Brotherhood 2.0: May 16: Beating the EBO into the ground

[peerieweirdo]

This was posted on my 9th birthday. If only I had known about them then...

[LamanKnight]

Going to Canada sure sounds like fitting punishment for being evil, eh. :P

This whole video made me laugh, more than usual.

[quackquackquack49]

lol "reminds me of when they called me muffin" lolololol killed me....

[darkblackrose999]

I spy with my little eye... CITY OF BONES!!!

Yessssssss! Isn't it awesome?!?

Mortal Instruments for the freaking win!

[ToxicStarTheKilljoy]

Man, someone really needs to make a playlist of the EBO. So I have reference material in case I find a TARDIS.

I'll be right back.

[masonman1222]

watching them all!

[JilleyWillyNilly]

@masonman1222

It's been two months, and this is probably improper etiquette, or whatever, but I'm really curious:

Finished watching them yet?

[masonman1222]

@JilleyWillyNilly yup but after awhile i got tired of the youtube "you have written allot of comments recently can you please type these words." but yes iv watched them all

[lemonice2700]

That story about a teenager in the evil baby orphanage sounds amazing

[TheHyperTheory]

MICHIGAN!!!!!!! I DON'T LIVE THERE BUT IT'S MY FAVORITE STATE TO VISIT!!!!!!!!!!!

[sarahtheramenruler]

they called you muffin <3 .lolloololl

[hiimlizardbreath]

I almost burst out laughing today in my first criminal justice class when my professor was telling us not to use Wikipedia as a source.... and he said Wikeeeepedia

[JFriGuy]

Amsterdam is where it should be

[coolkyra10]

so technicaly hank is english woow

[Z00keeper54]

@coolkyra10 I'm pretty sure he meant Birmingham, Alabama.

[MsGetacar]

I would be afraid that evil babies would grow and still be evil. These evil adults would all be together in one place and plot to overthrow the entire world.

[Emzilla1000]

OhMyGosh. Pictures of the Yeti! PROOF... if only they weren't so goddamn blurry.

[LillianMoon]

I don't have a problem with movies that are different than the books they were based on as long as the movie is good. Film and literature are two entirely different mediums, and telling the exact same story in each rarely works out.

[AlexMote1995]

I just realized that the supervillain child-care compound I have been wanting to write about for years has been an EBO! OoO

[emsGotAProblem]

isnt it weird to think that if Hitler was really taken into an EBO, and the whole holocaust never happened? like what if there was really an EBO and it took some evil baby from the present and keep it from starting like World War 3...or maybe world war 3 already happened but we traveled back in time to get all the evil babies. i dont know, i kept thinking about this after i watched this.

[topcat3768]

But...but if you put the EBO in Canada, the evil babies will all learn to say "Wikeeeepdia"! :O

(Despite the fact that nobody here says "Wikeeeepdia"...)

[booknerd12345511]

@kikomechan i love cassandra clare one of my favorite authors ever

[shannonheart1]

He totally made those pictures blurry on purpose JUST so we couldn't see the Yeti when he showed them :(

[Kikomechan]

I see a City of Bones book in the background. Well done, good sir. And Nerdfighters, read Cassandra Clare's books! They're made of awesome!

[JessicarVroomVroom]

Haha, I would visit the EBO if it was in Canada.

But I've never heard someone here say weekeepeedia, just sayin

[rawrrar3]

if the looking for Alaska movie is nothing like the book im gonna be so mad!

[kiterunners2]

How is the Looking for Alaska movie going>

[FeastinFeaster]

@kiterunners2 there is no movie. they never made it.

[FunnySun10]

I have decided that I am going to write a novel about the Evil Baby Orphanage. Then, John and Hank will read it, and I shall be famous!

Maybe...if I ever get a laptop.

[Nani101]

I would be okay with the EBO being in Canada - hell, it can be in my basement suite - so long as John and Hank finally visit us.

[stinkyhamster111]

haha muffin lol

[pienkunicorn]

Wasn't EDO supposed to be in Tibet? Why did it move to Canada?

That's pretty awesome doing a collaborative project by vlog :D You guys are really dedicated.

[TrineG92]

Hey is this the first time the puff is mentioned?

[pienkunicorn]

@TrineG92 No that was a couple of videos back. (I'm trying to watch all the videos)

[nathan13x]

Oh dear =_= canadians are hating on yu O: :/

[VanDeHalde]

that's what yeti pictures are supposed to look like!

[twowordsJohnnyDepp]

:18 probably the best nerdfighter moment ever. John, you are the jokes.

[kingsbury96]

You lived in Michigan!!!

[wicketyspickety]

I really, really, want you to write a personal narrative about a teenage evil baby living at the evil baby orphanage.

[JessieLightyear]

@wicketyspickety than do it! I'm sure you're not the first NerdFighter to do it

[Abagfullofwhat]

What's with your Canada bashing?

[tree0child]

what's with the Canada bashing? we say wikipedia the same way you do

[artvandelay13]

Wait what??? I'm Canadian and I've never heard anyone say "Weekeepedia", except for my grandpa who has a German accent. And I can't think of any Canadian accent that would pronounce it like that....

[Vita1892]

Come on, what's with all the dissing of Canada in this video? Slightly disappointing John :(

[redred622]

hey i live in canada and i dond pronounce it wekepidia

[evesrandomness]

dont dis Canada

[TheDisco31]

BROKEN GOLF CLUB FTW!!!

[actsnubs11]

EBO - In Canada.

YES!

I will visit it often and be like a caretaker or something! (I live in Alberta Canada)

...and I also say Wikipedia like John.

[TheDisco31]

@actsnubs11 Ha ha I live in Prince Edward Island Canada XD But we are planning a trip to Edmonton for 2011... =D

DFTBA

[actsnubs11]

*sigh* P.E.I

I've never been to your lovely province, but out of all the ones I haven't been to your's is the one I want to go to the most.

Why are you coming to Edmonton?

[TheDisco31]

@actsnubs11 Ha ha :) It is great to visit P.E.I... But Living here is... not as good... Not a lot of good shopping here XD

We're coming to Edmonton because our uncle lives there... And cause' we want to see the West Edmonton Mall and possibly catch a good concert :D

Best Wishes!

[pyro5050]

[actsnubs11]

Oh?

Where are you from?

[pyro5050]

Cold Lake Alberta,

[Delrez21]

Hey John, I'm Canadian, and I say Wikipedia like you, as does everyone else here...

[Brokenpromise63]

can someone give me direct link to movie???

[Iheartdogdemons]

I say Wikipedia like you, John.

xD

[DedFysch]

I'm so so so so sick today I can't even type straight - I laughed, and then coughed, and then almost died when you said "distance photography."

DFTBA

[Lili7evans]

In Canada. Oh lord. xD

[CuddleKat]

I am seriously wondering what looking for alaska is about. Mainly because I am in alaska.

[Nemesais]

alaska is a person xD

[CuddleKat]

really? ah that makes sense then

[Iheartdogdemons]

xD Alaska is the name of a girl in the book.

xD

[CuddleKat]

haha I know now

[peoplecallmeagoth]

hey! i dont pronounce wikipedia like hank, i pronounce it like john, and im canadian.

:D just saying

[CKad777]

he has a job... he is an author. if you are too ignorant to know what that is, he writes books.

[Fatgoldfish4]

interesting observation, dirty skank....-_-

[vcav22]

do you mean you are setting the evil baby orphanage in canada???? YAY!

[XpsychotickissX]

[tvsuicide4]

Xo... I'm a terrible humanbeing... never trust me with babies of anykind...

[senorsqueakydesk]

"Muffin" lol

[localbs]

WI KI PIDIA!

CANADIANS DON"T SAY IT LIKE THAT!!!

not cool man..

[valerie2776]

It's creeper-ish of me that I know WHY Hank's screenname is brokengolfclub, I think. :(

[4windchimes]

why IS that his sn?

[FancyNewAmie]

Do tell! I wonder if that's still his screen name...

[valerie2776]

Search "how hank ate rat poison" on youtube...it's mentioned in a hilarious speech that was given at Hank and Katherine's wedding rehearsal dinner.

[joswhatsernameS2]

its even more creeper-ish that I actually added him to my buddy list. but I'm scared to IM him!!! lol

[maimiaa]

you guys, that IS really creeper-ish.

[joswhatsernameS2]

yeah i kind of figured...and he's always on! its wierd. i don't even know if its really him

[maimiaa]

yeah. you should IM. just to see. ahaha now who's being all creeperish?! xD

[joswhatsernameS2]

yeah my friend imed him once but he didn't answer

[maimiaa]

oh well that blows. \=

[killercow91]

Whats his IM!?

[joswhatsernameS2]

it says it in the video. brokengolfclub. but i didn't work when my friend IMed him. well...he didn't answere

[PinkDiva96]

hahahahaha this made me lol

[D3MP53Y14]

OMFG i have watched loads of his vids and who the fuck is hank!!!

[UnderOrangeTrees]

Hank is John's brother.

[valerie2776]

Yes, Hank is John's brother....as in vlogBROTHERs.

[GreenGirl32Jess]

Did anyone actually im him?

[MissTracyLord]

I tried to add him to my buddy list, but he just shows up on the list for a second and then disappears. =( LOL

[shelby21891]

Whenever you find out more about the Looking for Alaska/ Famous Last Words movie, could you make a video on it? I really want to audition for it since it's my favorite book. Keep up the amazing videos~

[chrislane535]

ansel adams

[cellcycle1]

oh is that City of Bones back there. oh how nice. i like that book.

[pardyanimal240]

No keep the EBO away from Canada! We don't want it, although we would probably be pretty good at raiseing those evil babies seeing how we are a peaceful country.

[Amiryfey]

lol

[frumpyframpton]

If that really is hank's screen name, he's been idle for nearly 10 hours as of right now. Seems like, as an ecogeek, he would have turned off his computer and not wasted so much energy. Same thing with him being online for over a day and not turned off at night.

[DittoFreak]

Comment 96:

Yeah I thought Hank said it funny too.

[laurizee]

TRY WIKIPEDIAING HANK GREEN NOW :)

[BarryAldridge]

I love the idea of EBO video project. I love this ideas so much. You lived in a lot of places John but Wiki-Keeey-Pedia awesome saying that.

[coolerthanusostopsta]

broken golf club?

[BeatlesFan51620]

Oh my god.

You just said "et cetera" like it's spelled, not "ek cetera" like so many people do.

You're my hero.

[equuslover22]

MUFFIN!

[amber847]

oh come on stop making fun of Canada! And I am not sure we want the ebo here... wasn't it supposed to be in tibet?

[JBluver994]

Yeah John um...You told us his screen name but not what messenger he uses! Lol COME ON JOHN! (=P)

[iLOVEturtles21]

wee-key-pedia!! Classic.

[dude33369]

did anyone try the screename?

[showersinger34]

my friend and i found a picture of a little baby who looked like umbridge. A perfect EBO candidate!

[StarAbbie]

broken golf club

[sgtpeppers10]

went on my buddy list within .04 seconds of john saying it. ahaaaaa... *is a creeper*

[BrowsofMithras]

have you talked to him?

[dawlfacex]

aww, muffin. <3

[readingwench]

Canada happens to be with john on the pronunciation of wikipedia...8)

[iUseFebreze]

I LIVE IN BIRMINGHAM

i live where a god lived

[JBluver994]

Lol john is a god?

[LolaG07]

But it is 3:00 am

[LolaG07]

John,

Seriously, your comments about your awesome pictures made me laugh so hard I couldn't breathe for about 10 seconds. That was great!

[omgfreakay]

:O I call my friend "Muffin" 'cuz of his little afro.

coincidence?

[ricepaperzen]

oi! muffin was MY nickname!

[JustHere2watch]

FAMOUS LAST WORDS.

f`real? I would love to watch the movie, but some books shouldn't be made into movies.

I loved reading Looking For Alaska.

[mcflyloveme]

is the film coming out yet?

[iluvicedtea]

it says on wikipedia that it's coming out some time in 2008...

[marijanie333]

and its 2008...jeez, sure wish they'd hurry up! : )

[halobattle360]

wow compared to ur most recent video thats alot of puff!

[emilyann2170]

i like your Lacoste shirt.

[omgmt19]

is there something wrong with living in Canada? cuz if there is someone's gotta tell me cuz im Canadian! lol XD

aha and niice photography :)

[omgfreakay]

nothing's wrong with living in good ol' Canada if we're gonna bring evil babies here!

Canadian Nerdfighters! HOO HA!

[kakashiwithoutmask]

amaaaaazing photography john.

just perfect.

[silverwing2332]

amazing photos, the clarity is just perfect. Is it just me or does it seem like the clarity of the picture is inversely proportional to the importance of the situation. I get clear shots of mountains and birds or whatever, yet if I snap a picture of my sister's graduation, nothing!

[kakashiwithoutmask]

that totally happens to me too...

and it annoys me greatly...

[LiLPunkN]

Hey...MY name is Brooke...I know...random

[spendiferouslochness]

lol whats with the Canada referances??

[lainieinsaney]

pre-pubescent evil babies.

that kind of scares me, all the evil angst.

[StripedRedScarves]

O.O

that would be SCARYY

[emmazingxx]

Okay, you've got to answer me this, John.

What is weirder?

A. That I added Hank onto my buddy list and didn't I.M. him.... or

B. That I have, since this video was posted, been drafting in my head what my conversation with him would be like

[robinheil]

you don't have to repeat it.

[sportynspunky78]

Don't worry. I have admittedly done both too. :)

[El6]

Professional distance photography!!!!!!!!

[diabolowho]

tibet not canada!

[MagicGiraffe]

WEEKEE all the way.

[Selene147]

I just noticed something. You have City of Bones on the bookshelf. I didn't even know that was released by last May, I thought it didn't come out until after HP7. Huh. I'll probably look into reading An Abundance of Katherines after I finish City of Bones, which is probably why I noticed it... um, yeah. I shut up now.

[Selene147]

Yay for Michigan-ness! Woot!

[GeddyYeti2112]

I finished Looking For Alaska today, and it was amazing.

[pinkstarcloud]

I did too! I really enjoyed it. I'm half way done with the Kathrines book too.

[pkalvyn]

"Come on Hank, This Isn't Canada.."

Ahahhahaha

[saywhhaaatttt]

Confession- I didn't read Looking for Alaska for a while because I thought it was some story of eskimos living on an ice block. I do remember reading the inside flap and still refusing to read it based on previous disposition to it. Though that's what happened with my other favorite book, too, so many it's a sign? But now when I don't want to read a book I will because I'll think it's good, and then my rule won't work anymore! *headdesk*

[Trudeau1031]

I LIVE IN MI!

[harrypotterfan0]

MUFFIN!

[mrpiggyfans]

whoaaa hank is online lol

[wtfxlawlz]

Makes me wonder how many people actually typed in the screen name and typed things into the IM box, but didn't actually send them...or just checks their buddy list every five seconds.

That's a little...creepy.

*dodgy*

[SunFire1051]

lol... oh, so John is the older brother

[MrsTomFelton531]

I want to see what the yeti looks like, lol.

[papplegrassbracelet]

this is still one of my favorites, for sure. the puff factor... the distance photography. killer. rock on nerdfighter!

[regularguy5mb]

You must have been buzzing like a hummingbird when you snapped those pictures. Less caffeine for you.

[RememberTheTrees]

i love how happy you are when you tell everyone hanks screen name :P

[Nanosauromo]

"Evil Baby Orphanage" would make an awesome movie.

[horsewhisperer990]

distance photography? lol.

[hopeforrain]

Wow.

Evil baby from the past?

Hardcore, man.

[mach7mach10]

Alright, I know that posting a comment on a block that's like, three months old is totally not jokes... but seriously... 2 jokes at Canada's exspence in a single blog?! Look, I'm soooo mad I'm making spelling errors!

[thatssplendid]

My mom is obsessed with Ansel Adams. She's a photographer. When I was younger I though photographer meant graphing stocks on photo paper. no clue why.

[kushya]

i suddenly feel like eating a muffin...

i wonder why...

[omgfreakay]

I don't know if anyone mentioned it, BUT all the money that you get from the book should go to the DECREASE WORLD SUCK FUND! YEEAAHHH!! Also, if we put tons of evil babies in ONE place, wouldn't the level of Evil come to an all time maximum? THey could all have evil ideas which would being SO evil toether, god knows what they could do. And once they leave the EBO, their evilness will affect the world and the Suck Level would be "Apocalyptic" . Think about it.

[bananas1and2]

Yay for that book! I finished it today. Sweetness.

[flyingace1203]

Tibet is better i agree

[Kupo923]

Hank actually pronounced "wiki" correctly. It's Hawaiian, meaning "quick." =]

[lili4trees]

haha, muffin?

:)

I love these videos. Lovin' the pictures too.

[SissyLynnProductions]

lol muffin. im likin it. but heres the flaw in the baby plan....what if a nerdfighters is related to one of the evil babies and was born after that evil baby...would it make them disappear (the nerdfighter) if we took the evil baby? that thought just occured to me. -heather lynn

[LeftyHandedGuns]

They called you 'muffin'? That makes you puff-muffin. XD. Aw, all the stabs at Canada.

[pshhhiloveyou]

And is this true? Are you really THE John Green??? Because If so, Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines are the two best books I own and I am absolutely in love with your books!!!! And I'm sorry about yelling about the title, but i was initially very angry.

[pshhhiloveyou]

WHY ARE THEY CHANGING THE TITLE!????!!? IM ANGRY!!!! That is the glory of it! ITS A FABULOUS TITLE, JOHN!

[lzh234]

who are the main characters?

What is the orphanage like?

Do everybody fear them?

Perhaps you need a fictional bad guy to lead this story through the various evil babies.

WHAT IS THE STORY GONNA BE ABOUT???

IS IT SAD, COMEDY, GRAPHIC???

also what actor would you suggest play...er...was it Pudge, the protagonist???

[namlhots]

Dang, I was hoping it was a movie about mountaineering!

[WowziePants]

dood, i already knew his screen name because i'm all nerd fighter awesome and have connections and actually KNOW hank :D

[musicalnames]

i think tibet is way better than canada.
