Flint - "It's better to tell the truth" - A G.I. Joe PSA

[SJPlumb101]

As long as I tell the truth I can get away with anything yay!

[RickRomo]

fuck you Flint...

stop snitching...

[liamsp544]

One cannot disobey the ass-chin, it's power is too great.

[RickRomo]

@liamsp544 this is the best G.I joe psa comment I've ever read..

[DetachedArtist]

How would I feel if Billy got punnished? good, because it won't be me.

[xXMaxRansomXX]

And that's what happens when they leave the kitchen

[Pasc9]

Fighting online is like competing in the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded.

[DannyMan167]

The Truth would blame Little Jimmy.

[BronyOff]

But flint What is Truth. How does one define truth? Is truth determined by the winner?

[TheJasco123]

image this in real life..specail forces saving childeren and the next day breaking some guy's neck

[FlamingKillamajig]

@quackajack13z: If we're talking about just terrible decades and not just for cartoons i'd have to say the 60's. That time period was so bad. I'd almost feel ashamed for living through that time period even if i had been a child when it happened.

[FlamingKillamajig]

Flint holy shit! Don't you have a job to do or something? You're in the military don't you have to fight cobra or something? Why are you watching young children play? Something tells me their parents should be aware you're watching their kids so closely. It's kind of creepy.

[jacklambertwilson]

Is Billy retarded?

[TaTgurl1003]

i'd feel fine if billy got punished!

[TaTgurl1003]

i'd lie! billys a stupid looking kid anyway! she'd believe it!

[TheKaBLAMshow]

Then the kids get beaten for telling the truth. -,- lolol

[geezerbill]

"It's better to tell the truth!" Actually, that motto didn't work so well for the people hiding Anne Frank's family from the Nazis...

[bnt12671]

We did it lmfao

[DeaDLettuce]

dont tell the truth just blame autistic kids.

[jediskunk67]

Oh! and when you lie the guilt will eat you alive, and you'll be forced to tell the truth!

[DRawesomeninjasauce]

@jediskunk67 Shut the fuck up.

[jediskunk67]

"Let's tell mom it was Billy's mistake!"

mistakes can happen lying isn't going to help anything.

[willcontinuetoblade]

When I first heard this I thought it was

"Let's tell mom it was Billy's mistake!"

"YOU were a mistake"

[pytko3]

One lie can often lead to another.

[chibicelchan]

As soon as Flint leaves:

"Mom! Some weird guy in a jeep broke the window!!"

[vampiresarah]

@chibicelchan Would love it if they did that...F you random guy, lecture us and it's your fault. He also would have made some bad tyre marks on the grass too. How they gonna explain that one?

[chibicelchan]

@vampiresarah You're right, he totally did park on the grass! That's going to be harder to explain to mom than the broken window.

[vampiresarah]

@chibicelchan Totally!! The kids can't drive!! and can they really say some randomer lectured them while ruining the grass?

[Boviking]

@chibicelchan There are some videos that I favorite just for a brilliant comment, yours is one <3

[thevideovan]

It turns out that the two kids got thrown out of there house and are now dead after oding on lsd, thoughted id tell you because knowing is half the battle and the other is overcoming drug problems.

[catzblu999]

wtf i was hoping for one of the epic parodies

[ControlWise]

"Let's tell mom it was Billy's mistake!"

I was expecting to hear "You're being a bitch."

[darkraven1414]

Who the fuck did these character layouts???

[wileyk209zback]

@darkraven1414 It must've been done by some of the Japanese animators at Toei. Seems almost all the Marvel cartoons from 1984 to 1986 looked like this

[jewface57]

So the military specialists just chill around town them?

[TaTgurl1003]

you know, I don't think i'd mind if billy got punished. He deserves it

[yusukeelric]

Billy don't seem to care anyway.

[xXxMartin96xXx]

yes, better to tell your mom you crashed a window. now she is going to punish you......what if she/your dad hit you? then, you will be in troubles

[Aladdin7796]

The truth set you free.

[supaultrapimp]

now go inside for a beating from you'er lush of a mother kids

[CommitToFocus]

They lied anyways. Billy got sent to an orphange.

[simplyblink182]

I wouldn't of felt bad if I blamed Billy!

[kaktusztea]

5 frame / sec.

Pfff...

[wileyk209zback]

@kaktusztea Well keep in mind, these PSAs were animated in Japan (by Toei Animation to be exact), and Japanese animation often uses slower frame rates (unless TMS animates)

[The4EverYoung85]

@wileyk209zback Wait. If this were animated by Toei Animation, why is it (the animation) suck so bad? Was there budget problems or just a case of mediocre technology in the 1980s?

[wileyk209zback]

@The4EverYoung85 IDK why; the G.I. Joe animation often seemed glitchy during the 1985-1986 years, plus there was practically no creative input. Toei's animation on "Muppet Babies" was pretty good in 1986, though.

And at least it's not as bad as Akom or Hanho Heung-Up or something like that

[roguelead72]

2 things, I'm the second of five kids, first thing I learned was if you can blame one of your siblings for something you did, it was easier on you. My father and my wife, who were both only children never could grasp this concept. That is it really that much better to tell the truth, I tried that with my wife once, sorry but I hate sleeping on the couch.

[toychristopher]

Awesome hat

[MamaLuigisOVER9000]

billy seems a little slow....

[RoboWatchgirl]

These were a pretty good idea at the time. They talked about a number of things that kids would need to know later on.

It's a shame Snake Eyes doesn't talk, he knows a Lot of useful stuff that he could've told the kids about.

[AUStudentKJH]

This is bullshit!

Billy SO has that shit coming!!!

[notlock3555]

now it's just crap shows like Johny test, normal show, and just spewed out random ADHD writer crap. Where are we going with our social traits

[The4EverYoung85]

@notlock3555 Hey, I like Regular Show (not "Normal Show"), but that's because that show isn't meant for children. The rest of the kids' cartoons today can go to Hell. The 1990s and the early half of the 2000s was the last time America has had anything remotely resembling good cartoon shows for kids.

[gothamknight100]

Weiner should've told the truth

[LucianUramu]

Flint: don't you blame this on your autistic brother billy.

[Evanspar]

Billy looks like a fucking retard kid.

[brucewayne79]

O.K., what are the odds that Flint just happens to drive by, see them break the window, AND overhear them try to blame it on Billy?

[Adrastia]

@brucewayne79 Flint is stalking kids. Having some sweet Lady Jaye action just isn't enough for him anymore.

[2199]

the minute he drives off they gonna tell mom Billy did it. Then he comes back and tells what really happened

[kilkolio]

there shoudl be a parody of commander cobra and his goons giving PSA of how to be bad

[kidkustom]

WTF is he doing driving a an armored jeep up their garden path? Doesn't he know there's a war going on in Iraq?

[Vadion12]

"Good now get outta the way kids, im on my way to your moms bachelorett party to strip for the girls"

[Peter1999]

Dont play baseball with a girl

[jonthefuzz2]

the part you didn't see is them getting the belt

[frozenkiller7]

yeh!

the 2 year old threw a goddamn ball

ARE THESE PEOPLE RETARDS??

[xraycat30]

Now I know that it's better to tell the truth. Thanks Flint.

[Foges6694]

"We'll tell her we did it."

She says that so enthusiastically.

[toychristopher]

@Foges6694 that's cause she was lying. She's still gonna lie and say Billy did it.

[Telseilong]

It only a lie, if you get caught. But the thought is nice.

[KeshnerfFilms]

Keep pressing 1 for OH NO

[SuperODST1]

that girl looks so happy that she's addmiting to breaking an expensive window

[Amonthered]

you can tell with how Washington is flint never went there and told them about lieing lol

[roguelead72]

Oh come on Flint, all the fun of being one of 5 kids was being able to blame one of my siblings for something I did.

[KingDT2007]

and after this commerical flint advised chris griffin about the effects of alcohol

[MansonFan64]

If you lie, the communists win.

[pancakewafflebacon]

those kids are pricks

[OminousLatinUsername]

Fuck you, Flint. First line defender of a system built on lies!

[epona1031]

I would blame Billy the hell with you Flint.

Why are you spying on kids in the first place.

[hislittleone93]

@epona1031 no kidding can u say pedofile!

[zepplinnkomand0]

damn suits making childrens propaganda, some of this stuff could be harmful psycologically

[PeachWookiee]

@zepplinnkomand0 This was propaganda? Loosen up, dude.

[Ryuhza]

You're making the mistake...

...by not running when you had the chance.

[Kadeerthejanitor]

plus if you blame billy wikileaks will getcha

[Jaket2000]

Tell the truth..... Thats how Cobra Allways knows whats going on..

[Muirselgas]

I blame all of my mistakes on the retardeds

[thewilloffire08]

Who let him take an army jeep just to go and tell some kids that lying is bad?

[cappsoutlaw]

mom knows billy retarded

[WhiteTriceratops]

The dumb broad needs to be punished johnny can get a time-out.

[BaronAmerican]

Too bad Flint couldn't follow his own advice when he was called before Congress to testify on Iran-Contra.

[jason2anime]

Flint is the only Joe that has more than 2 PSAs. I often think of him as G.I. Joe's spokesman for helping kids being better people when they grow up. Now we know, and knowing is half the battle. ;)

[superscout240]

mom: how come ther track on my lawn kid wip wip wip wip flint comes back gets gun out ow ya kid go up to youer room here gun shots kids ya ya ya ya

[superscout240]

ok than they say mom mom billy throow a ball at the window and billys life was hars from now on tell he dide lock up in the basement

[blacknite76]

Flint rode up like a disappointed step father, look just tell the truth so I don't hear you bitch of mothers mouth tonight or lie I don't give a crap!

[rfbarrington88]

she's gonna be more upset if she finds tire tracks on her lawn

[TheDullahan]

Right up until Scary Army Dude left...then they lied their asses off.

[DonZabu]

Is Billy special or something? He doesn't say a word.

[rkmugen]

Did the National Child Safety Council disappear or something? Oh wait....it only seems like it because all the high-quality cartoons disappeared with the 1990's. A sad decade the 2000's turned out to be. =\

[skynsidhawaii]

@rkmugen If there was, it would probably say don't end up like lindsay lohan, paris hilton, or brittney spears.

[Sirjohn2421]

@rkmugen amen brother amen

[The4EverYoung85]

@rkmugen I don't think the NCSC ever existed. It was just something made up so they could be able to tack on something educational to the end of the show.

[rkmugen]

@The4EverYoung85 Lol... i actually did some checking like about a week after I posted my original comment... and as it turns out, they really did (and still do) exist. They're a "federal tax-exempt, non-profit organization" (according to their website).

[The4EverYoung85]

@rkmugen I stand corrected then.

[Adrastia]

@The4EverYoung85 They do exist. Google them. I remember being in school in the 80s and we'd get flyers and activities from them. They are still around. It's just that cartoons no longer have PSAs it seems. Too bad because they could use them.

[quackajack13z]

@rkmugen It's probably the worst fucking decade of all time. Like, literally. Name a worse decade.

[rkmugen]

@quackajack13z Depression/prohibition era maybe.... 1930's =/

[The4EverYoung85]

@quackajack13z The 1970s, especially when disco became big.

[quackajack13z]

@The4EverYoung85 No fucking way. Are you kidding? If you were to argue the 70s had nothing else, its movies alone made it a better decade by far.

[catzblu999]

@quackajack13z 2000's

Can't top Bush and Obama

[pcota81]

@quackajack13z the 70's weren't all cupcakes and lollipops but it sure beats the decade the black plague wipeout a third of Europe's population. I'm pretty sure they weren't thinking about how shitty disco was going to be as they were dying in mass in the streets. But thats just an opinion.

[DJMC5ive]

@quackajack13z 1930s

[quackajack13z]

@DJMC5ive No...People at least had their souls in the 30s.

[DJMC5ive]

@quackajack13z you know, you got me thinking!

[Rensune]

@quackajack13z the 30s?

[quackajack13z]

@Rensune Noooo....

[FNGLHR]

@quackajack13z World war fucking Two? Hey how about turn of the century, World War 1? Should we even get into the sixties with Vietnam? How about the fifties with fears of an atomic war looming over everyone's heads and rampant communist paranoia. You have it good today pal, don't try and compare all that shit with today's problems.

[quackajack13z]

@FNGLHR Well guess what you indignant, youtube scumfuck? I already did compare "all that shit" with today's problems when I took a second to think of a worse decade 3 months ago. 'Communist paranoia', 'fears of atomic war', etc. all still exist in the form of different parallels. Sometimes not even in parallels. Those problems haven't really gone away. The main difference now is that personal artistic expression is at an historical low- an inadvertent symptom of the information age.

[FNGLHR]

@quackajack13z Yes cause I'm sure your life sucks so much is on par with people who were living in poverty around the Great Depression or starving in work camps in Siberia or fearing for their lives while their homes were being bombed. Yes, your life sucks so hard now! ya ungrateful little shit. It sucks how advanced our medical technology is now and how much more tolerant the world has become. Maybe you should head back to the dark ages, can't be any worse than now right?

[quackajack13z]

@FNGLHR I don't think I've ever read a youtube comment that's pissed me off so much ...What a sycophantic cocksucker you are. That wasn't even what I was suggesting in the first place, you insecure, brown-nosed piece of shit. Which figure of authority was it that preemptively butt-fucked you for suggesting a comparison between your life and theirs? Your white-trash grandfather that served in WWII? A disgruntled history teacher? Fuck yourself teacher's pet. And fuck your family too.

[FNGLHR]

@quackajack13z Wow? Really? You bring another person's family into this bullshit argument? Seriously? Dude, you got fucking issues. I suggest you sort them out.

[quackajack13z]

@FNGLHR Sure. I'll bring your family into a bullshit argument that *you* started. I know saying this is almost as childish as the bullshit you've been spewing..but, at the risk of sounding like a nutcase..: I would fucking kill you if I ever met you in the flesh. Like, rip your guts out and put them in cabinets. How would that be for "sorting out my issues"? As I pull your live spleen out, you'd learn that misery and terror are entirely subjective things with little to do with decade.

[FNGLHR]

@quackajack13z I believe I was responding to YOUR post sir, so technicallyYOU started the argument first.

But ya know, it's pretty clear talking to you is a bad idea. You're clearly disturbed mentally. Also, you were the one who was perscribing misery to decade, not me. You prescribed that the early 2000's were horrible time to live and your basis it seems was for cartoons not being as good as they use to. So, really? Fuck it. I'm not interested in talking to someone who acts like you.

[quackajack13z]

@FNGLHR I never said or did any of that. I made a tongue-in-cheek remark, which you decided to get defensive about. You're a presumptuous, pathetic little cocksucker, and I'd appreciate it if you'd peacefully fuck off instead of bothering with another unintelligent post about how you're "not interested in talking to me". If that's true then I can expect not to be bothered by any more of your stupid bullshit, right? Good. Have a good day, you worthless asshole.

[Ralokone]

@quackajack13z the 1940s

[ylwapple45]

LMAO! ....typical older siblings.

[wileyk209zback]

It seems Flint was the most-used G.I. Joe character for the PSAs. He appeared in two from the 1985 season, and one from the 1986 season (this one.) This makes him the only G.I. Joe character to appear in a PSA in BOTH seasons, while others were limited to one season.

[bopomofo]

This is one that Fenslerfilm DIDN'T dub. On an unrelated note, this is valuable advice even for adults.

[dvdchabless]

I remeber these. Man the memories these shows bring back. I just wish there was more shows like this on tv.

[TheGames32]

@dvdchabless With you on that one bro. If more people just tried doing what was right and safe we'd have one heck of a good world going for us. Personally am waiting for the show that gets us all to click together and do the right things for all of us during these trying times.
