GEEKING OUT Over Dying Declarations

Beckoning of Lovely info: http://bit.ly/aGwT7v

In which John goes completely nuts over the publication of the brilliant reference source LAST WORDS OF NOTABLE PEOPLE, which includes the last words of everyone from William Faulkner to Robert Frost to Benjamin Franklin, and which you, too, can own: http://amzn.to/cYxay8 (And no, they did not pay me to make this video. I just GEEK OUT OVER THE LAST WORDS OF FAMOUS PEOPLE, as you already know if you've read Looking for Alaska.)

John, I dont think this really qualifies as meeting you but I bagged your groceries in Kroger like 5 months ago... You seemed cool...

John's eyebrows are extremely sexually frustrating.

I meet both you and Hank in Houston about a month ago. I got a high five from Hank and I can't help but feeling like, for that one minute, I was made of nothing but pure awesome.

Unfortunately haven't met you askaesfdgjktegrlkwgsfva due primarily to lack of vlogbrothers in England, damnit! I'm afraid I must leave this comment, due to a pressing engagement involving afternoon tea, the queen, and extensive amounts of top hats. I bid you farewell, comment.

Apparently I'd been so excited about TFIOS that every time I mentioned it to my mom, I said it really fast and didn't articulate. I finally lent her the book, and when she read the title, she told me that she had thought the book was called "The Falkner Stars." His last words reminded me :)

@MashaSobaka I have social anxiety as well. I find getting to know people in anyway on the internet makes it easier. YOU CAN DO IT

I met John, and it was sort of like "....I can't talk." I was too overwhelmed by the awesomeness of the situation to muster up anything else. And then he said "Yeah, I'm really awkward right now too." I don't even remember what I said to Hank.

i wish i could meet you john :O too bad you dont come to Canada very often.

[EpicLeeChill]

I was so nervous meet you in real life cause i didn't know what to say i just wanted to shout out OMG ITS JOHN AND HANK and give you hugs but unfortudenly there was a table between us and about 1000 people behind me and i didn't think it would be fair that i would be the only person bold enough to jump over a table to get hugs (and then maybe arrested). I chocked up around hank all i could do was smile and give a thumbs up...i need a redo for that so i can say THANK YOU AND BEST WISHES~~!!!!!!!!

I have met you both! It was very cool actually. I met you during the TFiOS tour! The meeting was short, as there were a few hundred people behind me in line. And I would have loved to have the chance to talk to you more. But! In the 30 or so seconds I did get to speak with you, you made an effort to actually speak to me. I really appreciated that. It's always heartbreaking when you get the chance to meet someone, and they don't even look up at you. To answer your question! It was incredible :)
