  • Drake Christopher dropped out of high school. I DO Love his music

  • Thank you Onision! Great advice! Okay now go back to making eating shit videos or making a false video about a disease youre girlfriend " has"

  • @Ben1987X

    shut up. If you don't have anything better do than make shitty comments, then get a life.

  • You need an education. At least finish high school. You can always go back to college.

  • you're a hypocrite, didn't you drop out?

  • @Karopex I don't think he did drop out. But even if he did, he's not being a hypocrite. He's just saying why someone should finish school. Possibly cause it's what he believes, or possibly because it's what he's been through. He could be directing this video to himself and all of his viewers for all we know.

  • @Karopex u cnt join the milatry if u drop out dip shit

  • @Karopex He didn't drop out, he finished early by taking college classes.

  • High school diploma, college degree, EDUCATION! It is better, far much better to have one, and not need it..... THAN IT IS TO NEED AN EDUCATION / SKILLS..... AND NOT HAVE IT!

    STAY IN SCHOOL! The discipline / responsibility that you have, will do you much good in life later!!

  • Back up plans are for people expecting failure

  • John D. Rockefeller (the richest man to ever live) dropped out 

  • @Baller527 And there are many who "dropped out" and could not make a successful, happy go of it. They regretted dropping out. EDUCATION / SCHOOLING. IT is far better to have it, and not need it.... THAN IT IS TO NEED IT, AND NOT HAVE IT!

  • Jessica Simpson dropped out

  • but greg, you yourself said that you dropped out of school..

  • @williepie If you TRULY meant those words, i pity you, don't take it in offence, but as a person who has lived, grown up, and educated in many countries such a China, Russia, Ukraine, France , Mexico and finally the USA i must tell you something, you have NOT KNOW WHAT IT IS, if you think its bad that someone called you a name, even a boy died because he was Bullied for being gay, you do not know what happens in other countries, and for your own sake, i will not tell you what is it.

  • Im not dropping out! To me..School and life is like a game. Its eat or be eatten, so I say 'skrew the rules im a TOBI!' so I see that by dropping out or letting the bullies get to me im letting them win.

    And

    I

    HATE

    To

    Lose.

  • Get a high school G.E.D. and some training at a technical school. However you can forget about College because it is a scam. I waste 4 years on absurdness.

  • i just dropped out of high school because the teachers told me to then i realized that school was important so im going to get my ged as we speak im doing very well other han having adhd witch is also y i dropped out. i just coodnt pay attention id drift off into space and forget everything but at the colledge my teacher actually cares he nos i hav probs paying attention so wen he sees me drifting off hell call my name hes o great im gonna get my ged soon wish me luck!!!!!!!

  • This is a total bullshit video. Regardless of the situation, if it's stupid or not, people will obviously think of the consequences. I haven't been in school for twom months and I want to leave. The only thing stopping me so far is upsetting others. I know it sounds stupid but I don't give a fuck about my job and if I look back I'm not going to say I was a fool because i'm aware of what it does. I think of this every day and it's far from the top of my list to stay.

  • no one would be special hahaha

  • School is a bullshit system to keep kids in prison where they get tormented by other kids

  • (Continued) online school to get an education. I want to make something of myself. I'm not going to just drop out and try to go out there and make a fool of msyelf and attempt to get famous when I'm just fourteen. No, I'm getting an education, I'm getting a ged, I'm going to go to college, and I'm going to eventually be successful. Does that mean I'm an idiotic kid? No. I think I have a perfectly good reason for what I'm doing. I'd rather be out of school then end up being burried 6 feet under.

  • You know.. I dropped out of school. I am fourteen years old. I got bullied every day very harshly because I'm fat, not very attractive, and not the most intelligent. You see, bullying got so bad that I thought of suicide several times and I cut myself. I needed an escape. One day, I sat down and told my mother what happened, and I ended up crying for two hours straight. She assured me that I didn't have to go through that anymore, so she let me drop out. I'm doing online (to be continued xD)

  • lil wayne was getting good grades at the university of houston but had to drop out cause of comflicting schedule

    HE STILL FINISHED THO at university of phoenix

  • This is the Onision I miss.

  • Everyone goes through it. Its a choice between passion and security. I myself am struggling with one of the same. I'm in college studying to be an Engineer. My soul screams for music, to live, breathe, and excrete a sound that echoes the feelings of my heart. Yet, alas, all society around me says to be 'safe'. Hopefully I will be able to find myself, my middle ground, or perhaps (in my best case scenario) be able to play music for a living?

  • it doesnt matter how old you are...you can be fucking 10 and be more mature than a 30 year old guy

  • @Tman545380 The only way that a 10 year old could be more mature than a 30 year old guy is if the 30yr old had something mentally wrong. And i'm not saying that in a mean way. I know a 46 year old retarded man named Wayne and he acts pretty mature for someone who is supposed to have a mind of a 5 year old.

  • @MMFWCLJuggaletteFuck Never underestimate the young though. The young, although to an old person may seem inexperienced and ignorant, possess great potential. To categorize all young people as immature and unknowledgeable is, in itself, a rather childish act.

  • I dropped out, but to go to uni early :) Over acheiver haha.

  • @Jesscukable how?

    did you get your HS diploma i mean

  • Comment removed

  • @McEddi3 Over here in New zealand we dont have 'diplomas' we have 5th 6th 7th form and they work like this. . . there are things called NCEA levels. Level 1 for 5th form, 2 for sixth etc etc. For each of those level you sit test and assesments and exams. They work on a credits system. An example is you may get 2 credits for an essay. You need 80for each level. If you get 80 at level 3 (or higher) you're finished! You can get pass with acheivement, merit or excellence. Make sense? :)

  • Russia? no, I'm moving to the unicorn country :3

  • i dropped out of school at 14 .. got my diploma of hairstyling at 15 and now 15 turning 16 in october i am a successful freelance hairstylist... i do hairstyles for runway and photoshoots for an agency and next year i'll be working for one of the top salons in my city i'm pretty sure i'll be fine because i've planned well :) and i dont believe that all "kids" dont know what they want and cant handle the "real world" ...

  • @JulieVonJawbreaker Some really dont know though. You don't have an incredible amount of maturity as a teenager (generally speaking), but the steriotypical view that they're naieve etc didn't pop outta no where.

  • @Jesscukable still SUCKS to be JUDGED by age 

  • @JulieVonJawbreaker I agree, I get judged even by my classmates, like 'why is she in here' kinda thing. i agree. Some highschool work is pathetically easy, most of it . . well all of it really haha

  • @Jesscukable lol 

  • @beastikid98 psycho ? =P

  • Roger Waters..the MIND of Pink Floyd dropped out.

    Alan Moore...writer of the greatest graphic novel, Watchmen, dropped out

    Bob Dylan, drop out of college

    and soooooo many more talented people did too

  • @HowlingUnderground and soooo many more talented people did too, but never got actually got famous or anywhere in life, others should be grateful that they actually have a chance for an education.

  • I dropped out oh High School.. My math teacher was a Pervert, And my gym teacher treated me like a lesser-being because i'm not a "middle-class Canadian" my Vice Principal called my mom a bitch for standing up for me. My back up plan? Secondary Schooling. 4 hours a day. That way I can go to school then work Part time. Then take my GED and go to college. There is always an Option B. ( Secondary Schooling ~ GED )

  • So what hes saying is If you drop out and people follow you no one will be special because the magic way to get to a celebrity is by dropping out?

  • Wow...Celebrities are just people...we make them who them who they are by the way we treat/look at them you dumbass and they are most definitely special..they are just like the people you talk shit about, most of them are people who went for it and got lucky, you have no reason to put your 2 cents in considering you have no idea what these people are thinking of or going for.

  • So, this guy is never going to be a rocket scientist?

  • Peace and Positivity be with you sir......you Need It.

  • But simply being Special does not entitle you nor Anyone Else to believe they are some Authoritative Figure on Life Advice. Also Attempting to tell others how to LIVE. Go out and LIVE YOUR OWN LIFE, as opposed to Telling Others how to Live Theirs....

  • @popnxanies He's giving advice. He is not telling ANYONE how to live there life. He's giving his opinion on it.

  • That's more of a life lesson and motivational message than Any video of yours I've seen thus far....no offense, but work on your speech skills, and also you EYE CONTACT with the camera, Looking around makes each video as INsincere as Possible....Just some Constructive Criticism there buddy....You finally DID say ONE SINGLE THING I Do agree with though. Everyone Is Special. You're Unique, just like EVERYONE ELSE....

  • I also recieved the Highest score in my STATE. Got a personal Letter from my Essay Reader saying it was hands down the Best Essay he had ever had the Pleasure of reading and Scoring. I missed perfect 800's in EVERY subject across the board, by ONE wrong question in mathematics by messing up on my answer sheet....I dropped out when I was only 15 by the way.....Dropping Out of School has no relevance nor is a display of Intelligence or Lack thereof. I'm attending college with a 4.2 gpa...

  • a big part of a job application is the work and school history. you dont have much of that when trying to go into the music industry.

  • Onision knows his shit.

  • @Mukadez no he didnt. because onison dropped out of school X3

  • I happened to drop out at the age of 17, school was so mundane - lacked substance. Went straight for my GED. Do I regret it? Not at all. I'm holding down a decent paying job & on top of that, I'm starting college in the fall.

  • @Ex101

    Hell Yes! That's what I'm talking about, I was actually forced to drop out pretty much by my corrupt local school board. For my style, long hair, laid back, loving life. I got Great Grades, maintained a 4.0 or better, yet because I was a "longhair" I was being FORCED to SIGN A CONTRACT, saying I was subject to Random Urinalysis, In School Suspension when the Principal Wanted....I fought this with the Board, they wouldnt see my case. I now have a GED.

  • everyone is special

  • EVERY TIME I LOOK AT YOU I SEE.. SHORT HAIR... LONG HAIR .. .WHATS GOING ON !! YOU TRANSFORM ???

  • I wanted to drop out so bad! I was bullied, made fun of for having tourettes and adhd, I was not making any progress in school I was going to drop out but then my dad died and knew I would have done him wrong if I were to drop out so I kept going and I graduate this friday from high school! I made it anyone can make it! Don't give up!

  • @KJT922010T yo that actually touched me

  • @KJT922010T i have tourettes syndrome too. people just laugh at the shit i say xD they never really made fun of it but i know how you must feel :(

  • @KJT922010T Dude at our school people like kids with tourettes its kind of weird. haaha

  • @KJT922010T DUDE!!! I also have Tourette's and ADHD, and what you said is actually pretty inspiring. Thanks :)

  • @KJT922010T if you went to my school I would go to you and tried my best to make you laugh ! and I would try to keep you up when you fell down ! because bullies are just weak and low minded people ! I would not make fun of you for youre aghd or tourettes I would think that it was youre uniq thing and that it mmade you the person you are !people like you are true heros and I admier you so much !sorry for very bad english ! but i'm from Norway ! I hope God take good care of yore father :)

  • @TheOdilie Aww thank you :)

  • Dropping out of school can have several reasons. But whatever reason it is that makes you quit school, consider that it might not be more important than your entire future. I mean, there are people out there who dropped out of school to start something different, and yes, they did fight and actually made their way to something. Then again there are also people who just got to nowhere in life. I'd say if you want to chase your dreams, at least go for a low academic level, but don't end up wit non

  • Education of course is important. Though I believe it's a whole different ball game when you live in a house hold with just one parent usually mother because some fathers are pieces of shit unless otherwise, and bills are piling up. I understand that. But other than that dropping out is dumb.

  • I left school because the education system is fucked. I believe that i can now educate myself. If someone will not give me a job because i don't have a piece of paper which states that i am qualified then they can get fucked. I'd rather learn what i want and think for myself. I would only suggest this in rare circumstances though, the present and future generations of children are FUCKED, they need all of the education they can get.

  • highschool is overrated

    the american dream is overrated

    modern society and the social system is a fluke

    the goverment is corrupt

    IM MOVING TO FUCKING RUSSIA!

  • @williepie Fuck yeah! I'm not even kidding.

  • @williepie In soviet russia. RUSSIA MOVES TO YOU.

  • @williepie fuck that lets go to Amsterdam :D

  • @williepie Russias run by the mafia isn't it? lolol

  • @williepie OMG WATCH OUT RUSSIAN NEO-NAZIS!

  • @LuciferChristoph666 im not colored so i dont have to worry about nazis

  • @williepie No Russia worse go to Ukrain

  • @williepie russia is the same way, but good luck with that

  • @williepie lol some one called me a terrorist for touching the american flag

  • @williepie Russia is 1 of the worst countries u can find

  • @williepie I'm moving to Germany. :3

  • @williepie Im moving to Japan (After they clean it up)

  • @ncrocker100 clean what up? you know that there still radiation in Hiroshima and Nagasaki since the bombs dropped in 1945. if you want to move there just move there.but please do your research. Japan is very culturally ethnocentric country and it is very hard for anyone who is not born Japanese to make it, let alone be accepted there

  • @williepie Tell Fps hi

  • @williepie

    go to the netherlands, weed is legal there

  • @EJHMUSIC666 or Holland.

  • @williepie good luck

  • hey onision what are you thoughts on marrying your high school girlfriend then divorcing once you get semi famous on youtube... ROFL

  • I hate school!! but guess what? you need school if you like it or not because jobs ask you for a high school diploma. So like it or not, just get through it and get it over with..

  • What high school kids need to know is, when it comes to the "real world" they only see what they show on t.v and you can't necessarily trust t.v. They think they had it hard in high school? Goddamn, they should ask their parents whether or not THEY would choose high school over the real world, I bet more than half of them would say they wished they were back in high school. I know my mom does.

  • @PandemicInfektion ...My years in high school were the worst in my life. I'm so happy I could graduate and get out of that judgmental island of hell.

  • @Marievska That's a bit melodramatic, don't you think? The worse in your life? You must not be very fresh out of high school.

  • @PandemicInfektion True :P

    But seriously, I had really low self-esteem and I think I might have gone through depression during those times, although I was too ashamed to talk about my problems and get therapy. So I doubt I could feel as bad as I did then, so long as I feel good about who I am. But I guess it could be worse, on another level...

  • @Marievska My depression stemmed mostly through being screwed over relationship after relationship. I got cheated on, dumped, and talked shit to from almost every one of my ex girlfriends, save for a few who weren't VERY psychotic, and one who was completely normal. Then one of my ex's thought it would be funny to spread a rumor that I raped her (why she picked me, I know not to this day)

    Needless to say, I've felt the lowest forms of depression and near insanity, but I'm doing better now.

  • @PandemicInfektion Yeah, you've PROBABLY had it worse than me :P Happy to know you've overcome depression!

  • *musician, sorry (:

  • I really wanna be a famous mucision but I wanna get through college first so I can show people that just because you're famous doesn't mean you're dumb, because a lot of people seem to think that. Plus I love learning and school :3

  • So If you don't go to college, you're dumb? Ha ha.

    And why does it matter if you become famous or not? If you're going to work with music you should do it because you have a passion for it, not because you wanna be famous. There are enough of those people in the music industry already.

  • My friend wants to drop out I think she needs too watch this

  • Finish high school ... AT LEAST. If college isn't right for you, fine. But at least finish high school before going towards those dreams.

  • oh so you are not young im sorry buddy but you are he most immature person i know

  • everyone is special....

  • My grandfather chased me and my father out of his home with a shot gun (where we lived at the time). You can understand why we packed up and moved. 5 hours away. I went to a private school, we owed them money, my dad was waiting on his taxes to come back to pay them off, we got to my new school, I had turned 17 a week before, the woman said "we are not required to enroll you because your 17" and by the time taxes came back it would be to late to enroll. So I was forced to drop out. 

  • I considered it because the institutional aspect turns me off. I like having energy of the individual rather than the lessened energy of superiors. However, I realized that my goal in like is to steward the universe and the most most efficient way of doing that is with a quality education.

  • Ya im 15 and I completely agree. Of course when I was little and first started playing guitar I thought of becoming famous but once I turned 13 I realized thats not going to happen. But now I plan on getting my grade 12 and working 2 years after school then heading of to another cooking school but if that fails then I plan to work with heavy equipement because I already have knowledge and experience with it and I also enjoy using it.

  • I left school because all the teachers said I couldn't learn. I went to home-schooling (My mother taught me herself) and I am now able to place 6 different introments and wrote three unpublished books. (:

    So, dropping out of public school and serve you justice.

  • man this is so true how i view it is adults may teach us to dream but they never teach us how to stop. keep in mind im 15

  • @sethboy66 I'm 16 and i agree.

  • @UniqueEverlasting most people would think that what i said is just narrow minded, so thanks for your support.

  • @sethboy66 School is not mean for everyone, so you are welcome.

  • damn son u like dr fill n shit :) but ur 100% right wats ur veiw on doing drugs?

  • All my parents dropped out of school, and still made it through life.

  • How about you don't drop out of school? Don't be an idiot. School isn't hard, people who drop out are just lazy and make excuses like "oh I get picked on in one class." yeah so you decide to throw your life away? BULLSHIT! No excuses! Stay in school if you don't want to struggle your whole life. Nothing makes you special so don't think "Oh I'll be fine cos I'm confident". Don't be stupid...

  • dropped out of high school??

    JOIN THE ARMY!

    thats what onison did and look where hes now:D

  • i dropped out lol thumbs up if u did to lol

  • That question was ignorant as hell lol

  • I don't understand why people would want to drop out. Even if you have a stable job to rely on, why would you deny yourself education, when humans could not survive without knowledge?

  • I dropped out of school. I'm doing fine.

    I didn't want to be famous, though. I'm currently majoring in linguistics.

  • This is so crazy,i didnt drop out of school to be famous,i dropped out for many reasons. this person that sent you this question is alot like me. one reason i dropped out (and i commented pretty much the same thing on the video about your grades) because i already am in a band. i work for my dad and we are pretty successful i think. actually you can look up "wayne renn" here on youtube and see our music videos, anyway i dropped out to pursue my dream that im already living. ill go back if needed

  • Nice green screen. I can't find anything to criticize about this video, so... Good job?

  • I want to be a famous musician but I don't plan on dropping out of school. I plan on finishing all of it and then going to college.

  • "you're special, just like everyone else."

  • And don't we all see the world "in a kind of warped way."

  • It's Toby Cavanaugh! from pll.

  • @sidneysemone no... its not..

  • @taylorbabez14 i know it's not him. he just has the same weird face

  • My best friend is taking online classes to get through high school quickly to become a musician. He has told me dropping out is fine, I hope he doesn't, cause your right he probably will want a plan b, I know if he had to he could live off his parents though and they would let him:/

  • well what do you think of a GED?

  • @UTF5658 A GED is just as good as a high school diploma. In fact, my friend took the GED test and passed and he got his diploma in the mail and it said "High School Diploma" its another of way of earning your high school diploma. And to be honest, what person drops out of school to be famous? What are we on TV? No one does that anymore. In reality, people dont drop out and than have a soaring ambition to be famous. People dont do that anymore. That is so 15 years ago.

  • @ImSoBrandon Dude, dropping out of school to be a famous TV person is so 1990s. It's called YouTube now :p

  • @TheDJBlueyE What are you talking about ? I can't tell if you being sarcastic or not

  • wow this is WAY off topic...but is his background moving?

  • @AtlanaKing Its probably his greenscreen

  • One thing is being stupid and dropping out because you think you will succeed, another thing is being smart and dropping out to make sure school doesnt take time off something more important to you.

  • i had to drop out of high school bc i had gotten sick and after working my ass off and almost getting to graduate i had to go to the hospital and all they told me was well ur only options are drop out get ur ged, home school or we'll take you to court, i went and got my ged and went to college a yr before everybody in my class after almost graduating hs in 2 yrs but some things dont go as planned i guess

  • You know what I found ironic?

    I go to the high school Mary J. Blige went to. For those who don't know, she dropped out and became famous, rich, etc.. About three years ago, she came in, gave a speech about how you shouldn't drop out (even though she did and became famous) to the children in the school least likely to drop out.

    Feh, it was just so much fuss over things that didn't make any sense.

  • Some ppl don't have a choice.

  • i dont think anyone should drop out of high school because you can be so much more than just a person having a lame job at a fast food place and i dont want to end up in the streets begging for money i want to live in a nice house not a mansion but just a house and if you dont get accepted into schools like Harvard,USC,Brown,UCLA,Spellma­n,etc there is always community college that is just as good as all those other schools

  • @MiguelCamposTV1 thats not what happens to everybody that drops out i went to college a yr before my class and i have a gpa of 4.0 hs is not meant for everybody

  • My last two years of high school was unbearable. The school was overcrowded with stupid people who only got in my way of learning. It had its good points and i really enjoyed my freinds, but i really wish i could have had a differnt learning experience.

  • All I can say is my years in school have done their damage to me psychologically and to this day I'm still living a life that many would not consider worth living. I eventually got my GED but avoided going to college for fear of being teased on and bullied during my school days. And when I see all these people who I grew up with on Facebook, it makes me think that I might as well just be dead to them. Kids can be cruel, and it only seems to be getting worst these days.

  • I'm sorry to hear that so many people had bad school experiences that caused them to drop out. I'm in grad school for accounting right now (I'm 23), and I'm not necessarily "passionate" about accounting, but... I don't know, I've always loved school and I've always been an academic and goal-oriented person. Even after I get my Master's, I know I'm going to miss school and I'll likely go back again for one reason or another.

  • I skipped some months in elementary school (8year version) and high school (4year version) because everyone was a goddamn bully. Now I'm in uni/college and I met only nice people and haven't skipped a day since.

  • If i dont pass high school im going to work at gamestop my life. If i do pass i plan to join the army like my dad.

  • I dropped out my freshmen year, high school was just a horrific waste of time.

    Going to community college getting my associates degree, then either transferring to university or a good college :]

    School is great, but period between 9th - 12th grade it's the worst. Don't want to get into detail.

  • I dropped out near the end of 9th grade. My life? So much better. :)

    Elementary school - I learned a lot.

    Middle school - Learned quite a bit, and had the best friends and the BEST times ever.

    High School - Nothing. All I learned is that Teachers&Staff only give a fuck about the kids on the A honor roll. You get suspended for stupid shit.(got suspended for 4 days, for wearing a hat) Student teacher called the office saying I was smoking pot in front of her in class. Bitch, I don't smoke shit. :\

  • Quentin Tarantino dropped out of middle school. Now we have Kill Bill and an incredible remake of Inglorious Bastards. :)

  • I wish I could be a zealot like Onision.

  • haha...christofer drew dropped out..

  • @sperlunkin123 i was thinking about him too haha

  • @OldDyingRetard Nobody likes other people who talk in all caps. Also people who do not use correct grammar.

  • this is what i know guys...

    a not so well known quotation from rock lee(naruto)

    he said "a drop out will beat a genius through hardwork"

  • Your right but you could say it nicer

  • it would be horrible if everyone saw the world the way this dingleberry does

  • Billie-Joe Armstrong (Green Day) dropped out of high school. Look at him now

  • @deadendguitarist Yeah, he got his ten minutes of fame and now he-- well all of them are losers. o.O;

  • @CourtneyGamerGirl What are u stupid? More like 10 years. add 5 or 6. Have you never heard of 1994's Dookie? Or Insomniac? Nimrod? The last of their conerts I went to (Sept 2010) they sold out to 20,000 people!

  • @deadendguitarist @tsmetal Of course I'm not retarded. They've just had a lot of strain on the band, and the new album isn't selling well versus all the other singers coming out-- be them talented or disney trainwrecks. It's retarded of you to think they can keep up when pop is the new 'it' genre.

  • @CourtneyGamerGirl ummm are you retarded? green day's first string of alums were incredible and im not all for they're new stuff but its ok. like them or hate them they are still one of the biggest bands in the world and they are still very successful sooo ten minutes of fame? hes still living his fame.

  • @deadendguitarist well thats him ust cause it worked well for him doesnt mean its gunna work out for everyone thats why its better to have a plan b

  • I will, not Say Dropping out is good, But I am not against it, for the simple fact that, my best friends dad is a drop out, he makes over 100 U.S dollars an hour, But Most people, won't get this. Yes it might still work out and you might have a great life, but most people who drop out will not abtain much money in their job

  • This is too true.

  • One of the few things Onision has ever said that I can agree with 100%.

  • @Helmholz42 He probably copied it from someone else.

  • @xXmilesdavisXx True, Onision is notoriously over-opinionated.

  • Follow your bliss.

  • Good video, another one that I don't hate.

    Sounds like advice I would probably give myself, straight forward, short, concise, and true. 

  • its kinda annoying how you say everything like a question....

  • @tsmetal it's the australian in him surfacing.

  • @iluvpurple911 no, the candadian

  • my mom says im special.........:)
