* PoesLaw: He encounters several bizarre articles about the supposed evils of ''VideoGame/{{Fortnite}}'', one of them claims that a bunch of women are petitioning to get the game banned in the UK because their boyfriends are "being brainwashed" into playing it in favor of their girlfriends. Considering how outlandish many of the articles on the game have been so far, he can't tell if it's a satirical article or not.

** His "Parents Upset Over ''VideoGame/{{Fortnite}}''" video opens with a brief one towards the Sinclair Broadcasting Group, an uber-conservative news media outlet that buys local news to turn them into a PropagandaMachine by making everyone read the same script. Didn't expect that in a Chadtronic video.

Despite the fact that no person even if they have SuperOCD has the time or money to do that, and they clearly meant to say that kids should brush their teeth twice per day.
