  • Columbus Day was my b-day :)!

  • 4/5 :) Yay!

  • Hank, all the nerdfighter love in the world, but 1958 to 1977 isn't "more than 20 years". It is, in fact, less than 20 years. By 1.

  • Ok wait a sec y not make Halloween a federal holiday and get ride of Coulombs day 

  • Eh, nobody cares about Columbus day. They should really change it to Lief Erikson day, that'd be a day worth recognizing.

  • Forget Columbus! We need Leif Erikson day!

  • whaaat? we had school on colombus day!!

  • 4/5, meh

  • well we in India enjoy 2 whole weeks of holidays in October !!!

  • 3/5

  • Why does America get all the pointless holidays which allow kids days off school? We don't have any.

  • 2/5... I fail...

  • I had school on Columbus day...

  • @WelshGreen8225 same

  • HANK! What is the music?

  • Perfect Score Club

  • No school, HA, there is school, EVEN THOUGH IT'S CANADIAN THANKS GIVING, but this is America, and we don't care about other countries.

  • I still had school on Columbus Day. :(

  • @ConfidencePants me too :(

  • 4/5, not too bad...

  • Very much of a fail, 1 of 5...

  • I had School on Columbus Day :(

  • Is the poster on your door the mule from Serenity?

  • Awkward moment when I know what day Boss's Day is simply because it falls on my birthday. Stupid holiday trying to steal my spotlight.

  • 1977 is not more than 20 years after 1958

  • After wasting about a minute of my life, I realized I could click off this video.

  • My sister still had school on Colombus Day. She tried to convince me that there was no school that day. Lots of arguing. I told her to go to school and if there was no school then she could come back.

  • 3/5

  • 1/5. Obviously I need to study up on my October Holidays.

  • 0/5 ughhh

  • How is it silly?

  • My very first perfect score!!!! WOOHOO!!! I am so awesome!!!!

  • I'm dissapointed that my birthday wasn't included as a October holiday,

  • @SMILEYsaysDIE Me too! Except I have a December birthday. WHATEVER!

  • @SMILEYsaysDIE I am as well.

  • 4/5, w00t I guess

  • poor columbus...

  • 3/5 :/

  • In Canada we celebrate Thanksgiving on your Columbus day. I think since we can date european settlements in Canada to about 400 years before Columbus got lost and assumed he was in India we find celebrating Columbus rather foolhardy.

  • 1/5................ I'm ashamed,

  • Does anybody know where to get this music?? I like it very much.

  • 5/5. Being a psycho-analasis takes all the fun out of truthorfail.

  • Arhg I thought this was a vlogbrothers video. I am so confused.

  • University of Illinois doesn't get Columbus day off...because Columbus day is stupid

  • I didn't get Columbus Day off :'( I'm homeschooled oooh yeah

  • 3 out of 5!

  • All failures till the last. My wife was telling me the wrong answers....maybe.

  • Yeah, I had school.

  • i haven't heard of either of these holidays, guess time

  • 3/5 so much shame

  • Columbus Day isn't about Columbus. It's about the discovery of two new continents that nobody knew were there. It's about how much and how irreversibly that changed the world--and that is indeed worth celebration.

  • @SammiJbird 1 new continent.

  • @KungfuCow5 I was referring to North and South America as separate continents. I understand that there are some schools of thought which hold them to be one--There are, however, many people who believe they are two, and I am one of them.

  • in Canada we call Columbus Day Thanksgiving, oooh.

  • in the bay area, we call Columbus Day 'Indiginous People's Day', it's funny...

  • I'm LOVING the serenity poster! Browncoats ftw

  • I had school on Columbus Day... and I live in Florida... It was my Dad's birthday too so that sucked, couldnt go eat lunch or anything.

  • We don't have any holidays in October in France. =(

  • well done Hank, only 1/5 & even that is just because i know what the MILF acronym stands for...

  • Yeah, my school district has the choice between giving us a day off for Columbus day or giving us a day off for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and usually they pick the latter because he wasn't sort of awful.

  • Awkward moment when us English types have noooo idea what Columbus Day is...

  • @purplep30pl3eater Well, it's sort of like this, some people say "Hey! This great man found America and made it great in the name of all that is good!" while some (including myself) realize he was a brute leader who committed genocide on American Indians, then stole a lot of riches. Apparently that's something to celebrate over by not having school or work.

  • @purplep30pl3eater Oh ho! It's the day we Americans celebrate the voyage of Christopher Columbus; a man who miscalculated the size of the Earth and very nearly died with all of his crew, before running into Cuba. He is largely responsible for the silly practice of referring to the Native peoples of America as "Indians", while referring to actual Indians as "East Indians". It is slightly similar to the American practice of claiming that English people speak their own language with an accent.

  • @purplep30pl3eater A totally pointless holiday celebrating one of the biggest blunders in navigational history? I don't like it because I don't get off work or out of school. Screw you adulthood!

  • Can't play I'm mobile device

  • WTF

    Both my parents thought I had off on columbus day but I defiantly had school.

    I sat in APUSH and learned about other people who killed natives

  • I think my school may be the only school in America that makes us attend school on Columbus day...

  • @hmksprouse no, everyone goes to school on columbus day

  • National -Whatever-Blah- Days are not holidays. A holiday is a celebration or some sort of time taken off. Those other days are just meaningless attributions.

  • Aaaaa no links for mobile devices!!!!

  • 2/5

  • I still had school on Columbus Day, what a rip!

  • You think that Columbus Day is silly? Here in Melbourne, Australia we have a public holiday on the first Tuesday of November called Melbourne Cup Day where we basically get to skip work to go watch and bet on a horse race. But hey, no complaints here, we get a day off!

  • I THINK... I THINK... I THINK YOUR POSTER IS AWESOME! WOOO! SERENITY!

  • 5/5 Woo!

  • We had school on Columbus day. ಠ_ಠ

  • International schools laugh at Columbus Day. Even in America.

  • Serenity poster! yay!

  • Columbus day is after Leif Ericson day. Coincidence? I think not.

    Also, to celebrate Columbus Day we must enter other people's homes and claim them as our own.

  • Comment removed

  • 5/5 Yay! I know a lot about October.

  • Well it must be fact 2... he said "more than twenty years", but the tab showed 19 years...

  • My school always has minor holidays off, including Columbus day. I think it's a terrible idea to celebrate Columbus.

  • We didn't get Columbus day off of school.

  • a 20 second countdown timer???wtf

  • My school doesn't get Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Presidents Day, or Martin Luther King Day off. We do have a program for Veterans Day though. Last year I had to recite a speech in it.

  • all my life, except for college i had never received columbus day off

  • We don't get Columbus day off... we do get veterans day off though. The one time we got Columbus day off we didn't get veterans day, and the vets complained

  • Columbus Day: honoring America's most beloved terrorist

  • WHAT my school jipped me by having UEA on Columbus day!?

  • 3/5 :/

  • i'm from the Caribbean i don't know this shit!!! lol 0/5 here i come

  • You should keep your facial hair.

  • 4/5, this is quite bi-winning for me. This is my FAVOURITE game show, the COLOURS are quite interesting. ALUMINIUM is a good metal, but eating it made me go to the LAVATORY. It makes me feel like hitting my head on BITUMEN which is located next to the FOOTPATH (which is common to both but you know). No OFFENCE Americans.

    Anyway, G'day to all.

  • 5/5 Yay holidays!

  • 1958-1977 is not more than 20 years...

  • Comment removed

  • @psydney1997 Indeed it is 19 years, which is not more than 20 years, you fail at math not him.

  • @geurgeury Haha thanks for backing me up. I was concerned that I made a really dumb mistake, but yeah, 19 is not more than 20! :)

  • 3/5 mheee

  • 5/5! So exciting!

  • ohhhh, the great columbus day debate.... on another note, the plural form of mother-in-law is mothers-in-law, not mother-in-laws. sorry, grammar geek in me had to come out.

  • Damn iPod

  • The county I live in is predominantly Native American, so we don't get the day off. I'm actually happy that we don't recognize the "importance" of that so-called holiday.

  • Oh in my AP US History class we call Columbus day "Indian Genocide Day" because when Columbus came over, he and his men killed all of the Native Americans. Columbus even tested his swords' strength by cutting off the fingers of Native American children. Wow. What a wonderful guy to have a holiday for. Hey, at least we have no school.

  • 4/5 :)

  • I could have sworn Boss's day was the 17th (at least that's the memo that my boss sent out...)

  • my school still has school on colombus day
