  • HAHAHAHA WE DID IT!!!! See you next week for Pizzamas! Yes, the title of this video are the left-over interestitial bits of Smash Mouth's All Star that have not been part of Vlogbrothers titles over the last five months...and I guess that means WE'RE DONE?!?!? With whatever the heck we were doing!?!?
    Anyway, Pizzamas begins next week!
    Note: I made this video yesterday when there was not quite so much NEWS in the world, but honestly I don't know if I would have done anything different. I think it's very early to have many thoughts other than, like, compassion is not forgiveness...it is not something you do for someone else, but something that helps me understand the world better. And when I say I don't want Donald Trump to suffer, that includes with illness, but it also includes me not wanting him to suffer from the way he is terrified any loss of power, or that he mistakes cruelty for toughness, or that he seems to believe that illness is a character flaw.
    Donald Trump's suffering has caused suffering in the lives of millions of people, and not wanting him to be ill does not have any affect on whether someone is furious and sad and frustrated by the suffering his suffering has wrought.
    As for what his diagnosis means, I don't know. I am a little sick of the amount of uncertainty this year has brought, but I also don't have much choice in the matter, and I shouldn't pretend to know things when I don't know them.

    You and John's willingness to commit to at-first-glance silly stunts like this and make them meaningful, and your thoughtful perspective on growth, are what keeps me so interested in this channel. Despite me going through "phases" with other types of content, yours on this channel always seems timeless and just as engaging and beneficial to me as it always has been.

All communities have the potential to effect your life and affect your life for good and for ill. I don't know that I could say (nor for certain anyway) that this community has affected my life, but the example Hank and John set by donating various proceeds to charity, the clear love they have for each other, the unequivocal joy they feel for each other's successes, their commitment to building a community that holds people up, etc. etc. has effected my life.

    I was given the gracious opportunity to be on stage with you for trivia at Nerdcon Nerdfighteria a few years back ( "who's BALTO???")

    Now I have a full time job and full time life and while I'm subscribed to all the Complexly media, I only watch videos that I think might interest me in the moment.

    From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you. I am crawling my way out of a heavy and deep depression. This is something I have been doing for about a year. One of the milestones was the third videos with all star title, that was when I realized this was a thing and felt real, joyous joy. That made it clear to me that joy wasn`t a thing of the past. You brought back joy, and for that I love you. After the bringing back the joy, you made me curious and interested in what the next title would be. Curiousity and interest really hurts that lousy depression, so you really helped me there too. I choose to assign this tremendous value.
    Hank and John, you don`t know me, but you have really helped me in the six years my life was black and grey. Your videos gave me hope. Your videos taught me about Esther day. The first time I celebrated Esther day was two years ago, three weeks before my mother died. The last long conversation I had with my mother was the time I called to say "I love you". Remembering that conversation was one of the main things who started the process of getting me out of the depression.
    Congratulations on finishing this project and thank you.

    It's almost as though we are here for your content and awesome ideas you guys put forth from your unique perspectives and not how click baity your titles can be. In fact, I'd say I've watched even more of your videos of late because I had no clue what they were going to be about. I was curious!

  • @TheDannyHamilton
    @TheDannyHamilton 4 года назад +31

    About 5 or 6 videos into this series, it dawned on me what you were doing. At that moment, I wondered how far you’d take it. Just like that I was hooked. My engagement went way up as I anxiously awaited each new video to see whether you’d given up yet, or what creative way you’d make use of another lyric.
    While I celebrate the conclusion with you, I also sense a bit of loss. The loss of the familiar, and the loss of the anticipation. Regardless, I look forward to what pizzamas brings us, and the what this channel evolves to next.

    I have to say that the titles for the last 5 months actually encouraged me to keep watching.

    I actually subscribed during the Smash Mouth experiment. I really like the format of this channel, where you have a weekly check-in on whatever you're thinking about or whatever you're doing. It's inspired me to try and figure out how to incorporate that into my own workflow. I have found that I get new insight and strategy out of myself if I just take the time to check-in with myself. Out loud. To be able to get it out of my head, and figure out what's going on. What's good and what's not so good, and what I can do moving forward. I want to start a vlog series like this, but I don't have a good camera yet, and I'm scared. So maybe in the future, I'll get there.

      -good Audio is more important than Video
      - just start. You'll be bad in the beginning, but you'll learn way faster than if you just think about it (that's actually true for most things)

    • @emilymartin5418
      @emilymartin5418 4 года назад +1

      Talking things through to a camera can be so helpful. It's an unbiased and patient listener.
      I have a hundred video files that I'll never watch, let alone share, where I contemplated, vented, cried, debated with myself, and celebrated, sitting on my floor and holding my phone up in front of me. Doing that helped me figure out so much, gave me comfort.
      They say the best way to learn is to teach. I learnt about myself by explaining myself to a phone camera.

    the irony is that it's these videos that brought me back to vlogbrothers.
    I started watching this channel in 2011, and in 2014/15ish, my attention got pulled away from youtube to podcasts instead.
    I've been listening to the anthropocene reviewed for years, and when I downloaded tiktok, I re-met Hank as the "science-man" (through "don't eat grass").
    A few months ago, some of your All-star titled videos made it onto my recommendeds.
    I immediately was like, oh God what have these guys been up to now?
    and since then I've listened to most of dear Hank and john, and come back to the channel multiple times

Far from a 'founding' nerdfighter, but long enough to feel a place here, and to know I'll watch vlogbrothers until Hank and John decide they're done. I love our little corner of the internet, and hope it stays how it is forever.

      I dunno, I still feel like the title is trying to say something important and enlightening about life, even though it's very obviously not. Maybe it's just the way I read the words and there's also a lot of ands in the title, which tends to sound poetic and the but at the end feels quite important for it to sound like it's something very enlightening, although in reality it is literally nothing but a string of leftover words that mainly consists of conjunctions and articles.
