== Description ==

The description of this video was written by [[Krebs Gorlon]].

<blockquote>A wise man once said, “Brevity is the soul of wit.” Well, if that’s the case, judging by the length of this video these are four of the most witless clown-fools on the internet today. Mike, Jay, Jack and Rich Evans are perhaps the dumbest humans that have ever krebbed in my shorts. Hi I’m retired underground illegal casino pit boss Krebs Gorlon, and today write to you from my home in war-torn Haiti to tell you about this newest episode of Best of the Worst. I’m farting as I type this due to the bacteria ravaging my colon, but I will try to make sense. Boy, it sure has been a long time since we’ve seen the boys watch three feature films, eh? But alas, today they are spinning the Wheel of the Worst” again… There’s something about old, undiscovered tapes that makes my taint tingle with the titillating excitement of that first time killed a man. Rich and Jack display a palpable level of non-excitement at this prospect in our video’s opening. Trust me, I get it. Sometimes these tapes can be a nightmare. Sometimes they can be a lot of fun though. It’s about as exciting as being forced to play a game of Russian Roulette with your precious time and sanity. Mike (the ugly fat one) appears to be the most unhinged of them all in this episode. You see Jay (the hippie clown) had haplessly purchased a case of “Hazy IPAS”. Silly little man that he is, he purchased solely on the style of the packaging. A lovely hazy as it is though. Voodoo Ranger’s Tropical Force. A product made by New Belgium brewing. Note: They are a NON-Sponsor. In fact, we’ll probably get sued showing what vile filth comes out of Mike’s mouth after drinking a dozen of these. So essentially what was cut from the video was Mike berating Jay on his foolish purchase. You see, the supply in the RLM booze fridge with thin at best. Jay bought beer cause he liked the green/yellow package design and was thrilled at the sight of a skeleton aviator on the can. What he didn’t check was the ABV, which is at a very healthy 9.5%. Mike’s been around the block a few times more than Jay so that’s the very first thing Mike checks. After our Half in the Bag “What are these super bottles?!” incident when Mike accidentally drank 9 beers that were 12%, he knows to check. ABV stands for alcohol by volume. It also stands for how soon Mike becomes a slurring monster who can’t say the word “apartment” and passes out into a bonfire suffering 2nd degree burns on his wang and dumplings rendering all his man-parts useless. However, Mike faced a difficult choice: Deal with the unbearable state of sobriety or drink the beers that are 9.5% and hope for the best. He chose the latter. Krebs does not approve. The results will be apparent as the night goes on. In the end though, what we have here is another classic Wheel of the Worst. So settle in for the next 90 minutes with your favorite beverage and snack and prepare to laugh, cry, and soil yourself with laughter that will give you nightmares for the rest of your sad lives.

Krebs alludes to the fact that the last “normal” Best of the Worst episode was ''[[Hawk the Slayer and THE ACTOR FROM MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE with the X-ray Eyes]]'', not counting the [[Halloween 2023|Halloween special]] and the [[Christmas Plinketto|Christmas-themed]] [[Plinketto]]. ''Hawk'' was released over 10 months prior to this one.

Mike is, in fact, [[drinks|seen drinking a Voodoo Ranger]] in the video. Jay is drinking a New Glarus Spotted Cow in this video, but is later seen drinking the Voodoo Ranger in [[Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire]].

The “What are these super bottles?!” Incident may refer to the Halloween BOTW episode{{Which episode|date=June 2024}} that was filmed over two days after spectacular drunkenness.

== Trivia ==

According to commenter ThatPazuzu, lyme disease is commonly presented as a scapegoat disease for people who have an undiagnosed problem, as the disease has incredibly generic, vague, and broad symptoms. This explains the clip of the woman who “can’t turn [her] head the wrong way”, as she complains about a list of actual treatments she has been suggested to take.<span id="thumbnail"></span>
=== Thumbnail ===

In the thumbnail, the Wheel's center image, which usually has [[Cameron Mitchell]] but is blank in this episode, has been replaced with a silhouette of a tick, foreshadowing the reveal that the final tape is on lyme disease.
