To encourage clicking, it's a Funny or Die video entitled "Commodore VIC 20".

That sketch reminds me of my days in primary school when my classmates talked about their Spectrums and C64s. I would mention that my family had a Vic-20 and they would say "That's old!" and have "What planet are you on?" expressions on their faces.
And that would have been circa 1988.

I wouldn't know what to do with 20k. And if I may point this out, that program would totally get a SYNTAX ERROR.

I we can ignore the false explanation given in the clip (the 20 does not have any relevance to amounts of memory present in the VIC-20), I'd recommend inserting a 16K RAM expansion into your VIC-20 and trying it out.

Nice... passed it along. Reminds me of my brothers, too, with me usually shaking my head in the background.
