It just occurred to me that my freshman year of high school, some cool upperclassman had written "DFTBA" on the whiteboard in my English class and I thought, "Wow wonder what that means." Ah, Nerdfighters were there in my early, awkward years of high school, I was just yet to find them.
@noosaho That wasn't the point. Photographs doesn't start with the P sound that would have made his list of parts alliterative. ...*awkward silence* DFTBA! :)
Dog Feces Trash Boy's Anecdote (I tried really hard to make this one relate to the story about red green destroying the nintendo but I couldn't think of something for the A!!)
I feel like a very bad Nerdfighter asking this, but can someone made of Awesome tell me what exactly The Ning is/means? I've seen most of the videos but I just can't seem to find the one where that is explained.
@KiraraLuver Hey! Don't feel bad. "The Ning" refers to the Nerdfighter website. Ning is the platform the website is on, and that's why it's referred to as such. :)

Hey John? I know this video is over 2 years old and all, but you asked Miles/Myles for prom pics, and he made a promise, but we never saw them... can we still see them?
Help? My tribe is trying to gain Federal Recognition and I would appreciate if you could go onto the website* and sign the petition It ends DECEMBER 1ST !
*the united houma nation website has the information under the Federal Recognition bar, it also give more history about us
This may sound ridiculous, but I am actually Mile's brother. He showed me this and I came back to see it again, and sense I am also a fan of the VlogBrothers, it is really bizarre seeing my brother talk to this internet leader. Just saying.
i live in argentina. how well known is john green in usa 1 to 10? the guy that was on the phone was really amazed.... here in argentina hes 0. wow i really love john
Um, wow. At 2:28 when they showed the picture of the keyboard, I literally checked my keyboard to see if it was actually all in a line like that... I think I might have forgotten to be awesome... unless it was an awesome fail?
I want someone to get John to ask me somewhere. It doesn't matter what it is, I will say yes.
"Hi Sarah, it's John Green, author of Looking for Alaska, An Abudance of Katherines and Paper Towns. Would you pick up some milk from the store for your mom? You're all out."
@AZproductions117 Thanks. My comment would just sound ridiculous without B. :) I really hope people realize I was trying to refer to King Kong. Nerdfighters don't let me down.
My name is Kiki, and i was raped before i died. I use to enjoy pain and now i inflict it upon people. I was tortured and raped untill i could no longer breathe. Those meanies now suffer and die, and those who do not repost this to 5 videos will die too. i hate this 2 but i believe
At the strike of 12AM, those who did not repost this will die a horrible death after seeing a bloody face covered with long black hair. Those who repost this will get a kiss from their crush
Every time John calls someone, they're always so calm when he says his name. If John Green called me, I would scream like a nine year old girl front row at a Justin Beiber concert.
@untitledmusicproject IKR?I world have scream like if I have meet Charlie.I think that world be better cause Charlie is better then him.I will be like you are John freaking Green!And then I will pass out prob.
I no longer know if I own that dictionary, know someone who owns that dictionary, or if it's just John and I've watched too many vlogbrothers videos (all of them)
@lauradoestheastro Laura, I love that upon reading a comment about someone knowing someone mentioned in a video, that comment is written by someone I know (on the internet).
Wow I just got way too excited to find out you can use the word schadenfreude in english too. I watched the part like 5 times and was every time like '' No way!''
