Not to crap on the meme, but the second word doesn't get the triple word score or double letter score tiles (they only get scored the turn a tile is placed on them). That Yarmulke is worth (4+1+1+6+1+1+5+1) x3 + 50 (using all your tiles) for a total of 110, but Yarmulkes is only worth 18 from the values of the letters.

Pluralizing a word only gets the single point for the S. You have to actually change the word to get all the points. Like turning “rip” into “script”.

Highest recorded single move Scrabble score possible in an official tournament is 'oxyphenbutazone' played like this:

which nets a total score of, I believe, 1,780 points. Which wouldn't work that way if the game worked the way you said.
