ok I don't mean to be rude, John, but Anastasia is totally not pronounced like anaesthesia... it's more like A-na-sta-si-ya.. better luck next time... :D
@CakeBeneathTheIcing Well we have the same name here in Bulgaria, and I'm certain it is pronounced like I said in most (if not all) countries where Slavonic languages are spoken (perhaps with slight changes due to the overall structure of the language).
So in my attempt to pinpoint the day i became a nerdfighter i remembered the first video i watched (that had been up recently) so either march 17,18, or 19 hmmm
he probrobly did wihtout ever knowing where the library was. His dad would have been the one to tell him where it was, but his dad died when he was 3, so even if his dad had told him, he wouldn't have remembered. His mum might also have told him, but she died when he 8, and people don't usually remember everything they are told when they are 8.
Why would anybody have told him? You don't usually tell kids where importand an valuable things are kept if it is a seacret
@SomeoneBeginingWithI But if your mother told you about a library worth A LOT of money, I think you'd probably remember it. And he might also have had an uncle or something who knew but died.
when he said 'never be russian and names anastassia' it literally sent a chill down my spine becasue, and i swear to god this is true, i AM form russia and my name IS anastassia :S
so we have to do a project for AP EURO and rank these Russian rulers my teacher gave us basd on our favorite. i think its safe to say i did a happy dance when i saw Ivan the Terrible on the list!
we have to do a project with a great villan in history and i wanna do ivan the terrible now! im so gonna show this to my class and i wonder how weirded out they'll be when they hear about the thread in your pants...
My best friend Vitaly is from Russia and his sister's name is Anastasia. They are the most amaing people i've met in my life. Yes i just put down all nerdfighters. Sorry! I love you too.
Sounds like an awesome plot for a book. A bunch of nerdfighters solve the puzzle to find the legendary library. Like The Da Vinci Code except with nerdfighters and less religion based stuff.
@batnittbegins Well, more like a sequel. They found out about Gussie Manlove before. I already have a title, "Don't Forget To Look Under Moscow" and for Gussie Manlove "Wait, You're Serious?"
Are there any Russian Nerdfighters here? If so, you should all go against John's wishes, actually FIND the library, and prove how made-of-awesome you really are. Well, first go to Moscow if you don't live there. I forgot that step. :)
The single greatest crime ever committed by mankind was when the Roman empire went catholic and the library at Alexandria was ordered burned. At that moment the first centuries of human history was made "pre". Disgusting.
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. First Alexandria, now THIS?! Dear History, Stop messing with libraries. They're like my home awa- no wait...they're my home. Yeah. Stop messing with my homes XD Love, Rini ... I now would like to know ABOUT this library as well since this is the first I've *EVER* heard of it. P.S. Funny how Anastasia means "resurrection" or "she will rise again" and they all end up getting killed v.v
Here's a suggestion, use 200 lbs of TNT blow a huge hole in russian area, then dig underground until you find some tunnels. send in some russians and nerdfighters to find the library and then when you find it, take all the books and become rich!
@beaviz810izback Woah. Like, have you ever been to a form of education? Clearly not if the insult you can use is "spouting regurgitated shit". Jesus. You think John and Hank are brainwashing us? We're sheep being herded? We're buying their "crap" because they're telling us to? God. You really are an idiot. We watch John and Hank cause we want to. We buy their stuff because it's awesome. Awesome awesome awesome. Want me to say it again? Ok then. Awesome. Go run in front of a moving truck and dro
At first I was like, "What? He wants us to FIND this freaking library, is he nuts?" But then the little box came up and I was like, "Oh, that makes more sense."
@GrilledCheeseHeart Tell me about it! It's just like how Rasputin - after all those poisonings, beatings, and other fun murder plots - froze to death after being tossed into a lake. (Although I've also read that he drowned. Either way, that's just ridiculous.) Historic Russians sure do have some odd ways of dying.
@pepsicola1295 it's been speculated that the poisen in the cake they baked him evaporated before it could be consumed and he was shitfaced and gigantic so that would explain how he took all the beatings and gun shots XD
In short Hank, if the legends are true there are right now underneath Moscow BILLIONS of dollars worth of books and BILLIONS of unspoken 'in your pants' jokes just waiting to be discovered.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You think John is just a little bit into himself? I do. I HATE you vlogbrothers. You talk too fast and you swindle weak minded sheep kids into buying your CRAP so you can say you are benevolent and give it to charity while all you really do is live off of your nerdfighter minions. Making a living off of small time charity. I guess you've got it ALL figured out huh? Your nerdfighter minions will eat out of your hands like conservatives will with George Dubya Bush about 9/11.
Anyway, if you hate the vlogbrothers so much then what are you doing watching this? Either you're secretly a fan or you're just here to troll. Since you're probably a troll I just wanted to say this: Quit hating on anything that's the least bit popular, it makes you look pathetic. How about you try to find something better to do with your time than troll, I mean it's your life but perhaps you should make better use of it.
@beaviz810izback decepticon much???? if you hate nerfighteria so much (which in itself is near impossible), then DO NOT WATCH... Youtube gives you the option to pick what you want to watch or not wath what you dont what too. finally we arent idiots.... WE"RE NERDS and we're proud to be!!!! so there :P
@smcgaff222. None of you have a mind of your own! "Decepticon" durrrrrr!! Have you thought about NOT spouting and regurgitating shit from idiots that you worship? DO YOU HAVE A MIND OF YOUR OWN? It's either epic or awesome or you gotta say teh instead of the because it's "kewl" or the countless other trendy STUPID crap that everybody pukes up. Let me guess, the MAJORITY of people you come across do it so you MUST do it too right? Yoiu fucking sheep. The majority is ALWAYS right, right?
@beaviz810izback we dont have one mind buddy!!! we like different things as do john and hank. they dont force anything on us and we dont force anything on one another or them. another thing i hate the majority of the trendy stupid crap. This is a community of different people with different interests, ideas, and personalities. its not about what everyone thinks is cool, its what we as individuals think is cool, and just because we all think this is cool doesnt mean we dont have our own minds!
@smcgaff222. Did I mention anybody forcing you all to be mindless idiots? No. So, when you do a specific charity it's a collective effort but when it's spouting stupid regurgitated crap it's an individual thing? You can't have it both ways, it's not different for different things. After all it's "we" do this or "we" do that. Right? Face it, you spout the same shit because your internet nerd group does, you are lemmings, sheep. You TRULY like it because they do. Gotta belong! Herd together!
@beaviz810izback you know what! i have better things to do that argue with a close minded, stubborn troll like you. i see your point, but you dont even try to see mine, but whatever you're all that matters in the world(just in case you didnt notice, that was sarcasm)..... and here's a tip: the next time you leave a negative comment on a vlogbrothers video, you'll get more comment using "the spouting regurgitating shit from the idiots you worship" So go back to watching your own crap on youtube
@smcgaff222. That's not a tip you moron that's a laughable threat. Some sort of consequence. Ha ha, your retarded sense of Karma. Ooooh I'm scared, you idiot sheep do that anyway. You don't see my point, if you did you wouldn't be idiots in this internet herd, a herd that boosts your already vain attitudes. Oh yes, your nerdfighteria is just gonna FIX the world, you nerds should run it all right? YOUR ideas are the best. Self righteous vain ego trip nerd bastards.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. If you want to take the truth as "mean" then so be it. You can just go right ahead and be offended. Think outside the box, not within the nerdfighteria box, not within this group's box or that group's box. Have a one of you ever attempted to undo any of your social conditioning? A spring cleaning of the mind for a lack of a better term? I doubt it. None of you have a mind of your own, you are pathetic lost sheep just waiting for your bo peep. YOU are "world suck."
@beaviz810izback So, after futher investigation on your life, I would like to commend you, troll. Good job. Youre showing us how hateful we all. Wow. Arn't you just snazzy. I don't blame you for riling people up, I understand how much fun it is. But now I will tell you something in words you will understand. Get the fuck out.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. No, no no no no! You completely ignored my comment 23 hours ago! You know my life isn't to JUST simply let you know you are hypocritical scumbags hiding behind your ideas of justifications no. You see that is only ONE aspect of my personality. What I said was not JUST to merely make you angry but it was an honest and valid question. Well have you?
@beaviz810izback I have actually thought about these things. I used to be terrified to not do things like wear Hollister or whatnaught. And then when I stopped I realized the world was better not being forced into a group. But on the other hand, I WASNT forced into this group. I like his books before I even knew who he was. I actually was slightly ditzy and was concerently reading Johns books and watching his videos and didnt realize it ws the same person. But I like them and I like him. So yes,
@isinBohemianRhapsody. YOu didn't ansswer my ? Would nerdfighteria still "love" you if you didn't fit in their mold of ideals? Would they? For strictly an EXAMPLE what if you had some opinions like a "hater" that they didn't know you had, would they still accept and "love" you after finding out? Can you answer that? You do know you can have friends who don't participate in sheeple groups right? Groups aren't the only places to find friends. Friends are good to have, just not a million fake ones.
@beaviz810izback I did leave one group just to join another, but I actually put a lot of thought into who I liked and I still don't really give a lot of money to Nerdfighter stuff, even though I do identify with that group.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Then you haven't tried to undo any of your social conditioning. You just went from one thing to another. One attachment to another. Just because you LIKE something doesn't mean it's something you should identify yourself with. Do you have the ability to detach and not identify yourself with anything or anybody? BTW I'm not talking about being an anti social loner either. This is what it means to TRULY be YOURSELF. Groups mire individuals down.
@beaviz810izback Ok, fine. I tried and I failed. And I have friends in maney groups other than Nerdfighteria, that just happens to be the tiny facet of me that you see on youtube.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Failed? You didn't "fail" anything. Sounds like you have always been into something or another and identified yourself with your social interactions. Sounds like you haven't given yourself the chance to be yourself, but it doesn't mean you "failed" anything. I dislike that now overused word "fail." You let society tell you what is cool or good and what isn't and so on and so forth. Try reading about social conditioning..... if you choose. Or not.
@beaviz810izback You are at least sounding much more reasonable now troll. And I am happy with who I am, even if I am not socially conditioned to your liking. Au revoir.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. If I was sounding more reasonable then why did you feel the need to call me a troll again? It's logical to think that if I let up and be decent then you could too. You see, that smarmy attitude right there is WHY I hate people. Socially conditioned to my liking? That's not what I was getting at. I asked HAVE you tried to UNDO all of your societal influences? That's not being conditioned by anything or anybody, not by me either? You LIKE to follow your pied pipers. Weak.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Yup, that's you. You all enjoy your ignorant bliss, it's much easier when your pied pipers think for you. Oh and all that wonderful support TO be led around by fellow minions. If you weren't into being a nerdfighter you'd be led around by another sheeple group. You do decide of course, no one forces you definetly not, you seek your pied pipers. It's your choice, absolutely.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Thanks for saying that. You have proven that I am correct about nerdfighteria. So no more "you're just mean" or your just a hateful so and so. No, it's time everyone else just admitted that they are mindless drones waiting for the opportunity to blend in with a group. I have said before that none of you care, that you just simply enjoy melting away your individuality. "Yep," I also like how you think using few words at this point justifies anything you could ever say.
@beaviz810izback So yeah. I stoppe writing lots cause geuss what? You arn't to listen. You arnt. You have no interest. What if I'm happy? I am. What if I was bullied my whole life and the people in this community were the first pepole to accept me? That happened. WHY THE HELL WOULDNT I BE HAPPY? WHY WOULD I WWANT TO LEAVE? I am anything but mindless. Wanting friends makes me human. Wanting love makes me human. If you don't understand then its probaly cause you dotn have a heart.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. "You arn't to listen." What? What the hell does that mean? Love? These people don't love you! They may "accept" you but they don't really know you just over the internet! They DON'T love you. True love is completely unconditional, would these nerdfighters truly "love" and accept you if you didn't go along with most of THEIR ideals? Absolutely not! For an example what if you had some hidden "hateful" opinions like me and they found out. Would they still "love" you? Nope.
@beaviz810izback I actually think they would. I never said that I was friend with everyone in Nerdfighteria. The main point is that I have met people who I am now quite good friends with in real life through Nerdfighteria. We have varying political affiliations and whatnaught but we have lots in common. We do fight a lot because I am prochoice and most of them are prolife, but we are ffriends. Why do you care so much? All I can say is that I am intellectually stimulated by some of the veiws of
@isinBohemianRhapsody. You only think they would because you are already biased. You refuse to have a different perspective from the ideals within nerdfighteria. That is being quite biased. You damn well know that. I am pro choice too. The vlogbrothers are overly politically correct. Yes, there can be extremes in any set of ideals. They are accepting of way too many things and don't seem to have any boundries that even nature goes by. What makes them so correct? Power in numbers?
@beaviz810izback Nerdfighteria and John Green in general. I had never met people who were quite as passionate about things as these people are and I like the passion of them. They seem to be much more open minded than you are, anyhow. Why would I want to be misrible and cynical like you instead of friendly and happy liek I am now.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Open minded huh? You know, I could say the same thing to nerdfighters. I actually talked to Hank himself last night, I tried to teach him what unconditional giving is, he resonded but laughed it off with complete arrogance and cowardly let his minions bury my comments with their power in numbers, which larger numbers BTW does not make any ideal right. the video I tried to get him to watch was "Spiritual Practices - Part 2" by SageBodisattva. The vlogbrothers are not humble
@beaviz810izback No one ever claimed that they were. But they are nice. And when approached in a nice way generaly they are actually quite openminded. You, on the other hand probably were quite rude which is not exactly a good way to get people to listen to you. I'm actually completly done with this conversation now, So long Troll.
@isinBohemianRhapsody. If they were nice Hank wouldn't have boasted about how much nerdfighteria gives then arrogantly laugh off the rest of my comments towards him. I tried to give him a different perspective about charity and he refused. That's not open minded. I actually was nice at first TO get him to see things differently. He wasn't friendly from the start. I like how you control a conversation by telling me you're done. You could've ended it by NOT saying that too. It shows what you are.
Jewel encrusted book!? Ooft. How come hank isn't getting punished for his awfully long video when there was no montage? I'm confused what the 2011 rules are xD
I'm sure I wasn't the only one thinking, "Terrible, but great" at the beginning. Ollivander was pretty old, so maybe he's not as creepy as we thought.
Is it wrong that when I saw the portrait of Ivan I thought he looked sad and misunderstood rather than scary and intimidating? I know nothing about this subject so I'm just throwing around a random idea. Is it possible that Ivan did tell someone where the library was and they just kept all the treasure for themselves?
again, I feel so much smarter after this. other people rant aboutstupid videos, and stupid people. but not you guys. you talk about nuclear physics and russian history.
@123456789Keira lol! Perhaps we'll do all the work and then once we find it, we'll just tell you where the library is and you can come and say you helped :p
Oh, John.. Even when you have a 101.2 degree fever.. YOU STILL DON'T BLINK.

You think John is just a little bit into himself? I do. I HATE you vlogbrothers. You talk too fast and you swindle weak minded sheep kids into buying your CRAP so you can say you are benevolent and give it to charity while all you really do is live off of your nerdfighter minions. Making a living off of small time charity. I guess you've got it ALL figured out huh? Your nerdfighter minions will eat out of your hands like conservatives will with George Dubya Bush about 9/11.

We're minions? AWESOME!
Anyway, if you hate the vlogbrothers so much then what are you doing watching this? Either you're secretly a fan or you're just here to troll. Since you're probably a troll I just wanted to say this: Quit hating on anything that's the least bit popular, it makes you look pathetic. How about you try to find something better to do with your time than troll, I mean it's your life but perhaps you should make better use of it.

@beaviz810izback decepticon much???? if you hate nerfighteria so much (which in itself is near impossible), then DO NOT WATCH... Youtube gives you the option to pick what you want to watch or not wath what you dont what too. finally we arent idiots.... WE"RE NERDS and we're proud to be!!!! so there :P

@smcgaff222. None of you have a mind of your own! "Decepticon" durrrrrr!! Have you thought about NOT spouting and regurgitating shit from idiots that you worship? DO YOU HAVE A MIND OF YOUR OWN? It's either epic or awesome or you gotta say teh instead of the because it's "kewl" or the countless other trendy STUPID crap that everybody pukes up. Let me guess, the MAJORITY of people you come across do it so you MUST do it too right? Yoiu fucking sheep. The majority is ALWAYS right, right?
beaviz810izback 10 months ago
@beaviz810izback we dont have one mind buddy!!! we like different things as do john and hank. they dont force anything on us and we dont force anything on one another or them. another thing i hate the majority of the trendy stupid crap. This is a community of different people with different interests, ideas, and personalities. its not about what everyone thinks is cool, its what we as individuals think is cool, and just because we all think this is cool doesnt mean we dont have our own minds!
smcgaff222 10 months ago
@smcgaff222. Did I mention anybody forcing you all to be mindless idiots? No. So, when you do a specific charity it's a collective effort but when it's spouting stupid regurgitated crap it's an individual thing? You can't have it both ways, it's not different for different things. After all it's "we" do this or "we" do that. Right? Face it, you spout the same shit because your internet nerd group does, you are lemmings, sheep. You TRULY like it because they do. Gotta belong! Herd together!
beaviz810izback 10 months ago
@beaviz810izback you know what! i have better things to do that argue with a close minded, stubborn troll like you. i see your point, but you dont even try to see mine, but whatever you're all that matters in the world(just in case you didnt notice, that was sarcasm)..... and here's a tip: the next time you leave a negative comment on a vlogbrothers video, you'll get more comment using "the spouting regurgitating shit from the idiots you worship" So go back to watching your own crap on youtube

@smcgaff222. That's not a tip you moron that's a laughable threat. Some sort of consequence. Ha ha, your retarded sense of Karma. Ooooh I'm scared, you idiot sheep do that anyway. You don't see my point, if you did you wouldn't be idiots in this internet herd, a herd that boosts your already vain attitudes. Oh yes, your nerdfighteria is just gonna FIX the world, you nerds should run it all right? YOUR ideas are the best. Self righteous vain ego trip nerd bastards.

@isinBohemianRhapsody. If you want to take the truth as "mean" then so be it. You can just go right ahead and be offended. Think outside the box, not within the nerdfighteria box, not within this group's box or that group's box. Have a one of you ever attempted to undo any of your social conditioning? A spring cleaning of the mind for a lack of a better term? I doubt it. None of you have a mind of your own, you are pathetic lost sheep just waiting for your bo peep. YOU are "world suck."

@beaviz810izback So, after futher investigation on your life, I would like to commend you, troll. Good job. Youre showing us how hateful we all. Wow. Arn't you just snazzy. I don't blame you for riling people up, I understand how much fun it is. But now I will tell you something in words you will understand. Get the fuck out.

You know my life isn't to JUST simply let you know you are hypocritical scumbags hiding behind your ideas of justifications no. You see that is only ONE aspect of my personality.

@beaviz810izback I have actually thought about these things. I used to be terrified to not do things like wear Hollister or whatnaught. And then when I stopped I realized the world was better not being forced into a group. But on the other hand, I WASNT forced into this group. I like his books before I even knew who he was. I actually was slightly ditzy and was concerently reading Johns books and watching his videos and didnt realize it ws the same person. But I like them and I like him. So yes,
isinBohemianRhapsody 6 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. YOu didn't ansswer my ? Would nerdfighteria still "love" you if you didn't fit in their mold of ideals? Would they? For strictly an EXAMPLE what if you had some opinions like a "hater" that they didn't know you had, would they still accept and "love" you after finding out? Can you answer that? You do know you can have friends who don't participate in sheeple groups right? Groups aren't the only places to find friends. Friends are good to have, just not a million fake ones.
beaviz810izback 5 months ago
@beaviz810izback I did leave one group just to join another, but I actually put a lot of thought into who I liked and I still don't really give a lot of money to Nerdfighter stuff, even though I do identify with that group.
isinBohemianRhapsody 6 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Then you haven't tried to undo any of your social conditioning. You just went from one thing to another. One attachment to another. Just because you LIKE something doesn't mean it's something you should identify yourself with. Do you have the ability to detach and not identify yourself with anything or anybody? BTW I'm not talking about being an anti social loner either. This is what it means to TRULY be YOURSELF. Groups mire individuals down.
beaviz810izback 6 months ago
@beaviz810izback Ok, fine. I tried and I failed. And I have friends in maney groups other than Nerdfighteria, that just happens to be the tiny facet of me that you see on youtube.
isinBohemianRhapsody 6 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Failed? You didn't "fail" anything. Sounds like you have always been into something or another and identified yourself with your social interactions. Sounds like you haven't given yourself the chance to be yourself, but it doesn't mean you "failed" anything. I dislike that now overused word "fail." You let society tell you what is cool or good and what isn't and so on and so forth. Try reading about social conditioning..... if you choose. Or not.
beaviz810izback 6 months ago
@beaviz810izback You are at least sounding much more reasonable now troll. And I am happy with who I am, even if I am not socially conditioned to your liking. Au revoir.
isinBohemianRhapsody 6 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. If I was sounding more reasonable then why did you feel the need to call me a troll again? It's logical to think that if I let up and be decent then you could too. You see, that smarmy attitude right there is WHY I hate people. Socially conditioned to my liking? That's not what I was getting at. I asked HAVE you tried to UNDO all of your societal influences? That's not being conditioned by anything or anybody, not by me either? You LIKE to follow your pied pipers. Weak.

isinBohemianRhapsody 6 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Yup, that's you. You all enjoy your ignorant bliss, it's much easier when your pied pipers think for you. Oh and all that wonderful support TO be led around by fellow minions. If you weren't into being a nerdfighter you'd be led around by another sheeple group. You do decide of course, no one forces you definetly not, you seek your pied pipers. It's your choice, absolutely.
beaviz810izback 6 months ago
@beaviz810izback Yep. I dont care.
isinBohemianRhapsody 6 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Thanks for saying that. You have proven that I am correct about nerdfighteria. So no more "you're just mean" or your just a hateful so and so. No, it's time everyone else just admitted that they are mindless drones waiting for the opportunity to blend in with a group. I have said before that none of you care, that you just simply enjoy melting away your individuality. "Yep," I also like how you think using few words at this point justifies anything you could ever say.
beaviz810izback 6 months ago
@beaviz810izback So yeah. I stoppe writing lots cause geuss what? You arn't to listen. You arnt. You have no interest. What if I'm happy? I am. What if I was bullied my whole life and the people in this community were the first pepole to accept me? That happened. WHY THE HELL WOULDNT I BE HAPPY? WHY WOULD I WWANT TO LEAVE? I am anything but mindless. Wanting friends makes me human. Wanting love makes me human. If you don't understand then its probaly cause you dotn have a heart.
isinBohemianRhapsody 6 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. "You arn't to listen." What? What the hell does that mean? Love? These people don't love you! They may "accept" you but they don't really know you just over the internet! They DON'T love you. True love is completely unconditional, would these nerdfighters truly "love" and accept you if you didn't go along with most of THEIR ideals? Absolutely not! For an example what if you had some hidden "hateful" opinions like me and they found out. Would they still "love" you? Nope.
beaviz810izback 6 months ago
@beaviz810izback I actually think they would. I never said that I was friend with everyone in Nerdfighteria. The main point is that I have met people who I am now quite good friends with in real life through Nerdfighteria. We have varying political affiliations and whatnaught but we have lots in common. We do fight a lot because I am prochoice and most of them are prolife, but we are ffriends. Why do you care so much? All I can say is that I am intellectually stimulated by some of the veiws of
isinBohemianRhapsody 5 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. You only think they would because you are already biased. You refuse to have a different perspective from the ideals within nerdfighteria. That is being quite biased. You damn well know that. I am pro choice too. The vlogbrothers are overly politically correct. Yes, there can be extremes in any set of ideals. They are accepting of way too many things and don't seem to have any boundries that even nature goes by. What makes them so correct? Power in numbers?
beaviz810izback 5 months ago
@beaviz810izback Nerdfighteria and John Green in general. I had never met people who were quite as passionate about things as these people are and I like the passion of them. They seem to be much more open minded than you are, anyhow. Why would I want to be misrible and cynical like you instead of friendly and happy liek I am now.
isinBohemianRhapsody 5 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. Open minded huh? You know, I could say the same thing to nerdfighters. I actually talked to Hank himself last night, I tried to teach him what unconditional giving is, he resonded but laughed it off with complete arrogance and cowardly let his minions bury my comments with their power in numbers, which larger numbers BTW does not make any ideal right. the video I tried to get him to watch was "Spiritual Practices - Part 2" by SageBodisattva. The vlogbrothers are not humble
beaviz810izback 5 months ago
@beaviz810izback No one ever claimed that they were. But they are nice. And when approached in a nice way generaly they are actually quite openminded. You, on the other hand probably were quite rude which is not exactly a good way to get people to listen to you. I'm actually completly done with this conversation now, So long Troll.
isinBohemianRhapsody 5 months ago
@isinBohemianRhapsody. If they were nice Hank wouldn't have boasted about how much nerdfighteria gives then arrogantly laugh off the rest of my comments towards him. I tried to give him a different perspective about charity and he refused. That's not open minded. I actually was nice at first TO get him to see things differently. He wasn't friendly from the start. I like how you control a conversation by telling me you're done. You could've ended it by NOT saying that too. It shows what you are.
