Things I'm Not Thankful For

[24Pianist]

My name is Alice. You will not believe how many Wonderland refernces I have heard throughout my life...

[KnifeDown]

Hank. I see your issue with show characters named Hank....

I'm Edward.... yea... I think you know why I mentioned this. I feel your pain.

[schnitzeltruck1]

dont worry hank your my favorite

[signifyingsomething]

To be fair, it's not even your name. :)

[EarthLaughsAtYou]

@Monkeyfro4 Things I Am Annoyed by:

[EarthLaughsAtYou]

@Monkeyfro4 Oh, Dear I am horrified at your statements

[idreamonpointe]

Hahahhahaha, not a fun time to have a poop named after you...

[TheGangstagnome]

A lot of name-stealing in pop culture sucks, but a little name-stealing in pop culture is almost worst, because you don't expect it. So when I'm watching a show and there's someone named Kyle, I freak out a little bit (Prime example: Last Man Standing, that sitcom with Tim Allen [shut up, Tim Allen is awesome]).

[yknowthatgirl]

@TheGangstagnome I can't have a conversation with someone over the age of 40 saying "Brittany? Heh, Britney Spears. I'm going to call you that."

[MichelleTEditor]

I share Hank's annoyance with evolutionary debates, and would like to add in any given religion, but especially Christianity and Islam. Youtube debates are something like 50% Decepticon-filled on both sides.

[musechick101]

Is it sad that when I think of romp, I go straight to the Producers? "Springtime for Hitler: A Gay Romp..." lol

[iamacatspy]

Word for the wise. Do not listen to the gang sign with headphones on.

[LostxinthexMusic]

Hank, I feel you on the whole name stealing thing. Every pop culture instance of my name (Caroline) is an inherently not-so-pleasant person. Even Jane Austen uses the name Caroline for an obnoxious chick who no one's really supposed to like. It upsets me.

[shoothoot]

@LostxinthexMusic John named someone in TFIOS Caroline so your name isnt the best example :P

[LostxinthexMusic]

@shoothoot Well whatayaknow! I haven't read TFiOS yet, so I wouldn't know. Also, that makes me really happy. :-)

[TheRabbit245]

On New Girl (the new show with Zooey Deschanel in) in the Thanksgiving episode they said it was Hanksgiving. And I screamed.

[DTE887]

I thought your really name was William?

[Monkeyfro4]

Things I am annoyed by:

Anyone who says JK Rowling is a great author and has never read "The Hobbit"

Improper use of the English language (Gay does not specifically refer to homosexual, for example)

Anyone who values other virtues over self-awareness

Anyone pretending that the Big Bang is a greater leap of faith than belief in God

Anyone pretending the Big Bang Theory is worth watching

Anyone who does not like the Mountain Goats

Also listen to the Mountain Goats

[Bobthenerdfighter]

@pust1989 How many vlog brothers videos have you seen? One?

[TheKnoLawjick]

... so how about that evolution?

[Fudgadelical]

I AM A GIGANTIC AND UNINTERESTING DEBATE ABOUT EVOLUTION!

BLEUGH!

[hrtgirl1990]

I hate the factI can't talk about evolution too, Hank

[TheFleurDeMer]

but Hank.... your real name is not Hank!

[ApplesRubbish]

Giant Squids of Anger stole half of the video :(

[lstone333]

you have an unsupportable position on the national anthem

[pust1989]

so...john is your brother? i tough it was i kind of way to refer to hall watching the video. and i tough you were strange.

[tekna2908]

@pust1989 yes John is his brother, this channel in fact started as a project, where they had to communicate only through videos xD

[harrySTINKINpotter]

just watched some of your early videos, and then watched this one. There have been some major changes.... like you now speak 140 word per minute. As apposed to then, when you spoke only 60 wpm.

[CrazyStalkerPerson]

Ahh my fingers really hurt now, and I don't even play guitar!

[pvmsband]

theres a little man inside of you??? you should get that looked at.



[veritasuser]

i like hank better john kind of annoys me

[thespianwaffles]

You know what annoys me? John's singing.

[Drscompanion311]

Oh my! I totally loved that book! And he was one of the authors? That's amazing!

[girlwiththepurplehat]

OHMYGOD YOU WATCH BONES. WHAT?! YOU HAVE JUST BECOME ONE MILLION TIMES COOLER.

[jaimegrl1515]

UM correction: Booth's father is not named hank, his grandfather is named Hank. He just calls him Pop because Hank raised Booth and his brother.

[suburiboy]

[insert uninteresting rage about evolution]

[BviR778]

your my favorite. Just saying

[PirateFrodoCullen]

Hank is making a funny face when you pause at the beginning xD

[stude444]

What happened to the pickgaurd on your guitar?

[HabsFan0718]

ROYAL PAINS!!!!!

[beatlesfanno9]

I'm annoyed by those phone things that go in your ear and people wear when they walk down the street. It looks like they're talking to themselves. And then they swear at the person on the phone and...yeah.

[MissJuniorMinty]

Things I am Annoyed by

Off key singing

Reality TV

Using "gay" as an insult

Acne

Extreme Twilight fangils

World suck

[TheC0mart]

@MissJuniorMinty Just from reading this, I like you.

[maxmanrules]

@MissJuniorMinty You misspelled fangirls.

I am, however, now afraid of fishing in fear I will pull up a dread fish with Extreme Twilight Fangils

[BobofWOGGLE]

@MissJuniorMinty That's almost the same as my list, only 'idiot who denies evolution' replaces acne.

[bulldoger11]

@MissJuniorMinty

Don't forget the people who don't know any Shakespeare, especially for insults.

"Thou are but a ragged wart"

(troll): "Your a gay virgin nerd. Go F*** yourself.

(Nerdfighter): "Blister'd be thy tongue for such a wish!"

If I got anything wrong, I am sorry. I am mostly a math nerd.

[ChelsieOliviaa]

The things I am most annoyed by:

-People who can't tell the difference between 'your' and 'you're'.

-Jersey Shore.

-People who find reading to be stupid.

-My sister.

-Long, knotted cords.

[khoraski]

I don't even get the whole argument over the gays thing. I wish they would leave other people alone and other people could just leave them alone.

Most sides are ignorant of the other side. Most people who bash Evolution don't even understand it. Most people who bash Christianity are ignorant to it as well. Everyone has a logical basis to their beliefs, and won't give up their sides because of an immature internet person.

Just get over it. Stop arguing and ruining other people's fun.

[khoraski]

Yeah, that is annoying. If you mention Evolution, Christianity, Islam, that falls under the categories of "religion" and will cause ignorant debates.

If you mention politics, this causes the same thing.

If you mention an opinion on homosexuality, it could cause the same thing.

These are topics that only an ignorant person would debate. Because really, politics are all opinions and the winner wins in the end. Evolution and the Bible both have supporting science and facts, but can't be proven.

[Ignelux]

People who use the term 'pet peeve' annoy me, and also the name Elliot. No offense to any Elliots out there, I just abhor your name.

[Acg3996]

After watching over half of the vlogbrothers videos, I have started to speak like Hank.

[Plyrx08]

I'm in debate so whenever a conversation with my mom has anything to do with morality, I begin saying things like deontology and utilitarian and she's like "SHUT UP I DON'T WANT TO DEBATE WITH YOU" right after I say something cool. D:

[skullandswords]

Have john go through chinese water torture for 1 hour. It works.

[pokemonmaster181818]

HAPPY HANKSGIVING 2011!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[andyanderson100]

I love the book theif!

[505CoDplayer]

Punishment for john- make a Him eat a jar of pepper olives then put ghost pepper on hot wings :D

[B1tchOfLiving82]

There was a Turkey named Hank on New Girl for their Thanksgiving episode :P They even used the term Hanksgiving haha

[BIBIisBOREDXD]

I convinced my parents that Hanksgiving was a real holiday. DFTBA

[freeesocks]

New girl? Yes? Anyone?

[lagcactus]

[Insert way to punish John here]

[snarkergirl101]

I See the book thief Twice! One Right next to Hank! and one Right next to me! :D

[CelesteAoi96]

trolls.trolls irk me.they irk me an enormous amount.

[HariSlate]

I want to read Let it Snow. I cannot get Let it Snow. Sometimes I hate England.

[DyingPickle]

People that won't read and do something just because everybody else is doing it....

[Tahonamaya]

I love how there isn't a huge debate in the comments about evolution XD

[peerieweirdo]

I really hate when adults try to be 'cool', or try to make something 'attractive to youngsters' by misspelling.

Kool Kidz?! Really?!

[westexchi]

eat peeps dipped in hot sauce this if for john



[synchrogirl978]

I'm annoyed when people ask me why I don't call myself Katie. Maybe it's because my last name has not one but TWO e sounds. And the fact that I would either sound like I was actually mentally retarded or I would sound like my parents don't love me.

[TheHannaFactor]

my name is hanna and i'm annoyed by the fact that every time i introduce myself people ask me if my name is hana, hanna or hannah

[MooseWoodson]

I am annoyed when I find people with the same name as me as well-although it happens much less than with many other people. There aren't a lot of people in the world named Emerald-and I want it to stay that way! :D

[thepowertoscream]

I am annoyed when people tell me my theory of evolution is wrong.

[SnowingWolfGirl]

I'm annoyed by people who get annoyed by me :P

[jml21000]

now this is my kind of holiday

[awkwardfour]

Hank Lawson from Royal Pains! That's the concierge doctor. I really like that show.

[j2n2sB]

You now (in the present) have 71,021 people following you on twitter. happy?

[starrrry311]

it's not a romp.

[purplejoj]

punishment = dressing up like goth hank ;)

[TheRazombie]

I'm pretty sure Booth's grandfather's name is Hank, not his father. [Bones ftw ~ :D]

[NYUevanskis]

What about Breaking Bad?!?

[trevsiemens]

We need to bring the nerdfighter reload back!

[Lizmo21]

@trevsiemens Hey! I personally have never let the reload lax.

[h20melonlays]

@teganbowiefreak oh my gosh yes thats exactly what I was thinking!!!

[teganbowiefreak]

1:19 reminds me of banananeil.

[jofasis]

I have a friend whose name is Trees. It's pronounced like "trace", but still. Her name is Trees!

[MorgrasCurse]

It's ok Hank! You're my favorite!

[antisnotabug]

@HarakiriTora5 I'm in the same boat! New nerdfighter high five! /five

[HarakiriTora5]

@antisnotabug

Five! Even though I'm a week late responding to this I felt obligated to high five back.

Btw, love the username/account/etc. It's very nerdfightish.

[HarakiriTora5]

I'm annoyed that I found the vlogbrothers a mere 2 weeks ago. Now, I have to spend all - if any - free time I have trying to watch all 800, nearly 900 videos.

[LifeMustard]

@HarakiriTora5 Welcome to Nerdfighteria!

[HarakiriTora5]

@LifeMustard

Thanks :D

This is how Youtube - and the internet in general - should be, friendly. Sorry, trolls just get on my nerves, so I'm happy that there are people like nerdfighters to balance it out.

[MasterGrammarian]

My name is Dylana pronounced Dih-lain-nuh. I've only met one other person with this name. While no one on TV has this name, no one in real life knows how to say it. My parents thought I was going to be a boy so they named me Dylan but added an A at the end when I turned out to be a girl. Way to be lazy, Parents.

[teapotsbeatkettles8]

My name is India. As in the country. I've spent the entirety of my life being called china but their is one benefit!!! I have never seen on tv, one single person named India. So to all you people called Hayley or Lauren I think I both pwn you, and get pwned by you. And that my fellow nerdfighters, is the end of my long and boring debate, about evolution.

[Lauen324]

@teapotsbeatkettles8

My name is Lauren and I've never heard of a TV character named Lauren.

But maybe that's because I only watch kid's shows.

[TheAnnabanana72]

@Lauen324 My name is Sienna-Ivie. You are lucky. It's hard to say. It's two vowels next to eachother and that is not how you spell Ivie or Ivy as it should be.My brother is called Raoul and my sister is called Brooklyn Lee, which is also hard to say and no one knows how to properly pronounce Raoul. Our parents hate us.

And I know my user name gives no hints to what my name really is, it'sjust I like to imagine that a name as simple as Anna could ever be on my birth certificate. Lucky you Lauren

[Jordinazee]

My name is Jordan! I'm a girl and since I was little, my peers have been telling me, "that's a boys' name" Like I got to choose the name my parents chose for me on my birth certificate! Also there are two guys in my grade named Jordan and my school is NOT big. One of the Jordans' last name starts with the letter that come right before the 1st letter in my last name. So in class, if the teachers set us up in alphabetical order, by 1st or last name, I sit RIGHT NEXT TO JORDAN!

[hyperhellX2]

@Jordinazee  hey my name is Eianne (tha'ts pronounced Ian like a guy) but im a girl, so i know that feeling you get when people say "well that's a boy's name" and such... it really does such

[xloveablexmex13]

@suicunesrider my name is Rachel Elizabeth! that is truly the most common name on earth! it has seized to even BUG me anymore that television characters have my name because so many do. and Elizabeth? i know ( and i am not exaggerated here) at LEAST 8 people with my middle name. maybe more.

[dogluver92]

He watches Bones <3 

[VolunteerNerdfighter]

*pauses at 2:09; looks for gigantic and uninteresting debate*

Oh. There it is. -_-"

[suicunesrider]

and one more thing.... Good, God! You think HANK is an overused name! My name is. Hayley. HAY! LEY! It's the most common name (though maybe not the most common spelling of it) In the friggin world! D= *facepalm* I don't feel unique.... l3

[suicunesrider]

ZOMG know what I just realized?! John and Hank are like the Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert of Youtube! So full of truthiness! :D Pass it on if you agree! (But I understand if you don't. lol)

[suicunesrider]

MORE to the gigantic and uninteresting debate about evolution! :D YAY! *ahem* I am confused about the "God created Eve from Adam's rib" thing, because scientifically, females existed before males.... (which makes it even weirder how we call them "FE-males", as if females are just a varient of males. It should probably be the other way around.) .....though... I once heard that it may mean Eve came from a tribe that evolved FROM Adam's tribe of cavepeople, or something... THAT IS interesting! lol

[dob1997]

@suicunesrider the easist way to intepret the garden story is as a metaphor so that way evoulution is true but its also saying something about humans creating sin for themselves when they really didnt have to go there :) lol

[suicunesrider]

@dob1997 Yeah, that's a good point! ^__^

[dob1997]

@suicunesrider thankyou ^-^ :D

[bubbleninjacatgirl]

MAKE HIM SAY HE LOVES UNICORNS

[starkidfangirl]

Make John say Derp after every word for one whole video? I'm rubbish at this kind of thing. Sorry.

[FanofSunDrop]

I am a red head so right now my nicknames are mrs no sole carrot top red demon and harbinger of death ( I font get that one)

[IMCRAZIER2THEMAX]

sarah-jane, my uncle calls me sarah lee cakes *rips hair out* grrrrrrrrrr

BTW what kind of name is that,people also call me mary jane and on dr. who there is an old companion called sarah-jane(sj) and the sj adventures about her and im always uncomfortable when I hear that name 4 other ppl

and there is a hank on corner gas

[IMCRAZIER2THEMAX]

@IMCRAZIER2THEMAX  oh and decepticons annoy me

[thundabolt16sta]

Evolution's stupid.

(hahaha lets see who's the dweeb that comments first on this)

[bmaseray]

@thundabolt16sta

hey im not a dweeb

[nerdfighteralvin]

i am Alvin.

EVERYONE'S NICKNAME FOR ME IS ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS

here's how every conversation when i am introducing myself goes:

me: hello , my name's Alvin.

person i don't know: like Alvin and the chipmunks?

or

person i do not know: where's Simon and Theodore?

me:...........................­.....................@#$% you.

[genger1223]

I'm Charlotte and Charlie. I don't get a name either way.

Each time I meet someone its Charlotte Church, Charlotte's Web or

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Charlie's Angels. And so many more. But never Charlie Chaplin. Never.

[sethwerewolf]

i have two brothers named caleb- and it gets knid of confusing

[sasumay101]

Me and like 40 people on my small highschool share the mame.that is Sarah... This I may point out also includes my step sister who's named Sarah... I have pretty much stoped responding to the name Sarah in exchange for Hobbit. A nickname unanamusly given by my frieds because of the Sarah epademic and because im short..

[19ladybug95]

punishment for hank= making him read said gigantic and uninteresting debate about evolution. ... i'm kinda late though...

[xaveir14]

You think there's a lot of Hanks?

TRY BEING SCOTT.

Scott Summers (Cyclops from X-Men). DICK.

Scott Tennormen from South Park. DICK

Scott "That's Scott, He's A Dick" From Canada from South Park. DICK

The only fictitious Scott that isn't a dick is Scott Pilgrim!!

OH! And guess what? When your nickname is "Scottie", guess what everyone sings? guess. just gue- SCOTTIE DOESN'T KNOW THAT FIONA AND ME DID IT IN HER CAR LAST SUNDAY!

*sarcastic laughter* IT'S SOOOOO FRIKKEN FUNNY! RAAGGHHH

[theEnlivenment]

Isn't your name technically WILLIAM? :))

[123456789robbie]

if one understand the idea of natural selection, then it would be obvious to one that it would happen, wthether god is real or not. the debate shouldn't be about wether evolution is real or not, it whould be about whether it was how man was put on earth. personally i am an advocate of evolution. and a question that i would love to have answered by a religous person, why did god create the earth in the first place?

[iWeezildude]

There are 9 people in my grade who are named Sam, and I am one of them.

[shiravil]

make him wear a bannana costume



[tmoney12346]

(insert boring and pointless argument regarding the theory of evolution here)

[MomSaysImCool]

@tmoney12346 I disagree!!!

[LifeMustard]

@tmoney12346 (insert boring and pointless counterargument regarding the theory of evolution here)

:)

[ConfettiJessie]

Cool hoodie.

[kikoblake1]

Note to self: Do not drink anything while watching a vlogbrothers video. Laughing + drinking = epic fail. :P

[FanfictionAffliction]

I couldn't find your twitter, I didn't know which one to follow, too many fake ones.

[AllieYourAlly]

@FanfictionAffliction Hank is @ Hankgreen! :)

[SemisonicNerdfighter]

John is nicer... sorry.

[4LiveLifeWithLove4]

Really, Hank? You think having the name Hank is bad? Try having the name Emily! And then try having six other Emily's in your school that are all more popular than you so everyday was like, "Hey, Emily!" "What?" "Not you, the other one!"

That and my name is used so much in movies and books and stuff...

[iemiline]

@4LiveLifeWithLove4 I AGREE!!!

[SSdetectiveagency]

is having the same name of a pornstar on House really a bad thing? lol

[ihatebirthdays]

hanksgiving LOL

[scoodles007]

It annoys me that I can't do the nerdfighters sign with my hands.

[ALoveLikeOurs0913]

This is a giant and uninteresting debate on evolution...

[Fashionweekeveryweek]

OKay I just checked out a book by Lauren Myracle.....Is it a pen name????

[LegitBenDustman]

I am vastly annoyed by people who use poor grammar to argue.

[akguitar94]

@LegitBenDustman lol u stoopeeyid

[meluvyahunHP]

In the UK, we all (mostly) just accept the theory of Evolution.. Honestly, the debate has basically died out over here and I still find it really weird to think that it hasn't in other places also.. .x.

[AlorenNS]

Vlog Brother* my iPod touch corrects my typing in the oddest ways sometimes.

[AlorenNS]

Yeah John gets this extra followers from non nerd fighters I bet! Your the only blog belter I have drawn and are my favorite to watch. Though I love you both.

[Rayne0804]

i follow both of you...and i only follow, like, nine people. <3

[Chitownreader]

I followed u on twitter before John!

[blackzabbathfan]

the reason john has more followers is (at least i think this is why) because he is a bestsellling author

[sugarpeepsez]

This makes me giggle.

[iliketoeatapplez]

I couldn't think of anything that annoyed me...but I love how most of the comments here are awesome. :D

[26Staples]

I was at the station today and some guy comes up to me and says- "come to this seminar, show the world that you know we did not come from scum covered monkeys" and I just raised an eyebrow, said "that is a gigantic and uninteresting debate." then I ripped up his fliar and walked away. I don't like people trying to minipulate me- or people who are wrong.

[elgostine]

@26Staples i would have responded in two ways 1 told him exactly why hes mistaken,.

and 2.. say 'as a scum covered monkey i take offense to that. '

[bakerclara22]

make john play the skittles game.

[vexbatch]

I am currently annoyed at my inability to find a sweatshirt similar to the one you are wearing on the interwebz. Should you not try selling them at dftba.com?

[crazylele1]

I can't decide if I want to join the uninteresting debate on eveolution... It's just whenever I get into one of those I end up finding it to be a waste of time because the opposition won't take my point of view into consideration and I won't budge on my views. Well crap... Feel free to respond to my part in the uninteresting debate on evolution. *sigh*

[Aeropop11]

less followers on twitter? well THAT shouldn't happen! *goes to follow*

[nizzlewhizzle]

Um, make him watch nyan cat for a very long time.

nyan.cat.com is the link so you can make him do that.

[nizzlewhizzle]

@nizzlewhizzle acualy its just nyan.cat

[TheZombieGirrrl]

Oddly enough, I find people being annoyed to be annoying. It's like this annoying annoyance death spiral.

[2chocolatecoins]

@TheZombieGirrrl I bet theres a graph 4 that somewhere.......

[ReKrisB]

Yay for complaining days :3 I think it's good to complain every once in a while. Can't always keep that bottled up.

[cheshireismycat]

You're called Hank and your name is William

William I will see you on Wednesday

[SlangForEyesores]

Wow, there are quite a few comments on here bashing atheists. Not that I'm offended seeing as we're lumped together pretty often, but that's not what you nerdfighters are about, right? Also, and this is just my two cent, it's fine if you believe in god, it's no issue, but evolution works fine without any kind of deity involved. Religions have had to revise their tenets over the years, science has simply pressed on.

[YOmamasugly]

@SlangForEyesores Like

[SlangForEyesores]

@YOmamasugly right, that was just an outburst, my bad. I got a little riled up from reading some stuff a couple pages back and jumped in. Didn't mean anything against the NFs though.

[YOmamasugly]

@SlangForEyesores Haha no worries im an agnostic anyways

[dyslexicxheart]

Insert uninteresting comment about evolution here

[SuperSara1992]

@dyslexicxheart Insert opposing views about evolution here. :P

[invaderripper]

ok  my friend played this prank on me and i think hank should do it to john......you have a gun full of blanks and (i cannot stress this enough) FROM A DISTANCE (but close enough he can see the pistol) shoot it! The reaction will be priceless!

[TVLover1995]

Hank the concierge doctor is cool! Check the show out, it's called Royal Pains. :)

[MrPneumonia]

one thing that annoys me is that sound that silverware makes when you rub it against a plate.

[TheNeiraaa]

Don't worry about the name thing. We all know your dirty, little secret William :D

[TheSugarRay]

Don't forget hank venture. "I like Henry."

Henry, I have a terrible time finding your twitter. :p

New nerd on old fighter video?

DFTBA!

[flyingsharkgirls]

Luckily there doesn't seem to be THAT big of an evolution debate going on, which, as I've said before, prooves the intelligence of Nerdfighteria.

[Vw3216]

HANK WATCHES HOUSE!!!!!!!

life=complete

[VGMaster17]

2:08

Really?

*checks comment section*

Okay, wow. Even when he directly mentioned it in the video. Hank, you're a psychic.

[Arostyle380]

punish him with whips and chains!

[algnome]

bake him some brownies but use chocolate flavored laxatives in stead of chocolate hank

[13cmwright99]

im not thankful for when m guitar string snaps when im playing it due to wear, which happens a lot more than it should because I don't have a job therefore i have no mone to buy strings

If it helps, Ha
