How to Tell a Story

[Some1UDoNotKno]

How does one obtain verbal intelligence comparable to this?

[kwinkatopolis]

Have you seen Spricket's nudes? I was all, "Gawd dayyum!"

[iicpn]

Cool Story Bro

[TheBelldiver]

That was a good story. Funny but true I'm sure.

[Stupideos]

STOP MIND FUCKING MY BRAIN!!!!

[denizezgigizem]

you look like an animal

[WildBassfly]

who the fuck is House?

[ukadam2023]

He Talks Like House MD

[mysourday]

This was awesome! Very fine skill, indeed.

[saviente]

You must make more story telling episodes! This is 5 Stars

[YeahSunshine]

Ohhhhh my balls. Ahahahahahahahahahah.

[SirFeralMan]

pussy braille haha

[ProtagonistNonTheist]

Best Youtuber ever.

[JohnPtrum]

Well told.

[lokalllize]

you look cool

[montpelier42d]

What a dick-head.

[theboombody]

I really hate Spricket24. I can't watch any of her videos for more than 30 seconds.

[SerenaTaliEllis]

"One Nation Under Google"  Epic...

[NeekTheNook]

Hey jeff, i really miss this stuff. its a shame that there is not more of them :)

[asf4321]

[Jaqshit]

wtf

[MagnesiumMichael]

you remind me of hugh laurie

[bhavvv]

Facewash from high street stores dont work on acne.

Antibiotic lotions and pills from your doctor will.

[Autumnrage]

You suck dick and you look like a junkie!

[FromTheBXToTheNP]

i wish he was my english teacher

[GORDOSRULE]

3:44 -3:50 a quote for the ages...

[supergirlanna]

FANTASTIC! I agree with janx218, i mean about using your video as inspiration and as a form of direction for story telling. You are awesome at it! 

[Magnetohydrodynamics]

Cat urine. Lol. xDDDD

[rachauck]

Well that certainly made a change! I think I like it. Especially the double ending. I'm currently doing some work around the threat of anti-climax in storytelling, and I'll certainly be incorporating the learning I've gained from this instructive performance into my forthcoming material.

[frauleinannika]

Best. Video. Ever.

[signlaw]

Hysterically funny, and much more succinct than the miserable Speech 1A college course I suffered through, with that mean and nasty "professor" with his monotone lectures - include with that the dozens of "speeches" sweatily, nervously delivered by us "beer-guzzling scholars of a sort" (the professor's quote, not mine). Hey, do I get my three credits, now? Oh, I bet I have to experience ALL of your videos, first.

[llethaface1]

why the fuck cant you stay in one position.

[vietdumbass]

I wish I can tell stories like you do.

[MichaelHasNoFriends]

"Surly my trusty internets would bestow upon me the mystical alchemy of truth" e Lmfao. Maybe the best line ever!bahahaha.

[papatzis987]

[earthsphere]

Great content. Engaging, entertaining, funny and well done. Thank you, DD

[bboydee]

This is so great! I hope to someday speak as gooder as you! :)

[hexcaster]

You sir, win the internets.

[dmkramerica]

Brilliant

[unkuehl]

Your allegories are vivid and colorful like Sgt. Pepper on speed. Wait...

No, I can't pull it off, so I'll steal your's. Mmmm...kay?

[chicoi08]

you do look like phil de franco...

[Rico8458]

what is that hook in the nose?

[pdark007]

why aren't your videos watched more? 5 stars man

[mellowtribe]

Just S.S. and S and go on.

[thebird000]

Don't take it personal. Its my opinion and it has not changed. Its crap. Other might think its brilliant.

[paponsalta]

Ok, it´s ok. Brillant. Happy?

[Sh0nin]

Interesting opinion, are you capable of articulating it into more than a non intelligible statement?

[paponsalta]

My god! Why? Are you so full of anger?

[thebird000]

How did the guy get 32,247 views. He's crap

[paponsalta]

Is an original slice of life. But you are so full of hate that maybe your parents violated you. I am so sorry

[Plautus123]

His had is full of shit.

[MsiJoe2]

THIS IS SPARTTTTAAA!

[thesparitan]

no THIS IS YOUTUBEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

[gregorybrandt]

Hey. I know how to tell a story. I am good. I am very good. Tell me I am not.

[mindcux]

im a 16 year old guy and have pimples all over my face, this makes me feel so much better haha

[Johothebozo]

Hairy man. I allready did kill myself.

[Johothebozo]

Tip: Start with a subtle introducing of the punch line, scout the subtle ripple of interest, then add the exclamationpoint. Other than this, all modern post rock stories write themselves. Only now not in blood.

[AvgGuyIA]

Because you have a horse shoe jammed in your nose, everything you said sounded like the grown-ups in a Peanuts cartoon.

[Azumarilli]

so... how to tell a story:?

[11tvirgin]

hahah dude this is so funny, u should totally be the next sarcastic Dr.House!!!!

[DenvrDave]

Wow! Excellent video...5 stars! You are the Jack Kerouac of Youtube, and I mean that as one of the highest complements one could be bestow on a storyteller-comedian-poet. Thanks.

[JusticePunkz]

He looks like Leonidas and talks like House.

[ihopeyouredone]

@JusticePunkz That's a pretty cool combo!

[card969]

@JusticePunkz Actually he kinda looks like house if he was slaped by a bag of metal dodads.

[Ejwoods08]

Wow that story was craaaaazy. If only I had such a talent for speaking as you do.

[fair7deal]

next time, try shit

[subatomicxua808]

that was a fucked up time. why! why!. i tried everything. salycilic acid was the only thing that worked .

[Felorah]

Oh my god, I did toothpaste one time and it HURT LIKE A THOUSAND FIERY SUNS on my face. j___j

[prodigy00073]

[caracre]

[d3nv3rbronco3030]

[ghostofdayinperson]

I dig the beard.

[PsychoticCat723]

Yeah the beard is good.

[Shade88angel]

You sir, are a linguistic genius!

[SaturatedLife1]

This video did it for me. I'm your new sub! No benefits other than the usual watch, rate, comment, repeat. I'm sure you appreciate it. *jk jk*

[jackwregan]

"Guess you had to be there..." Very funny stuff!

[GenusHumanusAlli]

[cnycarnut]

i must say that your choice of material provocative as it may be is presented in a very thought out and intellegent manner...aw who am i kidding its fuckin hillarious keep it up

[DDRslave]

[waterlily716]

Hee hee. I just subscribed. I've tried toothpaste too, and your face does smell nice and minty afterwards.

[jakobk78]

I really enjoy how you tell a story.

[starbucksandollars]

LOL!

[apolitikmusic]

"in the land of the blind, the desperate man is blinder"... brilliant.

[Krabbypattycake]

LMFAO!! You, Spricket and her friends have THE best sense of humor and you sound so intellectual. I love the way you speak.

[bunkyboy]

Hilarious.

[artistorwitch]

I have to say I love your ability to tell stories. I've been watching your videos since a friend of mine recommended them and I absolutely love them. You're sense of humor and your choice of vocabulary in particular (not always being too verbose but not afraid to throw the occasional 'big' word in there) really draws me in. Tea Time is also wonderfully done! In short: love watching your videos!

Sorry if that comes off as weird!

[janx218]

I teach Freshman Composition at a university and I just wanted to let you know that I used this video as a way to show my students how to tell a story vividly and with a good amount of detail. I then asked them to write a reflection on how they felt about the video, and the response was unanimously positive. So congratulations. You're helping to shape the minds of the youth.

[azrienoch]

Oh, that's flattering! I don't suppose you could send me some of those, could you?

[choji17]

those stroies were awesomely funny, and i do love the word choice and usage.

[DarkMatter2525]

LOL! (and great analogies btw)

[ihavemonkeysinmybutt]

after i watched this video I smiled and banged my head repeatedly on my kitchen table until i had an erection and then i grabbed a monkey that was just standing next to me and drooling and sticked it up my butt then I ran to a gallagher 2000 strip club across the street and started dancing. It was pretty funny, i dont know why though i guess you had to be there.

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

Gallagher 2000 is so good even martians can't get enough!

[Mental1ssues]

hahahaha!!!!

[potgoddessx420x]

haha im subscribing to you now

[markstrange]

[xXAkridXx]

Agreed

[azrienoch]

You said "boring" with a lot of extra o's.  And it's not deleted. You just got a lot of thumbs down.

[supermaninhevin]

[wickedbadapple]

[evanrdue2053]

[ki6eki]

HAHAHA THATS A GOOD ONE!

[JD154396]

I my god he,s not wearing white

[Corn4664]

hilariously awesome

[ctwright82]

Phenomenal. Do you have poetry?

[zpooky]

You ARE an amazing storyteller.

This is exactly the kind of stuff that caught my attention when I saw your videos for the first time.

[lilkearnz14]

i have now watched all of your videos,

and i have to say,

you are pure genius.

your voice is crisp and very refreshing.

thank you for intoxicating me with your words(:

[Lilylulay]

You are so many forms of Awesome :)

[azrienoch]

Thanks Lily! You're a number of awesomes too.

[treehamallama]

Your so super interesting.

Subscribed.

[speedy66reedy]

I posted my story as a response.

I am new to video blogging so it isn't perfect but I wrote the story myself and enjoyed making it.

After watching it, read the "more info" section for a surprising twist...

[a0eoj]

ha ha 'one nation under google'

[Brandt761]

Hillarious to no end...

[cammicamss]

clarification: not that you are old, but that you have the same humour he had.

neutrogena. haha.

[cammicamss]

you remind me so much of my grandfather.

i miss him.

[zookini33]

OMG, what a riot. 5 stars and a subscription.

[EESg0g0]

FIRST video i watched with you... i laughed my ass off.. im subscribing.. hah you rule man

[EverettsVLOG]

did you have to lick a cat penis or a vagina

[oskinzee24]

Robert Downey Jr lookalike and wannabe.

[grantsinmypants2]

Neutrogena was purchased by the medical device, pharmaceutical, and consumer product conglomerate Johnson & Johnson in 1994.

The conglomerate controls 144 wholly owned subsidiaries around the world. Of these, 104 provide medical devices, 25 provide pharmaceuticals, and only 15 provide consumer products.

[WoWismydrug]

You are cool, and this is the 1st vid ive seen about you, but im not sure if you are a gay/homosexual, from the start when you called the guy "hot!" i was like, wow, that takes A LOT of gutsa to admit over the internet, best of luck to you :D

[Adovid]

"dozens of little faces to face her with"

Sounds like a girl to me.

[Katatawnic]

He didn't call a "guy" hot. Spricket24, to whom he referred as hot, is a beautiful young woman who is quite well known on YouTube. Further, he's a very happily married man (and his wife is mutually happily married), so, to set the record straight (no pun intended), gay/homosexual is out of the scenario. For more information as to his sexual orientation, just ask him. He'll gladly and freely tell you all. ;)

[Brandt761]

"The guy" you're referring to is a girl, as can be ascertained by use of the article "she" in at least one place in the video.

[lntertubes]

Truly good looking people tend to still look good even with zits. Maybe, the problem was just your face itself.

[TwistedScorpio87]

his face does suck afterall. =)

[rayray2012]

damn...I was going to say that!!

[metalangel01]

All the imagery made me spit water all over my monitor..LOL

[jualez]

omg i love that fucking non edit mess up lol

[ucancitblindingu]

i love the neutrogenas deep clean cream lenser part. so good.

[uniquebookworm]

why is that funny

idk guess you had to be there

lol hilarious

[izacdarandomdude]

PENIS

[jlavoie830]

haha, your my freaken, hero! lol.

[HockeyDiane]

LOL. U guess I did have to be there.

[EllieFREAKSHOW]

Best in life; I'm not going to be able to look at my cat for a few weeks though

...awkward...

[GuruMN]

Excellent fictional story. Yeah, I'm sure it was the zits, it would have to be.

[turncoattradering]

Hollywood script? lol. and then nothing to get rid of the nasty "sziTd" . Feline piss, is marriage! An argument for moral doings by not infecting the others and then finding capital support and nonamic ly sensing love? a sad mad has no love, a good man can have love in penile company. A great man always has a great feline pissing on their dickface

[sallyjones22]

i don't want absolute vodka you commercial whore

[PlythonJ]

Hey AZ...

Having fun catching up on your videos!

Peace man,

Jeremiah Christopher / PlythonJ

[azrienoch]

Glad you're enjoying them!

[smukerj]

i would like to say this:

"huh?"

[rebelliouschic]

yawn

[Reproductivist]

South park cheezing rip-off/inspired IMO.

[WoWaddict3d]

MAjor Boobage episode?

[snotpokkit]

I agree with you that storytelling is becoming a lost art, and perhaps it is true that vlogging is becoming more popular, but I do think that vlogging can be and is its own thing, important unto itself. Just because one thing stems from another does not mean that it is a poor attempt at the original. It is an attempt at something new, inspired by some aspects of the original, which finds it's own way and its own virtues.

[Reschat]

I really love the finish :P

[Ticozyne]

A true storyteller. End of comment.

[wintershadows]

Do you go to work looking like that? haha!

[thechurchofdave]

167th!

[thingthingy]

That was fuckin hilarious.

One nation, under Google.

[dl737]

This was hysterical - how do you come up with this stuff? I know - guess I had to be there :)

[azrienoch]

Somewhat true story. Then it's just a matter of making it funnier than, "I guess you had to be there."

[Rokasomee]

"We are one nation under Google"

Yes.

[Blizzeekitty]

I can't type... laughing too hard! :D

[illburnbush]

lol that was great. i would have loved to be their

[Mjhavok]

Woa Woa Woa WOAA!

Did the cat urine work?

[SunnyDazStormyNitz]

ROFLOAO

Absolutely hilarious! The visual of someone forcing water down a cat's throat and squeezing it was just too much. Great vid.

[CameraCapers]

A fantastic story! I will try to retell it, poorly at that, but I won't say... I guess you had to be there.  I'll just show them the clip!

[prykoz123]

hahaha thanks for the video i needed the laugh, you are brilliant! hahaha

[Mephistophilus]

You have a great creative mind & I have advised many to learn something of writing from you.

Alas, their response has mostly been "Will he subscribe or link to me?".

If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man. - Mark Twain

[cehbeach]

So if you're eating a pussy's pussy is it an arithmetical relationship or geometric? IOW, is it just pussy+pussy or is it pussy(squared)?

[Kierketaard]

It is a geometrical one because the label "pussy" refers to two different objects which are not in a linear relationship. The relationship is rather one of vertical angles, viz. if Az is holding the cat up in front of his face: a=c, b=d.

[cehbeach]

Lol! Nice!

[hursty810]

Great job. I mean really, AMAZING job. I agree Spricket is a wonderful storyteller, I think that is why she is popular. Oh and of course she is hot.

I love your videos. I mean absolutely LOVE them!

[arccrow]

I agree with you that the art of storytelling does seem to be on the decline... But I wouldn't necessarily point to vloggers as what is killing the art.

I mean, paint by numbers didn't kill the art of painting, did it? It just made it easy for people without much talent for the art to participate in it.

I believe the blame goes to those with a story to tell, but for various reasons, usually beyond ones own comprehension don't tell that story...

[arccrow]

Yes, I am talking about me there; I am sorry that I can't bring myself to tell the stories that I want to tell.

There are few reasons for that:

1. I know that storytelling is an art form

2. I know that art takes time to learn

3. I have been lazy about learning

4. I am scared to death that I will mess it up

But I am trying to overcome my laziness and my fear...

[arccrow]

So far for me that has resulted in vlogging, and I don't think I'm all that good at that which tends to amplify my fear (not to mention seeing people who are good at it and feeling intimidated)

But I am working on these things... Any suggestions on overcoming fear and/or what to do about learning the craft of storytelling in a rapid fashion?
