Everyone's Your Friend...

[vidkid42]

John Green can't draw a crowd? I just got back from a Tour de Nerdfighting event where about a thousand people beg to differ =)

[flyingforever891]

Lol super old cellphone!

[sgtfwoods]

I live near a place called Triangle Square, wrap you brain around that one!

[rlsweeden]

Ah! I missed it. By three years :/ But I live at Union Square now :(

[RaynaOfSunshine]

I was in New York at this.exact.time. I used to live there.

Moved that year.

FML.

[ThatTheatreFreak]

Holy moly, I was in NYC on vacation a week after this. I wasn't a Nerdfighter then, though :(

[HelloMalt]

WHY WAS THIS NOT THIS YEAR I LIVE LIKE 10 MINUTES AWAY FROM THAT BOOKSTORE NOW D:

[LovePeaceAndMusic22]

i wish that i was a nerd fighter 3 years and 6 days ago, that would have been awesome

[TookItHomeToJenny]

Damnit I'm English and therefore can't make it, oh and I'm from the future...

[undimmedmagics]

there's no 2:37 0_e

[FrenchTheLlama1]

I wish I could have gone... 

[supertheaedithman]

1. pause the video

2. press 4

3. press play

4. press 4 as many times as you want, until Hank makes you do it!

[kingslice75]

Very nice video.  Are you by any chance related to Max Headroom? :)

[HarryPotterTrio91]

ARRRGGGHHH!!! i was actually in the city on that day. Why oh why wasn't I a nerdfighter back then?

[JediCoati]

I wish it WAS union station. Because then it would be a few minutes away, not 3,000 miles (yes i know those are two different measures.)

[SirTeeGeeEss]

...In which hank discovers homophones.

[jocisboss]

UNION STATION IS IN CHICAGO.



[TehBonar]

@jocisboss It's also in Toronto!

[JediCoati]

@jocisboss there is also a union station in Los Angeles

[drumsforhands]

OLD PHONE!!!!!!!

[TheSunshineNetwork]

[annatheHPtwerdfightr]

"wow guest and guessed are the same word...guest....guessed...."

hahaha hank this is why I love you

[artvandelay13]

All this talk of Toronto reminds me of Steve Martin's line from 30 Rock: "Come with me to Toronto -- it's just like New York, but without all the stuff!"

[saimawesome]

COME TO TORONTO.

we have canadian bacon. :)

[bibliophile232]

...what if we are in florida....? *sob*

[chicagocanine]

Hooray for TMBG references!

[LadyJuse]

for most of the video I was looking at the Lion King poster next to your face! xD

[elangworthy]

Man I love New York. I want to get back there someday.

[eragonlover1]

John Green can't draw a crowd? SO WRONG. SUCH LIES.

[Achw3l]

Oh noes I was at Times Square on the 5th of July 2008 >:-( Missed it by a month...^^

[colonkay]

*yay for subtle Toronto reference*

[lifeismusical246]

Union Station is in St Louis!

[anicetosify]

and Toronto

[purple1042]

o my gosh! you remind me of duckie from pretty in pink! I forgot the actor's name... hopefully someone who is more movie literate will correct that... but great movie!

[hypnotisedbabe]

Jon Cryer is Duckie in Pretty In Pink :)

[purple1042]

ha ha thanks! love that movie!

[hypnotisedbabe]

No problem ;)

[whatawittyusername]

[NpPro93]

[maroo8]

omg you're so cute. haha such a wonderful personality.

[ohtehnoes1337]

I knew immediately from the title of this video you were in New York.

Because everyone's your friend in New York City.

And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty.

[senorsqueakydesk]

Times Triangle. It just doesn't have the same ring to it.

[smylelikeyoumeanit]

I hate living in hawaii.

[1092jniufvhorh]

This is the video where Hank realizes what city is really the center of the universe.

[DittoFreak]

Comment 314:

New York New York, its a helluva town,

the Greens are here and they're nerding around...eh,

[kapowitsme]

poor floridians

[Monkeynocure]

i live right there, too bad i missed it :[

[speede179]

Aww...this was posted on my birthday.

[kitenarie]

As a bookseller, this made me cringe to think about, but otherwise sounds like it was probably awesome!

[NorthernVAMike]

times square was an awesome backdrop! I'm sorry I missed the Barnes event with Maureen.

[TobiSkye]

Omg that chick was so cool! Just randomly wanting to be in your video, that's so awesome! I bet she's a Nerdfighter and doesn't even know it. I hope you witnessed to her, Hank =)

[Ichbinblod]

[TurbaTaT]

[kittydreamz86]

it's so weird - i've been watching all the videos in order for a few weeks and i'm finally getting to where the vlogbrothers and i are existing at the same time. I don't know how to process that yet.

[CoconuttyScent]

I know what you feel like, I've been there..

It still feels a little wierd.

[JayoLeno]

...what??

[ActingGirl924]

Hank, you must come to Florida...now.

You and John and Maureen.

[SeayKat]

omg HANK HAS THE SAME PHONE AS ME!!!!!!!!! I don't know why that is so freakin awesome, but it is. YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

[horsewhisperer990]

i really wish that i lived in new york. actually, more like, i wish that my parents would let me take the train to new york. do you think that you might ever come to philadelphia or new jersey?

[dark420bishop]

Hahaha, I love you guys. I wish I could have been there. Nerdfighter love, baby! :D

[sploogersmoof]

great thing about Manhattan, so much weird shit happens there on a daily bases people are completely unaffected by it.

[SlieghtOfNose]

How many people were there?

[mickeleh]

Gee, I'm in the wrong city and, oh, it's the wrong day. Now, what did I do with that TARDIS?

[ohnoitsrobin]

Maureen Johnson? Like from RENT? xD

[omgitsmegx]

LOL at the end. "NERDFIGHTEEERS!"

[kwgurl4eva]

hahahaha i love you!

[HOLLYWOODGALLLS101]

[readingwench]

TORONTOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! ANY chapters or indigo in the greater Toronto area and I will ditch work and or school along with about 20 other nerd fighters (and that's just what I know of...I'm sure there is more in TORONTO) and if it's somewhere else in ONTARIO then we will...probably make it. just send card board cutouts or something, those will draw a crowd to! (love the vote sign in the back ground, and how it's the smallest)

[Shyshing]

omg,you can add me to that list! i would gladly recieve a zero on any given test if i got to be in a room that filled with awesome.

btw, are there any nerdfighters in the toronto-ish area? i would just kinda like to know

[readingwench]

ass me to the ontario torontoish area nerdfighters, and I know a few others

[readingwench]

add me! not ass me! woops

[IcedCapQueen]

I FEEL SO BETRAYED.... I mean, TORONTO was leading in the freakin demands by 30 for weeks, months even! Then New York...

ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!

Go to Toronto now, Hank, and John!

[puppyl0ve9]

OMG! i live in nyc but i left for Toronto on the 5th! and i find this out now?! *whines*

[FiveWrockingGirls]

Dude you really have to come to Union Station ;)

I would really really really love to go and freakout. NERDFIGHTERS!

[DaPolack]

too bad i saw this on the 14th im guessing you are not in nyc anymore

[sgtpeppers10]

so.. i was about to feel horrible that i wasn't at this event.. but then i remembered that i was in CHICAGO at this time aaaand that i DANCED WITH YOU AT WROCK REGGIES. huzzah!

[mamaie2007]

[hexachordal]

[swanlilly]

*sigh* I'd have gone, but I was in VT!

[Eponinea]

AHH HANKKKK!!!

I LIVE in new york.

And I was AWAY.

COME BACK!!

[TrickyFishes]

you shouls at least give us a week warning in advance so we can take off work and save some 24 dollars for a round trip train ticket... ive been meaning to go to the history museum with my boyfriend and it would have been like well i guess we have a reason to go ... yeah :D

[Shauzia3]

Oh my god. I'm going to kill myself. I just realized that I was in New York City that day...DAMN IT. If only I just turned on my computer....

[CoDee2U]

so, how many showed up??  did you make a statement to Barnes & Noble??

[hawksense]

damn it i missed this!

[jacklestein]

Time square is a triangle?

[Shauzia3]

Yes. Odd, but yes.

[orpheumsilva]

Yes.

[the5regularguys]

Well, I'm in NC, so I could have made the trip. However, the price of gas and my lack of funds keep me from going anywhere right now.

[CrayolaaWonderr]

im pissed. i could have gone if I saw this video earlier!

[dodgycrumpet]

how the hell could i miss this!??? i've been waiting for a NYC nerdfighter meetup all year, and the ONE WEEK out of the entire year that i go away, hank shows up in the city. fuck my life.

HAAAAAAAAANK, COME BACK!

[valerieisonline]

i missed it :(

[theatreinthesound]

Boo lack of advance notice! I would have gone but I don't check youtube everyday so I didn't know about it until it was too late... :(

[LittleLimaBean]

:D i love how you vlog in public normally like you would vlogging in private

[sevenburningcandles]

[monkeygoosemoose]

OMG I left the city @ 5 on wednesday!!!!!!!

NOW I'M PISSED

[thezenofjen]

[epichearting]

[animaguspadfoot]

i wish i could have gone but i had class

[meoka2368]

Most people just don't pronounce the D correctly on guessed.

[Sibnosis]

I didn't get why they called the video "Everyone's Your Friend"....and I was like TMBG! HAZAAAAH!

[l0slngallc0ntr0l]

I Am Enchanted-----> that's definitely the one place in the world you can spin around with a camera and have no one think it's that weird.

[cloverjinx]

I think you should come to Boston. We're way cooler than NYC would have you believe.

[7DayTripper7]

will you come to the west coast?

[RainOverStreetlights]

i hate myself

if i had seen this on august 6th....

vwrjovnjksfbdvogsedhfwih

[Briellesabop]

NOO!!!! you've gotta be kidding me! i was in ny like... about a couple weeks ago... and now its the 9th.... ah... so im off by 3 days...

AH PLEASE COME TO NEW JERSEY TO HELP MAKE IT SUCK LESS!!!

[molziscool]

i cant believe you were in my hometown. . and i was away in florida. im so angry /=

[LifeIsYum]

please come to boston!

[embo73091]

that guessed and guest comparison BLEW MY MIND.

[scarletseal]

my brother works in union square!!!! i love NYC its the best~ but warning... chinatown smells a bit and its gross.... found that out quickleh.

[SuperSasquatch24]

ahaha! i love how you are like on drugs but not rly!

[cindythelou85]

also, you guys should come to kansas city.

[cindythelou85]

you were in basically the most public place on earth...did anyone recognize you?

[51320044]

HAHA to...

1. its like i'm in a movie

2. guessed and guest

3. times square/triangle

ps - I've been to NYC and Chicago!!! with my school for choir :D *props to being in same places at different times*

[agracescarlet]

of course you have a fun even the day that i'm not in the city =/

[irishprincess021085]

i saw hank!!!!!!!!!!! omg love him and we went to the park

[Nerdfighter7814]

Hank, I was standing EXACTLY WHERE YOU ARE in this video the day before you filmed it. Are you trying to make me cry?

[sapphicnickel]

i frikfraken LOVE NYC. and YOU filming from times square was..loverly to say the least :) yaaaaay!!! seriously, the best city in the world. saddly i am in iowa and so could not join you...2 days ago. but dang it if i had a time machine, and then a plane to get there, I sure as heck would!

[Lizador]

One of the best openers, ever!!

If I wasn't required to work, I would totally drive to NY... It is only like an 8 and a half hour drive to get there.

I hope this event went well.

[omgfreakay]

Times Square is advertising central XD

Come to montreal !

[Doushitemo]

come to dallas!

[elvee88]

god dude you talk fast

[hippopotomussss]

i was there and i didnt see him!!! and i almost went in barns and nobel! dammit why couldnt our hotel have internet connection!!!! nvm... i was three days to early :(

[bddhsmama]

sometimes you break my heart, hank.

i was just in nyc & left tuesday-and then in chigago until wednesday! GAH!

times square is a bit..touristy, isn't it? after i got done taking the obligatory 'omg, i'm in times square!' photos, i wondered what else i could do there, and there was nothing! the only possible exception was that M&M's store that sold me a regular bag of M&M's for $9.

also, did you notice the lack of new yorkers in times square?

[Madchild2001]

I am so upset that I missed this.... I say Hank should get punished because he only gave us 24 hours notice.

Had we been given more time I'm sure the crowd would have been larger, and proven that the Green's can draw large crowds. Hello!!! City with 3 million plus people= large crowd.

Again, I think this calls for a PUNISHMENT!!!!

[PunkRockChit]

okay you have no idea how sad i am right now!!! im visiting in New York RIGHT NOW!!! and i was around that area yesterday!!! PLZ come to toronto! then i'll actually see you guys!! grr...i cant believe i missed it!!! i was in times square yesterday too = (

[Navs1231]

I WENTTTTTTTT!!!

[loser078]

hank, you are a braver man than I.

also, there's a union station in Toronto, too.

[Madchild2001]

not the same as union sqaure though... No offense.

[zouljiin]

I appreciate the Cub/TMBG reference. I wish I could be there!

[theabnormal1]

wow, you're so excited! =^.^=

[colincito]

well, i guess im excused since i live in florida but maybe u guys should come down to orlando and do a show.

[katietherunner]

I'm so sad. My computer wouldn't let me on the internet yesterday and i could have gone. I'm going to go sit in a corner and cry now.

[PunkRockChit]

i feel ur pain= ( i was right in the area and i couldnt didnt have internet acess to check

[chssoftball20]

my family is staying in new jersey for the week.

on tuesday we took a one day trip to new york.

on wednesday we got home and watched this video.

and now my brother is really depressed.

[lostinvale]

OMG! How long are they going to be there, I get off of work at 6!!! Damn New Jersey for being a 45 min train ride away.

[Pook365]

Ahhh bless random wanted you be in your video lady :)

[sherimcdoogle]

you need to go to union station in st. louis

[geegers8]

YES! Hank! Come to Union Station in the STL!

[annawritedraw]

The "VOTE" banner in the background is full of awesome! Also, did I miss a decision vlog on the glasses?

[lunalovegoodismyhero]

I, uh, think my favorite line in this was, "We're going to Chicago!" I hope the event last night was fun!

:D

[f0revrtwinkie]

i am very upset.

i read about this at 5:07pm yesterday.

and thought i would SO be there.

except i had to work. and couldn't get there in time.

and that makes me very mad. and i would have taken off work to be there.

i need more time hank.

[sodacon]

COME TO PORTLAND!

D:

Please.

[DRp350]

YEAH CHICAGO!

[wordupbrotha]

watch?v=1UEOZGFzPas

[sharingmypelicans]

Just for that comment, you owe us a trip to Florida. Not even kidding. Do it now. Come to Central Florida please. <333 Because we love you with an extra angstrom of awesome.

[gaarakills447]

haha i actually am in florida.

[missdivinestalls]

So wish I could have been there. I hope we can organize a meetup in Seattle. Seriously big nerdfighter country.

[lunylvgd]

:D I was there :D

today was definitely up there on the best times of my life list. Also, I won'tbe here for the nerdfighter tour so this made up for it. If you were there, shout out to me on my page!

[SCWoman]

Man, I wish I could have been there.

But I live five hours away.

Will you be in the DC area at any time?

[laurabelle729]

ahhh my friend and I couldn't get there until 6:30 and we MISSED you :(

and then we asked people that worked in Barnes & Noble if Maureen Johnson was doing a book signing and they basically looked at us like we were insane...

[FlamingEnvy]

Thanks for offering to explain, And I've always been awesome! (this reply is a LIE)

But I remembered that he'd be in NY an hour after it started. WHOOPS. My bad. Memory = not that great. I'm pretty much like an old man in a 15 year olds body.

[foreverjynxed]

Does Hank remind anyone but me of Mark from Rent????! Especially with the New York backdrop?

[absolutlyunsure]

yes... yes he does. n_n

[elliesaurie]

Hank, you HAVE to do something in Columbus, Ohio!!

PLEAAAASEE!! I will give you hugs and lots of cookies!!

[holikah]

ughhhhhh!

why didn't you tell us sooner???!!!! i was THERE today :(

i didn't know

[locologan187]

yeah union station is in Indy. :D

[Irridescent]

There's one in Chicago.

[MeOrTheWallpaper]

Oh, I wish I could have come. I saw the video when it was too late though, it was already... now.

So yeah...

did John Green draw a crowd?

[samaytara]

Damn!!!! the one week im not in new york!!! i hate this!!! i am always at that barnes and nobles. (well usually i am at the Strand because it is better)

[jjjnmk]

T_T I wish i could come.

w8

it already happened.

IM IN CHINA!!! T_T

[xmyotheraccountx]

wow hank/ john, way to spell prize right

[xmyotheraccountx]

blond guy with nerdy glasses and a camera in new york city...

everyone probably thought you were that guy from rent.

[ribbonsandsoldiers]

Who wouldn't want to be in your video, Hank?

I don't think that behavior was weird at all.

[sensiblemaniac]

Why couldn't you be in NYC just a couple days before? Like last Friday?

You're a two hour train ride away. =(

[elegantelasmosaurus]

NOOOOOO I missed Hank too! I flew out of NY city the day he was there! NOOOOOOO

[bondman70]

i mist him by an hour

[dramanerd1491]

hahahaha thats funny I'm in Florida
