1:40 You go do what?!😭
4:10 love the head lice stayed splat on the wall when you move down
😂😂😂
Or maybe the 1990s were just a brief bizarre time in history when head lice flew in perfectly still swarms.
@RaymondStone lice dont fly
It was scared of that stupid comb that always ripped all your hair out
And right before that he's says " if you look closely" as if to be self referencing the issue with what I believe is a double entantra.
Being in the school systems throughout the 2010s was crazy because you genuinely grow up watching it change from physical to digital
I know
Facts man like really saw school change in real time 😂😂😂😂
Facts like all of these I had in elementary but once I got to middle school it was mostly gone by highschool it was all gone
I started school in 2015 and then projectors were still the majority in school, but by the time I left primary school in 2022, (elementary school to Americans) almost all of the projector boards were replaced by these flatscreen television things.
1:00 You guys wanna hit some WHAT?! 😂
HE SAID THE N WORD
I heard the same thing but he said digers 😂
@Rdude_yt1dinger*
You forgot to mention the best thing about textbooks was that we signed our names on them on the inside cover with the school year, and someone - even an enemy that hated you - from the grade before you came up to you somewhere. Usually on the playground. And said “hey I got your math book” and you’d both marvel at this like it was the greatest coincidence in the universe. And you were both like oooooooooooo 😂😂😂😂
Uhhh?
Not a clue what this dude was trying to say must be on crack 😂@clockworksflight
Lord I was a 2000’s kid and even till I graduated on the names section I’d always see Michael Jackson and it’d say black and then white on it even old teachers of mine still see it
Yeah we didn't do that at my school, we just wrote in funny names.
Most of the books we had were dated from the 70's and I was in school in the 2000's they added extensions to the signature part of the books.
i had a history teacher who was old and grumpy and used the overhead projector every class. when we held our graduation ceremony, we handed out awards such as "class clown", "the sport guy", etc. my history teacher and his projector won the "most popular couple of the year"
As an old clown I must too concede that its not a clown thing. I've never used an over head projector in my life (Edit: I won class clown)
I remember a very old and worn-down overhead projector from my highschool. It had a very loud fan on the inside, and from time to time the light kept blinking off and causing the display to disappear. The only solution for making the light turn back on and for the display to reappear was to run up to the projector and to punch it on the side. It was so annoying. So one day I sat at a desk right beside the projector so that I could be the hero who keeps punching it and bringing the display back. It saved a lot of time for the teacher and everybody else. My knuckles got tired of punching the damn thing.
4:11 I like how the animation of his hair gel wasn’t made into a symbol with his character and is just left behind 😅
... I mean it's not getting changed I can tell you that
The nurse scared it away ig
Lmao 😂
@brewstew It makes it more funny honestly, the lice didn't want to deal with your hair it looks like
There was a split second when I thought that flying swarm of head lice was intentional until the fact that it didn't move made me realize what was going on.
1:00 had to register to that 3 times cause I thought I heard a specific word, lmao
Same but I think he said dingers
@xenn2996 yeah, he either said diggers or dingers
Same but at :40 when he says Goosebooks
Lol
I still don't know what he said but he's from Ohio so we ball ig
0:47 One time in middle school, my science book dissappeared (I think from my locker), and I went nuts trying to find it. I eventually told my science teacher, she got mad at me for loosing it, gave me another one, and it turned out to be my missing textbook. She didn't like me, and I didn't like her
The overhead projector was more common in high school for us. Before than we had to decipher our teacher's med school dropout level chalkboard scribbles. The introduction of the projector meant we ended up having to copy like 3x as much stuff because the teacher no longer had to share in our carpel tunnel syndrome.
1:00 i was half paying attention, i didnt hear dingers at first. Scared me for a second
I def heard something else bro lmao!
Lmao same I was doing something and went :0
I had to rewind 😂
I came here to say the same thing making food and watching brew stew be getting to me
same
4:19 I see the budget has increased.
Right after the hair gel flakes float in midair at 4:10
do one about a chocolate milk bag during lunch
@gwaoop9583that wasnt 90s we had cartons
"Put that fuc*ing flame thrower down you are scaring me!"
This man is my spirit animal.
@gwaoop9583A fucking what?
5:16 No! The 90s were a lawless wasteland and people NEED to know why we're all so messed up now! 🤣
2:07 Billy must of talked so much he wrote his own name down XD, what and honest cop
Text books still exist in school and we don't do head lice tests anymore. You got to do that stuff at home
Yeah, I'm in high school right now, most classes don't have textbooks but Social Studies still has the textbooks bigger than Texas.
I'll never forget the whole class laughing because when my friend opened his textbook, a previous owner had drawn blue ink all over some historic figure and wrote in a comic bubble, "I Blow Smurfs".
0:25 they still are, but they are basically just decorative
More like "when the Internet is down we have to improvise, those are the backups"
More of the decrepit old lady that doesn’t understand computers makes us use them and in niche subjects like ag mechanics and physics
@bluemootang3239 no they’re still used regularly
@Idragballs670sometimes, I was going to mcgavock HS in TN and we alternated but in the last years the basically full transitioned to online books
As someone who's in school nowadays, we still use them. Chromebooks are used for extra learning
"Im not your dad" still gets me
Public school in the 90s is worthy of many episodes.
2:59 that got me, I laughed, love Brewstew
You know it’s going to be a legendary BrewStew film when Tyler starts with “alright”
Ok.. He starts like every video with "alright"?
While the Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air theme plays in the background.
@Topher7lol Also he's like a white Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air.
@Topher7lolwe’ve got a Michael over here
@ dude what... I'm just saying that he starts every video with "alright" I'm not trying to be a dick
4:55 In 7th grade, we had a scoliosis check and my teacher said to me in his deep voice “That’s a nice back you got there.”
When was that a thing? I'm not sure that telling a 13-14 yr old boy or girl to take his/her shirt off without parental consent would fly today. I'm just now hearing about it. Maybe it's a regional thing too idk ....
@chargeentertainment2981our parents had to sign something i remember.
hell nah😭😭 freaky ash
Lol, I remember those. It felt weird af standing there completely naked.
@chargeentertainment2981It does require parental consent, and in some areas it's required you get checked by someone else if you don't want to get checked at school
I love the head lice flying
What could you possibly want, quality control in my Brewstew animations? Sit in the corner of shame for 5 minutes!
I never had head lice, but my sisters would. Every time they got it my step dad would take us 1 by 1 to the bathroom, have us hold a towel up to our face and pour kerosene in our hair and we'd have to sit there for 5 minutes until he rinsed it out. And the lice in their hair would be dead.
@Ryzawa no shit he says that he makes shitty internet cartoons and go cry about it
And so many people have said the same thing
@ Don't go edit your comment to change the tone entirely to take what I say out of context on purpose, then crying to me about it whilst telling me to cry about it, literal hypocrite wallet warrior tactics.
Tf is wrong with you? Eagerly looking to argue in a yt comment section, I don't care as much about it as you clearly do dawg 💀 go smoke a newport bud
4:10 I love how the lice stayed on the wall when you walked away
4:46 It’s TRUE THOUGH, LICE PREFER CLEAN HAIR 😭 That’s why the ‘clean’ kids are more likely to get lice
You have dirty hair: You get maggots
You have clean hair: You get lice
Yeah pretty much. Easier for them move around.
Ive had lice god knows how long and my hair is dirty as SHIT 😭😭✌✌
Just stringing us along for the Book-It story. That's okay, I love all of it!
hes basically alluded 2 book it 4 several yrs. now. its like x-files neva actually showin the aliens seas. afta seas. 🙂
Ahh public schools, the only place to teach you absolutely nothing, feel like prison and at the end gives you a piece of paper and says good luck
Too real…
I won't deny that American education is fucked but honestly I think that's really just you
Only thing i got out of public school were how to fight first broken heart and life long friends thats about it😂
Hey now that's not true! I learned plenty of things in school,
Like people are shit! How much I hate waking up early! How horrible adults could be! And a bunch of pointless things they forced you to do that sucked ass that were completely useless and a waste of time!
Dude! Your not aloud to speak the Truth on the internet!
book fairs, the parachute in the gym, using shaving cream on the desk, field day and the mega parties
I was in school in the early 2000's and recall all of what you mentioned. I remember when (in middle school) they started using smart boards, instead of the old overhead projector. In elementary school, one of the kids was asked to solve a math problem and actually wrote on the pull-down screen, so for the rest of the year, we had to deal with this number on the screen whenever we used it.
I love how we did / had most of these things in my old primary school less than a decade ago
New Brewstew? Best Friday ever lol
Apparently he doesn't realize that you have to gently wipe down a scratched disc with a tissue that has a bit of hand sanitizer on it.
Fr
@Comradetanker Especially since he's just white Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air m
Right? Seeing this video made my week.
@smb-SuperMarioBrandon_DeSanta what?
2:25 i was in 9th grade back in 2019 and my earth science teacher used one of those projectors. wonder if she still uses it.........................................
As a high school student, we still have those massive textbooks but we don’t get our own, we share them
I Love the Overhead projektor
Nah , the worst part about the overhead was almost falling asleep by the end of the lesson then the teacher switches the lights back on and instant flash bang 😭😭😭
I appreciate the Royal Tenenbaums picture on the wall 😂
RIP, Gene Hackman 🪦
2:15 anyone notice how Billy even wrote his own name down? 💀
"See page 69" is a classic
2:57 I know that pain all too well, even now in high school, taking notes
The "kid cops" authority part was spot on man. I swear we lived identical lives. Lol. But mine was here in the Dirty South, NC. Lol
This reminds me of South Park, when Cartman becomes Dog, the Bounty Hunter, when they made him hall monitor lol. It was on like 2 nights ago. Hilarious episode. How they made Beth, too 😄 😂
u get the dog ep. is actually like 17 yrs. old rite? 🙂
The sequel we never knew we needed
Nah, I knew I needed ghos
You make this Millennial proud and I love your stories.
HELL YEAH LIMP BIZKIT
IT'S ABOUT WHAT HE SAYS, SHE SAYS, BS 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
@LolItsAMe28I THINK YA BETTER QUIT, TALKIN THAT SHIT🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
BEFORE YA WIND UP WITH A FAT LIP
Your cartoons were a lifesaver for me this past couple of weeks! I recently started grad school and was in the middle of residency, I was super stressed and was struggling to laugh and find joy in things when I was not stuck in a zoom meeting. I found watching your cartoons at night before going to sleep and watching them in between studying helped me smile, laugh a little, and forget about my responsibilities for a short time.
Thank you for helping me keep my sanity during this busy time! You're the man!
I loved. Absolutely loved. When the headover projecter came out. I lived for using the blue marker and coming up to write letters on the blank sheet to practice printing in first grade. I abs lived for it. I loved the sight and the sound and the heat of it.
4:10 i'd be scared too if i saw a kid walk to me but the lice stayed in the air.
Keep the 90s public school stuff going!
1 ) Lice checks - Yup
2 ) Write your name on the chalk board - yup
3 ) FLUORIDE "swish" the school nurse would pass out in these stupid little ketchup cups - you missed the one
4 ) School eye exam and hearing exam - yup
5 ) Stupid scoliosis check - More like weirdo check.
6 ) 50lb back-back with massive books - yup
7 ) Forced to put on book covers - yup
8 ) "narcotics dogs" ran through the hallways of middle school lockers. - yup
9 ) Stupid assigned seating in lunchrooms - check
The timing of this video is hilarious .....Department of Education got shut down today xD
Love how I had that exact social studies textbook in elementary school.
Heck yeah more 90s school stories‼️‼️‼️‼️
As someone who is about the same age as you I love the 90's school videos. Brings back memories and shows the world what pointless crap we went through.
1:53 I like to think we stressed the teacher out so much they were out back smoking a cigarette
0:53 Those books would be so damn heavy it was like carrying a cinder block for each book
Fr bro, I literally just started leaving them at home so I didn’t have to carry them
I was one of those psychopaths who kept everything in their backpack and I definitely gave myself some minor chronic back pain as a result.
I miss my youth.
Finding past doodles in a textbook is like stumbling across a cave painting from ancient times. The fun part is going to the front of the book and reading off the years that the book was used, and seeing that the only other student to use the book used it twenty years before.
im glad that i got to experience all of this back in the day
1:00
I did a double-take and had to turn the captions on just to make sure I didnt hear what I thought I heard.
😂🤣
Same
MANNN I STG
I think he said dingers
@xenn0426 he definitely did say dinger but man we all know what it sounded like 😂
Thank you for noticing lol
You are the best RUclipsr I’ve ever seen keep it up.
W in the sigma chat
@Michael-v5b-q5c michael dude im ur biggest fan
@Michael-v5b-q5chi micheal
Awh yeahhh been watching since 8 I'm 12 now 😂
@Michael-v5b-q5c YES MICHAELLL
God damn Overhead Projectors. There was one time in where one of those bulbs in there just keep blowing up and it was loud as hell. And they keep replacing the bulb with some old bulb they find in the back and that keeps blowing up. She blew up 4 bulbs before she stopped using the projector for the day because all the students where covering their ears up like a live grenade was going to blow any second and no one was learning anything.
They had those things in the '60s. They were hard to see, but so bright you needed welding goggles.
I was born in 2001 and I remember being in Third Grade and the bulb on the overhead blew up and this kid named Nathan was sitting next to it and somehow the broken glass flew onto his arm and cut him and he was bleeding a little bit
Part 3! Do It!! your compliance will be rewarded
4:27 do not feed😂
Although it's March, Another brewstewfilms video in the same month feels like another Christmas miracle.
Couldn't of worded it better
As someone that works in an elementary school.
Yes they just use chromebooks, and they mess around with it. Last week I caught a kid watching Elf on Dailymotion, and got his Chromebook taken away for a few days.
There’s usually at least 2 teachers per class room. The real teacher and the helper teacher (me) so when the real teacher has to leave I’m in charge by default.
Every room has a smart board now.
I only started working at the school this year, and haven’t heard about any lice checks
4:10 I think you left your lice behind
LOL
I saw that too.
I thought i was the only one 😂
Lice was like a rite of passage, because everyone usually got it and my parents would talk how their whole class got it
Absolutely love these. So many messed up memories.
We definitely need a part three let’s go
The “LA Looks” hair gel.
I feel attacked a little bit. 🤣🤣🤣
Now I know it wasn’t just me 🤣
@
You’re not alone brother.
One of my friends has a trapper keeper so I said "What is this, the 90's?" Lmao
they stil sel them?!
Learning how to line dance was an essential
Back in my day...the 1990's were wild
If only I was brave enough to line dance with that girl I liked back then... Stupid me.
LMFAO yes! We did square dancing too! And the electric slide! Why did we have to learn this?
Yeah no, FUCK line dancing. We had to do that shit in the 8th grade in 1993. It literally scarred me for life and is 100% why I hate that so much today. Even when my wife wants to, I’m like nope. Not doing some line dancing bullshit.
4:11 bros hair gel spaced out for a second
This is typically the type of conversation you would get late at night drinking with your buddy at your backyard
3:21 Hey my science teacher has one of those
Me too
Same with every practical
I had an old lady busdriver who, on more than one occasion, stopped on the side of the road, got out, and directed traffic. Our little asses would be just sitting there, starting at eachother in disbelief. I had a middle aged snaggle tooth, wall eyed dude busdriver who had a weirdo crush on my afterschool care gorgeous college aged counselor and would have me take letters to her. To this day I have no clue what they said but it couldn't have been good. God bless the 90s
In kindergarten my bus driver was an old dude who wore a train engineer hat and scared the ever-loving fuck out of me. There was one older kid, maybe 14ish at the time, who he hated for whatever reason. George would stop the bus and walk to the back, grab the kid by his shirt, scream in his face, and throw him back in his seat. I was terrified of him, but there was a super sweet senior who'd come sit with us up front to make us feel better. Hope she's doing well these days. The following years we had a lady driver who was pretty alright other than her somewhat unendearing proclivities for chewing tobacco and driving under the influence
Just saying when I was a senior (which was last year) we did have English textbooks, but we weren’t required to use them. They basically gave us free paper to start fires with
Please keep doing these as much as you can
Brooooo all of it complete nostalgia
Tyler, I recently lost my Nana… she was my best friend and the first woman I ever loved (with my mom)
There hasn’t been much of a reason to be happy lately… this has definitely been the lowest point of my life so far.
This video was the first time in weeks I genuinely laughed. Belly laughed.
Thank you, man.
Keep up the great work, brother!
Just remember they wouldn't want you feeling that way. Just love and let go, they're not gone and you will see them again. Live.
It sucks to lose people we love... I now how you feel, surprised you could work up a laugh! But eventually, you'll laugh more.
When I was about 21, and lost someone important to me, I ask someone I trust, how long it takes to forget...
He replied, "You never forget, you just make friends with the memories!"
That advice has served me well for many, many years. I wish you the best on your journey.
Sorry man...its cool when someone or something pulls you up when you dont think you could get any lower...be as strong as you can be & be good to yourself...by having a belly laugh today youre starting to heal
@spartacuslagomorph3115I’m sorry for your loss
Stay strong my guy
5:00 look a priest's dream
2:50 broooo ive been thinking of what that movie was when they smashed the computers in the field. i keep referencing it with no knowledge of the name haha thank you.
what is it from?
@jas0n_.2008 tbh i dont even remember haha i just know this movie about office workers and they smash the printers and computers in a field to the song "die mother fucker die mother fucker die" haha i was more than likely to young to even be watching it.
Office Space
I loved the over head projector my favorite the class was dark and quite
I love this topic it’s so realivant
2:45 we have a camera and projected to the smartboard nowdays
My high-school biology teacher convinced a girl in our class that the smart board could read his mind. How she never saw the slate he used is beyond us. She's a teacher now.
Most schools still have the overhead projector. You just went to a good school
Hey uhh, so my older brother actually taught me about this channel and i loved it just as much as he did. He passed away August 3rd, 2023. Thank you for this memory.
Sorry for your loss
2:30 *THE GODDAMN OVERHEAD PROJECTOR*
*AHHH*
I was in grade school in the early/mid 80s and your video still applies to my childhood. I was part of CPO (Campus Police Officer) in 6th grade and every day during recess, I picked up my red sash labeled CPO and a note pad from the main office and wrote down names of any kids who was misbehaving. What a narc!
1:25 I figured you were talking about safety patrol
Woah diary of a wimpy kid reference
Brad Neely reference at 1:10.
Hell yeah.
I thought that sounded familiar
2:35 in my mind that meant ceiling projector- if it had been a desk top projector I would’ve gotten it
Bring on another awesome 90's video! Great stuff 🤣
I had pleasantly forgotten about Lice and Scoliosis checks
Books? Hell, they don't even have lockers anymore!
wait what?
Yes we do lol why do old people think that schools don't have anything. We still have lockers, we still have separate desks, we still use textbooks, we had coatrooms
we do still have lockers and books i have no idea where you got the impression that we dont
2:59 those who can still read it: 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Cut 20 pounds in a week mma fighter style. Went to chipotle after weigh ins and made the biggest burrito those employees have ever seen. Best video to watch while I devour this monstrosity
I was a grade school student in the 80s and we had the Bookit program back then too.
Sometime in the early 2010s I got one of the personal pan pizza book it things. The pizza hit different.
Wow I can’t wait for the third one
Love the fact even billy had his name on the board
I remember those exact books
1:50 and it was always the loud kid that snitched on everyone else.
a brewstew video? what a great way to end my sunday 💯💯
Scoliosis checks were the worst. When I joined the army in 2003 we were still using over head projectors in the army.
