Back in Celebration, and
it's time for Adam to have a relaxing day. You know, it's hard work traveling and vacationing with elderly parents, Adam needs a break! Time to start the day at 3:30pm and cruise around Celebration to look at Christmas decor. Yup, that's the vlog. Oh, and getting his customary at-home dinner at Publix. You know it's a thrilling vlog when you including "shopping at Publix" in the title.
Yes, although the previous day's travel vlog only did 32k views in the first 24 hours, Adam couldn't muster the energy to hit up a WDW park or even Disney Springs to check out Christmas decor there. He could barely crawl into the clown car and drive around Celebration. Looking for those signs, maybe?
It's "Young Adam", by the way:

But before he really gets into that, he must head downtown and slide back into his OCD routine of parking and coffee. And he leans into it, otherwise how could this be a THIRTY THREE minute vlog about some Christmas decorations and getting dinner at Publix, right? Yes:
- he lived in downtown Celebration for 3 yrs before he bought his house (I guess his house is in the "suburbs" of Celebration? The "countryside" of Celebration?)
- parking in downtown Celebration is hard!
- they will tow you!
- parking isn't so hard now because he has "mini Marge" his glorified golf cart
- Celebration has spaces dedicated to parking glorified golf carts
- those spaces have signs
- the car on the sign looks just like his glorified golf cart
- sometimes full sized real cars park in those spots!
- make fun of signs that prohibit things
- the old "if you're playing a drinking game..." bit
Adam purposely films this menorah and also purposely
does not mention it at all. Perhaps he's trying to figure out what character from Beauty and The Beast it was?

Adam purposely films this and purposely mentions what it is and that it's "the reason for the season"

His coffee is not a regular coffee (because he's "off the rails"), it's a peppermint mocha latte for that sugary carb burst. Then he shows another nativity scene and then this sign:

It's like a week with Rev. Jim really rubbed off on him...I wonder if the family or any portion of the family went to church services while at Aulani?
I'm sure he doesn't even remember which houses he's already looked at, but he goes and rides and walks past them all again anyway. Of course he has to mention Jeater Bend, how it isn't what is used to be, and goes by to see how it's fallen from grace. He stops at a house that is mainly Christmas Vacation themed. That movie is possibly the most quotable film of all time, but the only ones he can pull out are the most famous profane one and the most famous sexual one, like a 10 year old boy.
At one point he makes an very odd, space-y, machine-like sound when he pans the camera from one side of the street to the other...he's never done that before. It was almost like the sound he makes when he turns the camera around into selfie mode, but it was just panning from one side of the street to the other. You'd have to see/hear to really understand how bizarre, childlike and unhinged it is...20:45 mark exactly.
I can't imagine being 50 years old, not living in an urban setting most of my life, and being excited about spotting deer walking around. I mean, he's got to be faking enthusiasm for this, right?

He drives by them, filming, then parks, gets out
and approaches them on foot, saying "hey sweetie":

Interesting that he approaches deer and women he's interested in romantically in the same way. But seriously, just leave the deer alone, they don't need you walking up to them with your camera, talking to them.
He does realize they don't understand English, right?
Does he think they will let him pet them or something?
Hey, fun fact, this water tower does not have water in it. Were you aware?

10 oz. of hummus, and
16 oz. of artichoke and spinach dip.

He goes by the Crunchmaster crackers just to show them, but says he doesn't need to buy any because he's got several bags at home (I thought he couldn't keep food at home otherwise he eats it uncontrollably?). He also says "
they're not crackers" - it literally says they are
crackers on the package...

Then he grabs his massive salad (it's not Boar's Head this time, he says he's staying away from the Boar's Head - I think he saw someone in his comments alert him to the news a while ago about Boar's Head's issues in their processing plants).
This "salad" is full of bacon, eggs, and cheddar cheese, plus whatever that lovely packet of creamy dressing is.

and just for an "extra" snack in case he gets hungry in between eating the above, he grabs these potato chips:

Can't forget the standard can of chickpeas even though he's already got the tub of hummus, right?
View attachment 3329016 q
And the cottage cheese,
have to have that essential ingredient in the patented "ATW PUBLIX Dinner". They are buy one get one, but Adam doesn't think he has a Publix card...
yes, he shops exclusively for grocery items at Publix and does not have a loyalty card. But then realizes he probably does and just doesn't remember (which means he might as well not have one, since he never uses it)

Dessert, anyone?
(Yes, he bought both of them)

And to wash it all down....WATER!
Just joking, it's Arizona Green Tea with 34g of sugar
View attachment 3329013 q
In between grabbing all these items, Adam is roaming the store, picking out items
and doing "comedy bits" about them, very much like when he makes fun of signs that prohibit things. For example, he sees peanut butter than says it's 100% peanuts, and does a little routine about how if you're buying peanut butter, you don't want the one that's 36% peanuts, you want the one that is 100% peanuts. Yeah.
Now think about the MASSIVE amount of food he just bought...and then read what he says as he walks to the clown car:
"Alright, successfully got a meal for the night, and I got some cookies for the next few days. No way I'm going to devour all those cookies in one night, but I will devour a good portion of them. The salad and the chickpeas and the other things that I purchased, I'll just be chowing down on, watching The Grinch, Jim Carrey's The Grinch."
"A" meal for the night...holy crap, I can't believe he eats all that in one night, and says he's going to eat half the cookies too. The vlog is over.
