[ellbob1]

i want "no children" by the mountain goats playing at my wedding.

[TheAllKnowingTribute]

And you when I'm down to my DFTBA socks what time it is.

It's awesome, it's awesome time.

[chexmixultimate]

I actually think that's a little awesome of Ashton Kutcher to follow you so you'd donate for malaria. I mean, not like it's hard to click "follow" or anything, but still.

[Wandererdashdash1]

Who thinks he's a little...odd?

[HaShomeret]

the food at my wedding had nuts in it. I am allergic to nuts. another thing to try to avoid when you get married is only having access to food that you are allergic to.

[emer3c]

Trout fishing in america! Dinosaurs are cool was my fav song! that takes me back...

[SerPinkKnight]

scorge?

[Ellisaphant]

@SerPinkKnight scourge-

a whip or lash, especially for the infliction of punishment or torture. (or)

a person or thing that applies or administers punishment or severe criticism. (or)

a cause of affliction or calamity: Disease and famine are scourges of humanity.

Yay for dictionaries!

[SerPinkKnight]

@Ellisaphant I know what it means, he just didn't say it right

[Ellisaphant]

@SerPinkKnight I think it depends on accents, because I have heard it said that way before.

[thehumanfruitsalad]

316 pushups

[SkullJokeBrook]

About 9 months after this weekend, Henry was born.

[bluidemenace1]

PUSHUPS?????

[madeleinelily0]

Why don't you sign your name in copies of your new book 317 times a day, no wait, that'd be ridiculous... OH WAIT.

[bwaynerd2027]

Do you often get invited to nerdfighter weddings...?

[glic6616]

I love the little "skhhhh" at the end of the intro.

[ddc32997]

WATER SHOTS

It'd be awesome if I was right(im watching them through for the first tim)

[AnnieBananie712]

[RachelBerryGoldStar]

Oh my god the elephant!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm pretty sure that is the same elephant I was obsessed with when I was three because I saw it on Mr. Rogers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NiNjAxLeMoNs]

How did I ever forget that there used to be an intro.

[Hannah6412]

I looked. Ashton is still following John!! Go nerdfighteria!

[sgtpepper19671]

marriage venues is the disadvantage of puppy sized elephants

[XxLokiRabbitxX]

My wedding, is taking place inside of an elephant. If you promise to come. I will have my wedding inside of an elephant.

[aang94479]

Ashton Kutcher isn't following John anymore.

[okod146]

THE WINDOW! THE WINDOW! SHE THREW HIM OUT THE WINDOW!

[crazycookie76]

@okod146 who threw who out the window?

[cpdomg]

I will forever regret not attending the event which featured Peter, John Green, and TROUT FISHING IN AMERICA all in the same place.

[Rayne0804]

"So yeah Nerdfighters, if you want Hank and I to come to your wedding, put it in an elephant." ---*ahem* erm, Hank and me. just saying ;]

[fluffandstuf]

wait wait wait were you in an elephant or were they

[Johannasmirror]

I LOVE TROUT FISHING IN AMERICA

[vngaris]

hey! no making fun of trout fishing in america! they were my favorite band when I was little! And when we play it for my 4 year old brother I can um...still sing all the words...

[mirosango14]

again, how about "for malaria AWARENESS."

[s0llypop]

WAIT. i love trout fishing in america.

[FadeAwayIntoDarkness]

The summer time song for that elephant is on all the time. It has been six years since i lived there and i can still hear in my head "Lucy the elephant, Lucy the elephant, Lucy the elephant, Lucy the elephant, Lucy the elephant, Lucy the elephant...." over and over and over....

[hgtrangtran]

Hahaha so funny!!!

[elmo81409]

I miss this intro soooo much!

[OddballEndorser]

1:56 - reminds me of Lily and Marshall's wedding from How I Met Your Mother :)

[twihard398]

theres a girl i know and, well, her name is Malaria. I have no clue what her parents were thinking but i do have a clue why she likes this video!

[dudeitsyouknow]

hey, i know that im reaally late, but that mary-fran who you saw get married is my librarian at my school...........

[agricolaterrae]

Lucy the Elephant! My film class did a documentary on her.

[Reggie1316]

I LIVE IN NEW JERSEY. RELATIVELY NEAR THAT ELEPHANT. :D

[PotterPerson44]

I WENT TO THAT ELEPHANT :D

I bought a shirt where it's dressed up in Disco clothes :)

(weird-sounding comments ftw)

[SirTeeGeeEss]

Don't forget to be Argyll.

[rcnrcn927]

Build 317 houses

[UnEulogized]

I am not getting married in an elephant, in fact I'm not getting married at all because I feel that it might derail my budding university career, but I had a dream the other day in which I was getting married and my vows included the line "I will always put you before my love of Doctor Who," (which means I must have REALLY loved him because that sounds impossible) and this video reminded me of it...

[RenegadeJuggler]

How about 317 push ups?

[SantaMurtagh]

Would you come to my wedding if it was entirely Nerdy XD cause I plan on it being so. Outdoors with a mixture of PotC and Star Wars wedding types. The vows will be in A mixture of Quenya, Sinidrin, and the Ancient Language. and we will be in costume, still deciding that one heh

[MyLIfeStudios]

@SantaMurtagh arn't all vows made in the ancient language , ohh maybe thats why so many people get divorced. shoulda got there wifes to swear loyalty to them the ancient language

[Nita1218]

Put it in an elephant :)

[abbygoboom]

you could review the grammar rules of the use of "I" versus "me" 317 times. That would make me happy

[erink0118]

Lucy! My father and my step mother were actually the first to get married there back in 2001. I'm so happy to see that it is still awesome.

[PassTheSkittles]

This video is 9 months and 1 day before Henry Green was born...hmm.

[NotReallyHereSoYea]

I went to comment on this video, when I noticed all the racist, hateful comments. I was like wow, when did nerdfighters get so cruel? Then I noticed the most mundane comments involved arabs and police officers, which confused me even further, and I was wondering what the hell did I miss in the video, when I scrolled up and apparently the little grey box/bar had whisked me off to a completely different video....... on the one hand, things finally made sense. But, I was still soo confused.

[artvandelay13]

Awesome! So all I have to do to meet you is find an elephant to get married in? Consider it done.

...Of course I'd also have to find someone to marry...

[SvetaTheRussianSpy]

Lucy the Elephant!!!! YAY!! Lucy is the most awesome elephant in all of South Jersey!!

[AutoF0cus]

If you had asked the 8 year-old me, it would have been perfectly acceptable for you and Petter Yarrow to open for Trout Fishing in America.

... I had a mild obsession

[xXxQueenieChanxXx]

Uhh, I don't know about the elephant, but I know someone who got married inside a giraffe. :-)

[MrBubbles5016]

317 book reviews

[regularguy5mb]

DFTBA Socks!?

I needs ta get me a pair of those.

Also, married in an elephant, eh? Interesting idea...

[McManiacGirl]

where's that elephant?

i need to know to plan my wedding...

[HikariKain]

Drink 317 blended Happy Meals : D

[DarlingBeckizzle]

Would you and Hank really come to my wedding if I had it in an elephant? - cause I'd do it.

[MrCarbon42]

No, you won't. And no, he and Hank won't. :)

[BreeLa19]

@DarlingBeckizzle I would get married in an elephant too if they came.

[xArtemisFowlx]

He should do 317 push ups lol

[peoplecallmeagoth]

Oh, and btw twilight fans, he considers himself (if you watched all his videos, you would know) one of the only twilighters, and NFL (or something like that) fans existing.

so stop posting hate comments on these videos. he doesnt deserve it.

And in my opinion every single one of Johns books were way better than the twilight saga. They were well written, and was not about a crazy vampire salker who has no character and is only pretty.

[KadajusFunToy]

Well put <3

Twilight has become a teeny-bopper craze now.

It's kind of disgusting.

[peoplecallmeagoth]

My sister has a puff the magic dragon doll.

i still remember the theme song.

:D

[sammori12]

317 pushups

[fiveisno1]

What organizaton do john and hank donate to?

[Nerdfighter21]

Anyone and everyone out there who started their comments with "John Green doesn't dersve to have fans" good lord, think of something a bit more intellecutal, becuase seveteen comments have already said that. And another thing--John Green already has fans and friends--you guys? you have only enemies.

[sunshinegirl2209]

FYI I love Twilight and I love all John green's books chill

[moonlight9283]

John Green's books are pieces of shit. Twilight is much better and he has no fucking right to bash these books in every fucking video of his. TWILIGHT IS MUCH BETTER AND THAT'S A FACT SO GET OVER IT FAGGOTS.

[cezzie901]

moonlight9283, why are Twilight fans so hostile?

Why does it matter if there are people in the world who don't like Twilight?

[scargirl133]

Wait when did he "bash" Twilight, he never called Twilight anything he didn`t even talk about Twilight. He never talkd about it, or in this vidio at least, adn your a total retard because Twilight is better then Paper Towns is a opinion not a fact.

[habojspade]

317 backflips?

[habojspade]

How come the nerdfigher symbol has the thumbs close to the hand compared to where Spock has it away from the hand.

[moonlight9283]

John Green doesn't deserve to have any fans!! The only people that like his books are stuck-up Twilight haters that think they are so fucking intellectual for liking his books. GUESS WHAT? In John Green's books the girl is always described as being the HOTTEST GIRL EVER. HOW IS THAT DIFFERENT FROM TWILIGHT YOU FUCKING HYPOCRITES? In Twilght Edward is described as gorgeous but in EVERY John Green book the lead female is also described that way!!!. WHICH MEANS HE'S A HYPOCRITE.

[roxanney4]

1) i love twilight.

2) you are a fucking moron. you DO NOT look smart by posting this multiple times on john green's videos. if you hate him so much, please think of an actually reasonable insult that makes at least a small bit of sense.

[scargirl133]

I like Twilight and John Green. You do not know the meaning of hypocrite. Why are you even watching this vidio. Quite frankly your a moron. Posting that comment just makes you look stupid.

[moonlight9283]

J

ohn Green doesn't deserve to have any fans!! The only people that like his books are stuck-up Twilight haters that think they are so fucking intellectual for liking his books. GUESS WHAT?
