A life on Facebook

[ravenhowler]

I clicked on this video because i thought there couldnt be a life on facebook

[blakshadow5]

Alex Droner sure goes to Las Vegas a lot.

[Thecheif71]

He forgot m/d/y at the begining of the video...

[JamesisAwesome98]

What life?

[carpediematlas]

awesome!

[gumdropsarenasty]

not only was this bullshit, i'm now seriously considering switching to an alternative science mag. good job guys!

[kleinebudde]

What's the surfy song?

[ArcadeGames]

That girl he was poking was actually a guy...

[ILoveYaFace]

I like how it blurs out  Stupid fucking headache, then for half a second during the switch it unblurs.

[azwan1992]

intradasting

[MOD853]

i find this hard to masturbate to...

[IdaSputum]

His 'relationships' are not shallow at all are they? 'DRONER'??? How OBVIOUS is this appeal for more brainless DRONES? Fuckng SLAVEBOOK

[2xProD]

so he married a girl he met on facebook?

LOL WUT

[GlennBate]

"There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable" < What is this?

[oilers1go1]

Please switch your channel name to "AdSpaceAndNonsense" so we don't waste our time here... when you upload a video of a new Samsung cellphone like it's Science, or promote Facebook (PS "time-lapse" videos can fuck off, oh you grew a beard over a year and made an artsy video of your daily photos? Put it on Newscientistvideo!)... Jumping star illusion! So Scientific! When I was young I watched Popular Mechanics For Kids and it was 1000x more Science based... And the girl was sexy.

[JoseLeng93]

Didn't your mother tell you not to poke strangers over the Internet?

[TheVertification]

At 1:52 they're just repeating the same thing over and over, and it doesn't even make any sense D:

[fumfulapenguin]

why the hell is this on newscientist?

[TheTechnoVikings]

Pause at 1:50 and read closely what they say to eachother xD

[cmyanmar13]

The hell is this rubbish?

[88Tomm88]

Hahahahahahaha epic xD

[jeebersjumpincryst]

poor old new scientist channel-its taking an utter beating; nay-a THRASHING,in its comments section lately.and it couldnt be more well deserved.they seem to post 49 second clips of shit,and stupid ads to lure people to another site.people are on youtube and not other sites,cause they like yt.if new scientist is not going to use youtube properly,then they should just fuck off,instead of damaging the reputation of an awesome magazine,which is also called new scientist.BOTH thumbs DOWN,N.S Channel!

[Blubbe5k]

this is stolen

[planetsareoverrated]

Nice censoring job at :42

[Hypernerdwithcam]

I think this video is pretty sad :(

[N3XMILLIONAIRE]

this is fake, when he joins facebook it has the same interface as a couple years later when ge gets married and has children. But still its directed by some other guy so i guess its not supposed to be real.

[Horspel]

@N3XMILLIONAIRE

OH WOW YOU FIGURED THAT OUT

[sukablianah2]

I saw this already. Since when science channel steals non-scientific videos from other channels?

[Kyoxruler]

At 1:28 it says 'Diana Houston' poked him, but when he pokes back it says: You are about to poke Helene. Honest mistake :D

[iSewil]

Facebook sucks.

[crillebatong]

He olny had 3 girls in hes whole life xD

[N4m3z0rz]

@crillebatong I find that kinda normal lol. Unless you're a faggot, because then you might have boyfriends instead.

[Alphapointer]

Why so many dislikes?

[ManlyMcBuff]

thats pretty cool.

[flodde1]

everything started with a poke

[Sm0keddhany]

You just stole this video and changed its music? faggots do something by ur own

[adj789]

Why is this video here!?

[FutileFreak]

How fucking stupid of me... i was actually expecting new scientific videos when i subscribed to this channel.

*unsubscribes*

[aznsketcher]

I liked the video, but I've no idea how this is science related.....social science? maybe?

[DoeBoi2525]

Now share this on facebook ... Hahahaha

[RoffeDH]

I don't get what it has to do with NewScienteist. But I sure liked the video... I almost cried at the end when you realize he's dead.

[1RadicalOne]

What the hell is disgracebook garbage doing on what is SUPPOSED to be a SCIENCE channel?

[HoNwhitefenix]

@1RadicalOne It's a cool video. Get over yourself.

[Kinglushkush]

@1RadicalOne

Cause wether we like it or not, Facebook is taking over the web.

[yatah]

'There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable.'

That's the best pickup line EVER.

[LadyDinz23]

[rock0236]

Facebook propaganda on NSV..........LoL!!!!!

[kravenraze]

If this is sience, the humanety is f'd.

[MelCartman]

I just clicked this to vote down..

[patilsaurabhr]

I have seen this video somewhere before, newscientist.

[oqal]

[szasz85b]

Hey NewScientist have you guys ever heard of this new technology ? its call High Definition !

[1acroyear1]

Okay, it took me 48 seconds to decide this vid is bullshit. Should I keep watching or is it really a waste of time?

[zhen95zhou]

"There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour or randomised words which don't even slightly believable"

this phrase keep repeating on 1:50...

[Ou8y2k2]

Facebook - empiricism for idiots.

[Pigboy501]

so you end up getting married to someone if you poke them too many times? *sigh* the mysteries of facebook...

[1acroyear1]

@Pigboy501 Only if you forget to use a condom.

[plavins1]

the new science is called Facebookology

[Zormac]

What is this shit?

[lowdusk]

this is creepy...

[s0ulseek3r]

New Scientist getting paid, yet again!

[cuteputta]

is newscientist is hacked!!!

[GunitForLyfe]

WTFLOL FAIL

[smlefo]

except facebook has only been around for 7 years... and has gone through multiple site-redesigns in that period...

[Bingohanz]

Old.

[weirdboypro]

wtf? why is this on this channel -.-

[mcchuff]

I wonder how much facebook paid...

[mcchuff]

I wonder how my facebook paid...

[roidroid]

what the fuck is this

[Zk8et]

LOLwtf

[ashthegreat]

Thumbs up if you think Facebook should now be called Lifebook based on its great impact on everybody's life.

[daproblogger]

OMG They finally found the cure to cancer! Facebook!

[jazzjackrabbits]

Scientists hope that with this technology we will be able to develop tiny facebook robots to help in disaster recovery missions.

[yamum0433]

what the fuck is this, a drama?

[Reggis420]

what the fuck is this..

[mrdabbleswithpotion]

somebody!!! help!!! i have no facebook life as i don't have any friends!!! ADDD MEEE!!!!!!!

[theguyoo1]

I think FB feels used :(

[DeagleBeagle]

this is science?

[777Skeptic]

Lol, when he's in a relationship with Emma and then clicks her profile, Emma is still listed as "Single." Guess he didn't cheat after all, she's just possessive and insecure.

[warcrap]

so facebook cures cancer or what?

[777Skeptic]

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humor, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable.

[jbear0000]

0:42 they remove the blur too soon.

[toulouse666]

I am still waiting for the SCIENCE part of this video!?!

[OniLinkSword]

What's the point of blurring out the work fucking if it's just going to fly by un blurred a second later?

[hamsterpoop]

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available

[sillyhatday]

this is fuckin weird.

[RarewareLover]

he goes to las vegas a lot haha

[MegaAnitoon]

So who added Max as a friend?

[hamsterpoop]

@MegaAnitoon

niggers

[subh1]

@hamsterpoop RACIST!!!!

[LNOL]

Science!

[EclecticSceptic]

I don't think facebook will durate a whole human life. It was born a trend and all fashions end.

[holymasteric]

A life on facebook? what life?

[Hatchwork]

This is science related how? gimme a break.

[ratunkupolicja]

Nice love story, where is life?

[FlumenSanctiViti]

This was on College Humor quite some time ago! :/

[carrrotts]

01:50, read their conversation then... very interesting!

[Knight3191]

Why the fuck did he go to Vegas so many times?

[coollikeyodais]

That two minute life was more interesting than mine :(

[xRahmx]

wtf stolen?! Maxime Luere is the creator of this thing!!!!!

[Levianos]

I don't know why I watched the whole video but its pretty cool..

[skyw09]

why is this on newscientist video...? they keep uploading stuff that i can't see science in.

[MeningsMod]

Did he live in Las Vegas, or just visit once a week?

[jinkis4]

2:05 the two Rocks: My country Lebanon! <3

[minirobot1]

That hit me where I live. *sobs*

[mrebyers]

People who use facebook needs their heads examined.

[01467603]

the poke button == the i want to f*ck you button

[MysticalFlyingMonkey]

I bet this Matt person at the end really just wants more friends on facebook.

[SirThaddeusWalters]

Sure, um, interesting video....but why is this shit on NS? *sigh*

[eldeano1]

@SirThaddeusWalters yeh i've seen it somewhere else before : /

[blazednlovinit]

@SirThaddeusWalters probably because someone put it on XD

[greedyfoot]

@SirThaddeusWalters I wonder the same thing. There's beginning to be a lot of these things on here.

[archymtln]

fake and gay

[nakorn86]

i wish life was that simple..

[gevespe]

freeze at 00:42. Censorship fail.

[YuneShik]

@gevespe im pretty sure everyone knows and saw that. seems like they did it on purpose

[kid29a]

@BestCatEvaDontHateMe Probably because of the name of the channel. Same here :P

[kid29a]

...and? Is this an advertisement of Facebook? Doesn't look believable to me. It's most probably a fake viral ad.

[larry89]

1:50

[wicek3d]

Facebook == FAIL ;

[luckviewer777]

[weezcake]

What does this have to do with curing cancer?

[kith1989]

[ThatAngryRanter]

[djivesp]

People, people, fix the aspect ratio!

[BigEvan96]

Go smoke another blunt or something?

[5um4nu3l]

Really, will facebook be te same all that years? It changes like every 6 months! o_O

[G3org3Master]

He is faceless.

[brickdawallz]

hold the phone....when it starts, he's like in his 20's....

I think I'm getting trolled here but at the end he's old.....

Alex Droner must be like....5 different people!!!!!!!!

[dailosguerra]

Sadly true.

[MattDurden]

That's a whole lot of Lorem Ipsum

[Timur66689]

1:28 - "Poke Diana? You are about to poke Helene. She will be informed of this on her home page." kekeke

[3kToT]

wasn't this uploaded somewhere else before?

[Blacklockz]

@3kToT It was, but with a song "Paint It Black" and in better quality.

[3kToT]

@Blacklockz oh yeah, now I remember

[yellowmetalcyborg]

I have nothing against this video in particular, but I think facebook is a mixed blessing, for many reasons people don't consider.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

Whoa. TMI

[drdeee6]

facebook destroys relationships

[oizz]

Seems like NewScientist turned to advertising instead of science...

[Ramsez]

diana = helene??

[marcarmstrong88]

who the FUCK is she?!!! 1:04 ... new scientist evidentially not good at blurring words

[Niosus]

old....

[MrTranceNinja]

This didn't bring a smile to my face...more towards ಠ_ಠ.

[ereignisfelder]

face and book is here to stay.

I dig it till the end.

hit it!

[TheGoblinBane]

Neat...



[thepeff]

Kindof nifty but where's the science?

[TheSoundDepo]

I've seen this couple of times before on other channels but its still pretty clever

[Slyvr18]

Anyone else see the same las vegas pictures like 20 times

[tetrahc]

This is new science?

[sachiperez]

Not sure that it belongs on this channel, but great video!

[tehcexymeowmix]

creepin

[juna666]

pimp!

[Razzfazz87]

Luckily facebook is banned where I live. Its that village no morons live in, you probably havent heard of it though. Krysta is underground.

[melis256]

@Razzfazz87

Orly?

[nintendopi]

What is this doing here? What a waste of space.

[asshatnowhere159]

lol, it blurres out 'fucking' but when it zooms out you can see it

[ConstantinIV]

I liked it

[themilkmister]

Seeeeeen it

[de500ya]

What an absolutely fabulous soundtrack ..!!!!!

[xxDrain]

Too long, did not listen.

Plus, fuck facebook.

[TheWeskJago]

i wonder how many people will try to friend alex droner now...

[jkjkjij22]

who the hell doesn't change their profile pic for that long?!

[systat]

What the hell is this?

[TheWeskJago]

@systat - *siiigghh* the title says "a life on facebook" and then in the info it has a link to and says "Read more". next question!

[systat]

@TheWeskJago I mean this is obviously some fake stuff, he didn't even entered Birthday when he registered his account, 0:08...

[TheWeskJago]

@systat - yup. it was directed by Maxime Luere 2:38 and "With an estimated 400 million people now using Facebook, it's a scenario most of us are familiar with. But although the movie will likely bring a smile to your face, it also touches on some more important issues - most notably how readily we share personal information with hundreds of people online and how this information builds up a story of our lives" - the link in the description ;P

[TheWeskJago]

16+ people watched this and said "that's not a TRUE facebook life! i haven't had a girlfriend in years! dislike!"

[RedemptiveIRage]

911 videos.

[Saruman1000]

why so many dislikes you dicks?

[GODLYELLiiOT]

@Saruman1000 Because this is a copy of the original which has better audio and video quality.

watch?v=mCUCZCBso_w

[zanderzander05]

where was the divorce? arent studies now saying that 1 out of 5 divorces are related to facebook?

[Destro7000]

This isn't very Sciency, NewScientist. More, student-filmy.

[Cheedillow]

This is a very old video.

[patsfan1100]

haha so sad yet so true!
