Hot Girl in the Comic Shop

[rthompson39]

I find this video just plain insulting. There is no way that Spider-Man could beat The Hulk.

[tzuyd]

The lyric acknowledges the guy in the wheelchair as being stiff competition. Anyone taking offence at that is insulting themselves far more than this skit obviously didn't.

[Burninator44]

a timeless classic. 

[ladybluerose]

I love the fact that my boyfriend texted me from our comic book shop that he in working in. telling me to look this up.

[DangerasTM]

lol tripod are awesome

[GothamScarecrow]

I won't lie, it's always funny to see everyone stare whenever a girl whose easy on the easy visits the comic and gaming shops in my area.

[DirtyD614]

loved it

[lajebitiesa]

Geek girls... we are not too many

[DoctorWhoCenter2011]

This is what's so great about us nerds.

[DottyDotDitto]

Mmmm, chips. :)

[IIGrayfoxII]

i love the middleborough rd all the best from skithouse

[Padata3000]

she wasn't hot like the girls I see at minotaur (other comic book shops are available)

[DottyDotDitto]

@Padata3000 As a girl and as a frequenter of Minotaur,

I do declare, that you sir, are awesome.

[defygravity13]

Hot girl in the comic shop wasn't worth it, otherwise she join the conversation or listen to learn more about Hulk vs. Spiderman instead of looking pissy when she wasn't the focal point anymore. Do you really want to date the girl who goes into a comic book store to get attention and to make the geeks rival each other? Because she would probably "Like die of shame" to be seen with a comic book whereas I'm the girl who resolves comic book debates at my birthday with my Marvel/DC encyclopedias.

[TheDoctor394]

@defygravity13 But she was looking at Doctor Who!

[ScottJackson117]

Anyone who finds this as not funny are just contributing to the darkness of the world. That and ITS FAKE! COME ON! Find humor in this!

[YocekiMalfoy]

hahahahhahaha

this is sooooooooooooo nerd!! XD

[drewchoice]

Google "Wheelchair Cat." That is a funny bit that includes a wheelchair gag.

However, framing a joke, in which someone in a wheelchair as a less-than desirable dating option, that isn't funny. It isn't funny on any continent.

[mrckb]

@drewchoice good troll man, good troll.

[HAYDS510]

@drewchoice think of it like this, a girl that wouldn't have a dude just because he was in a chair isn't the kind of girl you would want anyway. in this song he sounds like he's threatened by the presence of the wheelchair guy , hence deflating his tires and "i knew i had to act fast". and the probability is that someone in a chair is more likely to be doing a laid back activity like reading than fighting a ninja ontop of a moving train.. so that's probably why he was there. nothing intended.

[croptop123]

the one in the middle wearing blue actually has a good voice

[drewchoice]

never pop a man's tire...

never confuse a pimp with a punk.

[drewchoice]

It's offensive because I say it's offensive. Don't need to explain it. It doesn't matter if anyone thinks nobody likes me , or if I need a sense of humor, or anything else. You can flame until 6 billion people say "you're an idiot." this video blows ,

[Cherez1003]

Drewchoice needs to freaking grow a sense of humor. I love it when they make fun of Phil from Harvey Birdman. Phil has a bad sense of direction and depth perception because he's blind in one of his eyes just like I am. When I saw him point in the 'wrong' direction the other characters became confused, I laughed my ass off because that has happened to me so many times!

Seriously, learn to laugh at things considered negative. :/

[snapefanno1]

anyone else thinking that any self-respecting 'hot girl in a comic shop' would join in the hulk v spiderman debate?

[ankhdeath88]

@snapefanno1 as a girl who would be in a comic book shop it would be and has been a conversation i have had.

and on that note, my money is on the hulk

[snapefanno1]

@ankhdeath88 I would join in these kinds of debates more often if I knew where my local comic book shop was. Though I'd be classed more of a nerd-girl than hot-girl.

I agree, hulk would totes beat spidey!

[Sailorsega]

@ankhdeath88 Especially because every time Hulk and Spidey fought Hulk has won (Except that one time when he had the Captain Universe powers)

[n00bAn1mator1]

great video quality. good song. great work!

[Bjarti234]

COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[traleb]

OMG! there should be a page where youtube comment bombers can argue and let legit people comment on a good video!! Tripod's my Fav band by the way lol

[summers283]

... I go into comic shops lookin' for Tripod ... no such luck yet :(

lol

xxx

[xThatOneNurdx]

Eep. Haha thx Sean xD

[tienxero]

guess at least they still have the security tapes...

[pjtrinidad23]

Does anybody here ever click on a video, scroll through comments and wonder how in the fuck the retarded arguments start?

[Katiikat1017]

@pjtrinidad23

Meee! I scrolled down a bit because I think this video is wicked funny and I wanted to read what people had said...but no such luck. :/

[megahann12]

@pjtrinidad23 lol actually wtf, yes, this one WAS funny haha good observation

[bareakon]

i think i was part of that argument lol

i was naturally on tripod's side

[Horrorbuff2]

Quadriplegic or not...

Drewchoice is a fucking idiot.

[Interagatesy]

hm lol who cares lol tripod r hot hahaha

[Omeganed0]

Fish and Chips are delish :D

[anonymuffin513]

fish and chips ftw.

[Aberjan]

oh god, i get into fights with my sisters always about fish and chips - better wrapped in brown paper or newspaper? newspaper makes me cack.

[xxfuryshotxx]

o my god, just stop all the arguing, and yeah i love fish and chips.

[AgentSliper]

Everybody seems to be very angry on this comment page.

Lets talk about something different.

Who here likes fish and chips?

[ribbon978]

I chips but not so much fish. Sorry, that sorta didnt stay positive cause i didnt like something. But i like chips. :)

[DrSloth78]

@AgentSliper

I love fish and chips.

[boeoeoeh]

@AgentSliper never had english fish n chips (from germany) but i would really like to test it :P

[eetdestroyer]

@AgentSliper I freakin' love fish and chips!

[pogue34]

@AgentSliper I'm more of a Hawiian Burger fan

[TSGOTF]

Anybody have a link to these guy's website?

[sheenie86]

jeebus. it's just a video. nobody says you have to like it.

i personally think tripod are quite funny, and i know people with disabilities who also like this kind of humour. they know not to take themselves too seriously.

i don't like watching videos of idiots hooning around in cars and crashing into things, so i don't go looking for them. and i don't leave comments on the vids having a whinge at how i don't like what they're doing.

[bareakon]

i think people are taking this video way too seriously.

either way, i think it would kind of be more discriminatory not to include certain minorities in our jokes.

if we have to protect people from harmless gags then we just single these people out even more.

that ain't progress, that's just being smug at being so "PC".

lol at the vid BTW

[braisinhussy]

Wow. So much wank for a little comedy vid.

[aTrUeSlYtHeRiN]

GREATEST VIDEO EVER!!!

[myllamagirl]

Honestly? Neither of us is right. But then again. Neither of us is wrong.

I've had more than my fair share of shit thrown at me in this life as I'm sure you have too. But you know something? I don't dwell on it because there's more to life. Go through life looking for the positive. Not the negative. Life's there to be lived. It's too short to bitch about.

Have fun with life. Enjoy it and ignore those you disagree with.

[bareakon]

amen.....

[drewchoice]

you haven't lived in this world long enough to form an opinion. this is insensitive, unfunny, belittling trash.

the fact that you see it as less, is only proof of your own immaturity. i'll say no more. i don't need to waste words w/ someone who refuses to open their eyes to reality. you'll probably reply, thinking that "who ever gets the last word is right." but this isn't a debate; it was a plea. and no one needs coercion to plead for civility. it's action that one takes upon injustice!

[myllamagirl]

No-one forced you to watch it. Nor forced you to reply to any one of my comments.

They were comments not lectures and as I'd said previously though not is as few words. We're all entitled to our own opinions. One man's trash is another man's treasure.

[DexterFishbourne]

@drewchoice pull the stick out your ass, dickwad.

[Jazukai]

They said "my competition was a guy in a wheelchair so i knew i had to act fast" that's clearly suggesting he was a worthy adversary in love, how is that offensive? :/

but also, @drewchoice nobody likes you

[myllamagirl]

Actually, this is from the show is from Channel Ten. Not the ABC.

As a nation, Australians have a different sense of humour. We poke fun at anyone and everyone (including ourselves) all in the name of humour. It's not about putting any minority/person/place or thing down. We have jokes about things before the wreckage even hits the water.

No harm is ever intended. Tripod really are a caring group of guys who enjoy self-depreciating humour.

When you can laugh at your own faults...

[narutotcg621]

@drewchoice I love this song and i am in a wheel chair i have been for over 3 years and i am only 18 going on 19. I also liek this song because my parents own a comic shop and i have been think about makign a video with my friends and putign it with this song and i dont recall hearing the N word in the song i could be wrong but i did not hear it at all and i have listined to it alot so if you point it out to me i will listin to the time when it is said

[narutotcg621]

@drewchoice and they are not puting people in wheel chairs down i have had 15 guys jellous of me becuase i talk to the girl that that they are interested in or are dating so that is my take i love thsi song it is funny all my friends fidn it great

[Sailorsega]

@drewchoice But this video makes fun of nerds (like myself) unless being nerdy is a disability (it's not) then it's not making fun of any disability. Are you talking about them letting the air out of the bloke in the wheelchair's tires? Because that was so he couldn't impress her more and score a date with her.

[drewchoice]

Thanks, myllamagirl. I get that the joke is on the geek. The joke is that out of all the losers, the geek is the biggest loser. But as a quadriplegic, I refuse to be labeled a loser. In fact, i'd like to beat the hell out of the losers that made this. I'm in a chair that I drive w/ my head, I go to comic book stores and conventions, and I hook up w/ women, though I have to work hard at reassuring them that being a Quad, I'm still capable of performing. Crap like this video, makes my job harder.

[myllamagirl]

I completely understand this. And as a geek, the rare female kind at that I get labelled as a loser as well. I don't like it, but I can see the humour in things like this.

It doesn't mean to say that everyone has to laugh or like it. But that also doesn't mean to say that it shouldn't stop others from reading the humourous intent. A joke always detracts upon some member of society, be it blondes, the Irish, the short, geeks or so on.

[myllamagirl]

The sad thing is that there is always going to be people insulted. Even when it isn't intended.

[drewchoice]

the joke about a dude in a wheelchair is tasteless. making crippled jokes is like using the N-word when you're not black.

[myllamagirl]

That's true, however the joke is made about the geek.

What the joke is saying that out of a geek, a kid and a cripple, without work the geek still won't win the girl.

[oatmealpony]

They didn't even make a joke about the guy in a wheelchair, you idiot, they mentioned him briefly as someone who was also in the comic shop.

They didn't say "THERE WAS FUCKING CRIPPLE IN THE CORNER DOING FUCK ALL AND DROOLING LIKE CRIPPLES DO BECAUSE THEY ARE CRIPPLES AND CANNOT MOVE", they just mentioned that one of the people in the comic store was in a wheelchair.

[drewchoice]

Apparently, I'm a quadriplegic wheelchair-dependent animation designer, who's also an "idiot," because I don't get comedy, as well an "idiot" because I don't have the right to be offended. And YOU, oatmealpony, are an insensitive "idiot," who feels the freedom to use the word "cripple" after someone was offended, a wheelchair-user like myself, made very clear the analogy of the using the word "cripple." You've been reported to Youtube administrators.

[Tyza111]

oh now all people are getting offended by things just cause there "special" for example gay people didnt like the name fairy penguin so it was changed to little penguin and i think thats just bullshit and this is just about the same exept this is about wheelchair people and what tripod said wasnt offensive at all and oatmoealpony is right they didnt even make a joke about wheelchair people so let me ask you a question drewchioce is it so wrong just to mention a wheelchair person in a comedy song

[drewchoice]

yes; because just like "Gay" people, we are special. Sorry that no one invited you into the special club, but you have to be born or reborn into the VIP lounge.

Any one who frames a joke about being a loser, using a wheelchair-user as a tool to frame their loser status, is the biggest loser, like the comedians and all who think it's funny.

[calakarak]

everyones special.

im a kid with pimples and i didnt take offence when they said "a kid with pimples" i thought it was funny, which it was.

[drewchoice]

apparently losers love this self-effacing style of humor...

[calakarak]

and apparently you are angry and bitter.

why dont you give us a link to soemthing that you think is funny, and i'll point out how it is rude and not funny.

[drewchoice]

very angry and bitter, because it's kids, not adults, who think that THIS is funny. very angry and bitter, because it's kids who use the word cripple, like its just a word, w/out any derogatory imagery attached to it. very angry and bitter, that i cannot get on a plane right now and go face-to-face with those who choose to remain ignorant. very angry and bitter because NO, you cannot mention whoever you choose as part of your jokes on national television without repercussions.

[karnewarrior]

To add my voice in the discussion, I believe in equal treatment, within logical boundries. Obviously I'm not going to ask the guy in a wheelchair to go upstairs and get me a soda, but I'm not going to avoid poking fun at him any more than I avoid joking at black people or ate white people. Frankly, I don't give a fuck.

[oatmealpony]

way to overreact

let me point out what i was trying to say again

they are NOT making fun of wheelchair bound people

neither am i

THEY JUST MENTIONED IT IN PASSING.

If they had said "there was a black man" i wouldn't have gone "OH LOOK AT THAT THEY'RE BEING RACIST", would you have?

They never directly insulted, or even indirectly insulted the person in a wheelchair. They mentioned him. Briefly.

And why report me? I called you an idiot, yes, but you did the same thing to me.

[drewchoice]

do you read? read my comments...

and don't contact me anymore, cripple-hater.

[oatmealpony]

"Cripple hater?"

Someone hasn't been reading my comments at all.

Read them through and think about it.

I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE A QUADRIPLEGIC, YOU'RE LIKE ANY UNHANDICAPPED PERSON TO ME.

DO YOU KNOW HOW I TREAT 'NORMAL' PEOPLE WHO ARE NARROW MINDED & WHINE ABOUT THINGS THEY'VE JUMPED TO CONCLUSIONS ABOUT?

I TREAT THEM LIKE THE DIPSHITS THEY ARE. I'M NOT GOING TO FIDDLEASS AROUND AND GO 'oh no he can't use his legs i'll have to be extra nice!'

Grow some balls and stop using this an an excuse.

[linkingodfsc]

these guys are hilarious...

[RrabBaelgun]

And They Are So Much Better Live...

Their Harmonies Are Amazing And They All Rock...

They Were So Funny... None Of Us Could Stop Laughing...

Really I Think EVERYONE Should See Them Live... Its Worth It... Its Something I Will Never Forget.

[smartass566]

i saw them live at a proformance once they were great and so funny

[project2501b]

What a bunch of lame comic book nerds, they don't even know their comic book history. The last two times the Hulk has gone against Spider-Man, Spider-Man has gotten his ass handed to him. Royally. It's not even worthy of a discussion.

/comic book girl

[bennydawhiteboy]

wow you are a loser

[Muglez]

/cheer.

You, ma'am, win.

PS: The fact you put a slash before "comic book girl" makes me think you play WoW. Confirm/deny? :P

[project2501b]

A confirm on WoW, but, to be honest, the slashie was because I hang out on Fark way too much.

[Muglez]

XD What server are you on? O.o

[okojim]

oh my god..... i'm speechless.

[imaprofesser]

What a pisser =D Thank you.

[antzo8]

haha thats an awesome song. Tripod kick ass.

[Nukkinya]

haha i love tripod

[morgancheese]

it's funny at 42 seconds in, yonny puts his head on gatesy's shoulder!

i love tripod!!!!!!!!

[sadsadsadsadsad13]

Can you upload the song by Tripod but I don't know whats it's called but it goes, "I wish I had a shop.....That sold whatever whatever to someone..... I would name it something something...... And spend the day pointing it out to customers". Something like that.

[DogstarCinema]

ive looked for that song all over the net and cant find it fliping great song tho

"Radio Mentals"

[sadsadsadsadsad13]

Yeah I would be an awesome camp fire song. Thanks dude.

[okojim]

I love this song live! it's just such a fun song!

[Coolito]

I have seen these guys live damn there good up close and there also very friendly.

[juicechic]

nice! love the song but kinda short though:/

[Arejayomgzor]

wtf?! I used to own TWO t-shirts Scod has. This one and the Felix the cat one he wears in a different song.

[villageidiot500]

hate to break it to ya poppet but hes actually married

[pirateXpoppet]

ah. shit.

[pirateXpoppet]

i think i'm going to have to arm-wrestle my friend to see which one of us marries Scod.

[CSIoz]

Love it!!!

[nigellica]

I love Tripod! This version of the song is so much better than the one on their album

[suspendedchaos]

it's exactly the same, except i spose a bit more studio-refined and longer.

[nigellica]

But on the album one its mainly just Scod the whole time, this one has all three of them doing bits..... Yeah I probably pay waaay to much attention. But it is still better with all of them singing I reckon

[danniivi]

tripod rocks gotta love aussie humor

[Apetite4Destruction]

thank you!

i remember seeing this like a yr ago and i thought id never see it again!

ty

[ellieplowman]

awsome!

[drayka]

[nomigrace]

luv this song-go tripod! (p.s., does anyone know if theres anywhere you can download their music vids? For an ipod preferably...they don't seem to have it on their website)

[p23s3]

this is my favourite tripod song!

thankyou for posting! havent seen it since tripod was on tv like 4 years ago

[myllamagirl]

You're welcome. Glad you like it. It's one of my favourites as well

[cheekeymonkey]

[myllamagirl]

You're welcome, there's more to come after the holidays.
