  • i wish they still used this intro.

  • And since he left we can see in fact Musharaf was the best thing to ever happen to Pakistan...

  • All of those people would be great for the Evil Baby orphanage.

  • officially finished 2.0 and still going!<3

  • This would be an amazing and wonderful video except for the fact that John Green let me down by mispronouncing the name of Genghis Khan, which is correctly pronounced with a soft G as in generation, gentle, genie, and EVERY OTHER WORD IN ENGLISH BEGINNING WITH "GEN." There are no more words to describe how deeply this saddens me.

  • I just made it throught BrotherHood 2.0,Wah, but there's more, Yay, can anyone tell me how to get "next Video"... uh.. faster? or uh... faster than glacially?

  • @filmfan41 you've probrobly worked this out by now, but just in case, search for "vlogbrothers 2008 playlist part 1", filter by playliststs, and find one that that doesn't miss anything out. I'm using one by 'littleLdot' atm. DFTBA :)

  • @filmfan41 @SomeoneBeginingWithI If you're watching a video, you can also click where it says how many videos a channel has above the video, and when you click on the next one it will automatically start a playlist of all of their videos in order from the one you clicked on.

  • Yeah the intro is pretty cool. we'll see how it works out.

  • I just made it through Brotherhood 2.0!

  • Well it took a good part of my summer vacation and then some... but I can proudly say I have now seen every brotherhood 2.0 video. XD

  • 2:00

    boy, it's good that it's the 21st century then, isn't it...

  • So many bad leaders with mustaches.

    But John has a mustache in this video, and he's the co-leader of nerdfighteria...

    Quick, shave it before it takes over!

    (Clearly the mustaches turn people bad; it can't be a coincidence.)

  • @VolunteerNerdfighter Please see comment above yours. By the way, awesome username.

  • @Nerdfighterian lol, I see. Good thing it's the twenty-first century indeed.

    And your username is equally awesome. =) Best wishes!

  • Dear John: I was very sad to hear you say that Genghis Khan was bad. Now I'll admit, it isn't a good sign when a nine year old kills his half-brother, but I'll ask that you please read "Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World" by... I don't know who it's by. But please do, because I think it would change your opinion of him, and plus, who doesn't love learning about the Mongol empire, or learning in general :) DFTBA, not that I needed to tell you :)

  • I still think this is the best intro you've ever used :-)

  • "And yes I'm looking at you Prevez Musharaf."

    I hope he watched this video

  • I LOVE THIS INTRO!!!

  • john just so you know as of now (i just checked) you have 5,193 friends on brotherhood2 and hank has 4,790 friends on the website....things change ;)

  • john just so you know as of now (i just checked) you have 5,193 friends on britherhood2 and hank has 4,790 friends on the website....things change ;)

  • Yes I do like the intro, I MISS IT!!!! There isn't one anymore!

  • Here's to another two weeks spent archive-binging Nerdfighter.info

  • Ahh, I can now proudly say I recognize every clip in the intro! :D

  • @Lexicografia Me too I just finished ALL the B2.0 videos!!!! XD

  • Ironic that your video that briefly hinted the support of Obama had the "repeal Obama?" Ad right next to it.

  • COINCIDENTALLY, in my Topics of the 20th Century class, we claimed that the evilness of a dictator directly correlated to the ridiculousness of his facial hair. ALSO COINCIDENTALLY, though I only just started watching a month or two ago, I was taking that class when this vid was made, obviously, our brains connected anyway.

  • Now i've watched the first year's videos i know what all of the clips in the title sequence are from!! Yay!!

  • *Hugs* I'll be your friend, John!

  • hai. what video was 0:05 from? it looks kind of epic.

    love,

    a nerdfighter :)

  • Comment removed

  • @dikaroxmysox I *think* it was the video where they first announced the Happy Dance project. Not sure when it was from, though. Try around April.

    EDIT: I was way off with April. It was August 30th: v=EQCi2mi2gOQ

  • Start of second year!

    Actually, I did kinda like the first opening better.

  • (not that we're endorsing anybody)

  • R u a liberal???

  • What of Teddy Roosevelt, John‽

  • Lol I love that " Build a profile and become my friend!... because Hank has more friends than me and I'm sad."

  • @WildMossnose but your my favrite brother!!! jk i think you both so jokes and you never ftba. Ok. I'm done aleinating the new veiwers. lol

  • 2:00

  • why are u sooooo into Pakistan?!?..just wondering

  • man your knowledge about pak is too weak.

  • 'ning' means 'and' in Estonian :D

  • You committed a logical fallacy of a hasty generalization by saying that all leaders with mustache were evil, think of the cowboy stranger in Big Lebowski, he was definitely a legit good guy and a leader on his own! :D

  • I never noticed that

    world leader+mustash=worldsuck

  • You seem very bias and get all your news from CNN.

    You should listen to the other sides before you judge.

    Thanks. :)

  • pakistan people party (Benazir Bhutto's party) stole money from pakistani people and put them in swiss banks, and we pakistani's cannot forgive them for that, never, evar !

  • you did the next best thing, by electing mr 10% then. either your horribly stupid or um, yeah that must be it, unless you can explain how the highest office in your country is being run by a known corrupt politician.

  • bhutto's death was the best thing ever happened

    and i loved it

  • lol i have to listen to ur vids to go to sleep becuz i can only last about 7 hours with out watchin a vid of urs

  • What's the "site for question tuesday"? How can I find it?

    Thanks for answering my question, nerdfighters

  • Me and my friends have noticed the moustache thing but slightly differently we have the stupid moustache theory where it is how stupid the facial hair is that is the deciding factor in there evilness.

  • I LOVE NING!!!! I LIVE ON IT IM Mat and youl probably see me on the chat if your online because im always online alwaaaaaays

  • Moustaches on World Leaders in the 20th century :

    Winston Churchill : bad life hygiene, but not fundamentally bad

    Clemenceau : contributed to creating the first (and inefficient) version of the UN. Not that bad

    Charles de Gaulle : Took the head of the french resistance

    I guess it's only safe to assume that most world leaders (and men) originating from the first half of the 20th century wore moustaches. For the ones of the second half : ill fashion sense and/or outdated political references

  • wooo yoiur back well by time i started its been 2 years but your back all the same also GO NERDFIGHTERS

  • i love pakistan...u should watch "JINNAH " it stars christopher lee..its an amazing movie..U SHOULD DISCUSS PAKISTAN's history ..how it was made and the way muhammad ali jinnah made this nation while he was months away from death...watch it..its also on youtube as "THE STORY OF JINNAH" OR WATCH CHRISTOPHER LEE'S INTERVIEW ABOUT HIS FAV PERFORMANCE ..(IT MENTIONS EVERYTHING FROM PAST TO PRESENT"..IN MY OPINION..PAKISTAN IS JUST POTRAYED AS A "PROBLEMATIC PLACE" BUT IT ALSO HAS A DIFFERENT SIDE

  • Lloyd geroge had a mustache

  • LOL

    'its like cling only no one ever broke up with me for being too ningy'

    haha

  • they need to bring back the old intro

  • If moustache=BAD with 20th century leaders, what about Teddy Roosevelt?

  • NING

  • who are nerdfighters and what is nerdfighteria ?

  • Omg, I love how the Ning was once new news! We've evolved so much now!

  • comment 1 great new introw I saw the chin waxing in there!

  • Hot damn new intro

  • >_> sorry! When I have those kinda facts it just falls out....

    Buh in my opinion, I wouldn't want to meet any of them! (Except Stalin, I'd meet him just to kick his boot)

  • He united a very disogranized people and as a group they thrived. The people they invaded, however, kinda sucked to be them, but ghengis's group didn't do half bad. Also, it was his great grand child that worked with Marco Polo to help with a reasonable land route to get to China from Italy so they had a working trade system.... So at least his spawn was nice, even if he was a little blood thirsty

    (If I'm wrong about any of the above, please correct me!)

  • It's called a coup d'etat.

    Oh.

    You just said that, as I was typing.

  • john you're my hero. your high school prank was amazing

  • I've never noticed the correlation between mustaches and horrible leaders.

  • i can't find the link

  • Hank is totally not as cool as you

  • >_> buh we're all full of the same kind and amount of awesome, you have to say that. Jokeness does not say much in a person, but awesome is awesome no matter what.

  • i love how you looked soo surprised every time you said 'ning'

  • Comment 255:

    I like the intro!

  • it's kind of funny that Pakistan has had a female Prime Minister and the US hasn't had a female political leader.

  • Comment removed

  • Condoleezza Rice?

    Hillary Clinton?

  • well, i was meaning in the presidential sense

  • i miss your nerd glasses!

  • Ning!

  • I don't agree with you John, on Wilhem I. Of course he wasn't a very nice man and he did start WW I, but only because Russia, France and England were closing in on Germany and trying to pressure that country and stuff...

  • Was this the first time you said "asshat"??

    Then you used it in let it snow :D

  • he uses it in paper towns, too!

  • he forgot castro!... (really late on this comment as i didn't know they were going to continue doing videos... and i'm almost a year late!)

    and haha.. he's an obama man. cute.

  • i luvvvvv........... the intro

  • I love Ning because it's like abbreviating Nerdfighting. :)

  • I love this day for one reason..

    This video just proved that John Green was smarter than Hillary Clinton.

    John,

    ILY!

    DFTBA

    (:

  • I like how most of the vids in the intro are punishment vids

  • asshat.

    best insult ever.

  • I think sitzpinkler is better. Lol

  • yeah, that is a good one.

    but the image i think of when i hear "asshat" is more satisfying for me..

    *stick figure with a 'w' on his head*

    makes me giggle every time.

  • It's just so visual. ha.

  • i love it, it has curd fighter nurt!

    "brotherhood 2.0 joke, brotherhood 2.0 joke"

  • I was just reading about Pakistan today and it's obvious that some media outlets have a pro-Musharov bias. So happy John did a rundown of the situation for the less politically aware [ME!!!!!]

  • Oh my god, KURT is in the new intro! And so is the shirtless dance! And the goth picture! And the waxing!

    I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

  • so this is the first one with that intro

  • i remember when that happened. i was in india at the time and it was a big deal.

  • AHAHA, well, Hank has fewer friends than you now. You have 3009, and he has 2288. FTW! John, you're my favourite....not Hank :P

  • hey john, i was just wondering, once paper towns comes out and all the hype has died down ... do you want to come to my high school and teach history? :D

  • XD No, mine!

  • "ning" means still in my language.

    so that's jokes.

  • everytime he says "political situation in..."

    i expect him to say Nepal next.

    so everytime he says Pakistan, it throws me off just a little bit.

  • i think the motto should be

    "just because we're less frequent, doesn't mean we're less awesome."

  • it feels so different.

    i mean, i watch the current vlogbrother videos,

    but I just finished brotherhood 2.0 and this feels...idk how to put it....its like i'm still watching brotherhood...but i'm not....

  • 5 months late but: I love the intro!!

  • ning was my great-great-uncles nickname. lol.

  • YES I LOVE IT!! The music is so cool!

  • new intro:made of awesome

  • you guys need to do another brotherhood 2.0

    but, you can have minimal texting because you say that it was difficult last year

  • Ning sounds like something they would say on Monty Python - The Nights who say Ning :)

  • I need help with some questions I have for a Term Paper in College on the topic of Pakistan. I've got a ton of books and articles but I would like to ask someone some questions who has been to Pakistan or who is from Pakistan that knows a LOT about "Political Forms of Violence" and "Social Demographics" of Pakistan. I won't need the help after 4/26/08, Thanks :)

  • Stubble looks good on John. <3

  • That new intro is ridiculously amaz-ning.

  • new intro is so jokes

  • Yay for new nerdfighterly conduct starting on my birthday?

  • yay for an abundance of katherine!! this is a reference to the book, i'm still reading it but i <3 it! lol

  • Okay, Im from New York, and I remember 9/11. Since then I desided to block out bush, and the whole war except for my friends dad being in the war. I reasentally (Beginning of 2007)I started watching the news more and reading the newspaper about the situation and I came across this video from a friend, and it helped me understand a little more on what is going on in Pakastan, not Ira, or Iran, Pakistan, you rarely hear about Pakistan, So Thank you.

  • the new intro is awesome.

  • wow, you actually made the political situation in Pakistan interesting to me. if anyone else had tried to talk to me about that kind of stuff, I would never have listened, but this is John Green we're talking about. everyone should hang upon his every word.

  • omg same here

    x]

  • schooling made of awesome

  • Random fact about Kaiser Wilhelm II: He had a stumpy arm which is the reason that the photo was taken at the angle that it was - it diminishes the obviousness of his stumpy arm. Yeah.... I told you it was random.

  • Also if anyone else was in a picture with him he made them hide their left arms like he did. strange man

  • butt had tosh!!!!

    Lol

  • "Because hank has more freinds than me and im sad -_-" lols...

    funny... "site name that you made from 'ning'"?

  • jammy-pants at 3:10 pm FTW.

  • even i love this videos its kind hard to get it cause i live in brazil and its hard to get it what he says when e speaks fast.

    but its really nice

    a question.

    what do you think of brazil?

  • i think brazil is a country full of valubal resources that need to be conserved. the rainforest offers wonderful medicines and is a habitat to thousands of animal species, most of which we havn't discovered yet. i think the brazilian government needs to do a better job on conserving the forest rather than letting the susistence farmers hack up the land &screw the ecosystem after the soils minerals are used up. but i'm not john. ps- i think brazilian soap operas (tellenovels- right?) are stupid.

  • You go back in time to inform your Dec 2006 self that the project he is about to undertake will grow much larger than you anticipated, that you will develop a sizable fanbase who reference themselves after a strangly-named game. He than proceeds to shoot you. Why?

  • you are better in every way than hank

    nuff

    said

  • I love the new opening.

    NING!!

  • I LOVE IT AND YOU

  • My smiley's... NOT bad!! :{DDD

  • hmmmmmm, bhutto will always be remembered. she died for her cause and for her countrymen. shes is a complete example of what a strong women leader is capable of.

  • at least the Mr. bill admitted to fucking some hoe. shit, what man wouldnt. we tell ourselves he shouldnt be president but then we are the hypocrites because we will fuck any hot piece of ass in our way. the same wanabes voted for bush, bush failed to lead them. now they are after hillarys throat, so they can get mcain. America is so hooked on the media! just look at Ms. Spears.

  • Quite interesting, my first time watching, i liked it, the rapid fire concise manner in which you tackled multiple issues thru edited material was flawless and you left no points unspoken. WELL DONE! GREAT JOB!!

  • and now we have the so called media invading youtube, and giving spreading there messages about why you should vote for this person and why you shouldnt vote for some one else. shit everything is so fucked up nowadays. every politician is a crook. we all get those dirty urges, politicians are the same. they can portray themselves to be saints. and we can look at them like that, but in reality there just like us. you can call ron paul a crook but who isnt? do you really think obama is a saint?

  • now probably mcain will win this presidential election because it will most likely be rigged. then we will start world war 3 by invading the more muslim countries, because we want to stay on the offense. but wheres the defense? look at the way katrina was handled. if a terrorist attacked at a large scale will our country be able to deal with it this time, since we are actually in a recession?

  • The same Ron Paul who's taking campaign contributions from Oil and Gas companies, pharmaceuticals, and other lawyers and law firms?

    Ron Paul is hardly a blip on the map. He's a wannabe sellout. And that's the worst kind of sellout there is.

    (Oh, and just so you know, Brzezinski endorsed Obama, he's not advising him. L2facts, Ron Paul.)

  • who will take over nerdfighters when u like disapear?

  • I agree with you. Bhutto was not ideal, but given the options pakistan had when she was a candidate, she was the best one.

  • @FlaviusAetiusII Pakistanis elected her twice before 9/11

  • Ning is a fun word to say...NING NING NING NIIINNGG!

    I love you

    x

  • hi i am from Karachi,PK and Musharaff he is a big bug for our country..

  • honestly,

    I was bored out of my mind listening to that

    but, thanks, now I no sumthing about politics.

    lol.

    There were some funny moments.

  • "...the guy who gave us such wars as World War 1"

    Thats really an amazingly clever and funny sentence!

  • I really enjoy the way you present your information and opinions. Congrats on your success and popularity, keep up the good work. Peace from BC Canada!

  • is it me or is this nerd cute?

  • NOPE I TOTALLY AGREE

    HE'S SUCH A HOTTIE MUAHAHAHAHAHA

    i love you!!!!!

  • ah! i thought i was the only one!

    way to go john, you're the cutest nerd on the internet. officially.

    is he married though....? are you john?

  • yes, He's married to Sara(h?) a.k.a. The Yeti

  • this comment just shows your ignorance.

    hillary is in her 60s, meaning there's a HUGE possiblity she has no more periods. and hussein is just a name, and a name only, not a mark of terrorism. so stfu, you troll. and go fuck your cousin like you always do.

  • ning... love it! lol *looks at my name*

    Just because we're less frequent, doesn't mean we'll be better. lol

  • to be fair, the man that you're endorsing thinks that there's a president of Canada...

  • Lol! No-one ever broke up with me for being too ningy, Hank is more popular than me ,That made me sad. :D:D:D:D

  • lol, jammy pants!

  • wow! GREAT vid!and I totaly agree about everythig you said about Pakistan.... :( :(

  • HAHA!! LOOK AT HIM!! HE *IS* AN ASSHAT!

  • Just full of awesome...thats all.

  • Just because we're less frequent, doesn't mean we'll be better.

  • you can grow a beard but I know it's you RICK MORANIS

  • sweet video! u guys are THE coolest "nerds" in the world!

    plz look at my channel, i need the views and suscriptions

  • "It's like cling, only no one ever broke up with me for being too ningy." lol

  • wow... I don't have any friends on the site... I'm a noob. *pout*

    But I am soooooooo checking out all the awesomeness of the site this weekend.

  • the "ningdom" of nerdfightaria
