  • Wish i coulda lived in the 50s...

  • These films are like howcast and expert village of the past

  • Is Nick retarded?

  • Mick is cute

  • Propaganda was as effective then as it is now, it's evolved as any effective method of control does

  • Kick his ass! 7:35

  • I like doing things as a group too. A gang-bang is always a great chance to get acquainted! Thanks for the advice father time!

  • Its a chance to do things in a group, if your partner likes it.

  • "I'll claw for you then"? WTF?

  • LMAO  weenie roast

  • Wheres the HD version?

  • kids back then were arrested for watching a movie more than once.

  • I like how her phone number is only 5 digits long

  • There are second to none instructional videos today... Why are they suddenly in the 50s?

  • No boy has ever taken me to a swim meet. I feel unloved.

  • Nick is a little bitch with no balls. If I lived in the 50s i would be pulling in girls left and right.

  • I wish this is how everything was. I dress like these dudes every day and I love it.

    It bugs the shit out of me that my voice doesn't sound like theirs.

  • The only drugs I take are prescription and over-the-counter, and used wisely. The only alcohol that I use is to put on my face to take the oil out of my skin and relieve any pain in my body. When it comes to sex, I am still a virgin, and proud of it.

  • i think nick sounds creepy, his voice without any feelings ._.

  • Please, today a idea of a good time is getting some pot, and then smoking it til your so shit faced you cant even see straight, then go through the uncomfortable experience of stoned sex. Aw... young love

  • We teach you how to talk, walk and think! Subscribe to propaganda today!

  • There must be something about high fructose corn syrup that makes us modern folk not sound 20 years older.

  • i,ll get my tennis racket ! wise move.he can use it to defend his honour.

  • D'aww how cute

    

  • tight, tight shirts and baggy baggy pants

  • ....at your bongo party and your weenie roast !!

  • Nick's bangin'.

  • 1950's USA... known as camelot when everything was peachy and perfect, the american middle class was growing, the rich payed a high and fair tax, the economy was growing, there was no such thing as terrorism, no industrialized farming, a time when people were generally healthy and happy

  • @jumar1281 Then TV happened and we all became ignorant.

  • Enter: The 60s.

  • teenagers back then sounded and looked like adults.

  • A weenie roast is where you go outside and roast hot dogs on an open fire. It is not sexual.

  • @nanlisa i know ppl are so silly on youtube. my mother was born in 45 and she still calls hot dogs weenies

  • This film simply depicts young innocence and old-fashioned dating. What's wrong with going to a weenie roast or a baseball game? It's better than having a party with sex, drugs, and alcohol.

    The young people of today should see this film. It teaches them morals and values, as well as to be pure, chaste, and virgins until the wedding night. This way, we won't have as many teenage pregnancies, AIDS, herpes, HIV, or any of these other sexually transmitted diseases like we have today.

  • @nanlisa Teen pregnancy was more prevalent i the 50s than it is now.

  • @Homewrecker47

    Only by counting married girls. UNmarried teen pregnancies were much lower than today's.

  • @nanlisa Have you tried sex, drugs and alcohol? Trust me, they're way more fun than a weenie roast.

  • @nanlisa - Grandma? Is that you???

  • Fuck the weenie roast, get straight to the butt-play and bondage!

  • The birth control pill didn't come out until 1960.

  • why aren't guys this sweet nowadays?

  • 4:20 Hey Nick you want to help me explain Irony?

  • And let's not forget what Rosa Parks did when she refused to give up her seat on a bus for a white man. She started the Civil Rights Movement.

  • There was violence in the 50's too. Think of the movie "Blackboard Jungle" with Glenn Ford and Sidney Poitier. The Korean War was going on. Juvenile delinquency. The murder of the Clutter family in Kansas (which inspired "In Cold Blood". The Midwestern crime spree of Charles Starkweather and Caryl Ann Fugate, who were both teenagers at the time. The murder of Johnny Stompanato by Lana Turners daughter; who was only 14 at the time.

    Every decade has had its share of violence and problems.

  • Can somebody honestly tell me if life in the 50's in rural, middle class areas was so fantastic is this propaganda displays? Or this is complete BS as to what life was like.

  • @XpEAnUTBuTtERsUckSX Yes, it really was that lame, predominantly vacuous and mind-numbingly boring.

  • This was also riffed on Mystery Science Theater 3000 as well. But seriously, this was when dating was completely innocent. What's wrong with going to a movie, a baseball game, or even weenie roast? It's better than drinking and taking drugs,

    I like dating the old-fashioned way.

  • @nanlisa Whats wrong with it is that it isn't in compliance with the Hollywood-Disney manufactured culture of this generation that a certain rich group of individuals prioritized so they could again control us through advertizing and by appealing to our primal instincts of sex, and sell us useless shit (to put it simply).

  • What a evil group of people back then, so racist , so ignorant, so white. Those days are over, future is colored.

  • @stickedU u are fucked up

  • "Say, you like to do lots of things, don't ya?" ;)

  • Amazing acting

  • There's a similarly titled video from the same era for military etiquette. If you can ever find it, it is just too funny.

  • TO the idiots making fun of this video:

    The point wasn't to show that life was perfect, but rather than people back then felt a moral obligation to try to make things better. You create an image of a good descent society in the hopes of inspiring others to emulate it.

    That's somethign that today's tv and film makers don't understand, as they have no morals anyway.

  • @Vebinz Not that I would make fun, but I wouldn't exactly attribute moral superiority to the era before the civil rights movement. People often idealize the past because the unpleasant bits tend to get swept under the rug over time. I know that, as a woman, I wouldn't want to accept a limited range of low-paying jobs (or a lifetime career as a housewife), and I definitely wouldn't want to send my kids to a segregated school. There are good and bad features of any time period.

  • @RainbowMeadowFlower

    But you can't pass judgment on an entire society simply because of segregation. Yes it was unfortunate, but most people lived their lives as you and I do without thinking about it.

    Also, I don't agree with your use of the word "career" in connection with being a housewife. You're brining Marxist Materialism in the equation then.

  • @Vebinz - People back then were brain-washed, conservative, christian, nationalistic, communist-fearing drones. I'm shocked that this country survived the McCarthy 50's. Although nothing has really changed in 60 years. We're still a nation of dullards, probably exponentially stupider than we were in the 50's because corporations have learned how to manipulate us in more creative ways. Morality? What a f-ing concept! Everyone is to busy pretending they are bad-ass to understand morality...

  • @LiquidTokyo

    "People back then were brain-washed, conservative, christian, nationalistic, communist-fearing drones."

    How were they anymore or less "brain-washed" than any other people through-out history? And by whom if most of them then grew up before tv and mass culture?

    And I see nothing wrong with being Christian.

    As for "conservative", I would't call them that as the bullshit divide between liberal and conservative hadn't existed yet.

  • They all would rather go to the weenie roast.

  • "Weenie roast? NICK NO!"

  • Lol!!! Look who's talking at 4:24

  • i love weenie roasts :P

  • That's a swell film you've uploaded.

  • say you like to do lotsa things, dont ya? ;)

  • weenie roast XD

  • It would actually be nice to find a guy that puts some thought into dating.

  • A weenie roast?? Never on the first date!

  • why do guys voices back then seem so weird...

  • I'm sorry but the acting is so bad I want to scream

  • I'm not trying to come off as a troll, or a immature little 'kid' that doesn't appreciate nostalgia for the time period, this is just a question: Am I the only one that thinks in these old pieces from the 50s and 60s, the young men's/boy's voices sound...a bit, unnecessarily high and 'childish' for their ages?

    Just a question, maybe it's just me, or because there was a different audio back then or something.

    Thanks for the up load.

  • The subliminal message is ALL too CLEAR! at 6:09, is the first mention of a "Weenie Roast". At 9:37 the protaganist mentions it again! At 9:58 he is forcing the issue again, "Weenie Roast, Weenie Roast, Weenie Roast" and at 10:03 the girl relents! We all know what that's about! These filthy movies should be banned from decent society!

  • That galoot could use that racket to beat his intented victim into submission, thereby ensuring he gets in her knickers without ado. Hahahahahaha!

  • What to do on a date?? I tell you what a man needs to do on a date - get her knickers off by any means, and without remorse. Hahahahahahaha!

  • Stupid Americans - making INSTRUCTION films for teens having a date. Some very simple minds ... imbeciles.

  • @AndreasKiel

    Yeah, we're "simple minds" alright, as shown by how we let an Austrian painter drag us into a World War.

  • You pay some grizzled, old drunk to buy you a bottle of Jack, you use the condom dispenser in the gas station men's room, you borrow Dad's Rambler, and then you drive Kay out to park in the bluffs after a burger and soda. Kay is a dog, but by the time the bottle of Jack is a third gone, you don't really care anymore, and Kay is too polluted to be really aware of much of anything. Condoms forgotten, a blurry grope and a brief goo spurt gets Kay knocked up, and your life is fucked. Happy days.

  • did they really talk like this in the 50s?

  • @FDASARO I'm pretty sure they talked like that only in the movies. They weren't too different than people nowadays. They cussed and flirted and did all the things teenagers do now. I don't know on a first hand basis, but I just can't imagine people being THAT cheesy in real life. =)

  • @OhMyGourd94

    The power of propaganda... Watch 'Rebel without a cause'... and then have 'Wanderers' or 'The Lords of Flatbush' and you can see the difference :)

  • @ElectricGuitarManPL I've always wanted to see Rebel Without a Cause but I've never heard of those other two. Are they newer movies?

  • @OhMyGourd94

    Yes, The Wanderers is from 1978 and Lords of Flatbush from 1974 (one of the first roles of Sylvester Stallone and Henry Winkler!). These films are about greasers, young gangs. They depict the real 50s, with rock n roll, gang fights and sex in the motor cinemas. The youth weren't so different than today, maybe not so spoilt and stupid by TV & internet.

  • @ElectricGuitarManPL Oh man. I'm definitely gonna have to watch those movies! The only real greaser film I've seen is The Outsiders, which was a great picture. I've always wanted to go to a drive-in theater. Not to have sex, though. =D Kids these days are spoiled for sure. I'm only 16, but I look at people my age and think, what happened? I saw a little girl that couldn't have been more than 7 years old with a cell phone the other day! What has the world come to?

  • @OhMyGourd94 Outsiders yes it is a greaser movie but situated in late 60s (mustangs, psychedelic rock etc.).

    Not only you would want to live in 1950s, the world of cosmic cars and building, drive ins, doo wop music. The next movies about youngs in 50s: Peggy Sue got married, Pleasantville, Speedracers, Cry Baby. Nice watching :)

  • @ElectricGuitarManPL I've seen Cry Baby. Watched it yesterday, actually. But I've never heard of those others. I must not get out much. =D

  • @OhMyGourd94 I recommend them, you won't be disappointed :) Sorry for mistake, not Speedracers but Roadracers, Robert Rodriguez film from 1994

  • @OhMyGourd94 I agree =] I'm 16 too lol and I loved The Outsiders, would have loved to have grown up then (:

  • @FDASARO gee...of course... FDASARO, why you are... so suspicious... mate, eh?

    :P

  • Remember Jeff, if she gives you oral on the first date she's keeper. Also be sure to keep a bottle of penicillin on stand-by just in case you catch any venereal diseases; who am i kidding, you won't catch anything.

  • lol weenie roast

  • Say you like to do lots of things don't ya? HAHA!

  • la noire should have one of these

  • Hey Jeff, she sure is swell but I just don't think it's the place to take a girl on a date!

    These are too good.

  • i wish someone showed me these film earlier in life

  • What a drag it must have been to think of things to do on a date when nowadays we just jump right into bed.

    We have it so much better now!

  • I can't get over how they all sound like they're on horse tranqulisers.

  • my dad remembers watching this.

  • GEE! A WEENIE ROAST! SOUNDS SWELL

  • 10:08 Oh that's not too swell Jeff

  • This is simple?

    Nowadays, you just show up at the girl's house and fucking pile drive her to the wall. Once she is de-virginized, you got yourself a girlfriend.

  • Funny! More 1950s humor on our channel.

  • He forgot the condoms

  • kay likes weenie roasts...

  • I'm diggin the pants...

  • Why would she say she's already seen it? She might as well of just said "I hate you."

  • Aren't Kay and Jeff swell? Aren't weenie roasts swell? Well isn't life just swell?

    Oh the simplicity.

  • Kays phone number is soo long..

  • awkward much?

  • I was hoping to get advice on how to hide my boner while on a date.

  • Lets roast weenies on the fire! Wouldn't that be swell?!

  • in reality, takes Kay to drag race in his 49 Merc.

  • Golly gee, does he have a wedgie. Those aren't swell after all.

  • Gee grow some balls please.

  • I think they're just horsing around and passing a little time.

  • Man, someone needs to get some chronic, some tequila, a big blunt, some vikes and a couple of brains. I mean, these two are so stupid and slow, they might as well be dead. They act like they are in a nursing home.

  • Mick, well, he's got a real dating problem...because he has herpes.

  • Oh god, the main guy is so tense that it makes him look awkward all the time.

  • 5:53 I only thought of one thing... Oh the mind of the 21st century

  • There's gonna be a weenie roast and Kay's invited.

  • The main guy sounds like he's on lithium and xanax.

    The number on this one is 9.

  • Everyone check out the MST3k of this..

  • 10 Things Nick thought Kay Would Like to Do on a First Date: 1. Panda rape 2. Cow tipping 3. Cheese confusing 4. 9 volt battery licking 5. Staple-gunning eachother's thumbs to wild boar genitals 6. Watching hobos die 7. Beating George to within an inch of his life 8. Running in circles around an owl until its head twists off 9. Huffing Elmer's glue 10. Sodomizing a gazelle with a rotten banana Nick was a moron, you see, and wouldn't know a good idea if it slit his throat and shat in the wound.
  • @boritom You forgot 3-way cream cheese llama bondage...

  • oh me oh my somebody please take me to the community centre!

  • Did people seriously speak like that....? NO Fucking way ...thats Bullshit... (ahh, thats more like it)

  • Ok, ok, It's decided. We are all going to the weenie roast.

  • Wow, those people are, like, 80 now! And their parents are all dead!

  • what a simple era hahaha god i wish id been there.

  • @davic14 Boring as hell...

  • @CEOkiller you think that because you used to modern life.

  • @davic14 not so simple. BURN ALL REDS!

  • @davic14 if you ever find a way to travel back in time.. take me with you lol..

  • @davic14 A simple era? Maybe in movies but not in reality.

  • Comment removed

  • @Reasonwillwin Your opinion.

  • *cringing violently*

  • that dude throws like a pansy lol

  • i really like this girl im wanting to ask out on a first date, so i like the idea of more people a group of people not to make it too nerve racking, so i have invited her to a orgy

  • Nick sounds slightly retarded

  • weenie roast. heh heh.

  • Too painful to watch.

  • Oh, back in the day where you had to call a girl. Not text.

  • Gee Wally, You were a little ruff on the Beaver last night! Owwwwwwww!

  • @HerbWalker Actually, his name was "Ward". "Wally" was the brother.

  • Bad acting! Hahaha

  • You guys wish you lived in the 1950s? An era where racism then would make today's racism seem non-existant? An era where wearing church clothes everyday was the norm? An era where you wore tight short shorts to play sports like basketball, "cool" people wore leather jackets, and soaked their head with flammable hair spray? An era where the only porn was Playboy? An era with no cable television? An era with the unthinkable....NO INTERNET?!

  • @SasukeKunDesu

    GAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!

  • @SasukeKunDesu

    Aside from racism (which is an over-simplification), nothing you wrote about is bad. It's like someone 50 from now condemning today for not having flying cars.

  • at the weenie roast, you "learn the give and take of playing together". this was an actual line.

  • Anyone else notice that the only black presence in this film was the large weenies they were roasting?

  • Jeff's a beast.

  • GOLLY GEE!

  • her telephone number has only one 5! I wanted to be in 50's, it was so cool

  • i wish i live in the 3950s... Awesome age era...

  • Better yet, just don't go on dates; it solves the problem.

  • @BuddyNovinski

    thats why porn exists!

  • the 50s innocent,I dont think so, they gang wars ,mafia killings,rapist,murderers,doem­stic violence,and what about Black people hanging from trees,wasnt that a past time in the 50s,agreed no time was innocent,its just now days we air all our dirty laundry in public,basically we hang our shitty drawers where everyone can see and smell them

  • @BorderCityBandit

    And you think airing "our dirty laundry" has improved society in any way?

  • @Vebinz as I cant seem to locate my old post and my memory is failing me at 35 no less,No I dont think airing dirty laundry has helped society,it also doesnt help youtube trolls who intentionally try and push buttons,because they have no life,(dont get pissed if that doesnt apply to you).

  • lol i thought this was a joke.... wow

  • Yep... if you date around without sleeping around you will eventually find one you can actually get along with most of the time, and become best friends.... Imagine that, marrying your best friend for life rather than divorcing the hottest chick on the block, or the chick you got pregnant at some drunken party.

    Yep... life was good back in those days... and can be now...

  • kay would enjoy a weenie roast.

  • i wish i lived during the 50's!

  • @DanW900,why?

  • @OpiumpLayground4life

    Life was so much better back then.

  • @DanW900, how so?

  • Ever wonder why they had to have so many instructional videos like these on how to just get through a normal day? Seems like people must have been pretty miserable if they needed government films to tell them how to get along.

  • (LOL) Okay, okay. It's easy to make fun of this video -- and fun to do so.

    But consider this: I know that I myself would have been incapable of writing the script for it. And I bet that's true for 99% of the people commenting here.

    Something about that fact . . . makes me a little uneasy about laughing TOO hard.

  • No wonder all old librarians talk like that girl, it's how all the goddamn chicks talked back then. Would have been a major turn off for me, at least.

  • It's funny how they start out saying what to do on a date while the two boys are the only ones on screen.

  • 2:10 with each dial he comes closer and closer to the most embarrassing moment of his life.

  • If they onlyt knew that 'old time' lamp would get priced on Antique Roadshow for $80,000 years later....

  • 3:05 SWING!

  • @Flakatak76 Don't worry about it Kay, you won't be watching the movie...

  • lets go see Wagon train!

  • So cute!

  • wennie roasts all day

  • You know what is not so swell? COMMUNISM!
