Vote for Me, I Want Cheese

Pepsi SKY ZONE PLEASE PRESS BUTTON FOR SERVICE

A woman in a red SKY ZONE shirt presents a pepperoni pizza in a Pepsi-branded break room, then the video abruptly cuts to a dim, extreme close-up of a man’s face. The absurd contrast pairs a mundane pizza moment with the audio’s bizarre presidential plea: “Actually I want to cheese. Vote for me President of the United States. I am Brent Peterson.” It is used as a surreal reaction to something confusing, awkward, or unexpectedly unhinged.

Actually I want to cheese. Vote for me President of the United States. I am Brent Peterson.
