You just reminded me there's a video on youtube of a guy literally tearing a Juicero apart and it's hilarious:

Probably one of AvE's best videos. I was just chatting about the peak Silicon Valley insanity that was Juicero yesterday.

That thing was built like a Bugatti. And he's like "why not use a roller instead of a press??".

It really is, he is equally impressed and disgusted with this one, a rare combination. Most impressively built stuff isn't so wasteful. And most useless junk isn't nearly so well made.

I think they were trying to turn food into a subscription service? Having complete control over a person's food supply sounds like an 8 million dollar idea. It still sounds like a really bad idea, but I think that is how Juicero was pitched to investors, rather than a spaceship that squeezes bags marginally worse than a person can.

Even when first announced, it became a meme among friends Juicero (and Ubeam) were peak Silicon Valley.

I love AvE and somehow understand exactly what he's saying whilst simultaneously having no idea what he's saying half the time.

Does anyone know if this is some regional slang? Or is AvE just very unique in how he speaks?

[switchbak]

He's mostly putting it on, with the "vidjaeos, J-A-Pan" and such.

He does combine a bunch of Quebecois and Western rural slang in a very impressive way though!

It is very Canadian and is full to the brim with references to the Red Green Show, including his sign-off telling you to “keep your stick on the ice”.

Aha! Thank you :)

Thank you for posting this. I've seen it a few times already, but I'm watching it again, and it's cracking me up, yet again.

Holy shit that's amazingly funny.

My personal highlight as he's pushing the button wildly, "oh for fuck's sake. The mash harder button. Es funktioniert nicht"

Also subtly hilarious that the machine more and more covered in root juice as he goes. God that's good.

The auto-generated captions have a scunthorpe problem; censoring a British & Australian term for a cigarette that has a more offensive meaning in the US.
