  • Aww the end :(, follow me on twitter ©BrayaThaNinja

  • Demetri martin is a  great philosopher man

  • i have never had a stand up comidian make me re-evaluate my life thus far.... it like as oxymoron

  • I've been studying for med school ever sence I was 12. I'm about to go to college, here's hoping it doesn't suck

  • @TheNesbittNation1 Undergrad or first year of med school? You should know it's since* not sence.

  • Life is what you make it.

  • Man he is really smart. I knew he was knowledgable, but he is a genius. 

  • If you rearrange the letters in Demetri, you get "me tried"

    Hmmm....

  • This man is like the greatest existentialist ever. 

  • If Demetri does an encore he should wear a t-shirt that says "me tired".

    Also he could start a anagram/palindrome clothing company.

    An encore of that would be a company named me tired that sold pajama's with "Me tired, Demetri." prints.

    Just saying.

    Man.

  • Wtf are all u idiots arguing about all he is saying is if ur life is not worth examining its not worth living it has nothing to do with god or science now that u may apply god or science to UR LIFE is another story.hes also saying the meaning of I is all those if that u face everyday thats u so stop with the whole arguments and just enjoy life to the best way that fits YOU and stop trolling on ppl that dont belive wat u do

  • I'm trying to figure out what to do with my life. My parents really want me to have a plan but I have a lot of interests, all of which are artistic or literary, that I want to follow. I really feel in my heart that I'd be happy doing many different things in my lifetime. Writing a few articals, waitressing, painting, reading tarot cards on Thursdays, whatever. I just want to go and travel and learn through experience and others' opinions. I want to investigate - myself, the world, life, etc.

  • Pong Magazine........(Sub Headline)Can he be stopped? I was laughing.

  • This just has to be the most brilliant thing ive ever experienced

  • @thatskindacool Im a religious person too, but dont be a a douche. Just because i believe in God doesnt mean i have to go shoving it around in other people's faces. This is a damn comedy show, so make the comments related. Shoving religion into peoples faces makes you no better than the "god hates fags" people at the westboro baptist church

  • he basically just transcended the meaning of life

  • He's not a comedian, he's a damn philosopher.

  • All those silly motivational speeches back in highschool should just be replaced by this. Very entertaining and meaningful. :)

  • comedy stand up show + motivational speech 

  • ladies!

  • Am I the only one who thinks science and faith do not have to be opposing forces? I hate you idiots who always argue things like "the bible makes no sense" or "god is the reason for all things good" it's just very ignorant, don't bring that into a video about an extremely smart inspiring man. Can't we all just get along, man. Thank you.

  • " 'The unexamined life is not worth living,' man" -Demitri Martin

  • @thatskindacool People trust too blindly in "god" they were raised a certain way and accept that Jesus is gods son and gods the creator of all. While I don't believe in any god, because the whole ideas just stupid, it's important to find purpose in life. What ever that may be. It doesn't have anything to do with a "god" unless you want to believe a story with major plot holes. I prefer to find purpose in such things as love and family. I believe in myself and reject all man made religions.

  • This is amazing,not only funny but insightfull! keep it up Demetri

  • the piano is creepy.....

  • @melodydiamondeyes Yes, yes it is. 

  • "number of girls that like me ^4000%"

    Basically everything he does is funny and amazing :)

  • Life changing

  • "You can't figure out a person. Definitely not yourself. You can't maximize a life! What you can do is try to be honest in the choices that you make. Be true to yourself, no matter how embarrassing those choices are. Life is not a science, I realize that. But if I told you that right now, I don't have a point system of some kind. I'd be a lier. I'm a guy who does palendromes, tell jokes about leather jakets. Because that gives me some meaning at least for now."

    -Demetri Martin

  • I thought for surely he would rearrange the letters on his shirt again to say "me tired" for the end. Demetri: 1, Matt: 0

  • This is the third time I have watched his If I videos and every time I still laugh and am inspired by what he says.

  • watched it all and i loved it

  • Well done Dimitri. Well done indeed.

  • How did 46 people get to the sixth video out of six and decide that it sucks and give it a thumbs down. This blows my mind.

  • Any one notice that his shirt changes into an anagram?

  • Great, Wonderful, Spectacular, AWSOME!

  • @KebertXela3000, troll, calm down, it's just a troll.

  • Comment removed

  • I say that was more amazing and inspirational than funny.

  • Whoa this guy is deep....i salute you demetri! \m/ '_' \m/

  • Ye, I think I would've liked this if I was half my age now. OOpps, I just saw that he is actually older than me, but this was 8 years ago, so he is probably even wiser today.

  • Absolutely amazing. Completely mind-boggling

  • thanks, man

  • I think this just made a better person.

  • one of the best shows i ever seen.so true and very inspiring. i've seen one of your shows before without even realizing it was "demetri martin." wow. keep it up.

    whatever dude!!

  • I nominate Demetri Martin for smartest person ever.

  • Wow. I watched all six vids "if I." this guy really speaks to me. This show is pure poetry in motion.I have myself created several self improvement charts, and for what? To better myself and to help others. Useless as it may seem, I have learned some things about myself from it. Demetri, if you're out there, may God bless you, man.

  • I just graduated from college with a degree in Political Science. I'm currently unemployed & looking to earn money to go teach English in China. I'm having a lot of trouble finding a job & transitioning from a D-1 track athlete to an unemployed nobody. It has been tough but I think he has made me feel better about my situation. I overanalyze so many things & me and him have a lot in common. Thanks for the words of encouragement, Demetri & goodluck!

  • I always thought he should become a motivational speaker. His perception of things is odd and that leads him to be able to see his own flaws very clearly.

  • so am i the only one that noticed his shirt said "me tried" in this vid instead of "Demetri".(which consist of the same letters)

  • @TylerI2 didn't notice that but it's expected of demetri lol awesome observation person =]

  • Seriously? No standing ovation?

    He pretty much just said the meaning of life

  • what a waste

  • 12:21 when i finished watching this. Its a palindrome! :)

  • at 0.35 the numbers are a palindrome!

  • haha such a uni student

  • no it said me tried i checked but it's works both ways

  • There are so many palindromes throughout this show.

  • this isn't a comedy show, this is a motherfucking symphony

  • i agree

  • i love this man

  • I wonder y he didnt make it "me tired"

  • demetri martin for president 2012

  • "me tried" is the letters of "demetri" switched around.

  • demetri = me tired 

  • I just watched the whole six parts and enjoyed every minute of it.  Bravo Dimitri. Not a lot of "bust a gut" moments, but that's ok - I had a big smile on my face the whole time.

  • he changed the letters around on his shirt

  • Just noticed his number on the work card is a palindrome (0:34)

    61-01-1016

  • the end was so meaning full i almost cried

  • he's like a modern day wiseman

  • Wait a minute, "If I" is a palindrome... what a dork.

    Or... Work da hat.

  • @futurestoryteller that's an anagram. palindromes are the same forward and backward

  • @frankiesloth2 You mean "Work da hat?" yeah, I know... He said he likes anagrams. I guess I understand why you're confused about me being confused, but honestly, I wasn't, I did know the difference.

  • This is one of the most amazing things anyone can ever watch. This man has quantified the meaning of life.

  • What A Smart Man...:)

  • lol at :34 his card number is a palindrome.

  • I'm surprised that his math problem didn't look like this:

    I = (If+If^X)/time.

    Yes, i'm a nerd too.

  • Thumbs up if you noticed that his id number for work is a palindrome.

  • He Inspired me to be a Better Person.

  • This man is brilliant.

  • anyone else notice his fly doesnt have a zipper?

  • this guy is a genius. its freaking awesome how he realizes all the stuff he could've done but hes happy with how he is.

  • Thumbs up if you watched this entire thing and it left you in awe, and made you see things differently. Also, if you are a person.

  • @zackdoesblogs i did... i seen all his stuff on netflix.

  • should have got a standing ovation.

  • ;~; awwhs..that made me sad..how hes talking about his life how he could have been doing other stuff besides wasting his life away and then his shirt said "me tried." i had no clue how fucking smart he was :L smexy brains <3

  • I had no idea he was so smart until I watched this.

    I like him even more now. :)

  • he should have skated when he was younger. theres nothing more unproductively productive than skating. its just plain fun and gives a sense of satisfaction that only skaters understand. and yes i do skate

  • his fly is open at 0:43

    

  • This video gave me enough time to eat AN ENTIRE BAG OF GOLDFISH and burn it all off while laughing at the jokes.

  • I think I'm on love.

  • I didn't know that Demetri Martin was a motivational speaker. I wanna do someting extremely productive, right now. But there's nothing to do... I'll have to come back and watch this when I have a test for Differential Equations or something lolol

  • @heathersvancara +1 i realise that "if i" change my if's I can change my life I am going to try and write a stand up set cos thats what I wanted to be when I was younger :-)

  • He is a genius.

  • the views on this vid is a palindrome right now!!!

    1,010,101

    

  • @asdio02 Ha, your post made me realise it's a palindrome now too. 1,031,301.

  • @asdio02 Not anymore sadly.

  • @asdio02 3 months later i read this look at the views and its 1,047,401...Wow

  • "me tried" XP

    I love all his quirks. they add a new level to his nerdiness :)

    He's so sexy because of that ;D

  • 3 30 here. I think this video is more productive than sleep. I didnt know Demetri is a motivational speaker too.

  • I think I'm going to do something time consuming and wildly unproductive now. <3

  • this video inspires me to push myself to the best of my abilities. right now im on a fast track to a horrible life and im trying my best to change. i wanna be worth something dammit, so im off to make my own point chart! :D

  • @KingKoopa98 My thoughts exactly......

  • 2 34am here ha, great, insightful videos, nice too see a different side to demetri.

  • My brain hurts. And I do 7x7 rubix cubes. But this guys like damn.

  • Demetri is a genius...

  • Diva D is I, David

  • I love that most people that watched this... stayed up until three in the morning to do so. It's 1 : 45, and I'm glad.

  • @SuperYorkiegirl it's exactly 1:45 am here

  • Give a thumbs up if you agree with me, demetri martin is todays confucius, he is a genius.

  • <3

  • Demitreology- A new philosphy.

  • This was not only hilarious, but it actually inspired me... Kind of xD

  • Im not too bright, can anyone make something cool out of the names: Zaine Herring, Dean Bolding, Renavin Santana, Rose Santana, or David Mills?

  • @ZenoXdaGreat A zen ring heir, bolgna died (yeah I know bologna is missing a letter, ahah), as avian tanner, ants as a roe, avid slim D.L., respectively.

  • @ZenoXdaGreat Rate Ass Anon (Rose Santana) I'd lend a bong (Dean Bolding) Hernia Zinger (Zaine Herring) An Insane Rat Van (Renavin Santana) Diva Smell (Dave Mills) That was fun.

  • I'm almost in tears over here.

    Holy fuck. I love this man.

  • This was actually an inspirational speech. Behind those jokes, he had a message to give all of us.

  • his shirt changed from "demetri" to "me tired" between part 5 and 6

  • That was fascinating to the degree of awesomeness.

  • 1:57 Most thought provoking statement of the show.

  • This was the most interesting stand up comedy I've seen. I can hardly call it stand up. It was inspirational, open, honest. I agree with Demetri, you'll probably never figure yourself out. But I think when you can be open and accept yourself for who your are, you're able to overcome that fear of never meeting your own expectations, and just move forward with your life.

  • This video was stupid motivating. Going to develop a math point system. brb, becoming a genius.

  • This comedy special made me think. It really makes you think about things. Dimitri is an inspiration.

  • My choice right now, my "if".... to watch Demetri Martin talk about his life and school years while not studying for my finals in *my* life and school years... :)

  • He looks like Lionel Messi.

  • You can see through a hole in his jeans at 0:44 . It's pretty awkward.

  • Holy crap i just noticed his shirt is his name Me Tried = Demetri

  • 46 people think leather vests are cool...

  • i would have written tried me? and then in subscript, ladies.

  • @FreeMartialArtist hahahahahahahaha i love this comment! it legit made my freaking life! so thank you so much! lol :)

  • @FreeMartialArtist hahahahahahaha i love this!! this legit just made my life!!!!!! thank you so much!!! :)

  • His shirt changed from Demitri to Me Tried.

    I love him.

  • This guy reminds me of Sufjan Stevens, Randy Pausch, and Mitch Hedberg all wrapped up in one. He looks like Pete Yorn too. This guy is crazy inspirational...

  • So good

  • When I noticed the whole show was a palindrome = Mind blown!

  • @Boxvoko What?! Seriously? I didn't even realize that!

  • @Summer261997 Its not, even if you just take the last sentence of the show, it turns into

    nam gnivil htrow ton si efil denimaxeun eht esuaceb

    100% not a palindrome.

  • anyone else notice the demetri becoming me tried?

  • @partha137 It's a palindrome!

  • @partha137 haha yeah an anagram of demetri

  • @partha137 me tried is Demetri....

  • Comment removed

  • I think he's funny with just about any subject he talks about. But this 6 part series is funny along with being something along the line of a self-help seminar. I usually criticize all those who create and or use self-help cd's or books. But Demetri has caused me to understand that, if used correctly, you can really improve your life. Especially if you accept your self for who you are....man.

  • good bloke...piss funny....wasn't what id thought it was going to be though

  • Demetri Martin... You are a beautiful soul. Thank you so much for just being you :)

  • I feel smarter for having watched all 6 parts of this.

  • 0:44!!!!!

  • This makes me want to be that fucking weird guy on the bus...man.

  • DEEP.......BABY

  • Wow that hit home. I too am a nerd, and I'm proud. You Demetri, are a genius. The only difference between you and I is that I actually pay attention in class. I'm not as smart either, but thats probably because I didn't read puzzles in class...

    Well done, well done. I feel inspired.

  • lol, what if this entire routine was a palindrome?

  • @TheBulletproductions I was wondering that for a while. It's not, but that would be amazing!

  • @TheBulletproductions your mother would birth exploding elephants

  • I almost started clapping at my house

  • wow..he is really cool:D like that is real inspiration:)

  • bragging about being a nerd.... interesting concept...

  • Wow... Just.. Wow... Watched all six parts and they really moved me in a way I've never felt before. Demetri, you are my hero.

  • 3,559 people think that they're smart if they like this.

  • @nyquil969 haha..... yeah.

  • Demetri Martin is truly a genius.

  • what if his whole standup routine was a palindrome..man?

  • @bongowaffles18 mfw.jpeg

  • @TheShadowW0lf oh my fudgin god... He needs to wear sum undies!

  • am i the only one who feels smarter after watching this?

  • @RantingRedHead1988 no, i doo

    

  • i want a ''me tried'' shirt

  • he is one of the most interesting men ive seen. this was a good 40 something minutes spent. there's alot to learn in this world.

  • I'm glad that I'm not the ony one who finds this relatable.. I personally love math. I go to a tutor afterschool, even though I understand the problems and how to solve them. I read the dictionary from time to time, and I create puzzles in my head. I can't concentrate in school because it doesn't give me definition, or meaning. I wanted to be a lawyer from a young age, but now that I'm getting older, I realize that I'm not sure if I want to be 'that guy.' This video has honestly effected me..

  • did anyone else noticed that he changed his shirt???

  • Lol. look at his nuts at 0:40

  • @TheShadowW0lf OH my god.
