is accurate.
I was helping my sister study for her anthropology test (on monkeys and evolution etc.) and she mentioned bonobos (the monkeys)-so of course I immediately thought of *bonobos sweater blue* and it’s been stuck in my head ever since The only detail on the study guide about bonobos was “they’re always having sex” so do with that what you will
fun fact, bonobo behavior is probably very similar to the behavior of our early ancestors! and yes, they have sex all the time with everyone. straight sex, lesbian sex, gay sex (aka “pen1s jousting”). they don’t discriminate!
You know, if they put some wonky skyrim type physics in, I could totally see this worth st least being a good laugh for a single use. My favorite part in skyrim(and my own perverted fsntasy) is when I jump up on the giant tables, covered in elaborate tableware and food, and just start FLINGING THE SHIT ALL OVER THE PLACE, RIGHT IN NPC'S FACES, LIKE SOME BRAINDEAD CAVEMAN!!!!! I've always fantasized about doing that at the Thanksgiving dinner table, and when I'm in walmart I always fantasize about trying to "domino" all the shelves over in the entire store, and I think it would be awesome if the VR could become a fucked up playground to vandalize and act out horrible things inside a fakeWalmart. .
I actually audibly laughed, out loud, in the young shopper birth scene when it cut to the father staring at his hands as the cart decends into walmart hell.
Remember when you were a kid staring into a dark closet or room, and you would feel a primal, yet indescribable feeling of discomfort and fear? That's what I feel when watching and learning about Walmart Land.
@@kamikeserpentail3778 Might want to have that checked out? Maybe your perception of apathy is indicative of something more serious underlying. Might want to check that out......
If you go to Walmart virtually then you'll miss out on that delicious stale cigarette smell as you walk into a real Walmart, and that's really a touch of charm I can't let go of.
‼️Don't forget all the colorful locals! It's not a Walmart without a morbidly obese person dressed in comically small clothes while riding the Walmart scooter. Ofc honking wildly at anyone who gets too close.
As someone who can’t do anything in VR without getting insanely nauseous, I absolutely cannot wait to virtually shop at Walmart while feeling horrible!
Oh wow! As a British child I can finally experience the American shopping experience! I bet Walmart will 100% be looking like this in real life, how cool!
I have, embarassingly, played Roblox for the last 9 years and it's always funny to see people try it out for the first time because it unironically is really fucking confusing
I think it's weird that it's so far removed from the standards set by most videogames. The kids that grow up with Roblox are about to be so confused by any other game.
Genuinely didn’t know it had even existed for 9 years. Has it changed much since it was made? Because the interface and graphics have that look of being designed around 2010
@@daneroberts1996 Roblox was first made in 2005 and it was VERY different back then, there wasn't even smooth terrain to put to perspective, however I only started playing in 2014, and it hasn't changed drastically since then outside from an in-app home screen added coupled with the website and some icons changing, none of the UI stuff that was already has changed that much
That thing about the smartfridge and already having a gallon of milk just absolutely slays me. This is in the _metaverse_ and you're not actually _at_ Walmart, if you're wondering whether you already have milk you can just take the headset off and _look in the fridge yourself_ to find out! Who the hell needs their smart devices to tell them what's going on in their house when they're already _in_ the house? Am I supposed to never take my headset off? Do I just live in the metaverse now and have trusted family members or neighbors feed me the food I order from Walmart while I spend 100% of my time shopping online? Do they really think this meta-Walmart is so goshdamn engaging that I'd rather have a digital assistant log into my fridge to tell me about my milk situation when I could just pause the program and stretch my legs for a minute by going to check? I've heard of a solution in search of a problem before, but this is a new one on me: a non-solution in search of a non-problem.
right? a smart fridge or storage would be smart if I was at the store and not sure if I actually have something at home. it makes no sense if I'm at home and just too lazy to look
Imagine if you're somewhere else like an airbnb and you need milk but your roommates have already gotten milk and the metaverse keeps yelling at you that you already have milk
This probably started as an tiny AR concept that got way too much budget diverted to it, so more and more nonsense got grafted on to make it look less like embezzlement.
The ironic thing about making the assistant a full on human model instead of a disembodied voice, is that the people who want a full on human hovering around them the whole time are probably not going to be on metaverse, and those that are shopping online are probably either heavily socially anxious or want a more ‘futuristic’ experience
For I passed on to you, as of first importance, the account I had received, that Christ died for our sins, as the Scriptures foretold, that he was buried, that on the third day he was raised from the dead, as the Scriptures foretold 1 Corinthians 15
Definitely, heck I even have ideas right now of what they could do with it. Maybe have the employee ai lady start telling you to grab increasingly disturbing things and not to go down aisle 6 but when you do anyway, there's something awful there and she starts to chase you, or something.
I work with the blind and visually impaired and I can see how the “assistant shopper” could be helpful if it identified items, disclosed prices, and provided info on what was included in each aisle. But it doesn’t look like that was their market or considered when they did the creepy commercial 😂
@@JenSell1626 it would be more accessible and useful as some form of AR. This ultimately could allow for anyone with a capable device to get help from the automated employee on a wide range of customer oriented concerns.
That's the thing with a lot metaverse, and AI technologies - they could very well be suited to address accessibility needs, but you know humanities are irrelevant to STEM after all
One time the employee at the local subway recognised me and my brother because we went there so often and we Never Went Back, so the idea that the store itself would acknowledge me directly is a nightmare
I wish I had to go somewhere very often to be remembered and recognized... people always remember me for some reason even if I've only shopped somewhere once. I don't have green hair or anything weird like that, so I do not know why. Man, I wish I could be sort of anonymous.
I used to have such bad social anxiety that I once paid for something, then started walking away without my change. The very thought that someone would ask if I needed help filled me with enough dread that I wouldn't go in some stores. Now I'm like it's kind of neat being recognized at my favorite ramen/sushi place. "It's good to see you again" "thank you, the food is great as usual" Sometimes I'll wear a collar and tail out in public, and I'm far less concerned if people look or say something.
thats how i feel about my local sonic. one day the girl said "oh you aren't on your usual side" and now everytime i think about going i'm like "oh my god they all think i'm terrible for eating here so often" like i think its sweet that she's recognized me but at the same time pls i just want cheesesticks
I think people also forget though that like, the workers are also people. I know from experience that seeing someone come in that you recognize not only makes it easier on my own anxiety but it also makes it so much easier for me to feel like I'm a real person and that people actually don't despise speaking to me and etc. It's obviously just my own anxieties but if I said recognized someone and they never came back I would think that I'd done something or that I looked so horrid that they never came back. Lol
I love how it "verifies" your age based on the age of your account but half of the children lie about their age, so Walmart is selling children alcohol
It's like how mature websites would only put that the ' Are you 18+ ' on the front page as if someone under 18 was just gonna be like ' Oh no of course not I'm sorry I'll leave ' kids are just going to lie if there's no way to prove that they aren't born in 1895 when they try to buy a bottle of vodka or something.
Me too 🥲! Also I imagine after they said to pick up your car and Danny realized that maybe your supposed to be in Walmart for this … I couldn’t help but to picture like a resident evil umbrella type Walmart where there are like hundreds of people with headsets on in a white room and cords going back to the Walmart main frame 🫣(where you can never leave)🤣
The only way I can imagine a Walmart vr experience being fun is if you could just run around the store and mess around with the items however you please, but somehow I can't imagine them going for that
I've been in a vr chat server where they roleplay as Walmart customers and employees. It's pretty crazy to pretend to look for diet keto-friendly wheat milk while a irish sounding Ugandan knuckles is trying to explain such a thing doesnt exist and american midwestern hatsune miku and a Portuguese/Brazilian captain America are flirting at the cashiers holding up the line. There used to also be another walmart that let you shoot up said Walmart and gave you points for shooting the mannequins. But I met 5 identical master chiefs there that enforced a no violence police despite pretty much every corner giving away free loaded Ak-47s and hand grenades.
"How do I put on this frickin' dress?! I have a feeling it's in this bag, but there's, like, a list of players in the way, so I can't click on the bag."
It’s especially dystopian because they’re like “here let the robot deliver it to your car!” And show you a fake drone delivering it to your car while in real life, a struggling, overworked, single parent is lugging it out to the car
@@thatfuzzypotato1877 It sucks because if you say no they either insist or you risk them getting mad for denying them their hero moment. So you have to take the tip just to give it to your manager to give to the company. Meanwhile the dipshits are like “I just paid that guy’s rent” for tipping a dollar and 20 cents.
Having a separate “universe of play” that is distinct from the virtual shopping part of this initiative is 1000% the digital equivalent of having one of those playgrounds that are in IKEAs, Chick-fil-A’s, and McDonald’s 😂
Walmart lighting always makes me feel like a bug trapped in a ceiling light but this? It's like a dystopian lab where they do cruel genetic experiments on pasta
I was in Walmart one time, and I saw Danny. He sprinted toward me and proceeded to crush my trachea and break both of my pinky fingers. I was lying on the ground and he screamed “PUT THE MILK BACK”. It was such a Danny thing to do LOL 😂
Huh, you know that last part would be great on a shirt 🤔 if only there were niche shirts like that. Why, if we had that; I might buy them for my family and friends!
I love how there's not a button or anything at the top to play the Netflix trivia and you have to venture on a quest through Walmart Land instead to find Noah Schnapp and play Netflix trivia with him

speaking of dystopian walmarts: all 3 of the walmarts in my town replaced ALL of their cashiers with self-checkout lines, the employees are literally only there to fulfill online pickup orders and if you try to talk to a single one of them they either look at you like YOU'RE the weird one for asking an employee where the yogurt is OR like they've been a ghost for 500 years and you're the first person who has ever been able to see them
Kinda why I refuse to use self checkout lines honestly because this is exactly what it's been leading to and I'd rather not contribute to it if i don't have to, it sounds just as off putting as I imagined it.
I can't remember the last time I used a regular checkout at Walmart/Target all my local stores have been replaced as well. Kinda cool since my anxious ass can just grab some trading cards and not interact with anyone at all, but I'm not down for this or support it. So yeah it's sad.

Yup. I went to the Hatfield walmart recently and there were 200 foot self checkout lines with all the available employees congregating at the front and talking while chaos insued. I was so mad I just left my cart and walked out the door.

I had Walmart nightmares too! The most common one was the Walmart was endless and all the Halloween decorations had come to life, so I grabbed a shotgun from the gun section and was protecting my mother trying to fight our way to the exit. I woke up before we got out.

Walmart thinking that VR shopping would look more like physical shopping instead of something completely different like a digital catalog reminds me of people in the past thinking that “the future of mobility” will be a metal horse pulling a carriage, instead of a “car”.
And the funniest thing is that these digital catalogues already exist 😂 It's just called online shopping, and is 100x more efficient than pushing a virtual cart, grabbing virtual items, while a virtual assistant is telling you what else you should buy

That sounds like a hilarious dark comedy. Like, a group of people accidentally killed a man. And they have no idea what to do with the body, so it just becomes a similar situation in Weekend At Bernie’s, but it’s the group having to find a “vintage” fridge. At one point, one of the main characters just pretends to be an inspector to check a bunch of people’s fridges, but (because this is a dystopian future) that character has to pretend to be a human AI or smth

I worked for Walmart, can confirm that these look JUST like their training videos. They're like from the 90's, super dystopian and depressing. The vibe of this vid is accurate.
I was helping my sister study for her anthropology test (on monkeys and evolution etc.) and she mentioned bonobos (the monkeys)-so of course I immediately thought of *bonobos sweater blue* and it’s been stuck in my head ever since
The only detail on the study guide about bonobos was “they’re always having sex” so do with that what you will
gonna get those bonobos sweater blue balls i suppose
It's like a friendly social thing for them I think
Bonobos more like BONEbos
fun fact, bonobo behavior is probably very similar to the behavior of our early ancestors! and yes, they have sex all the time with everyone. straight sex, lesbian sex, gay sex (aka “pen1s jousting”). they don’t discriminate!
Whenever I hear bonobos, I think of Gamegrumps calling them constant fuck monkeys

That thing about the smartfridge and already having a gallon of milk just absolutely slays me. This is in the _metaverse_ and you're not actually _at_ Walmart, if you're wondering whether you already have milk you can just take the headset off and _look in the fridge yourself_ to find out! Who the hell needs their smart devices to tell them what's going on in their house when they're already _in_ the house?
Am I supposed to never take my headset off? Do I just live in the metaverse now and have trusted family members or neighbors feed me the food I order from Walmart while I spend 100% of my time shopping online? Do they really think this meta-Walmart is so goshdamn engaging that I'd rather have a digital assistant log into my fridge to tell me about my milk situation when I could just pause the program and stretch my legs for a minute by going to check?
I've heard of a solution in search of a problem before, but this is a new one on me: a non-solution in search of a non-problem.
idk if that was your intent but this made me laugh so hard
If my fridge is truly smart, it'll mind its own business. Unless it wants to get unplugged.
right? a smart fridge or storage would be smart if I was at the store and not sure if I actually have something at home. it makes no sense if I'm at home and just too lazy to look
Imagine if you're somewhere else like an airbnb and you need milk but your roommates have already gotten milk and the metaverse keeps yelling at you that you already have milk
This probably started as an tiny AR concept that got way too much budget diverted to it, so more and more nonsense got grafted on to make it look less like embezzlement.
The ironic thing about making the assistant a full on human model instead of a disembodied voice, is that the people who want a full on human hovering around them the whole time are probably not going to be on metaverse, and those that are shopping online are probably either heavily socially anxious or want a more ‘futuristic’ experience

and danny is DEFINITELY my favorite walmart employee
The only way I can imagine a Walmart vr experience being fun is if you could just run around the store and mess around with the items however you please, but somehow I can't imagine them going for that
Metaverse experience for frustrated customers and employees, where you just run around with a baseball bat wrecking stuff.
Like the (unofficial) target roblox game where you can just steal and all the employees get mad at you for it
I've been in a vr chat server where they roleplay as Walmart customers and employees.
It's pretty crazy to pretend to look for diet keto-friendly wheat milk while a irish sounding Ugandan knuckles is trying to explain such a thing doesnt exist and american midwestern hatsune miku and a Portuguese/Brazilian captain America are flirting at the cashiers holding up the line.
There used to also be another walmart that let you shoot up said Walmart and gave you points for shooting the mannequins. But I met 5 identical master chiefs there that enforced a no violence police despite pretty much every corner giving away free loaded Ak-47s and hand grenades.
@@dantai68 LMAOOOO
That would encourage more people to buy from Walmart. Them just allowing you to run by peoples carts and steal shit 😭.
As a Roblox veteran watching him struggle to figure it out is hilarious
as a roblox veteran I too am constantly lost and disgusted
The obby is so simple it makes me want to cry watching him struggle.
"How do I put on this frickin' dress?! I have a feeling it's in this bag, but there's, like, a list of players in the way, so I can't click on the bag."
“An Obby? Am I supposed to know what that is?”
no same it's so funny
Watching Danny fail at one of the most easy obbies is hilarious to me.
The intro is the best part. I could watch Danny riff off that original cringe Walmart metaverse experience demo for a solid hour.
Congratulations 🎊✨ You’ve been selected in my draw. (👆message the Above on telegram to claim your prize..
I always get the names metaverse and omegaverse mixed up. I was genuinely expecting an omegaverse Walmart video.
Bro what 😭😭
Thank you for the reminder that we are not, in fact, in the worst timeline.
I've never had an original experience
Oml not Walmart poisoning Omegaverse please heck no
@@MollyHJohns exactly my thoughts when I saw it. I was concerned for Danny’s safety when I clicked on the video
It’s especially dystopian because they’re like “here let the robot deliver it to your car!” And show you a fake drone delivering it to your car while in real life, a struggling, overworked, single parent is lugging it out to the car
That are you are specifically not allowed to tip or they get in trouble
@@thatfuzzypotato1877 It sucks because if you say no they either insist or you risk them getting mad for denying them their hero moment. So you have to take the tip just to give it to your manager to give to the company. Meanwhile the dipshits are like “I just paid that guy’s rent” for tipping a dollar and 20 cents.
but walmart is actually testing drone deliveries lolllll
@@nataliadiascamara6292 but who's gonna be packing the drones? Underpaid workers 💀
@@nataliadiascamara6292 girl this isn't the serve you think it is!
It’s so perfect to imagine Dany just arguing with a bunch of nine year olds.
Having a separate “universe of play” that is distinct from the virtual shopping part of this initiative is 1000% the digital equivalent of having one of those playgrounds that are in IKEAs, Chick-fil-A’s, and McDonald’s 😂
How did they manage to make Walmart feel more hellish than it already is
For real!!
Walmart lighting always makes me feel like a bug trapped in a ceiling light but this? It's like a dystopian lab where they do cruel genetic experiments on pasta
Noah is such a good actor
Hi
Begone spam account
Fine
hello timebucks
Fine 👌
I can't explain it but Danny has perfectly embodied a drunk college student in this video 💀
I'd would drink if I had to make a video on this lol
Is it because he 1) looks like he's in his early 20s, 2) looks like he cuts his own hair, and/or 3) is wearing a sports t-shirt?
@@AuDHDarling all of the above lol
He clearly cuts his own hair---
I would love to have a happy medium between irl Walmart and metaverse Walmart (I want to be alone in a Walmart with a self checkout)
I was in Walmart one time, and I saw Danny. He sprinted toward me and proceeded to crush my trachea and break both of my pinky fingers. I was lying on the ground and he screamed “PUT THE MILK BACK”. It was such a Danny thing to do LOL 😂
what a goofy guy, he is definitely from ohio
So classic danny
Huh, you know that last part would be great on a shirt 🤔 if only there were niche shirts like that. Why, if we had that; I might buy them for my family and friends!
@@makemesmile1839 somebody should make a video about that🤔
Hahaha that’s so danny
Danny getting angry at a Walmart parkour course was the last thing that I expected I needed this week
the yassified Van Gogh part caught me wayyy off guard 💀
SAME
This was the first Danny video I ever watched, and I come back to it every once in a while for some nostalgia.
Im back again
“We just talked to your smart fridge and they told us your ugly” got me dying of laughter lol
I’ve been playing Roblox since around 2009. Hearing Danny say ‘Walmart is advertising through a children’s game’ was a humbling experience
I think it’s so wholesome how danny apologizes to the person wanting to go on the monorail even though he didn’t do anything wrong
I love how there's not a button or anything at the top to play the Netflix trivia and you have to venture on a quest through Walmart Land instead to find Noah Schnapp and play Netflix trivia with him
Dannys decent into madness while doing that obby was everything
My life instantly changed for the better since I became GREG. The sun is shining, birds are singing and I have a renewed sense of vigor. Thanks Danny! You’re an Angel!
@Don't Read Profile Photo I won’t.
@@dioisamazing9523 what was their name? I didn’t read it.
So your a dude now?
@@Nunya-gk9fr GREG transcends any concept of gender. It’s an essence and a way of life.
@@janelle7778 Olll GREGGS GOTTA MANNGINA. That’s a actual movie quote lol 😂
