Sept. 20th: Wacky String

[KrystinaTheAlien]

Okay, so this scene is very familiar...book case and posters in the cornerr/wall?

[DrHades]

"Oooh, I'm 30..." - hilarious :)

[rachinapotter]

I want to have a kid!!!! AAAWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!! John, I have a surprise for you. His names Henry and he has a full persons supply of awesome.

[hmol257]

"I'm not mad, it didn't hurt my feelings, it's just something I happened to notice" Really. Really. That's exactly why you needed THAT many qualifiers. All spit out that quickly, I might add.

Also a great line: "I'm not having a baby until my husband stops playing with wacky string." You guys are awesome. It'd be surprising, except that it's not, because you're NERDFIGHTERS. :)

[dftbawolf]

hahaha if u pase it at 0:39 it so funny!

[BlueTwinTaco]

Ohhhh i'm thirty...

[marriyumh]

I wouldn't mind a personal Daniel Biss every now and then! :)

[dannerzme]

2:28 nehwdfituhs. haha!

I wanna have a kid, aww...

[bbmonkey14]

It's weird seeing this after watching their fifth anniversary video.

[SasukeisAwesome]

You called Daniel Biss to see how many days were between September 20 and October 1? This channel is officially my soul mate.

[OrangeCowProduction]

Yay wacky irregular polygons :D

[biccy1muncher]

...Did John just try to mimic an Australian accent?

I love you John, but that was truly a fail.

[thethirdkibeth]

@biccy1muncher teehee i was thinking the same thing. it took me a minute to figure out that he was trying to do an aussie accent at all. not even close :D

[DeidaraIsHot154]

@biccy1muncher it sounded Korean to me -w-

[KrustyFrank27]

2:31

[dolphin64575]

I wonder how The Yeti is dealing with one small child and one large child in the Netherlands...

[Lauraa4023]

Irregular polygon ...wow I LOL'D

[TheHatOfDestiny]

It looks like John has been attacked with Parmesan....

[Handitar]

"That's like wacky irregular polygon."

[SubtlyDifferent]

I think this made me love John exponentially more than I already did. =D

[sadtoot]

john's reaction was like a cat on water. i was very happy.

[shellfish1010]

"Ohhhh I'm Thirty"

Made my day.

[jbrothersflywithme]

aw henry :))))

[TheAngryBritishGuy]

Press 2, that is all.

[zero1343]

yay for henry

[HarryPotterTrio91]

Pause the video. Press 2 again and again.

Enjoy nerdfighters!!

[UrSoMeanBoss]

hurray for Death Cab For Cutie opening

<3 that band

[OUdarling]

@UrSoMeanBoss They used that song because, in one of their earliest videos, they're together in a hotel and they're sitting on one of the beds talking about stuff. Hence, "Brothers on a Hotel Bed."

[niminonono]

ummm... just pick it up before she comes home... nah you want the nagging :)

[nathan13x]

Ohh... I'm 30.

lmaoo x

[mithwenarataur]

Damn it! I really should learn not to drink tea while watching your videos! I don't think repeated spraying with tea is conductive to the proper working of MacBooks.

[jeannypoo]

She was so appalled by the congealed Wacky String, in fact, that the baby-making date was moved back to 2009! :O lol. I take it you don't play with Wacky String anymore? :P

[ntcssj]

Well, they were right about waiting a year or two... Ta dah! Now there is Henry!

[ohheysarahk]

Congrats on finally reproducing :)

[Ezo945]

When you talked of the normal amount of awesome being compacted down into child size packets, I began to fear black holes of awesome (awesome holes?) but then I realized that those aren't necessarily bad things.

[ZoeMoi]

lol I would love to 2½ year back and tell you about little Henry :)

[jellodefrancais]

There is a picture of delicious-looking sushi next to your face AND I WANT THE SUSHI

[PrideOfAJuggalo]

Its really weird to watch this video after Henry has been born....

[Raconteur]

You just made my whole office laugh with the phrase "Aaaah, I'm 30..." :). Also, nice use of the word "burnier".

[punchrocker202]

You have one now!

[PatricksJessica]

John, I've started at the beginning of this vlog adventure just a few days agao and this had the funniest comment from you, ever! 'Ah, I'm 30.' Awesome. :)

[pseudocaveman]

"Ohhhhh.... I'm 30."

I haven't giggled that much in a while. Thank you, John.

[jackoftrades80]

Funny watching this video the same day John's baby was born.

[eragonlover1]

The moment you mentioned Hank forgot something, I knew you were referring to yourself.

[mushugai]

should I feel old that Im almost 30? I dont really feel old..

[ElleAri94]

wacky irregular polygon. nerd lol

[ElendilARK]

"Oooh....I'm 30"

XD

[cayrano]

Could u imagine your kid to have a kid ... Grandpa John , how does that sound? :P

[peoplecallmeagoth]

"oooh...I'm 30" LOL!

And I think you would be a great dad.

[MissSpazztastic]

John, the fact that you still play with Wacky String means that you would be a GREAT DAD! You'd be able to play with Wacky String with the kids.

...Once they got old enough to know it's not okay to eat it, of course. XP

[fortheloveofLDS]

Hehe. I want one of the Brothers Green to have a kid so badly. cx

[TabbyKate]

"I'm thirty"

Jin, you make me wanna meet you at 19 and glomp you.... cause it mite be weird to glomp a 30+ year old that I've never met before (in person)

However... I think i will anyway, if i ever meet you.

[SiennaElderly]

Thirty schmirty. Just have fun with life. It's the only one you get.

[expectraus]

hahaha

I love the "I'm 30" comment!!

[shoulderfreckles]

Oh gooodness... <3 you're so funny.

[supermankingbatman]

Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever get off-brand Silly String!

[punkslilncs]

when silly strings goes bad it comes out in balls and chunks not meant to shake while spraying shake then spray and those are the reasons it came out flawed.

[Brighteh]

Who cares if you're thirty?!

[lalalaamichelle]

You.

Are.

Amazing.

[cookie4monster4]

The whole part where you were talking about the kids and having babies I was cracking up. I had to pause the video for about two minutes while I stopped laughing and then clicked play and started the cycle all over again.

This video just made me particularly giddy.

[senorsqueakydesk]

Wacky string is awful. I've seen it take paint off of a car. Not immediately of course, but given the time it can do dangerous things.

[Fralmunk]

Go John for being thirty and STILL PUTTING STUFF ON YOUR HEAD!!!!! YAY!

[MUTEscifan31W]

At about 1:40 I laughed because only earlier when the video started did I think about how much I love your giant forehead! XD (I say love in the most non gay way it can be said.)

[Ravachu91]

I liked the "Oh...I'm thirty"

NerdFighters have the right to have their inner child on the outside sometimes!

[sweetidiocracy]

Once a game of wacky string tag went horribly wrong in my house. The wacky string was about a year old, and hit the wall before hitting my targeted sister. Then the wacky string hardened...to this day there is still a large mosaic of pink wacky string on our living room wall.

Be careful where you point that thing John.

[kira902k]

hahaha aww that made me laugh.

"its like irregular polygon wacky"

"ohhhh im thirty"

thirty is the perfect age to be a child again. its inbetween the time when you have to act all cool and go partying a lot, and when you have your own child.

so yeah.

promise us somehting though:

if you have a baby soon...you will keep vlogging??

[UsadaNeko]

xD Ok I was going to write a comment saying "Oooooh, I'm thirty" but I guess many people did it already xD so I'll just LOL and that's all.

Oh, I love you John :3. Your baby would be the awesomest baby of all nerdfighteria <3

[Amiryfey]

yea you are thirty...so?

[DittoFreak]

Comment 183:

Hands up if you think that John really, really, really needs to have children?

[MyLIfeStudios]

@DittoFreak on behalf of john "been there done that " haha :)

[nfarley01]

@DittoFreak I love that this is the top rated comment because it has been proven so true. Henry is indeed a bundle of awesome.

[supertheaedithman]

@DittoFreak I think that the future will please you!

[lampposteffect]

@DittoFreak Sounds like he listened!

[sethboy66]

@DittoFreak hey i am from the future. HINT:john has children ;)

[epicbladers1]

@DittoFreak 3 years later;

[CleverestWitch2188]

I've determined something. If we could clone and preserve John... I would totally do it just for moments like this.

Thanks for sacrificing your baby date in order to entertain and brighten the days of nerdfighters all over the world.

DFTBA

[cookie4monster4]

Probably one of the bestcomments I've seen on their videos.

[CleverestWitch2188]

haha. Thanks. =)

[AEM327]

LOL

but if you stop plaing with silly string when you have a kid... the kid will have a silly-string-less childhood!!! this is a massive problem and the Yeti should understand the inportance of silly string! :)

[friswellave]

you gotta put stuff on your head... put stuff on your head!

like green irregular polygons! the colour doesn't matter if it's on your head!

[chaynsaw21]

"(John laughs) Ohhhhh I'm thirty."

Hahahahaha! ROFLcopter!!! LMBO!! (Falls of couch and bangs head on floor) Hahahahaha!

[ihateyou5137]

haha i love how you laugh at yourself. :)

[abecedarianx]

haha! Ohhh I'm thirty. XD

lol. i feel it eating away at my scalp

[jamba66]

"Ohhhhhhh, I'm thirty."

Yes, but a young thirty. xD

[Hakudohshi]

*Squirt* Hehe, oooooh...I'm thirty

That made me laugh so hard, ilu John xD

[dude33369]

i feel it eating away at my scalp lol

[nodarp]

New Jersey likes soda.

and I like the wacky string that looked like a peep!

I want peeps.

[lexygoestolondon]

"only burny-er" I love it! And wacky string (i always called it silly string) is totally jokes! Plus, this is my birthday!

[tokyosweetheart]

wacky irregular polygons =]

[mcflyloveme]

hahahahahaha "ohh i'm 30", i hope im like you when im 30 john.

[deaddiscoxo]

LOL one of my fave john lines...ever.

He says it with such wistful amusement.

[TwiztidxToxxic]

lmao u sprayed that stuff as if it was a punishment.

[supersexysix]

'sigh..... i'm 30.....'

lol

[shmaller]

"Ohh, I'm 30." Jokes.

[maryflt]

forreal.

ahhahaha.

"i'm not having a kid until my husband stops playing with silly string."

oh boy

[miinganharmony]

I've never heard it called "Wacky String". Here in Michigan, we call it "Silly String". Maybe it is a regional thing, like "Pop" and "Soda".

[Readera]

IN texas it's called silly string too. odd

[miinganharmony]

Haha... WEIRD! :P

[BestJaxx]

John and I both live in Indianapolis, and it is normally called Silly String.

[miinganharmony]

Well, he didn't grow up there. If I remember right, he grew up in Florida, so maybe it's wacky string there. Or maybe I just made a total nerdfighter mistake and he isn't really from Florida... that would be bad :P

[BestJaxx]

You're right, but he needs to start calling it Silly String like other hoosiers.

[miinganharmony]

Agreed. When my stepdad moved to Michigan from Wisconsin, he called pop "soda". It drove us all crazy. After a few years we have converted him, and whenever we go to Wisconsin to see his family he yells at them form calling it soda, too :)

[KellyLynnx2x]

I live in New Jersey and the word "pop" sounds funny to me. lol I've never used the word pop before actually. I guess it all depends where you live.

[mbw563]

i live in the south and we call it soda but i know how you feel but backwards when i go to ohio everyone calls it pop and it drives me crazy

[MissAllifer]

Well, he called it silly string the first time....

then he called it wacky string...

so he's almost there!!

there's just a glitch somewhere.

[cheezmonky12]

the brand he used was named 'wacky string'

you can see it at 0:33

[CHK046]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh he's thirty

[lillyevans22]

ina tiny compact awsome package

!!!

[muggleotter5]

waky irregualr polygon.....bhahahahahha!!!

[swatkins246]

i actually laugh out loud during each of your videos. it makes my day

[Vuji222]

You would make a great dad.

[ginnyrokz]

lol. omg. ahaha you guys are hilarious. ohh im 30. kids ahaha the yeti

[senajoy12]

albino squirrel t-shirt! I am sad to report that the elusive squirrel, and the association whose mission was to preserve it, died a tragic death. the unoffical university of north texas mascot was taken away by an eagle (the unt official mascot). in conclusion.... albino squirrels=nerdfighters eagles=decepticons

[re1d]

I too know the feeling of "ohh..i'm 30"

Only last week when wearing a beer box on my head with holes poked thru' for eyes did i say:

"oh dear...I'm 28"

[dontbeadunce]

...ohhh im 30.

i love it. hahah

[regularguy5mb]

Take better care of your hair John, you'll miss it when it's gone.

[Briellesabop]

ooo baby lectures... 0.o

[RememberTheTrees]

ahahahaa wow.

[lobi89]

Aw, that was adorable. And funny... :D

[actressluv]

ooh...Im 30.

lol the greatest line ever.

[Indrina]

She's not gonna have a baby 'cause she already has one: you!

^_^

[LiftedShadows]

So, that was absolutely hilarious. xD And you are never too old to play with wacky string, though the wacky string might be too old for you to play with...particularly if it gains the ability, with age, to eat away at your skin. o___o

[ashvdm7]

Wacky Flailing inflatable salesman?

[Tamelean]

lol

[AsFarAway]

little late but hey. first year wedding anniversary gifts are traditionally paper...(though i think that's usually for gits from spouses to one another) but i can't help but see the book parallel..paper towns...eh? eh? and that fulfills my cheesy comment for the day quota :)

[gues09]

funny! so your john? Does Hank not vlog as often as? im confused.. yet amused.

love the forehead comment!

[vlogbrothers]

Hank vlogs every other day. If you go to our channel, there will be 90 videos from him and 90 videos from me. -John

[fairykisses91]

"ohhh... i'm thirty" so funny

[enderwigginsx]

its like the selson blue 'tingle' only... burnier...

[mach7mach10]

oh. my. god. I laughed so hard I think I might have peed a little...

[Modosarcasm]

Haha, this video made me laugh so hard, simply because of the quote "I'm not going to have a baby until my husband stops playing with wacky string" shortly followed by "I can't myself, Hank, it's so fun! *pause*

Oh, I'm thirty."

[justdancewouldya]

haha well the silly string gets all icky like it did when you dont use it in a long time xD

[Marah707]

You+Yeti=need to have child.

[DorKPrincEss07]

the solution is, just vacuum the wacky string thingos off the floor. i reckon a baby you/yeti would be super cute, though also half abonimamambabbubl.. im sleepy

[tikitorchfire]

I think they may have miss labled the wacky string... is seems more like Wacky Hair Eating Confetti. but it's still so much fun in such a little can!!

[Cypresswhisker2]

An Abundance of Katherines was on the board of most popular teen novels at the library. And a Librarian was looking at it. :)

[omgneekz]

I went to Borders bookstore today and I saw "Looking for Alaska" by John Green on the Most Popular table.

[FushigiY]

John (and Hank) I am very unlucky. I don't have a camera or a camcorder and even though I do have a phone it doesn't have video!!!!!!!!! *cries* and it's a shame too b/c I have such a jokes happy dance

[Ice723]

"Whatever shall we do without the amount of porn sites that people send us?"-John Green

[saraadx3]

john i love you.

[WarriorMan18]

HAHAHA Good one with the wacky string John! Sorry I haven't sent in my happy dance video, I keep forgetting. Don't worry I'll get it to you by October 1st.

[MrsFelton27]

hehhee the return of the wackstring

[whitneyofgreatness]

i wanted to say something, but i totally foget.

oh, now i remember!

i would love to send you guys my "beef stew happy dance", but i'm a loser.

you guys rock!

[bookworm92093]

hey the 20th was my birthday!!! im so glad that your video was on my birthday. i like you better than hank. :D

[met295]

WACKY STRING!!! =D

[Marj12592]

I despise all of these people that spam the comment section...

Yeah, lots of strange things come out of that string stuff.

[morot172]

You really are a nerd. That's so great :D

Go Nerdfighters!

[adulationx]

Oh, by the way John, I finished Looking for Alaska and I have to say, what an incredible read. Once I started crying, I couldn't stop. Amazing, and thank you for that awesome delivery.

[Johncan93]

to get rid of spammers like the ones below this comment you might want to try and change your password that has helped me in the past :)

[Kaokie]

I've never had silly string... D:

[bakedbeans1010]

nice, i cant belive you went that whole vid with silly string in your hair

[Johncan93]

hey, i dont fully understand the concept of secret siblings first of all what are they? also how do you become a secret sibling?

[waori]

I think you have to post a vdeo response

[Johncan93]

ok thanks

[IconicIrony]

Awesome, as always. Your videos always make me crack up, or at least giggle.

[bakseatdrivur89]

Lol the Yeti

I was wondering John, Is An abundance of Katherine's based off of Hank's Kathryn or was it sheer luck? Not the book itself but just the name

[gamergert]

"ooooooohh... I'm 30...." that was AMAZINGLY AWESOME!

[Misticite]

Lol John: I am not sure if you will read this or not; however, I feel compelled to tell you that you are a celebrity at my High School. I am currently in my Jr. Year, and EVERYONE has read or is reading your books. Looking for Alaska is like the new "A Child Called IT." just not as sad and not as popular. GO NERDFIGHTERS!

[hawksense]

wacky irregular polygon?

but if its wacky doesn't that make it regular

the fact that the string doesn't resemble string

is why its wacky.

wacky string.

[drsmit8]

Great. Good job.

Could you check out my new vid. It involves fire!

[xEmoxBarbiex]

"Oh....I'm 30."

My sister and I were cracking up so much when we heard that

[colincito]

a good idea for hanks next song would be an amv with one his songs!

[ambercrayon]

Don't worry, since 40 is the new 30, 30 is the new 20, 20 is the new 10... and 0 is the new -10.

[GaaraRadley]

NOOOO WASH IT QUICK!! Ohhhhh John, you're awesome, even if you're 30 XDDD

[marquisdejolie]

Zefrank! Where have you been?

[DRTtom]

ha ha that was funny

[MadM3rv]

This happens when it gets old. Make sure to share vigorously for 45 seconds, then hold at a 45 degree angle and keep away from your eyes.

[stephaniebouchard]

I loved when you said, "oh I'm thirty" that was amazing. I think you should be more honest in your videos instead of trying to entertain, because what I find most entertaining about you are those little glimpses of reality that are sometimes captured in your videos.

[bitemywrists]

Wacky string is the devil. In a drunken stupor on New Years last year we decided to spray it everywhere (and not clean it up). There are still bits of it stuck to the woodwork and in the carpet in my apartment that I don't think can ever be removed.

[funkwurm]

I believe you Americans call this "acting your age", although that certainly wouldn't be something that I would know anything about.

Playing with wacky string...in your pants.

[Stephiedanger]

your my hero.
