Controversial internet personalities the Island Boys have once again gone viral on social media. On February 26, 2024, Jack Doherty shared a clip from his recent IRL stream in which the content creators were seen purchasing bottles of water. However, when one of the Island Boys tried to pay, his card seemed to get declined.
Sharing his thoughts on the situation, Jack Doherty said:
"Sure you got that? You won't get declined? That should be at most $11 with tax. (The Island Boy says, 'Charge declined.') Oh, my god! He got declined for $20 of water. I got you, little bro. I did it. I did it. It's okay, bro. Maybe one day."
Numerous netizens have commented on the Kick streamers' clip, with X user @Hotchy6 writing:

The latter also accused Venegas of allegedly kicking his girlfriend, McKinley Richardson, by exclaiming:
"Nice f**king try, dumb a*s. Nice try! Oh, he is kicking! McKinley, McKinley, McKinley! Yo, watch the f**k out! There's a girl in the car, you f**king dumb a*s! Yo, there's a girl! You're kicking her! You're kicking my f**king girlfriend, you b**ch! Don't f**cking kick her! Don't f**king kick her, you b**ch!"
On February 26, 2024, Jack Doherty posted a 14-second clip from his recent livestream, during which the Island Boys' card seemingly got declined while buying $20 water.
