Brotherhood 2.0: April 30: Hellos from Los Angeles

[thewolffromhell66666]

well good for her she deserves it better luck next time

[StalkingMrJoel]

i liked that book, so i named my dog after it.....

[WTBman2011]

The key of awesome!

[darkblackrose999]

Hahaha. The key of awesome

[DragonsAreBetter]

The first Key of Awesome video by barely political was uploaded in October 2009, was the name inspired by the Helen Hunt song being sung in the key of awesome? :P

[JustCallMe253]

No Helen Hunt song = No Song Wednesday.

No Song Wednesday = No Accio Deathly Hallows

No Accio Deathly Hallows = No popularity for Vlogbrothers

No popularity for Vlogbrothers = probably not enough people for a Project For Awesome.

No Project For Awesome = Possibly no more Vlogbrothers videos after 2007. ("A funny thing we realized while we wrote this song...awesome people got together to do awesome things.")

Helen HUnt is responsible for present-day Nerdfighteria!

[masonman1222]

watching them all!

[seriouslythisisjust]

I love Francesca Lia Block too!! the Weetzie Bat books are my favourites of hers

[LexiTheShortOne]

THE KEY OF AWESOME. THE. KEY. OF. AWESOME.

Is mark douglas a nerdfighter who once made the pilgramage through Old Videos once? Dear God I hope so.

[123longlive]

oh. mygod. did john invent the name "KEY OF AWESOME" ???

[TheJessicaAnthony]

@123longlive wondering the same thing

[26Staples]

NANNY NANNY RICH KID. FUNNY DOG!

[ninjanerd98]

Barelypolitical reference before it even exsisted!

[anmlsrcute]

The Helen Hunt song was sooo stuck in my head also...

[JustSomeGinger]

wait did john accidentally name barley political's parody show at 2:27. nerdfighters FTW

[NuiPK]

The woman at 0:31 looks like Kirk Acevedo. A lot. My jaw was hanging open in a grimace of joy.

It's kind of sexy.

[yohanne14]

funny dog!

[alicia0950]

That poor dog...

[TheGangsterOfLove95]

the key of awesome? barelypolitical? coincidence? I think not!

[DukeofYar]

What's even funnier than the dog, is the woman holding the dog.

[Aendrix]

now we know where barelypolitical stole that name :)

[ClocksInMyPlace]

"...because it seems to have been written in the key of awesome." XD

[Chocohall]

That is not fair to put Octavian Nothing up against an Abundance of Katherines- I love both books!

[JokerCrowe]

*hmm* I think Francesca Lia Block just made my "Guilt free Three" too. :)

[TheAcademyGirls]

who was the one eating the fruit salad?

[awatroba]

@TheAcademyGirls T. Cooper

[an0nim0u51]

The birth of song wednesdays!

[Ikaruszaki]

19th century plantation owner :D

[YamiChippy]

"...more songs. LOTS more!"

Oh, if only he had known what he just started.

[whateverisright48]

The Yeti has a really nice sounding voice. I wish she came on a video so I could match the voice to a face. It's driving me crazy!

[keerak]

Am I weird for thinking the owner was funnier than the dog?

[peoplecallmeagoth]

"Seems to be written in the key of awesome..."

xD best part.

You rock my socks, John Green.

[JustAPrayer]

I am 100% jealous. You met Franchesca Lia Block. You rule!

[erinaceous]

Yes, Hank sure did write that song in the key of awesome. :)

And John, you definitely should have won an award for your massive sneaky video recording skills!

I definitely laughed at your "seems to be married to a 19th century plantation owner" description. :D

But, poor dog... whenever I see dressed up chihuahuas, I think: I know that they're not the cutest or prettiest dogs out there but seriously, must you dress them up in a sad pathetic attempt to make them look better?

[BarryAldridge]

The Helen Hunt is so awesome. I love the footage from The Times festival thing in LA. You are truly awesome John. Ah the start of Hanks songs is born yeah.

[eeried2]

19th century plantation owner! Yes!

[dude33369]

[zrg48]

[mydearheidi]

FrancescA lia Block is my favorite author Ever! I have like almost ALL of her books! Awesome.

[MollyOmigosh]

I can ONLY sing in the key of awesome. lol!

[ohadelaide]

YOU MISSPELLED COMMUNICATION.

[air1cat]

[Sloppyjoemess]

[blucollargrl]

Thank you for the best dog footage I've seen in a long time!....I need a new hobby...

[ButtaflyGirlzInc]

The Helen Hunt song burned a hole in my brain, too!!!

[singmethecure]

AHHHHH!!! FRANCESCA LIA BLOCK!! i love her so much!!

[air1cat]

the end is hilarious!

[silverwing2332]

"written in the key of awesome" that reduced me to a fit of uncontrollable giggles, well done. Now I've gotta go listen to the helen hunt song again!

[kirbymoe]

I FORGOT ABOUT THAT DOG!!!!! LMAO

[VirgoVixen9]

Can you help me get a signed book by her??? I love her! And a signed copy of an Abundance of Katherines- and a signed nerdfighter tee by Hank and John :) lol God you GUYS ROCK

[mindlessnel]

O.O I love Francesca Lia Block! I read 5 of her books in one sitting because they were that awesome! I couldn't stop!

[spikedanstudded]

Francesca Lia Block wrote my favorite book, and for that, I deem this video Legit.

[pkalvyn]

4 Monthes down.

[xweirdsister1x]

"it's a chihuahua that seems to be married to a 19th century planation owner!" ROTFL!!!

[Emi183]

@xweirdsister1x I'd say that normal people say ROFL, but then again you watch these videos (i'm just asuming you're a nerdfighter :P) so you're AWESOME, and AWESOME people say ROTFL

[xweirdsister1x]

@Emi183 thank you for the compliment! you are very awesome b/c your comment made me wonder what I had said to deserve a reply, and so I came back to this video and saw that I had a highest rated comment! so thank you! DFTBA :)

[Emi183]

@xweirdsister1x Hahahaa, i'm glad i made you notice you have a cool comment :)

DFTBA

[regularguy5mb]

If there is an album of Brotherhood 2.0 songs made, John just suggested the title:

Songs in the Key of Awesome!

[bixitblue]

I love weetzie bat ^^

[sn4kp4k]

know what's funnier than dogs in La? a dog... in my pants

[Tika116]

haha! yes! even though the 'in my pants' jokes are kind of officially been labeled a cliche now, it's still kind of funny. knid of.

[kiyoshi85]

too much info!!! > . >;;;

[horsewhisperer990]

yay

[bloodredeyes21]

The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing one of my favorite books ever!

[Espiriteus]

That poor dog. I really hate it when people dress up their animals.

[LionHeart28]

well, when they get rid of what little self esteem the dogs have left, that bad. BUt in the case of myself and my Pure bred Shih tzu who is scratching his fur away, making him wear little dog pajamas both keeps ythe little guy warm and keeps him from making his condition worse :P

[thekittykat79]

Offically finished watching Jan - April videos now. . . Do I need a new hobby? . . . hmmmm. . . .

[2dazlious]

So did I! And no of course not! just go on with the rest!!

[kushya]

that chihuahua is soo fat!

[specialneon]

Tiny dogs = not awesome.

Dogs in clothing = Ashli feeling horrible for them.

[wickedgirl182]

i like chihuahuas xD

[AntiBarbie22]

Lmao. I always felt bad for those dogs...

[YelloHippo]

Oh mah God, I really liked The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing...sorry an abundance of Katherines didn't win.

[goonieschick3]

hahaha! the dog that's married to a plantation :)

[irishpervert]

lol the key of awesome

[lili4trees]

haha :D

[batkitty357]

OMG i love weetzie bat!!! that is so awsome!!!

[UsagiOhkami]

I can't get Accio Deathly Hallows out of my head...and I am feeling very blessed that I've only been to that particular city a couple of times and have not seen many dogs like that...California rocks, but can sometimes be scary

[kwakhed23]

i think the term "dog" definitely needs quotes for most specimens in l.a. -- if it can fit in your wallet, i don't think it should qualify as a dog.

[lagreen2]

dear john and hank, you guys are hysterical

PS: john you are the greatest auther that has evr hit the earth

[surrealisticpill]

yes, more songs from hank please!

[turles101]

Sorry to here the that you didn't get the win but i second the notion on the songs :)
