  • Great performance!

  • verry covincing going mad!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I love this! Thanks for the biggest laugh I have had all week!

  • What the fuck goes through peoples minds to actually bother to do things like this, I feel ashamed at myself for watching that

  • these things happened to me before but not about a video vlog, it could have been anything with me

  • lmao i thought it was funny

  • GRIP

  • ???WTF??? You make no sense

  • I was not so much concerned about how people with schizophrenia would take this title and performance, more about the concern that people that already have prejudices would view this as an affirmation of their misguided beliefs.

  • You actually think you have the right to criticize a free expression based on what you THINK someone who already THINKS something, MAY or MAY NOT think after they watch it. If you've studied psychology (especially to be some sort of thearpist) you've got to know that kind of thinking is assumptive. You DON'T KNOW what people will or won't see in this video. Why don't you just admit the video ticks something off in you, and you're trying to make it something that sounds loftier than that.

  • If that makes you happy :-)

  • Please read the entire thread before passing your own judgements; I have said that my original response changed and I was open to education of the thought processes involved in the creative process. However, not as a judgement of the artist, just the original title, I expressed concern that it could be misconstrued - and that is all.

  • lol That was pretty funny,..i still have no clue which one is right tho

  • lmfao , i didnt mean to laugh i do feel sorry for him lol

  • he is a fucking fool

  • I like your acting and the response that your video work (or whatever name suits best) has spawned.

    Most of these people seem quite eloquent and full of insight.

  • GUYS come on! Its called acting

    Do you really think in programmes where they cover mental illnesses they feel they have to get a person with an actual mental illness just so they dont cause offence? No, of course they bloody dont, and the fact of the matter is, no one would mind if they saw that on television, the fact that its a guy who made the script, editted the video and posted it online all by himself somehow makes it offensive? How about think how much of a talented actor he is!

  • blog, vlog, bog dog who gives a damn i would to think a man with your obvious talents would concentrate on the more important issue's. the guy is sane, its the world thats mad you understand.

  • You've got a brilliant point.

  • Good acting

  • Well... am I save saying THIS was not a vlog? ;)

    Good acting btw. :)

  • great performance

    love it

    like the outfit

  • Brazilian Girls - Don't Stop: Live In NYC/ Anamorphic

  • well looked like a guy I saw smoking crack

  • Quite good.

  • gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

  • This is what happens after you've watched 100,000 video's :D

  • what has this got to do with the video vloggaphrenia?

  • Congrats on the feature...well DESERVED!

  • nuttyfucker or wot lolol

  • lol wtf? reread your own posts in past comment pages and you will see the word nigger posted about 10 times

  • lol, we vlog!

  • absolutely bloody brilliant pseudo nutcase. love it. by the way captured insanity to a tee. if u aint employed in the industry then theres something wrong with the industry.

  • I'd imagine the reason he's in there is due to his obsession with the definition of VLog's. We pick it up as the CCTV captures his continued internal struggle with his unseen tormentor.

    Am I close?

  • You got that exactly right. Cool. If fact I think I made a mistake by giving this a title that made it seem like it was about mental illness. That's why people are freaking out. It was supposed to be more like a P.O.W. kind of situation. Of course then people would accuse of mocking America POWs.

  • I am glad that you see the title is the thing that causes offense and I see that you have changed it accordingly, however, if you changed it to cause less offense you changed it incorrectly:

    The prefix SCHIZ means split, which from the content of your video, seems to be the thought process;

    Whereas, the suffix PHRENIA means mental illness, so you have kept the illness part in...

    Just a thought...

  • That's an astute point Kpuctuah71, but a little too astute. Most people don't responsed to "phrenia" but rather a knee-jerk reaction to to "schizo" - you know what I mean?

    People use that as a nasty put down -ie-

    "he's schizo!" "fucking schizo!" It, for most people replaces "crazy". I guarantee you that the average person doesn't call some "schizo" meaning "oh, he's "split" -- fucking guy is a "split" But thanks for the imput.

  • But I just saw your previous condemning comment from a couple of days ago. I didn't realize you were the same person. What I really question is why people who feel such strong righteous condemnation of me like yourself and Joannepsi continue to click on the video and leave comments (in the case of Joannepsi, multiple comments). It seems to be somewhat hypocritical to take such a hard judgmental stance and view the video at all.

  • I re-viewed after seeing that you changed your video name, and then re-posted after seeing your explanation - I am open-minded to being educated to your thought processes - I work with people with schizophrenia - hence my original post, I was not trying to be judgemental, just highlight that in an arena where people with mental health issues have challenges to face that a video that appeared at first to ridicule their condition was detrimental...

  • Fair enough. And I thank you. What's interesting, though, is that the feed-back that I got from friends and/or acquaintances, both in my real life and in these virtual communities I'm in, who actually suffer from various conditions was that they didn't find it offensive at all.

  • The reason I put the "Trigger" warning is because one person who cycles told me that for her - she loved the video but it's good to have a "trigger" warning because then she can make the choice as whether at this time she feels like watching something. She said that when she is aware of the possiblity that it "could" trigger something then she is able to watch it with awareness. It's only when she is taken by surprise sometimes that it can be bad.

  • But that aside it was interesting that none of these people watched and thought the "intention" of the maker was to "demean" them. The only people who left posts like that are people who "work" in the field. Which is just an interesting point. And also, by the way, not everyone I know who works in field felt that. Not that I'm suggesting you were shouldn't at all. I'm just saying it's a much wider berth than the original response seemed to take in.

  • I appreciate that people with the condition and also people working in the 'field' might not take offense, however, it is comments like JOEKSMIF makes that there is no place in society for people with mental illness, which worried me and potentially anything that propagates that kind of response is how I can see that this could be detrimental...

  • In all due respect, you said earlier that you were open minded, if people like JOEKSMIF are who you're basing your ideology on I think you really might need to open it a further, a little deeper, a little more clear.

  • You don't have to justify yourself to self important politically correct crusaders. In almost all but the most violent and destructive cases mental illness is a relative term relating to how others see the world in relation to you.

  • People that stand up for others are not politically correct crusaders; they're humane. An illness by definition is destructive and does not have to be violent to be considered so...

  • I never said I was basing my ideology on any comments on here period, I was saying that people that already have a negative view point on mental illness could miscontrue your message and use it to justify their beliefs.

  • People that are bigots don't need to "mistconstrue" anything to justify their beliefs.

  • No, they do, they do and I'm responsible for it. See Cleverreason, they think and feel nasty things about certain people (proably all thier lives) but now when they see this video they suddenly think and feel "really" nasty things. As oppose just the nasty things they thought and felt before.

  • Thank you that was all I was trying to say

  • I think you're "misconstruing" the obvious sarcasm in Xelandethomas's answer, dude, I don't think he agrees with you.

  • I think you should let him answer, not assume for him. Every other comment has been directive, you obviously choose to miss his directive to you...

  • Well actually he was spot on. I guess that's really further proof that you don't get my satiric humour at all, my bad. I couldn't possibly disagree with your position more. That someone, for example lets say a bigot toward Muslims, see a video that is a satire on a certain subject - the character happens to be Muslim or seems to be, although the video isnt' really about Muslims.

  • Your position is that our bigoted friend "might" see that as affriming his beliefs and therefore that video should be silenced. It has no place to exist in society because this guy might see it as supporting his racist views. This flawed in a couple of crucial areas. (cont.)

  • 1. This person doesn't need to miscontrue anything to hold his view. If this same person sees a video about Muslims worshipping or about Muslims shopping he is still going see them through his already held racist view. Not to mention the fact that you are not a mind reader and can only guess what any given person will or will not see in a video (just as Cleverreason said). And lastly...So what? Because there are ingorant bigot is no reason to condmen art or self expression

  • Frankly, my friend, I was more with you when I thought you solely taking up the cause it might offend people with mental illness. But when you said that you weren't so concerned about that (after I somewhat dispelled it by telling of the people I actually know who aren't offended) and that your concern is that some bigot would turn into more of bigot if he saw it...well, that's just absurd.

  • shall up

  • gota check out this new reggae singer from london

  • hahaha 'IM SHARING MY EMOTIONS'.. i like, i like

  • Dud ur nuts.I don't have this kind of confusion, I don't even think about that.

  • I must say..."I DO AGREE WITH YOU"....Good point....

  • This guy thinks he's a talented actor and this will lead to his big break......don't give up the day job...if you have one

  • i dont get how this is funny

    he jus says the same thing over and over lol

  • This video is more the interned than a schizophrenic, I think it is a great acting out video but do not believe that people with mental health usually behave this way.

    Duncan

  • Well that's amazing that you say Duncan, because my idea was that this was like guy being held in one those torture chambers being watched on cctv - that's who he's talking to when he looks at the camera. And he's been slowly driven to behave that way. I've admitted that it was a mistake to title it thus because it's buzz word for people

  • I think its a padded cell, yes they probably have those.

    I think a breakdown might be like this but more personal, very good

  • And the list goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on...

    Some of the most creative minds in the history of the human race suffered with mental illness.

    Some of the most important artists etc..

    (Suck on that!)

  • Celebrities with mental illnesses.

    # Lionel Aldridge - Superbowl-winning Football Player

    # Peter Green, Guitarist for the band Fleetwood Mac

    Grape (and Jefferson Airplane for Skip Spence)

    # Roger Kynard "Roky" Erickson, of the Austin-based 1960's group TheThirteenth Floor Elevators

    # Joe Meek - 1960's British record producer

    # Charles "Buddy" Bolden - Jazz Musician

    # Jack Kerouac, Author, was diagnosed with Schizophrenia

  • "The mentally ill are nothing but a waste of resources." ????? (What the hell?)

    Sometimes I wonder if the mentally ill are actually the sane, and the sane are actually the ones that have an imbalance.(Great video performance by the way Xelanderthomas, your a star. 5*****)

  • This guy is better than most Hollywood actors...he needs an agent!

  • What an incredibly powerful performance. If this were in a movie you'd get a damned Oscar! I'm serious man you are INCREDIBLE in this performance! WOW is all I can say.

  • Love ya Man.... Pappy mumbled it...

  • LOL!!!!

  • Very well put,only a person with an above average IQ would have thought of making this type of ............Vlog....video..dia­logue.....aaarrrrrrrrggggggggg­g. 5 stars.

  • pure unadultererated horse-wank

  • Brilliant. :)

  • you lost me after I noticed all the spelling mistakes. 0/5

  • "Now I lay me down to sleep, I hope that YouTube calls their peeps. If I die before they do, would someone please review this dude?" LOL Just enjoying this again, but with my niece this time. We both love it. Bravo Xelander!

  • o dear god! crack for breakfast....again?

    jus playin this was great!

  • he has a bad case

  • LMAO I had to come back to this one. Your best video yet...seriously. hahahaha

  • lolololol

  • Hi Xela! As always--how you express yourself and your thoughts is so very engaging. You are the master! Oh I wish I could travel and be apart of the British Isles' Fan Club, and to have seen you in On The Waterfront!! Much love to you (and for your vlogs!) xoxo ME!

  • I fail to understand the reason for so much arguments/anger of a simple use of a phrase. Do people not have anything else to find that would better served for their attention? I say to each his/her own. If you feel comfortable using this phrase then by all means use it. If it's not what you want then don't use it. Or am I missing something in the argument? Vlog?? How about Vovie for Vodeo Movie

  • Oink! :)

  • awesome vid, fabulous work!

  • I missed a word. I meant to say I'm all PSYCHED up for your NEXT, CRAZY vid, vlog, etc... I guess I'm absent-MINDED.

  • Some people lack a sense of irony. They might have ISSUES they are DEPRESSED about. Really, Xelander, don't let some of these comments get on your NERVES. I'm already PSYCHED up for your CRAZY vid, vlog, bit, episode, whatever. (I hope I don't sound like a LOON.)

  • I would suggest that you disable comments, but that wouldn't suit you at all. It is obvious you are an attention seeking prick.

    Shame i can't give this zero *!

  • Most people allow comments on video as part of the freespeech expression on youtube.

    Leaving a comment on a video you hate...? You seem like the attention seeking prick.

  • surely the 'freespeech expression' relates to negative comments too?! It'd be slightly contradictory if it didn't. When one witnesses such a sad individual, one can't help but comment. It's pathetic to see.

  • Wow, a person leaving videos on an internet site viewed by 10s of millions a day is attention seeking...

    the perceptive mind ever amazes me.

  • Cock!!

  • jesus, some people have got too much time on their hands.

  • wot a load of shite

  • It's a video journal - a vournal - no, it's a video diary - a viary - no, a dideo - a dadio - a cool dadio - a vidcoolio - a voolio - no, vlio - no, vlogo - or, how about ... vlog? No, that'll only cause confusion.

  • im the number 1...ok??

  • This cracks me up, no, yes, it's not funny, it's', it's, insane, ok, it's provocative, but funny, but insensitive to insanity, no it's just ridiculous, ridiculously outrageous, outrageously insane, insanely funny, yet still somewhat delicious, deliciously intoxicating, intoxicatingly insane, but still funny, in an insane sane-ish kinda of way, I'm hungry, this is cruel and unusual, but funny, a little bit like pot roast....

    Nice job! You remind me of Forrest Whittaker (spell?)

  • Closet actor...

  • . . . lol, sooooo funny

  • You people are pathetic you clearly get some kind of sick rush from making vulnerable people feel scared and upset

  • Who's scared? Who are these imaginary people watching this being scared and upset I don't get it? Are you scared? boo

  • like I said pathetic, my nan is an actual mental case and she would be way upset if she knew ppl like you were taking the mick

  • she'd be upset to know people were taking the mic, when, you, her own grandchild calls her a mental case! You make a very valid point my love....ahem

  • Why are people praising this guy?! I fail to understand how someone can find amusement in something with rules the lives of REAl people. I work with those suffering from mental health issues everyday, and i am disgusted at this video. It's low, degrading and serves no purpose, apart from mockery and intimidation. It is because of people like yourselves, that our society today is so narrow-minded and naiive to the fullest sense. what a shame...

  • Who the fuck is it intimidating? Intimidating? And the only people it mocks are vlogging nazis with all there vlogging rules.

  • what?! do u even know what ur saying?!!! coz i don't think u do. ur comment has just proven my point. thank u very much.

    how pathetic.

  • how odd that you added this video to your favourites? This video is satire. I grew up with mental illenss in my family and we still deal with it on a daily basis, so I did more than "work" with "them".

    By the way, "they" also have a sense of humour.

  • LeSaMilano, thank you so much for pointing that out. I have had several friends who cycle and take medications and I had a girlfriend once who cycled. She was/is an incredibly creative, talented, sharp witted theatrical artist and loves edgy, cagey work and I'm sure would dig this. She is NOT a self-unaware idiot who has to be protected by some social worker.

  • exactly - and you said it better than me :)

    *sulks* lol

  • You are speaking of yourself, don't you? Because everybody who says what you just wrote should be put in prison. I am civilized but your comment is beyond disgusting.

  • >> You are speaking of yourself, don't you? Because everybody who says what you just wrote should be put in prison. I am civilized but your comment is beyond disgusting.

    I'm incredibly civilized. The company I own makes the machetes that kill ALL those Africans you see TV.

    By making the weapons that facilitate the genocide of Africans I am doing the world a great deed.

    Someday they will erect a statue of me.

  • Wow you're fucked up. Im not black but you need to use one of those weapons to kill yourself.

  • Please cunt you look like the type (braindead slut) that would suck me off for a diamond ring.

  • Hahaha Im a law student...therefore I cant possibly be braindead...I`d be in a coma!!! And how does a `braindead slut slut around....like in Kill Bill I guess when the amale nurse lets guys into the room to fuck`Uma Thurman....but that aint being a slut thats being a victim so therefore you`re little insult is senseless...I look like the type eh...cos im pretty and you could never get with me....id suck u off tough guy and let u bust in my mouth just to spit it back in your face...your pathetic

  • Why the hell do u keep posting back to this page saying black people are bad...you would be surprised how much black you were and ur not civilised. Humans killing humans are not civilised they are unstable...judging by your additude i think u should be the one mumbling about who knows what, wearing a shirt saying "if you threw me off a cliff no1 would miss me", and be locked up in a padded cell where you cannot hurt yourself and others

  • I didn't say Africans were bad, I just said I make immense profit by killing them.

  • >The mentally ill are nothing but a waste of

    >resources.

    >

    This video is not about mental disease, it is about video-blogging, read its presentation and listen to it. So, you are a useless asshole who trolls web sites with nazi-fascist sub-ideas. You are wasting network band, computer CPU, disk space, our time and our world. YOU should be euthanized.

  • mouhPk8: Are you speaking about yourself? If so, I agree. If not, I disagree. You give humanity a bad name.

  • mouhPk8: would you care to be cremated or iterred after your euthanization? Oh wait - you're probably not in sound mind to be able to make that determination. :/

  • LeSaMilano, thank you so much for pointing that out. I have had several friends who cycle and take medications and I had a girlfriend once who cycled.
