What Could You Do with a Poe Bust?!

[thewolffromhell66666]

I LOVE FREAKING EDGAR ALLEN POE

[magicgirl192]

Poe voice= Win

[BroadwayAllstar]

That poe bust is in the same colors as the fault in our stars cover

[iwantsumfries]

i bet you made this video to make the edgar allen pwned joke

[TheEpicmoons]

PEANUT BUTTER FACE THE POE BUST !

[LauraaMarieC]

Nevermore is my cat's name, and she responded when you put him on your shoulder!

[Piiiglett]

'You just got Edgar Allen PWNED!'



[hollabooiers]

New people who weren't around when the whole "what could you do with a [insert desired object here]" insanity started, not only should you go see Tyler's original one, you should definitely look up Charlie's wii mote as well. :)

[EpicSuccuss]

0:27 lol

[lolgirl607]

Completely off topic, but I find myself rewatching vlogbrothers videos in alternating phases....first it's a marathon of John videos and then Hank videos and etc. etc. until my homework is procrastinated to the point of possible incompletion.

[stargleekwhofighter]

I know have motivation to write a mystery novel. Now, to think of a mystery . . .

[Thelizzardcat]

At the end you can see Johns shoulder in the corner. FAKE

[kentclarkocoumiroku2]

I'm sure those people on the Edgar award committee have bitterly regretted their decision ever since

[CakeBeneathTheIcing]

I am definitely using "you just got edgar allen pwned" in real life now. Thank you John.

[Facepalmguy]

He definitely thought way too much to come up with the "Edgar Allen Pwned" line :P

[WorldClassTimeWaster]

Nice Australian accent, John... you sound like my gran, we're English :D

[AlyReality]

we've got a Poe bobble head atop the smartboard in my adv. liturature class

[TheTaeKwonDoJo]

That is one cool bust Mr. Green... and now I want one.

[alexislopez91]

Does anyone else's video play really shakey?

[pbjellybeanful]

is your wife a yeti?

[PassTheMarmalade1957]

I really want to start saying, "You just got Edgar Allan PWNED!", but I know I will sound nowhere near as deliciously nerd-cool as John does saying it....People will just look at me funny.

[Ignelux]

@PassTheMarmalade1957 Hey, at least you're not the one instinctively telling people that they've been 'Mercutiowned' after reading Romeo and Juliet XD

[RandomPonyProduction]

Drops it on the ground (breaks) SHIT!

[PurpleCahw]

And now I will prance about my house, singing "WHAT COULD YOU DO WITH A POE BUST?"

[ChelsieOliviaa]

Whatever it is I can do with a Poe bust,

I would not do for a Klondike bar.

[natst251]

Now I need to get myself a Poe Bust so I can do these things.

[SteveVader101]

@natst251 Just write a mystery novel on a similar level to that of paper towns.

[CoolPplEatDoughnuts]

Yeah, so I totally didn't start thinking of nerimon's 'what could you do with an amy pond' (and yes, I realise it was inspired by this) skit in a video he did a while back... :)

[123456789robbie]

"edgar allen pwned" my new favorite phrase

[fluffandstuf]

you could accedentily break it and feel bad

[MsWasteland101]

I got a poe bust from a local yard sale. I may have posted a status that involved "What could you do with a poe bust?"

[funnypets456]

You look fat, john.

[TheHaasa]

I find myself chanting this occasionally at inopportune moments.

Oh, Greens, what hast thou done to us?!

[completeidiot19]

Now when people are pwned, I say "You just got Edgar Alllen Pwned!"

[LostInside1315]

That awkward moment when you realize that it was around this time that Henry was conceived o.O

[TheGfields]

"You just got Edger Allen Poend!"

Lol

[MissMeggie2804]

The garden gnome made me laugh so hard I died a little bit...

[guaraninequarantine]

Why does he kiss Edgar Allen Poe? That is my question.

[LKBM]

It RAISES the question. Begging the question is circular reasoning.

[1zalex1]

This has to be the most famous Edgar Award ever.

[shewhotalksalot]

I'll bet the people who gave John that award are rethinking this.

[nerdfighteralvin]

the video was loading, and it paused on the part of the what can you do with a poe bust song where you kiss the poe bust

.

.

.

.

.

that image has burned into my mind.

[TheProjectWeird]

Can you come to Australia again? Say.... December?

Please?

[thesunsgonewibbly]

Title: INTERROBANGED!

[alexis474542]

He looked the wrong way when he mentioned the sidebar xD

[alysrose161]

Fairly amusing tidbit, my family name on my mother's side is Wimp (no, I'm not joking) and I had a great great uncle named Edgar Alan Wimp. Doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

[BlackPlaydoh]

What could your FACE do with a Poe bust?!

[tinabeaner004]

@ifeellikerunning I love you for that

[ifeellikerunning]

poebuscus

[IDontLoveJessica]

John's songs are so much better than Hank's. Sorry Hank, just saying.

[3HeartsWereBreaking]

People are really confused when, in a situation that calls for a "pwned", I say

"Edgar-Allen PWNED!"

[TheWarnerSister]

That high-pitched voice at the end was the funniest thing I've heard today. XD

[TookItHomeToJenny]

You didn't put him in your pants!!! "Poe in my pants!" has such a nice ring to it!

[dyslexicxheart]

at least it's not a pallid bust of Pallas...

[littleskt8r]

i think i want "what could you do with a poe bust" to be my ringtone. this is amazing <3

[RosieFae]

You know the people who gave him the award totally watched this video and face palmed :p

[moodylupin]

I just randomly burst out a "What Could You Do with a Poe Bust" ... then, I ended up here.

[funsizedclaire]

love that shirt

[McWillie111]

im gonna have a stroke from to many jump cuts

[SmartyPajamaPants]

It's nice to know he takes such good care of his awards

[Kirby64401]

I'm a fan of the term Al Capwned

[trainwreckenthusiast]

John it is my duty as a nerdfighter to inform you, as you asked me to, that you a little fat in this video. I'm sorry. I know it was awhile ago. But just take a moment now, and look at yourself, and then look at yourself in the video, and if they are similar, well then maybe you gotta work a little harder.

[ViCaLiCiOuS0414]

Nice Shirt :p

[Lauraa4023]

"YOU JUST GOT EDGAR ALLAN PWNED!" epic line!

[theateradic]

We were reading Annabel Lee in ELA today and I kept thinking of this video.

[bubblewandd]

Press six hahaha

[Bankai1484]

I believe the Raven symbolizes humanities ability to look back and analyze past events even if they are hard to look through or you dont want to and draw from it posibilities as to what could have happened better and how you can move on from there on

[emilycaroline9]

He just loves kissing that Poe Bust.

[imamadmad1]

now, if i had a tardis, i could go back in time by 2 years 1 month and go to that sydney thing. please organise another sydney event soon

[spidermanandsnape]

I love Nerdfigheria

[booknerd12345511]

Quoth the raven nevermore

[BlobOfChaos]

Is it just me or does Johns puff level go down throughout this video?

[pugluvingurrrl]

That's some nice puff..." Yes, it is nice puff.

[EmoYaoiFangirl]

Poe... what does the raven sybolize? *silence...*

[EmmyBea]

You used the phrase "begging the question" wrong. I am very disappointed in you. I thought you were a grammatical hero.

[TheAnonymousViewer]

@EmmyBea Language evolves, and realistically speaking, no one uses the real "begs the question".

[wingsonwater]

@TheAnonymousViewer I have to remind myself of that every time I hear someone use it "wrong." Linguistically, the phrase's meaning has shifted.

[hannah4colbert]

The water boarding bit gets me every time. hahaha.

[Medafets]

I was there, In Melbourne; best mourning of my life. 

[fournya]

is every room in your house a different shade of green?

[commentias]

@fournya what do you expect? This is JOHN GREEN'S house.

[bookworm2445]

at a field trip in a museum, me and my friend saw a bust of poe. we're both nerdfighters so we both looked at each other a said "What could you do with a poe bust?!" following that *awkward silence*

[Rihannaiskool1]

I loved paper towns btw I started it yesterday and finished today awesome book deserves the award :)

[eminem4infinity]

0:29 ... god that scared me :L

[MicukoFelton]

@eminem4infinity

Ahahha, me too. xD

[QueenOfTheAubergines]

Why you no toast Poe no more Poe Toaster?!

[terrastar12]

The ad for this video is "The Edgar Allen Poe Conspiracy".

REALLY?!

[BreukelensFinest]

love this video!!!! absolute fav

[KINDspotting]

Edgar Allen POE wrote POEtry, was a POEt, enjoyed emotional POEms, ate POEtatoes at least once in his life, and was awesome.

PS Why you toast Poe no more, Poe Toaster?

[CordyBear1]

When you were playing Wii with it, I totally thought you were gonna whack the bust and break it.

[uglyfudge]

@CordyBear1 Yeah, me too!

[Gvf77x]

Now I know where Alex got "What can you do with an Amy" o.O

[Hailtotheduck]

COME BACK TO MELBOURNE. I DISCOVERED NERDFIGHTARIA TWO WEEKS AFTER YOU WENT TO THE STATE LIBRARY.

[MeLaneyDay]

What could you do with a Poe bust? Ugg stuck in my head! It's so catchy!

[raggamuffins13]

Today I used 'Edgar Alan PWND' in a conversation. Nobody got it....

[williusethis]

hey nerdfighters, i've been trying to find the video where french the llama was born, can some one direct me to it?

Thanks, DFTBA.

[xxirlandssamuraixx]

The raven Represents the unkowning of what to do since his wifes death and his thoughts of suicide 

[Elleyphant]

THE IS THE BEST VIDEO EVER.

[Hermy357]

Edgar Allen Poe, you have a funny voice.

[jellybeangravy]

I do love you John :D

[legionxxx98]

nevermore



[kiwifruit138]

You know of the infamous tyler oakley!? A bagillion cool points you earn my good friend. :D

[godspellgirl]

What You Could Do with a Poe Burst, in Your Pants

[wolfgirlrachie]

what coul you do with a poe bust is a very weird thing to have stuck in your head start singing it out lord and its garantied every one will look at you like you've lost the plot

its amazing ;)

[Inueyes6667]

You suck!!!

you were at kinokuniya and i never knew...

NOOOOOO~!!!!!!!

[abrainyoreo]

Mr. Green, I did not know you approved of waterboarding one's own posessions.

God, I love nerdfighteria

[OriginalBitt]

WHAT COULD YOU DO WITH A POE BUST?!

[iamemilyrosex]

Edgar Allen Pwned... taking a nerdy internet term and making it even NERDIER? Win!

[SirTeeGeeEss]

That was hilarious.

[happyfuntigger]

recently in school we had to read poe's "the Raven" story. now i get the whole "nevermore" thing. poor lanore. :l

[megahappypinkskitty]

this is the first vlogbrothers video I ever watched

also "YOU JUST GOT EDGAR ALLAN PWNED" made of win

[WaterLily331]

"You can use a Poe bust as fitness equipment!"

Yeah, right, like John needs fitness equipment... Just kidding!!! John, you're not fat, you're just a fluffier teddy bear than others! (The fluffy ones are the best!)

[eiiaiouju]

Jack Bauer has nothing on John Green. :P

[Jessmo198]

Love the way you abuse your awards xD

[JustHereForComedy]

LOL I can't believe you actually did all of that with a Poe bust. XD

[TrineG92]

Dear Mr. Poe: I believe you were pointing in the wrong direction while talking about the sidebar which is actually quite typical for John Green.

[ktm5194]

what could ya do with a ballsack?

[Lexpelliarmus]

"You just got Edgar Allan PWNED!"

Win.:)

[20flowerchild09]

i know why a raven is like a writing desk!! i really can't take full credit on this, as my friend came up with it, but it's because that Edgar Allen Poe wrote on both on them :D

[PsychicSchnoper]

@20flowerchild09 it's also because they both produce notes- all very flat

credit to Lewis Carrol

[animexoaccessory]

Hahaha I love how you sneaked The Raven in there..

YOU JUST EDGAR ALLAN PWNED!

lololol.

[Leesie44]

I finished "Paper Towns" like 2 weeks ago and on the back it says the winner of the Edgar award. Every time I saw that "what could you do with a Poe bust" rang through my ears.  And now it is again. THANKS JOHN! haha

[BHLani]

This is one of my absolute favorite Vlogbrothers videos.

[jayempee123]

Oh! You just got Edgar Allen Poe-ned!!!

[vamped66]

You most definately have not forgotton to be awesome

[XxxJackTheSlayerxxX]

now i need to figure out what i could do with a poe bust once i get my book published, and hopefully win a bust of one of my all time favorite writers

[Mrules123]

YOU MAKE ME SMILE jOHN; YOU MAKE ME SMILE!

sorry if i did not use the semi colon correctly!

DFTBA

<3 Mish mish

[TraniXz]

0:15 <3 SPAM IT. I KNOW YOU WANT TO.

[starxdust925]

I LOVE YOUR SHIRT

[Ziyavalo]

God, I was literally crying at the time Edgar was waterboarded. It was so freakin' hilarious. : D

[chipiy172]

dude this video is F ing awesome

[TwilightWater4]

GARDEN GNOME!

[superhotpink17]

lol! ''now your gunna tlalk!''

[0lelouchlamperouge0]

I love this. :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DD

[beangirl1389]

I've seen this video tons of times, but I just realized that the Poe bust looked the wrong way for the sidebar.

[bufar]

Only you would waterboard a bust of Edgar Allen Poe.

[GottaloveNicole]

You torture your poe Busts?

[LadyJuse]

@GottaloveNicole the world needs to know what the raven symbolizes

[windpotato]

awesome shirt

edgar allen PWNED

[NeonCatterpillar]

I suddenly thought of this, and I ran to the computer just to watch this. Wow, I'm cool.

[mutantsarepeopletoo]

thats funny

[theridgefield]

hes my great great great great grandfather thank u very much

[ChelseyXMican]

haha this is funny as hell!

XD

=)

[ams3188]

oh sweet Jesus, Edgar Allen Pwned for the WIN

[hotpinkelephant11]

The Olsen twin thing made me laugh long and loud.

[triplequeen]

You pointed the wrong way at the end of the video, Edgar!

[eragonlover1]

"Edgar Alan PWNED." I am definitely using that just to bother my sister with my nerdiness.

[snorlax42]

Why did you make his voice English? Wasn't he southern?

[Ponylver4eva]

this is gold

[GrayceeMaycee]

EDGAR ALLEN PWNED! I will try my hardest to use that phrase now in everyday conversation.

[4ndiland]

poe bust: put a wig and a diadem on it.

[theonetheonlythesam]

I'm such a nerd that I got that within the first nanosecond of seeing that comment!

[mrgermans]

The Edgar Allen Poe award is considered a great honor as well as The Ned Kelly Award.

[disneychick3]

where can i get that nerdfighter shirt?!? 0:53

[enemysenemy]

I can't believe you were at kinokuniya in june! that's around the time when i started watching your vlogs and was watching all videos from the beginning of vlogbrothers: |

[acrosstheu]

It seems the Poe Bust has no sense of direction....1:32...

[Ponylver4eva]

ha ha ;D

[betrion7]

zefrank would be sick to see this shameless copy of stile :D

haha, man, you should really find your own expression!

[XBasketCase1039X]

I am incredibly disappointed that my english class just finished our Poe studies, because I fear I will never again have a more appropriate opportunity to shout, "EDGAR ALLAN PWNED".

[2commentonly]

you should sell autobots t-shirts that are exactly like that one.

[TacTeppo]

MASSIVE PUFF!

[SnickersInTheBarn]

Edgar Allan PWN'D!

[megahappypinkskitty]

today at school we studied poems and the teacher had a ton of books full of poems out and I grabed one full of poems and or things that are poem-ish and now this video makes a lot more since

[BANGtheDoleDrums]

Edgar Allan PWNED

HAHA!!! So awesome.

[cha5]

LOL I know there's several SF authors who've won Hugo awards (which are quite a bit larger than Poe busts)

and at least a couple of them mention using their awards for a doorstop and other such practical uses.

[KatieGreat7]

Edgar Allan Poe doesn't know where the side bar is either....

[megahappypinkskitty]

I love your t-shirts

[youloser432]

lol. i love the water boarding one.

[wikorhero]

Maybe I'm off base, but I'm confused why you would give him an English accent. Poe was born in Boston, and spent most of his life in Virgina...so wouldn't he have a southern accent? Or a northeastern?

[megahappypinkskitty]

@wikorhero yea but the bust might not be from there so it could have a English accent

[wikorhero]

Touche. Good point.

[iTheDuck]

.__.

Give me your Autobots tee shirt.

[chocolattewizard]

My wife is a yeti?

[megahappypinkskitty]

lol cant stop laughing.......all your falt

[fishsticx]

WHAT COULD YOU DO WITH A POE BUST

[childoftheking568]

OMG I love his shirt. :D

[MrGameposter]

I would have laughed. My. ASS. OFF if you broke it playing Wii XD
