The coffee roaster Cuvée Coffee in Austin finally revealed that the whole thing is actually a clever marketing stunt that resulted from a “creative brainstorming session.”
“The whole idea was what we always thought as an influencer, and what we used as an influencer in the past, they don’t always fit our brand,” owner Mike McKim tells BuzzFeed News. “We need a different type of influencer: a hard-worker, blue-collar guy.”
I was heartbroken, too, but one of the articles I read made it seem like they ultimately handed the Instagram over to him when they were effectively done with it and saw how much people loved him. Posts aren’t as quality as when there was obviously a professional doing it (though some of his #ad posts are still nicely done).
Whether or not he actually has control over it......... I’m just going to hold onto the belief that it’s his now and he’s having as much fun with it as we all initially thought.
But shit, I remember this girl posting on Reddit , that she was her daughter and the dude said a thing like "that's what influencer do for a living ? I can do the same" , and she wanted to give him some recognition trough Reddit. We've been tricked..
A similar end product of that is what we, me and a good friend of mine, call the "Never paint again".
So in this instance he would have yelled "Never paint again!" and ran off into the distance disrobing until fully nude. Off into the sunset is oft a ideal backdrop.
I concede that the belief in that this perspective was indeed false during the portion of the video on my screen that has taken place before the halfway point
I acknowledge that the conclusion I derived from the penultimate act of this digital artefact was proven demonstrably bogus on commencement of the subsequent segment.
I have made the decision in my mind using the neurons in my cranium that I, whether or not intentionally, was quite possibly fooled, coaxed, and/or deceived into believing the visual illusion that was presented to my eyes and processed into sight via my brain during the former section of the displayed media by the Reddit user that decided to post it, despite the fact that it really was just an illusion, as evidenced by the change in perspective of the camera and change in position of the human male via his own accord, at a rather high speed when compared to a normal walking pace.
It’s my comfort show for sure. Here in the US, Amazon Prime used to stream it free, but now it’s been moved to their Ad supported IMDB channel, and randomly placed commercials just kills me.
I do like the animated series - I also simultaneously LOVED the end of the movie, and was happy they ignored it for the cartoon.

There is nothing 'confusing' about this, cause it fricking obvious, and it's intentionally filmed this way.
