Tales Of Mere Existence "The Best Book Ever"

[vatiz93]

I usually triple dot (...) to get it going, then throw out a bounch of ideas on a piece of paper. It works out well in class, although I wish I had more time to write what I want and get to see if the grammar and spelling is correct.

[SmallCaz]

I'm doing the same about the Best Film Ever.

Hey.... if you end up writing the Best Book Ever I can just adapt it on camera. Then we can have some awesome photoshoots together and have our insanely famous actors suck up to us in the Making Of.

[thelittlerobotthatco]

I am going to write the best youtube comment ever.

[ArturoStojanoff]

I like when he handwrites and he puts those computer keyboard noises xDD it's

[Hendawg83091]

Just put everything you say in your videos into a book and that will be the best book ever.

[palkal77]

this and procrastination I believe just about completely sum up my life....

[rafelia034]

Lately i've been assigned with a lot of work which i couldn't get around to do, i found it impossible to concentrate. While i was supposed to be doing that work, i was on youtube and happened to stubble upon your videos, I don't know what it is but something in your monotonic voice really helps me concentrate and actually do the work! Plus i love your videos and can relate to most of them. So thank you!!!

[laithinator3000]

@rafelia034 I read your comment in monotone.

[TenshixXxAkuma]

@laithinator3000 ME TOO! @.@ Especially how Lev would sometimes start his sentences with "lately I've ..." I'm being Lev-ed up.

[CssFade]

If you really are going to right a book, right it about your life.

[RRainey20]

This is my life.

[tessthefirst]

I love it that you advertise your book after this scene as ....The Best Book Ever. You'll be a household name pretty soon there Lev. Um about your name... Might want a more catchy one. I don't even know how to pronounce your last name so ... The author of the best book ever has to have an easily spelled and pronounced name so we can hashtag it on Twitter (#Lev) and instagram easier. Don't alienate the younger generation now. I think that's Carl Hiassen's problem as well. Darned difficult last n

[16m49x3]

Lev if all your videos where magicaly made in to a book it whould be the best book ever

[goe5]

hahaha I am exactly the same way Lev. I've been writing since I was 15...now I'm 20.....trying get something out of my stories. Next week I'm gonna get an oppointment to talk to the Hollywood executives, if I can turn my ideas into a movie and get rich. I wanna meet you one day! Lev you're the best

[Nicokandel]

@goe5 good luck bro :) i hope you make it big!

[mlgp7223]

so... gonna re-write harry potter then? good luck with that....

[MadOldPete]

wow, to think, I used to comment on the videos of the guy who wrote the best book ever. wait, what?

[TheXxxprotogirlxxx]

he did write the best book ever ^-^

[snakedemon11]

you should take all of this that you created and make a book. I promise to buy it! but i think what you have here is already a hit, so.....

[KinXBinX]

Sounds like me when writing essays....

[ezodragon]

:L I did that too when I decided I was going to make webcomics... "Yeah, no matter how many comments, I'll still reply to questions... hmm, I wonder if I should open up donations too"

[Chronowizpal]

You could write a book titled "Tales of Mere Existence" that would be a best seller XD

[thephysicwerewolf]

@Chronowizpal he did, haven't you heard of the sunny side down?

[Akalack]

are you me from the future?

[FlurpzZ]

i couldn't help but notice that "to kill a mockingbird" wasn't in the list of life affirming culture changing books. just sayin.

[JavaSpitLava]

@FlurpzZ that book wasnt like that though.....

[scorpclaw]

You know, this happens to me quite a few times, except not with writing books.

[TheMrTangamandapio]

Wanna make a great book? Grab a mythological creature, that's inherently scary, and make it (gay) sweet and handsome. Also, make one of his/her weakness a twist so it's more "appealing" to the public. In other words, take something good, and write it like you're narrating for a 10 year old.

[6skate9]

couldnt relate to this one but i love ur vids

[Roflcopter4b]

Who else is drunk?

[inuyashalivesbaby]

I hate you. lol. This sounds just like me. You took all of my ideas...

[morikahjo]

:D I am an aspiring author. And EVERY TIME I sit down start a new story, it's always the same. TODAY I WILL WRITE THE BEST BOOK EVER. Yeah...the only story I've actually finished is about peanut butter sandwhiches...I guess it's not for EVERYONE...ut I know! I know that there are people out there who will read it and they will GET it instantly...

[TheSpleenmaster]

@morikahjo Cool story bro. ^u^

[YinYangBird21]

after about a marathon of your videos... the voice in my head now sounds like yours o.O

[MrBlihcatfacepwned]

your best book ever should be: Tales of Mere Existence

[rexnone]

Sunny Side Down is the best book ever.



[jk3wagner]

go to my thing how to write a book(jk3wagner)

[LY9999]

omg i thought i was the only person who thinks like that, thanks god I am normal hahah

[Blueninjaguy16]

the best book ever isnt defined by others

[AliceRenee19]

Just write about you. :3 I would read it.

[ThomasTrue]

Shades here of Linus in Peanuts wanting to be "A world famous humble little country doctor. " :D

Love your videos Lev. Highly entertaining. :)

[mrsethcorbin]

Sounds like Stephen Hawking is narrating this one...

[MeLaneyDay]

Maybe you should write a book about an orphan boy who finds out he's a wizard, and then he goes to a wizard school. BEST BOOK EVER!

Just kidding Lev.

[JMnDC4eva]

0:30 Metallica!! :D

[RAFarrobaS]

53 people dont know how to read.

[lolipop86724]

I have an ad for weight loss, you know, one of those before and after ones. Except Miss Before and Miss After have different colored eyes. Stupid advertizers. Don't they know what photoshop is?

[120551DS0u2a]

Are you the author of "Sunny side down"? Dude that book is the best book ever!

[MrJackAttack2010]

53 people never read the best book ever.

[aaronmyers1982]

The greatest irony is that in talking about life in general and how he was planning on writing the best book ever he mistakenly wrote the best book ever even though it wasnt intended to be the best book ever

[TheGentlemanCreeper]

This is probably the only episode where you are so optimistic.

[qazwsxedc562]

just right down tells of mere existence trust me it will be the best book ever

[MrMilitaryson]

Im in designing of the best commit ever! Coming soon

[LilKempy]

I think I wrote it already. Yes, I wrote it.

[EvangeMani]

^_^ I already wrote the best book ever.

[thelostpiranha]

did you make all those typewriter noises yourself? haha. you're the best!

[imaginelexi85]

Sunny Side Down

[TheMattC13]

I had this idea too.

[DanOlooney]

lets make a tranzaction maaaannnnnn

[JCReiki]

I love how every one of your videos has a different sound to the audio. And how it really doesn't matter after the first ten seconds...

[spencegame]

just take all of your Tales of Mere Existence drawings, put the words to the pictures, and put em all in a book.

[InvaderRek]

I like how the only people stopping him for an autograph were hot chicks.

[SugarPuff0101]

@bluehawk120 you know what?? you're right!! :O

[leavetome]

@AgentXPQ make a Biography, it would sell. A ton.

[EXTREMRAPIST]

The best book ever would be all of these storys

[FatGuyWithAKatana]

it's already been written, it's called the bible... HAHAHA try typing that with a straight face.

[skydark]

@FatGuyWithAKatana I can't...my noise keeps sticking out.

[DNDerek]

This is how I do my essays.

[bluehawk120]

all these tales remind me of "diary of a wimpy kid" but hey its just me haha

[14sickboy]

hey you should do one abut wen you got your first car :)

[Catcherintherye11111]

catcher in the rye? more like fatty eating pie!

[SecretfulWolf]

@AgentXPQ please write a book! Books about life are very popular.

Please!

[TeLeevisie]

I'm pretty sure he writes it normally for his view, and then mirrors it digitally, which makes it easily readable for us, although it does make him look left-handed.

[legendnemesis]

are you left handed?

[amerikanits]

Lev, do you draw everything backwards? I just noticed your hand in the background.

[aloula97]

You don't really think girls like 1:05 are gonna read books like Gone with the wind or Catcher in the rye, do you?

[SomeSunshineOutside]

Daydreaming at its... most usual stage.

[jeremytay273]

Writer Guy Looks just like Brad Pit. =P

[Three6CloghessyA]

Sunny side down is the best book ever :)

[FerociousSniper]

oh my god... you can write backwards. are you some kind of wizard? seriously your pretty good at that stuff man

[ScythePuppet]

This character is extremely likable. I just saw your "procrastination" video and I hate how all your videos are only about a minute long. They're like bite-sized videos. I can't stop watching >.<

[timwoodbela]

October the first ha-ha that´s my birthday :)

[Auggieautomne]

Oh what a great paradox... if only we didn't know "Best Book Ever"s existed, then we could truly write it.

Can you imagine this: Telling your interviewer (interviewing you about the best book ever) that you already had this conversation with them in your head years ago?

[daso131393]

Feel the fucking same.. Why can't I write it!? I know it's going to be a good book I just know it!

[WhoaThereMama]

@daso131393 nanowrimo. org . just saying.

[Playver1337]

Lol His voice is really fuckin relaxing. Fucking amazing guy.

Love this shit :D

[MrNinjaKiwi13]

How about BEST YOUTUBE VIDEOS EVER.

[nicolate4479]

I've tried to make a remake of shudder island. it ended with my friend nate getting his penis stuck in a barbed wire fence...

[roberto7114]

i love that twist ending XD

[sparkytrick]

He already wrote sunnyside down.

[ThatEccentricguy]

i can totally relate to this

[scacciata]

Fantastic! Thanks for the chuckles.

[lfcladeira]

I am going to post the best comment ever about this video, and I am going to recheck this video every now and then to see if people grasp the essence of my insight and honorably give me the 'thumbs up'. And even if I didn't make much of an effort to come up with the content, I am going to brag about it, because for some reason, I really did come up with something that was approved by people who read and evaluate comments made about videos.

[FlashLoon]

@lfcladeira ha ha nice! inspired!

[XxSuRrEaLiStSxX]

@lfcladeira Which is actually everything you've just done, is it ironic that your satire has become your reality?

[lfcladeira]

@XxSuRrEaLiStSxX come on, are you serious? you can't tell the difference between a satire and a homage?

[XxSuRrEaLiStSxX]

@lfcladeira It can be difficult to tell on the internet for there are no speech specific fonts.

[HEHEHEHEHE65]

@lfcladeira hipsters these days..

[triteon05]

God I would love like to buy your book!

[LilArezProductions]

turn this video series into a book. id buy it

[gregorybrandt]

remember my name. Because I am writing the best book ever. -greg

[misssfg]

im stuck at 1:02 shet :((

[Radien]

Woot! I'll be eagerly looking forward to The Best Book Ever. Let us know when it comes out!

[operaghost12SR]

LOL luved it! im writing a book about a vampire (who isnt these days)

[adtweetit]

how come you can relate with everyone of us here :D?

[ImEuanAndIGotsSkeelz]

well for what its worth if you wrote a book i would probably read it.

[patsyrosie]

wow how do you do these?

[overpwnageuber]

@patsyrosie he probably uses a sharpie pen, a glass table, thin paper that looks like that, and a camera. not too hard to decipher hey?

[GxWAPxO]

@patsyrosie He's pretty smart.. If you're talking about how he's doing the drawings and such well.. it probably goes something like this.

Materials: Tissue Paper (the kind you crumple up for gift bags), Glass table, Video Camera, Video editing software.

1. On the glass table lay one sheet of tissue paper.

2. Place video camera under table with the lens pointing up on the bottom of the glass table.

3. Draw images and such.

4. Edit the video with software, that allows you to mirror the playback.

[6thhokagephil]

I know where this guy is coming from. Having so much ambition about a project that you think ahead too far without thinking things through. I do that with the games I make all the time XD

[TreyColwell]

Isn't For Whom the Bell Tolls a Metallica song?

[Natasa0112]

@TreyColwell Not sure about Metallica, but I think that is a book by Hemingway? About spanish revolution or something.

[The4L3Xm]

@TreyColwell yes, yes it is. BUT its also a book.

[kizzy75]

Lol I've done stuff like this...

[BeetlePunk]

Oh god i litheraly saw myself in the mirror when i was writing my own book o_o the whole life flashed before my eyes. Oh god! God why! LEV how could you broke my perfect illusion! LEV!! LEEEV!

[tkdkid155]

about: what would penis do

[MJafro]

Best video ever :)

[somekid557]

pore audeo

[WTFtheyKilledKenny]

@somekid557

It is from 4 years ago.

[somekid557]

@WTFtheyKilledKenny no its actually not

[LoveTuesdays]

0:40 - 1:00 That is so me, like all the time. I get a big idea, figure I'm going to be famous for it, so I leave all these little things for people to talk about in the future about it to make me significantly more famous and interesting.

"Oh yes, I remember her facebook post about jumping off of something. Who knew she meant from the neck of Godzilla?"

[cronon94]

just write down everything youve said in all your videos

[VmanPopz]

@cronon94 That would be the best movie...

[kulkille100]

@VmanPopz Well, no it wouldn't, since he'd _write_ it down.

[jkcheese]

@cronon94 Agreed!

[EvangeMani]

@cronon94 do it....do it!

[44kike44]

i just can't stop watching your videos for some reason @_@

[sesaruoosama]

@44kike44 me either

[weakattheknees91]

Please publish a book containing all of these tales—with or without illustrations.

You already have a name for it.

[ZouseKouseki]

@weakattheknees91 dude exactly what i was thinking

[abanders99]

Um...good luck with that :o

[zenclaw13]

OK. I'm done watching. I swear....but the next one is just going to start so it would be a waste not to see it...you never know...

[musicalsubgenre]

I tried to write a book but it gets too boring. I'd feel better writing a bunch of short stories but they're never good because they're too long and don't make sense. I guess i just won't write a book.

[CharityxKilo]

@musicalsubgenre basically writing a book is like writing a short story, only a lot longer. If they don't make sense, try making a poem out of it since poems don't make much sense anyways. As for writing a short story to a book, just imagine this, you have a terminal disease and you're going to die in ten weeks. Write the living crap out of yourself until you get it published before you die

[iloveoreos15]

@CharityxKilo You just inspired me. lol

[PatricktheDoody]

@jokerman004 it's a typo relax

[falloutkid00]

you already wrote the best book ever its called "tales of mere existence" its on you tube under the channel name AgnetXPQ

[jokerman004]

@falloutkid00 actually its AgentXPQ

[soadratmetc]

@falloutkid00 Who is this "AgnetXPQ"?

[leavetome]

@falloutkid00 agnet...?

[Kurtis667]

you remind me A LOT of brian griffen from family guy.

[MusicLuvah23]

@Kurtis667 EXACTLY!!

[moogemum]

Lol your brilliant, please never stop with these, like ever.. x

[masterx401]

the pause before Chapter :1 craked me up ........ lol

[8938butterfly]

Does your hair really look like that?

[STevEKlm012]

@8938butterfly Watch 4 Things Lev Can Do. You can see his hair.

[YumiAwesomeCrayon]

That's EXACTLY what I do! But not the whole ego part.

[JohnLeaf64]

This is the best youtube video ever.

[SolomonBliss]

Actually, I think I'll wright an epic trilogy with love, passion, hate, revenge, violence, philosophy, history, comedy, action, technology, mythology, tragedy, religion, culture, psychology, romance, adventure, fantasy, horror, martial arts, science, supernatural, mystery, music, and sex.

It shall be a coming of age tale with multiple stories following a dozen characters which eventually collides into one epic showdown between good and evil with just the right amount of neutrality.

[YumiAwesomeCrayon]

@SolomonBliss Doesn't seem so hard at all! *cough cough*

[Ylberi1]

you are amazing man 

[PilleJ0ns]

I love your handwriting!

[charlandlen]

I've been planning the best booke ver myself xD

[weetoniess]

what your doing is put it into a book :3

[PandaWhing]

>.> I've done the same thing, right down to the calling of the friends. sigh.

[Robocrat]

Lol I think like this all the time.

[SurferRosa79]

No wonder this guy procastinates, he sets goals which are too far-fetched.

[ninjacat123]

funny ending

[FixerNK]

hahaha LOve the ending amazing

[MrMurderman666]

@FixerNK Wow man your really loved by like thousands of people, you should really write a book and I bet it actually will be the best book ever, I would buy it and unlike many books I have I would actually read it.

[AngelTFC]

HAHA. That's funny

[mah1013]

check out my slowly growing online used book store. small right now but more books are coming soon mikesbooks.ecrater.com

[Mrb1b2b3b4]

[Morahman7vnNo2]

Get a typewriter Mister Yilmaz.

[cheetocairo]

I've had this same exact scenario play out; LOL; I am still working on The Best Book Ever; have been for years...

[cheetocairo]

I've had this same exact scenario play out; LOL; I am still working on The Best Book Ever; have been for years...

[Maurilha666]

You write a great book...

OR you don't have to write the best book ever, you have to convince people that is the best book ever

[29Hazard]

...

Напишу-ка я песню о любви,

Только что-то струна порвалась

И сломалось перо, ты прости.

Может в следующий раз?

А теперь пора спать.

[29Hazard]

А не спеть ли мне песню о любви? А не выдумать ли новый жанр? Попопсовей мотив и стихи И всю жизнь получать гонорар. Мою песню услышат тысячи глаз, Моё фото раскупят сотни рук. Моё солнце мне скажет: "Это про нас." Посмеётся над текстом лучший друг. И я стану сверхновой суперзвездой - Много денег, машина, все дела. Улыбнувшись ты скажешь: "Как крутой!" Я тебя обниму: "Ты права." ...

[internecinefine]

Truly amazing videos. Keep it up. And even more so because you included "A Tree Grows In Brooklyn" in this list. What an EPIC book. Frannie Nolan is a goddess.

[mudshark69]

@internecinefine i will read this book, since he included the catcher.
