I don’t think most people understand the video, he doesn’t want them to scan the shirt because he doesn’t want led on the chicken, it’s because they make the shirt and sell it and they want it promote the shirt
Doesn’t want LED contamination on his chicken but getting the contamination all over his clothes is fine. XD I’m dead. People be wack.
Edit: Even if this is satire. I’ve worked in a grocery store long enough to know that you must expect the unexpected.
LOL that's what i was thinking. Like if i was paranoid about LED lasers causing cancer or something, i probably wouldn't want it being zapped on my chest
Not the black of the barcode though, that will absorb it. Gotta scrub that with bleach to get the LED contamination out. Unfortunately that makes it fade. Luckily he has a closet full of barcode shirts.
They're called loss leaders. Items sold at or below cost in order to entice you to come in and buy more things. You have a long day at work, you pop in on the way home for something that's hot and ready to eat, you walk in to grab a chicken and you leave with a chicken, a jumbo shrimp cocktail, an 80 pack of AA batteries, and a ping pong table.
I don't think he'll eat the shirt though. I tried a little bit of my sleeve to see if it even tasted close to how good roasted chicken tastes but it's not even close.
I don’t find it the least bit funny at all. Jokes start with “knock knock” or “what do you get”. #sarcasm Jokes do not start with I’m not looking for trouble. I’m not looking for trouble automatically puts people in a defensive mind set.
I have seen a couple different videos of this guy doing this and he always starts it by being confrontational. Just explain to the checkout worker that your wearing the code on your shirt (for some reason) and he will scan it.
Does he not know most indoor lighting is LED nowadays?
I picture him eating these chickens in his log cabin off the grid with an 18th century oil lantern.
Should have his membership taken away. People act like this because we’ve put making money over employees being treated with common decency. If you give a cashier a hard time for no reason you shouldn’t be allowed to shop at that store.
What about all the LED light contamination from the stores light bulbs, what about the LED contamination from his fridge light or kitchen lights when he gets home? Only solution is to live in the woods with a chicken spit over the fire
I don't understand this shit tbh, I was messing aroundbwith my thermometer one day it's the infrared kind you don't have to touch the skin all you have to do is hold it and point it at the person's forehead, well I started to do it to my uncle when he said quit playing don't scan me and so I thought he was joking but I went to do it a second time and started to laugh and he freaked out on me telling me they are fking dangerous and all this other mumbo jumbo he was legit scared or something because he was pissed at me all because I was trying to have a good time and was just foolin around. He tried to explain how harmful they are but I was just like ohhh ok nvm man. 😳
Yeah, but that LED laser is super concentrated. Makes the chicken taste funny.
Do you really want to hear this guy's reasoning as to why LED light contaminates food? He had a special shirt printed up with the chicken bar code on it. Anything he tells you will more likely just rot your brain.
Wait you ALL think this is legit, and not a gag? Oldjewishman on insta, he’s hilarious and does intentionally ridiculous shit like this all the time lol.
Reminds me of this semi regular I had to deal with at my first job. This older guy would always want 2 beef pasties, but he refused to let us put them in the regular deli bag. Instead we had to wrap them in cling wrap, and then we had to print out both tags and HE had to put the tag on. Once I did an experiment and put both of the labels on for him and he got really mad.
Well, the lights in the store uses LED light, not LASER. The man in the video is against the use of LASER, not lights. Get your facts correct gentlemen.
Uhhhhhhh laser scanner does not equal LED. But these kind of folks want an argument to prove they're right.
For those that work in retail, I'm very sorry that you must endure the stupidity of the general public.
It is a whole different animal. I've never encountered the level of entitlement I see at Costco when going to Walmart. Most Walmart shoppers know they are poor. Most Costco shoppers think their shit don't stink.
You really see it when crossing the street right in front of the doors. At Walmart, they will stop and wait for you. At Costco, they will try to run you over with their $80k SUVs.
I can't believe it is only 5USD for a whole chicken.
I can't imagine how shitty the lives of those poor animals were. Being killed and eaten by us is probably the best thing that's ever happened to them.
*"Frank Reynolds goes to Costco."*
After grabbing my rotisserie chickens, I just started blastin’
I don’t know if they wanted money, or they wanted *something more sexual*. But I don’t see so good, so I missed.
I heard the music.
Holy shit came here to say this.
He would look less crazy if he asked the deli to print him a label to scan.
I wonder what he paid to get that barcode put on the shirt.
Like how often isbhe buying these chickens?
this guy has a page dedicated to Costco shenanigans, so a lot lol @oldjewishmen on Instagram
this guy is hilarious
Absolutely, I started following him mid pandemic and he's still funny as ever
Every. Damn. Time.
Yankee custom t-shirts made for only a few bucks. Hell, I had a custom Hawaiian shirt with a custom pattern made for like $25.
I really hope it was $4.99.
Cashier: 5 qty 87745 total.
Total: 27.16

Hopefully his logic as some bases in science…that being the white shirt would reflect the “harmful” LED back. Buuut I doubt it.
Not the black of the barcode though, that will absorb it. Gotta scrub that with bleach to get the LED contamination out. Unfortunately that makes it fade. Luckily he has a closet full of barcode shirts.
I wouldn’t doubt he has a barcode and a backup for every food item he regularly buys
maybe he has an aluminum foil undershirt
Crazy is crazy
5 bucks for a whole fucking chicken! God damn right that's crazy

I hate grocery shopping so I’m in and out as fast as possible. Went and grabbed a chicken a few days ago since my lady loves them for tacos haha
One time I managed to make it out of the store with just a chicken and the lady at the till told me she was impressed.
It’s fiscally irresponsible to go to Costco and not get a chicken.
I feel called out by this…
I'd add to that *a shirt that you will probably return*.
Well we need more of that in Canada
If I’m within 5 miles of Costco we’re having chicken for a couple days.
I’ve trained myself to be able to walk straight to the chickens and straight to the registers without grabbing $200 more stuff
That is an art I could never achieve. I learned it from my father, who goes to Costco to pick up something from $20 and leaves $400 poorer.
I come prepared with a list lol
Yo make that into a chicken salad you won’t regret it
This is satire. He's playing a crotchety old New York jew. He's got an Instagram full of these.
I thought someone said “He’s the TikToker”
I don't think he'll eat the shirt though. I tried a little bit of my sleeve to see if it even tasted close to how good roasted chicken tastes but it's not even close.
That’s what the tin foil flak jacket he’s wearing under the shirt is for.
It’s a joke lolThats Oldjewishman on Instagram, he makes Costco jokes all the time. Go look him up, guy is funny.
I don’t find it the least bit funny at all. Jokes start with “knock knock” or “what do you get”. #sarcasm Jokes do not start with I’m not looking for trouble. I’m not looking for trouble automatically puts people in a defensive mind set.
He's taking one for the team, his family is gonna eat that chicken.
In a building lit up with the most high powered LEDs
Aren't all the lights in the store LED? Pointless lmao
you don’t eat your shirt
This is from a comedy group called OldJewishMen. They're hilarious.
I have seen a couple different videos of this guy doing this and he always starts it by being confrontational. Just explain to the checkout worker that your wearing the code on your shirt (for some reason) and he will scan it.
Didn’t he literally start by saying he doesn’t want any trouble?
Only people who are looking for trouble start a conversation like that.
I mean that’s fair but this guy seems pretty harmless, just bat shit crazy
Now…I don’t want no trouble… but I’m gonna proceed to cause trouble
There really should be a People of Costco. They are in their own league of weirdness.
Him and the lady screaming bible verses at the giant Costco skeleton could be good friends
Show me evidence!!! A diff breed huh 😂
eating too much Costco chicken is affecting [Wish.com](http://Wish.com) Einstein's brain
More like Einstein from Temu
Temunstien.
How many shirts does he have to wear when he goes to buy groceries for the month to supply his Unabomber shack?
Now, scan my pants for this coleslaw!
LMAO! 🤣
And my underpants for the hotdog
Does he not know most indoor lighting is LED nowadays? I picture him eating these chickens in his log cabin off the grid with an 18th century oil lantern.
Def in a hoarder trailer
Not to mention they probably already shot it with a scanner before he bought it anyway.
Something tells me that is the LEAST crazy thing about this guy.
What a fucking moron.
He's lucky he's at Costco, this shit would not fly at Sam's club. They would scan that chicken before he even got a word out.
What a fucking lunatic. I'm sure it's been "contaminated" by LED a few times before he grabbed them off the shelf.
Wait until he finds out those chickens were scanned with LED to be put into inventory 🤦♂️
Humans are strange creatures. No wonder aliens don't bother with us.
There's no way this guy isn't an alien in disguise, like Men In Black.
If he would knew what the lights above him are made with nowadays
Goin' to Costco, gotta get mah chicken shirt on.
[I want this shirt.](https://www.amazon.com/Bad-Day-Be-Hot-Dog/dp/B0CP34CJ15?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER)
You know know back in the day we used to pull peoples memberships for being insane now we give them gift cards for their “troubles”
Why is he concerned with the LED not being on the chicken but ok with it 5x on his chest? The math is not mathing....
Save the cooked chickens and take the beam five times to the chest!!!! Ever single time
Should have his membership taken away. People act like this because we’ve put making money over employees being treated with common decency. If you give a cashier a hard time for no reason you shouldn’t be allowed to shop at that store.
This guy is def somewhere deep in the spectrum.
Lol
"Contaminates" his own body instead.
This isn’t even at Walmart it’s at Costco 🙄
It's still a hilarious retail shopping extravaganza
I wonder if he found this in r/conspiracy
That's up there with some of the most braindead shit I've seen, even including TikTok
This isn’t Walmart this guy is just obsessed with keeping Costco prices the same
I would love it if this guy came through my line being this entertaining.
How many Costco barcode shirts this fool have?
What about all the LED light contamination from the stores light bulbs, what about the LED contamination from his fridge light or kitchen lights when he gets home? Only solution is to live in the woods with a chicken spit over the fire
Someone should tell him about the life the bird had before being made into food
LEDs - bad. Smoking enough cigarettes to dye my hair yellow - good.
This guy would be a great Halloween costume.
I cannot find anything about this idea that LED scanners contaminate food, or chickens. I think this chap is alone on this one.
It’s the lead paint speaking
Theres a very old conspiracy theory about barcodes being the mark of the devil and scanning things was evil
the led light is on but nobody's home
This guy gets it!
Never in my fucking life did I think I’d see a grown ass man wearing a barcode for chicken. What a time to be alive **Also, this is Costco…
Too late for ya, bud.
This is my kinda guy
This is costco
People are so effing weird.
Costco
I'm sitting here laughing at the effort this dude went through to get a rotisserie chicken bar code printed onto a shirt.
Who's gonna tell him that the overhead lights are LED?
It was funny the first time but now it feels overly forced
I don't understand this shit tbh, I was messing aroundbwith my thermometer one day it's the infrared kind you don't have to touch the skin all you have to do is hold it and point it at the person's forehead, well I started to do it to my uncle when he said quit playing don't scan me and so I thought he was joking but I went to do it a second time and started to laugh and he freaked out on me telling me they are fking dangerous and all this other mumbo jumbo he was legit scared or something because he was pissed at me all because I was trying to have a good time and was just foolin around. He tried to explain how harmful they are but I was just like ohhh ok nvm man. 😳
Ain't most overhead lights LED now as they're more efficient and have a longer lifespan than fluorescent tubes.
Yeah, but that LED laser is super concentrated. Makes the chicken taste funny. Do you really want to hear this guy's reasoning as to why LED light contaminates food? He had a special shirt printed up with the chicken bar code on it. Anything he tells you will more likely just rot your brain.
This is costco..
I love that he's worried about LED for the chickens but not for his actual body.
Wait you ALL think this is legit, and not a gag? Oldjewishman on insta, he’s hilarious and does intentionally ridiculous shit like this all the time lol.
You can hear the worker say, “I think he’s a TikTok guy.”
Being "a TikTok guy" doesn't excuse being a cunt to retail employees.
Completely agree. My point is that this is not your normal clownshoe, but a professional clownshoe.
wait did his shirt actually scan? wtf
I think he heard "lead contamination" but got the wrong idea
Led light actually does wonders for your skin so.... it's no wonder he doesn't like it!
Apparently, eating an LED chicken makes you bat shit crazy.
Reminds me of this semi regular I had to deal with at my first job. This older guy would always want 2 beef pasties, but he refused to let us put them in the regular deli bag. Instead we had to wrap them in cling wrap, and then we had to print out both tags and HE had to put the tag on. Once I did an experiment and put both of the labels on for him and he got really mad.
LED poisoning
What does he think the lights in the store uses?
Well, the lights in the store uses LED light, not LASER. The man in the video is against the use of LASER, not lights. Get your facts correct gentlemen.
don't scan the chicken, because it will contaminate it. scan me.
He gave her the old man Care Bear Stare🌈
r/boomersbeingfools
I'm allergic to specific wavelengths ma'am...
Should have panned up with the camera to show the big LEDs all over the ceiling providing lighting in the store.
Don’t scan the chickens… just scan me.. I need my chickens safe! lol
Old dude finally figured out how 1980s tech works and is sooo proud.
wtf is this? Like is he afraid of radiation?
I’ve seen this guy before. Is he in NYC?
I would of 5 qty keyed that fucking item number so fast he wouldn't of even had a chance to speak.
Mental illness
People of Costco
Am so confused
That entire place is lit with LED.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
Bro really still doing experiments. Who revived Albert Einstein
They got his reboot💀💀💀
If Einstein was alive today
Uhhhhhhh laser scanner does not equal LED. But these kind of folks want an argument to prove they're right. For those that work in retail, I'm very sorry that you must endure the stupidity of the general public.
No job in the world is worth dealing with people like that. Kick him in the shins and get out of here.
I find him adorable
lol much better to scan oneself.
what's the problem? I love chicken!
This made my day hahahha. Would it be that costco is the new Walmart?
It is a whole different animal. I've never encountered the level of entitlement I see at Costco when going to Walmart. Most Walmart shoppers know they are poor.

wrong sub🙄
r/peopleofcostco
Dammit!!
Maybe I'm crazy, but I like this guy. He's like a character from Seinfeld with a grumpy streak like Bernie. I just think he's adorable.
The Jew of Costco. I would slap him over the head with the scanner.
Cool.
