Mad Max type universe commercial parody
In a desolate, post-apocalyptic Chicago where a comet has vaporized all water, Mad Matt runs a one-of-a-kind emporium selling brutalized sporting goods and leather bondage gear to raiders battling for survival. With his charismatic, wild-eyed charm and a motley crew of fearsome customers—including a crossbow-wielding biker and a gimp-suited driver—Matt navigates the chaos of a world fueled by barter, blood, and scarce resources. This darkly comedic, Mad Max-inspired adventure blends gritty survival with outrageous style, where every piece of gear could mean the difference between life and death in the wasteland.

In the before times I really struggled to find a market for sporting goods AND leather bondage gear. But, since all the water dried up, I cant keep enough stainless steel studded jock straps in stock.
