- (employee) Nah. - (caller) So what's the problem?
- (employee, amplified) Dickhead! - (laughs) This is so funny.
- I've seen the meme, but I had no idea where it originated from.
- (caller, distorted) Just don't put them shits
in my pizza, bruh. - Why all the distortion?
- (employee) Bruh, just explain to me how the [bleep]
pizza can be boneless. - (amused) What?
- (caller) If it don't got bone in it, it's (distorted) boneless.
- He's not wrong. It is boneless.
- (employee) What school you go to?
- Is this like a real phone conversation?
- This is not a real phone call.
- (caller) Just make my shit (distorted) boneless.
- This is a thing. I've seen it.
It's clickin'. Oh my god.
Try to eat some boneless pizza after this.
- I should've, like, smoked before I watched that or something,
'cause I really don't understand what just happened.
- (FBE) And now here's another call made by the same person
but this time ordering something else.
- Oh jeez. The followup. The big sequel.
- This is, like, scaring me. I don't understand.
I feel like I'm gonna have weird dreams about this tonight.
(line ringing)
- (employee) Hello, this--
- (caller) 'Ey, Chick-fil-A? - They're at Popeyes.
- (caller) Look, I need a delivery.
Lemme get uhhh...
chicken (distorted) biscuit. - (snickering) Biscuit.
- (caller) ...chicken (distorted) biscuit.
- I do not understand this.
- (caller) Make sure it got no meat. - What?!
- (employee) So what the [bleep] you want on it?
- Is that the dude from Naruto? What?
- (caller) Just make it. It a come out good.
- (chuckles)
- (caller) Bruh, just make my damn chicken (distorted) biscuit.
- (laughs)
- (employee) You asked for a chicken biscuit...
but don't want the chicken or the biscuit. - (chuckles)
- (caller) On my life, y'all [bleep] food services ain't shit.
- (laughing)
I can watch these all day.
- I don't understand, but I'm so on board for it.
- These are great, 'cause they're just [bleep] stupid.
- Sometimes with the internet,
I really don't know what the [bleep] is going in their head.
This is the perfect prime example.
- (FBE) And now we're gonna show you one more of these calls
from the same person. - Okay, cool.
- I don't understand. Who is this person?
(line ringing)
- (employee) Buongiorno. - (laughs) It's Mario.
- (caller) I'm sorry, I don't speak italics.
- (laughs)
- (employee) What kind of pizza you want?
- (caller) I need a pizza with, uhhh...
no cheese and no meat.
- (chuckles)
- (caller) And also, make sure it
(distorted) boneless. - What is the boneless thing?
- He's back with the boneless pizza.
- (employee) ...boneless?
- (caller) You gon' put bones in my shit? - (snickers)
- (employee) Maybe I will. - Oh!
- (caller) You not [bleep] with me on this.
- (chuckles)
- (employee, distorted) You think I give a [bleep]?
- (laughs)
- (employee, distorted) You think I give a [bleep]?
- What the hell is happening?
- (employee) ...right now. I give you
boneless ass whooping. - (gasps)
- (caller) Special carryout discount. - Get it, Mario!
- (caller) I'ma just get Chinese. They don't put bone in my shit.
- (chuckles)
- (caller) Usually.
- What? That was so great. That one's so funny.
I love that the restaurant owner is fighting back with this guy.
I mean, this guy deserves it.
- Maybe they just get funnier the longer you watch them,
'cause you're just so confused, you just start laughing.
'Cause you're really uncomfortable with everything going on.
- This guy certified meme lord.
- (FBE) So we're gonna show you more videos in a second,
but these all came from a YouTube channel named Sethical.
- Sethical. Okay.
Does he only do prank phone calls to fast food places?
But those are all staged. Those aren't real.
- (FBE) So Sethical did make a call like this as a joke
and then decided to make a video recreation of it.
- Ah. So this once was a legitimate prank call
that then turned into a meme prank call.
- (FBE) Now, that video has over 2 million views on YouTube.
- Not surprised. Deserves billions.
- (FBE) And he's been making a bunch of content like this
using a character you might recognize
from the video game Crash Bandicoot. - Oh, yeah. Aku Aku.
- Aku Aku. Oh my gosh. I loved Aku Aku.
It's the best powerup in Crash Bandicoot.
- (FBE) Sethical's videos make a lot of references to memes.
But now they have gone so viral themselves
that there are even people making memes about his content.
So we're gonna show you some of those now.
- Okay. Everything is a meme now. This is the world we live in.
- His goal is to make fun of memes, make references to memes.
And then his own stuff became a meme.
Circle of life.
- (employee) Name one pizza that got bone on it.
- (caller) Just don't put those shits in my pizza, bro.
How many times I gotta say it?
- This is so good.
- The fact that people take the time to make this is so funny.
- (employee) ...pizza can be boneless.
- (caller) If it don't got bone in it, it's boneless.
- (chuckles) - (employee) What school
you go to? - (caller) Dog, I don't understand...
- Oh my gosh.
- (caller) Just make my shit BONELESS. - (chuckles)
- (caller) DEAD ASS.
(employee speaks incomprehensibly)
(loud explosion) - Oh my god.
(loud explosion)
- Oh, that escalated quickly.
- This is, like, the WEIRD internet.
Where does this content come from?
Who sits at their computer or whatever and creates this.
- You know it's a good meme if you get SpongeBob involved.
- (caller) The [bleep]?
- Oh, don't ruin SpongeBob for me.
- (Mr. Krabs) Can I help you?
- (customer) Yeah, I'm ready to order.
- (Mr. Krabs) What'll you have?
- (customer) I'll take a... - (caller) ...boneless pizza.
- (Mr. Krabs) What did you say? - (customer) I said...
- (caller) Let me get that pizza boneless. - (chuckles)
- (SpongeBob) I heard his order, Mr. Krabs.
He said... - (caller) Let me get it boneless.
- (laughs giddily)
- (caller) Don't put those...
- (parroting) "...shits in my pizza, bro."
That's like a new caption for an Instagram photo.
- (caller) DEAD ASS. - That's a good one.
You could put SpongeBob on any meme, and it's gonna be viral.
- The farther it goes, it's just so insane.
And you don't know what's happening.
And that's what's so funny, is it's just lost its origin.
- I think my arm's broke.
- Some Harry Potter, okay.
- (Gilderoy Lockhart) I will fix that arm of yours straight away.
- Oh no.
- It's boneless. Boneless Potter.
- (caller) Look, let me get that...
boneless. - (chuckling)
- (caller) Boneless. - (chuckling)
AAH! That works so perfectly!!!
- That was good. That was the best one.
- I feel [bleep] in the head right now a little bit.
I'm like, "I don't really know what's going on."
- All of these memes were so unexpectedly great.
- All my memes are (distorted) boneless.
- (FBE) So people have even started calling up pizza places
and asking them for boneless pizza due to all this.
- I'm sure Domino's, Pizza Hut have been blown up.
And it's like, "If anyone says (distorted) 'boneless,'
hang up the phone."
- (FBE) You can find dozens and dozens of these calls on YouTube.
So what do you think about how widespread this has become?
- I don't get it.
How is this a thing? I don't understand.
- If it's like the same joke--
It's like, "Oh, is your refrigerator running?"
It just became another classic joke that people are gonna tell.
Like, "Oh, you remember the (distorted) boneless
pizza calls we used to make as a kid?"
- The cool thing about memes is that they're all just a big
[bleep] inside joke.
- It's so fascinating how many different niches
there are on YouTube of just weird things that 10 people find
and they're like, "We should do this too."
And then they do it and 10 people find each one of those.
And it just spreads to become this giant in-joke
across the internet.
- (FBE) So finally, this is the kind of thing people do
and depending may not even know
why a trend they're participating in became a trend.
- Yeah.
It's become so big,
they don't even know where the source is from.
- (FBE) Some make this prank call not knowing or even realizing
it started with Sethical.
So would you say that when it comes to trends and memes
that it's still an issue of even knowing who started things?
- Wow, that's, like, a really interesting thought.
In a way, I feel like everyone's kind of like a sheep sort of,
and they kinda jump trends without really knowing
where it comes from or why.
- To be fair, no matter how weird it is,
if something gets picked up on
and people don't even know what's going on,
I would be pissed.
If I was this guy, I'd be like, "Credit, bitch."
- Half the time I use a meme, I don't know where it came from.
And I mean, I wish there was a better way
to credit the person who originated the meme.
- It's hard to distinguish once it's already rolling,
once there's already thousands of re-tweets.
You can't really track where it starts.
So it's hard to give someone credit.
I've never heard of Sethical. They're not famous.
They're not a celebrity.
And if they started something where thousands of people
are doing it and actually making these phone calls,
I feel like he should be credited in some way.
- You can just take pride in knowing that, "You know what,
this is a meme. People don't know that it comes from me.
But people have turned it into a meme and now are spreading it."
It'd be dope to be recognized as a meme lord.
But in reality, if my meme just went viral
and everyone was [bleep] with it, I would have no problem,
as long as people were enjoying it and having fun with it.
