  • Both are good, but in looking at views/responses to the direct video, haircut is better. Shit happens sometimes. Every so often the cover for a song is better than the original song. Deal with it. Not everyone gets the credit they deserve, no amount of complaining online will help.

  • Two facts: 1) Broski is a plagiarist; 2) Broski's video is WAY funnier than this one.

  • The uploader comes off as an over-protective closeted homosexual defending his secret crush. That, or a gay version of Michael Cera.

  • If Broski wanted to make a funnier version of Mike Polk's idea, he should've credited Polk as the original writer, and thrown a percentage of whatever ad/t-shirt money he makes to Polk.

    He didn't however, which makes Broski a plagiarist, simple as that.

  • Cheese is good

    

  • Neither are funny

  • Broski is the shit. Sry but the play sucked. Don't be mad broski did way way better take it as a compliment and drop it.

  • whatever the truth is. your queer play sucked!! lmao my new haircut raped you.

  • my new haircut is better my striped shirt you kiddin me thats retared id rather have a fresh haircut than a faget ass shirt mike sucks ass and he deserves a deduct a point f@ckin yager bombs!

  • Both videos are hopeless. Problem solved.

  • You know why your buddy, Mike, doesn't care? Because his video sucked and Broski made it better. Get over it.

  • While I admit that the NEW HAIRCUT did not credit his inspiration, nobody gives a crap that Tarantino ripped off Switchblade Sisters or Lady Snowblood...because he made a much, much better product than the original. New haircut actually sold the material, rather than just scream it.

    Some people are writers, some are performs. 

  • U mad Broski brah did it better than our un-aesthetic friend.

    y u mad.

    Thumbs up broskis.

  • your a piece of shit man... go fuck yourself

  • This is just troll food. The trolls can't resist it. Liking My New Haircut at all shows our bad taste but liking it better then the original(if you've even seen it) is just pathetic. Mike's video in its entirety is awesome and does clearly lose some of its appeal diced up and grainy. Oh and at least hes not a disgusting greasy guido who can hardly speak English aside from to rip off a year old youtube video and claim it as his own. Just sad really.

  • The bottom line here no matter how you "feel" about this is that My New Haircut is an Internet and YouTube sensation and most people don't even know this sketch exists. Those are the facts and these things happen all the time so hopefully you will get over it. You don't see or hear L2X Productions complaining to MTV about Jersey Shore do you?

  • dude... please realize that ur friends video is a disgrace to all funny videos. the world is better off now that Broski made his New Hair Cut video. according to me, its not stolen and u and ur friend are losers. try making a funny video and maybe this wont happen.

    peace

  • Even if your friend's act WAS the inspiration for "my new haircut", it's a PARODY, and is NOT plagiarism under the Fair Use Act. You sound like Tommy Wiseau bitching at the Nostalgia Critic.

    And now there are TONS of imitators of the "My new haircut" guy, who made it much better. All's well that ends well.

  • The reason that My New haircut is funnier than the Striped Shirt video is that the Striped Shirt video was basically the man who wrote the article reading it live at a comedy club. If you're literate(but this is the youtube comments section, what am I saying) read the original at the Phat Phree. Anyone who says that New Haircut isn't plagiarism would probably also argue that Vanilla Ice didn't rip off Queen and David Bowie.

  • BROSKI KILLS IT , STRIPED SHIRT GAY

  • who gives a shit My New Haircut is just funnier.

  • STFU My New Haircut is the shit.

  • If your friend doesnt care why are you getting in his business?

  • @Kentalish right...

  • Browski Delivers, striped shirt fails

  • my new striped shirt is gay, my new hair cut is not its hilarious. so thats what i fucking think

    ok

  • so... They took your video... Along with the awsome new york/new jersey club scene trends and made it ten times better then your gay ass striped button up video.

  • lets face it .. MY new haircut didnt claim to create the sketch SOOO his success is where Mike Polk failed he didnt produce it in a way that people would want to watch it

  • The only thing people had to do was troll. Super.

    Grow up asstards, it's comedy. It is supposed to make you laugh. Not bring forth emotions of hatred and the inability to understand artistic expression.

  • thing about that...broski knows how to deliver a joke...you...not so much. u should be thanking him he made "your concept" better.

  • stop hatin on broski.

  • Broski owns this guy.

  • Concept of taking something and making it better.

  • Broski all day!

  • @ hurly149100: so true brother, so true....broski rules, mike polk sucks D*$#

  • broski all da way

  • 2 fuckin jager bombs in your ass

  • Broski made it what it is, get over it

  • You guys fail, Browski fucking owns this routine!

  • he did a much better job than you guys. Besides it's not word for word. And the topic is a shirt and his is a haircut. Very similar but so distinct at the same time. Everyone gets their time to shine and he got his. Except his video had me dying laughing.

  • I mean yea it was plagiarized but its like taking an old movie and doing a remake of it and the remake being A LOT better then the old movie. New Haircut> Striped Shirt

  • Mike Polk rocks. Broski is annoying. My opinion.

  • Wow so they both stole the idea from an article, except that your friend's video was shitty and my new haircut was awesome

  • hahahahahaha

  • i know why mike didn't want to make a big deal out of this...his preformance was fucking lame dude...broski OWNS your boy

  • no offense but yea your friend didn't seem funny at ALL.. the kid who made the my new haircut video actually went out to clubs on LI and NY nd shit nd was fucking hysterical. just bc someone wrote a book about actual events.. (bc this shit, as sad as it is does happen) nd then your friend attempted a performance of it.. which by the looks of it was a monumental failure, and then was copied by the kid on youtube does not mean that your friend deserves any credit.. it only proves he's not funny.

  • you and mike are both fuckin pussies

  • dude the "original video" was fucking gay

  • ya well ur video sucks balls so shut it biatch

  • fuck this shit. my new haircut was the trillest vid up on the net. fuck ya.

    fuck the stripped shirt shit. fuck it with a fat chode. fuck.

    who gives two fucks. i just gave you 8

  • That's 6, chief.

  • I see your point. But the striped tee shirt dude wasnt as funny To me. and apparently everyone else. its not personal. harness the bad and release it!! feel better

  • He was clowning your stupid ass friends. After all they are comedians!! Duh.

  • He may of stole it the generalized idea, but he capitalized and made it so much better. "not right now chief I'm in the fucking zone", He changed it a fair bit into his own personal creativity! = it ain't stolen just revised.

  • Holy shit man my new haircut blows this out the water. I know you feel bad for your friend and all but fact is Broski went out of his way to make it that much more better, and the end result being that everyone loves that shit.

  • @Irishevans indeed... Everything about my new haircut is better, I don't care if it wasn't a totally original idea. How many things in this world are totally original ideas anymore? And even if someone comes up with something on his own, it's probably already been done ANYWAY. All I know is My New Haircut is better. Broski actually plays the part right.

  • Well maybe if your friends striped shirt video wasnt lame your friend would be where Broski is.

  • so your friend copied it from a book, and my new haircut copied it from actual life experiences, probably the same ones the book was based off of... anyone that's been to Neptune's on Long Island or been down the shore knows how sadly true my new haircut is... plus your friend didn't seem too funny which is probably why he doesn't mind 'my new haircut' ...

  • wow that stripped shirt sucked...

  • My new hair cut.... Ten times more bad ass then my striped shirt.... Hands down!!! Mix that with Vinnie the Chin... and you have pure GOLD

  • Get over it you whiny little girl

  • U and ur friend suck.

  • You're such a fucking tool

  • shower in that shit

  • My new haircut blows this shit outta the water pal so suck it !

  • My new Haircut is better anyway so go cry in a corner where we don't have to see you.

  • First off your complaining because you think someone else stole your friends idea which makes you a hypocrite because your friend took the idea from a book. Second if your friends act was suppose to be funny, tell him to stop it sucks. And third My new haircut is the shit!

  • the my new haircut is mother fuckin way better cause i know guys like that

  • the creator of my new haircut prob got his ideas from that everybody gets their ideas from another source usualy your really dumb you homo

  • "Usualy"? Try: usually. "Your really dumb"?  No, YOU'RE dumb. Learn to spell, you motherfucking cocksucker. Your mother is a fuckin' skank and you love cock in your ass!

  • wow listen just because i didn't want to stay on this shit video i rushed the comment and didn't read over it and just posted it,also my mother doesnt come into this little fight going on here, just because your mad YOU'RE mom is a skank n doesn't love you doesn't mean you come on to youtube and try and diss people you little 12 year old girl get a life n try to stop acting cool on youtube.

  • OK, Wordsworth, don't get all defensive just because you can't write very well. Let's go over our grammar lesson again. You're obviously not getting it. You wrote: " . . . just because your mad . . ." Once again, it's: YOU'RE mad. Pay attention!

  • im not really getting defensive because im rushing through these comments just to say what i think i dont care if it comes out a lil bit wrong soo ye bye bye

  • Wow. They 'allegedly' took your friends idea. I'm sure you can't prove anything besides the small bits of simularity you posted on this video. Sounds to me like the broski guys took it to the next level instead of your friends weak ass shit. Your boy should be thanking those guys for what little recognition he gets from this little video of yours. Fuckin skank.

  • What bull shit, you are an idiot, and your friends version sucked

  • Broski is just funnier and your friend has an annoying voice

  • honestly i'd say that 99% of youtube including me has plagiariased at least once in their life and doesnt give a fuck about it

    so why would we care if my new haircut is a stolen idea

    its funny as shit

    gtfo

  • Last time I checked...Just because McDonald's sells a hamburger doesn't mean it needs to give Burger King any money...Sure it sounds similar, does that mean it was stolen/taken/used in any way?...No...And if it was?...Who cares?...apples to oranges...Similar words or not...My New Haircut is an entire different breed...and if you think guidos don't and haven't already talked like that then feel free to come to NJ...I've lived here for 24 years and can guarantee you, they do...

  • your right frank...that striped shirt dude shoulda made a better video then, but it had to suck so too bad

  • who cares, my new haircut is better and funnier.

  • Yeah, the first one sucks, taking someones idea that sucks and actually making it funny, whats so wrong with that?

  • so what...maybe if the 1st one didnt suck there wouldnt of had to have been a remake

  • The striped shirt is FAIL.

    Haircut ftw.

    \,,/

  • similar...sure...but the striped shirt one SUCKS HARD.

  • You need to be bitch slapped.

  • Heres the difference, Haircut is funnier. Stripped shirt isnt.

    Game

    Blouses

  • Its called a parody, go fuck yourself.

  • My new haircut is 100 times funnier.

  • this dude sounds jealous lol

  • might be stolen video acts but hey sounds looks and is so much better than the original.

  • It was probably a rip off but the video production of my new haircut and the acting is way better in the "my new haircut" version. So in fact, the plagiarizers actually did some good for this sorry production by bringing it some publicity.

  • You see this...it's my new fucking hair cut!!!

    Quit being such a fucking pussy, MNSS just isn't as good.

  • plagiarism isnt cool. no matter which one was better... its illegal.

  • It's only illegal if copyrighted, dumbass. That's why those websites that say they want to help you with your inventing to get it patented steal it and they get it copyrighted for themselves. 100% legal.

  • Thoughts:

    There are clearly similarities there and the makers of My New Haircut probably did see that and borrow from it. HOWEVER, people obviously like My New Haircut better. Maybe it's funnier. Maybe it was marketed better. Maybe it was just in the right place at the right time. In my opinion I think its success may be because it's an actual production, not just 5 guys on a stage doing a skit. Sounds like you're the one trying to gain success from them. If your friend doesn't care, shut up.

  • haha its true, but thats clearly performed on a stage, pretty cool though. that it got stolen and switched a little. guido-fying it made it more hilarious anyway though.

  • brett broski makes thaT VID!your guys version sucked shit anyway

  • ya that stripped shirt one sucked...reason...my new haircut was better cuz its more realalistic not just some fuck tards on a stage sayin wut they r going to do...talk is cheap... lifes a bitch...My new haircuts better

  • Wow. This CAN'T be a coincidence. I gotta say, I like the striped shirt version more. See, THAT one is funny. The new haircut one just reminds me of TOO many people I don't care for.

  • joe your mates video suked.

    bretts video rocked.

    end of story

  • My Striped Shirt may have the original material, but its all about presentation. My New Haircut MADE the material what it is.

  • Okay, so he got the idea from your boys vid but my new hair cut is way funnier than my new striped shirt. I didn't even laugh at it. MNSS was a horrible preformance.

  • This guy sounds like a super dork loser, my new haircut is wayyyyy better.

  • The similarities are there; and probably most of My New Haircut was either taken from that essay or video. I would be 100% behind this if they made fun of the same stereotype. My New Haircut = Guido. My Striped Shirt = Douche Businessmen

  • Maybe they both stole it from the book and my new haircuts version was just done much better.

  • see the difference is, your buddy's video sucked and the "plagerized" (spelling?) one is hilarious.

  • all this proves is my new haircut is way more funny than some guys skit

  • You've opened my eyes

  • wow

  • ....so?

  • How did he make fun of himself? He's doing the same thing Polk is doing, except for the fact that Polk is mocking douchebags in general, the guy doing My New Haircut is making fun of a specific brand of douchebag: the guido.

  • see the thing about the first video is that it sucks real bad

  • Well, the sound quality, anyways. The first video is funny in it's own right, but I've had to listen to it two or three times to get what he was saying completely.

  • my new haircut is better anyway

  • Well, I like the original, don't get me wrong. It's just easier to understand what they're saying in My New Haircut. It's the same basic premise with the same exact goal.

  • guys, it doesn't really matter whose video is better. what matters is that the idea was taken without credit. so yup. that sucks

  • My new haircut is at least 17000 times better at least..

    SO fuck that old shit

  • My new haircut was way funnier than this video, you're just upset that their video's better, and you're trying to take credit for their video. Fuck off buddy.

  • "My New Haircut" sucked. I didn't even crack a smile.

    He managed to rip off Mike Polk while completely missing the point, the sarcasm, AND making it nauseatingly boring.

  • Really? Because I thought My New Haircut reeked of sarcasm, I found it quite entertaining, and I think My New Haircut was less a stab at douchebags in general and more a stab at a specific group of douchebags: the guidos.

  • Comment removed

  • wow ur friends vid deserved to get stolen

    sorry every1 likes theres and not urs and ur pissed about it

    u suck

  • who gives a shit

  • You're friends idea sucked, and hes a bad actor.

    You suck.

    My new haircut rocks.

    Sucked in.

  • my new hair cut is sooo much better. sorry.

  • I can see what your saying, but this type of thing happens all the time when it come to entertainment. I wouldn't lose too much sleep over a youtube vid. If youre really pissed off about it try to outdo "My New Hair Cut", there is more than enough material to go around about egotistical meathead donkeys.

  • My new haircut was funnier and they only stole like 2 lines from the other thing.

  • I think both versions suck.

  • your friends video sucked balls.

    it doesnt even compare to the newer version.

    so shut up. no one cares.

  • I'm laughing at the people commenting saying "your friend's video sucked!" because they obviously no nothing about runawaybox.

  • You're right we don't know about runawaybox, yet the video still sucks. What's your point?

  • I never said I liked the video.

  • So your friend made a lame video based on a book and someone else took it, added a hilarious stereotype and made lots of people keel over laughing. News flash - most ideas are re-used and are only successful if they are better than the original. I suppose you want to sue the Simpsons for doing hilarious remakes of old movies and shows too? No one cares about your friend Mike and I am glad he is not pissed. He should be flattered someone would take his essay and make something funny from it.

  • this is the saddest thing i've ever seen. massive failure.

  • dude same video. one difference. one was funny.  fuckin skanks

  • your tough

  • seems like to me that someone is just being a bitch because there friends video sucked balls! all those video's are retarded, but if i had to choose one.. it would def. be my new hair cut.. not that my new striped shirt bullshit. CRY SOME MORE BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111­1111111

  • similar not stolen

    calm down buddy

  • your a hurting fuck buddy

  • whew the jager part got a little intense lol

  • yeah right!!! any1 know where i can get one of those my new hair cut t-shirts??

  • It looks like their video was just partly inspired by that not completely ripped off. Your friend should enjoy it - "imitation is the highest form of flattery."

    And no offense, but the MNH guys made it way funnier.

  • Similar, not stolen. Think your friend should cough up the dough for the shirt since his version wasn't funny.

  • Damn the new haircut guy has t-shirts. If it wasn't for this shit video I would have never known. I have to get one.

  • Truth is, it's internet content, and it isn't copyrighted...

    So you can CRY about it all you want, but you can't actually DO anything about it...

  • bobstilfelmen11111 welll fuckin said.. you need to work on them biceps you fuckin mook

  • No one gives a fuck.

  • no fukin way its the same the striped shirt shit sucks bunch of dush bags

  • but my new hair cutr is just better and funnier so i dont care

  • God Brett broski Vinny the chin those are the greats and they have great haircuts what do you have a wack ass video crying cause your a super dork loser with a wack ass haircut

  • they made it funny so its ok

    dont sweat it

  • what a gay video, the other guys obviously made a better one then you so let it go faggots

  • Fuck you Joe, my strped shirt is stupid. Fucking 30 year old man trying to be funny on the internet. Go pay your fucking taxes and leave the fucking jager bombing to us.

  • Blow me Joe!

  • Yeah I see the similarity except the striped shirt one is 1000 time shittier.

  • LOL

  • my new haircut owns this retarded shit.

  • yeah but that polk guy didnt make up the best line there

    "not right now chief im in the fuckin zone"

  • ok lets all play violines so he can cry some more

  • Who cares, you suck, Brett Broski made MY NEW HAIRCUT fuckin awsome, what did u do? You friend made some gay shit and Brett made it awsome. He is the fuckin man and you arent!

  • people also complain that family guy rips off the simpsons. even if that's the case, family guy does it better than the simpsons EVER did.

    haircuts are better than striped shirts.

    want credit? do it well enough to make people remember it.

  • well fuckin said, fuckin jagar bombs

  • my new haircut is way better

    like

    way better

  • I watched this shirt video he speaks of.... it was pretty shitty my new haircut was way better and funnier. too bad for this guy his video just made him and his buddy look more like asses

  • yea dude, but at least is way funnier my new hair cut. so you can stop this shit....

    MY newy hair cut for ever....

    you and your friend sucks

  • In two months no one is going to remember any of this.

  • Lol i rather watch my new haircut than that piece of shyt. Cant knock the guido cause he mad that shyt funny.

  • u guys are fucking lame. Mike Polk is a fucking genius. Go check out anything associated with the man. Seriously.

  • Who cares.

  • Regardless of who came up with the joke first, Polk did a poor job of presenting it.

  • sorry your friends sucked so badly that he couldnt get "credit for his own work"

  • aha mike polk someone took your video and made it way fuckin funnier.. fuck your shitty drama group

  • if the words aren't the same then it's not the same..same general idea ..the "my new haircut" was done wayyyy better..ur friend sucks...

  • Go fuck yourself, Mike Polk.

  • wow.. he's right.. the only difference between the two videos is that his friend mike's video sucks balls..

  • It's all about presentation and performance asshole.

    Why do you think VHS > Beta? as an example.

    Quit crying and find something else useless to argue about with your life.
