On November 20, Adin Ross reacted to the clip on his Kick stream.

During the clip, Pokimane was reacting to a viewer's comments on X, formerly Twitter, about her cookie brand, Myna Snacks. In response, Pokimane called them a "broke boy" and an "idiot:"

"I've got to say this one last time - it makes my brain go boom when people are like, 'Oh, my god! $28 for cookies?!' It's four bags. That's $7 a pack. I know math is hard when you're an idiot. But, if you're a broke boy, just say so."
