I was wondering myself if this was a spoof, fueled by a load of materials left around from a legitimate job... and someone with too much time on their hands.

This is what happens when you get someone who's eager to save money - they cut costs on material, labour, and know-how.

Well, now I can stop using my imagination thinking even more nefarious reasons why someone would build a structure with so many weak points, or maybe just for the purpose just to make a promo video of tae kwon do school destroying that shed... :EEK!
osb is allowed for wall and roof sheathing. plywood though better isn't going to help this guy.

I prefer this type of shoddy construction, where you can see it is shoddy through and through, vs the typical shoddy workmanship which is covered by some nice trim and a good coat of paint.
'keystone' update - the 'central' support beam has been cut out and merged with another. I 'fully support this decision'. Too bad it will not be fully supporting much of anything anymore.
Well, this looks promising, doesn't it? Shingles! yay!
It can only mean he plans on going up on the roof at some point
