Shit Skeptics Say (Part 1 of 3)

Written by John Rael and Ross Blocher
Directed By John Rael
Cinematography by Karus Marshall-Walsch

I usually do 'crotch-kicking-comedy', so why do I feel like I've sunk a level by doing a meme?
Anyways, it was pretty fun to get together with a few fellow skeptics and point out all the 'shit' that we say. It's a fun way to celebrate skepticism while takin' the piss out of it. Also, there was SO MUCH material that I am currently editing two more editions of it (COMING SOON).

Special Thanks goes out to Wendy Hughes and Jim Underdown of the IIG for lending me their cool toys (Power Balance bracelet, Placebo Band, Dowsing Rods, Ghost Detecting Meter)

Hope you enjoy,
John

ps. Sorry about the lack of crotches getting kicked (those are also coming VERY soon)

p-ps. When I say "Written by John Rael and Ross Blocher" I mean that I (John Rael) came up with the idea and wrote a dozen or so lines, and then Ross responded by writing two FULL fuckin' pages worth!!! And he seems like such a nice guy :)

NOTE: Music in the background 'party' scene is Tim Minchin Canvas bags

Filmed with a Canon T3i

Is this poes law?

[skepticallypwnd]

@GegoXaren Totally, dude! As much as we are 'making fun' of ourselves, we are also mimicking ourselves to a razor thin degree of accuracy.

The only problem I have with this video is that it is called "Shit Skeptics Say". Should be "Relevant points skeptics are compelled to repeat"

"Mom, I want you to go to snopes.com" I have said that so many times, I believe I'm now blue in the face LOL.

[InfinityEnterprises]

it's sad that within the past week I've said all this! btw nice use of Tim Minchin in the background!

[niall142]

So, this is like.. a really accurate video.. I say all of these things!!

[STNKbone]

I didn't know Wolverine was a skeptic

[Yourgodssuck]

[TenchiJeff]

My girlfriend and I just had to explain to her sister why the world will not end in 2012. lol lol lol. Oh and Patrick Troughton was the best, not David Tennant!

[KristusTF]

@drfoxcourt Or replace complled with forced. :p

[TheBoyFromNorfolk]

Oh, Brilliant Comedy sir, Brilliant self parody to the max. As a Skeptic, until sufficient evidence shows otherwise, I'm subscribed, and enjoying it immensely.

[Canadianknight18]

David Tennant is the best? Hmmm, Tom Baker is pretty cool too!

[EudaemonicGirl]

@JoNnYShizzle Oh, how typical.
