An executive at a typewriter company is coming to the realization that his business hasn't sold a typewriter since 1997. His inability to provide for his wife and kid fills him with such a depression that he ends his life by a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, realizing he is worth more dead than alive. Screen fades and transitions to hipsters in Brooklyn reading about his death on their Macbooks. Typewriters immediately replace vinyl records for top sales of the year.

A kid lies to his school chums about his Uncle at Nintendo and exploits this fictitious family connection to gain respect on the playground and to bully other children. However, when the upcoming games he lies about start coming out for real, he starts getting a little freaked out. Then games start getting released that mention him by name and portray him in unflattering ways. He becomes the laughingstock of the school and eventually the humiliation becomes so severe that he shuts down from interactions with the other children completely. It turns out one of the kids he bullied really DID have an uncle at Nintendo (it was the quiet Japanese boy who never speaks the entire episode and who gets called racist names by the liar kid). The Japanese kid smiles to himself as the formerly popular liar kid sulks in the back of the class.

That explains how Lester the Unlikely got made.

Be Careful What You Wish For Cuz You Just Might Get It

A man receives a genie lamp by accident when it is shipped to him instead of the Sega Game Gear power supply he actually ordered on eBay. He rubs the lamp and the genie grants him one wish. A struggling musician for over 20 years, his one wish is that his album finally be released to music stores on a major label and that it breaks sales records.

The genie grants his wish.

The album in fact breaks sales records; it manages to sell in the negatives. See what happened is, zero people purchased the album. However, several people shoplifted the album and returned it to the store for a gift card, resulting in the only album in music history to sell negative copies.
