The fact that the "let's be mermaids" episode of Dear Hank & John became a real shirt that John wore makes me so happy. The world is a wonderful and weird place.
Happy to be a relatively new nerdfighter. Binging this channel is a blast! So much knowledge, awesomeness, and genuine care. Keep up the great work guys. Also hi nerdfighteria!!
Welcome to nerdfighteria!! Tuataria.com where lots of cool nerdfighteria stuff happens (sorry I edited it so many times, I couldn't get the link right)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOHN! You have had a great effect on me and on a lot of other people with things you've said, GIRFable moments, what you've done and how you've done them. In you I can find inspiration, enlightenment, and at times motivation. Turtles All The Way Down is my favourite book and possibly the first time I've easily decided on a favourite. I have something you said about mental illness on my wall because it gives hope, reminding that there is hope. You are brilliant, John, amongst other positive adjectives, and I thank you for it.
I haven't watched you guys in over a year because I've been trying to stay off the internet more and also finishing college, moving, and moving again. I love this!
I can't see John Green as an old man, I see him like a young, handsome and someone who inspires me every day to become a better person. "Don't forget to be awesome!"
I have a lot of tiny baby chickens in my head today and this has vastly improved my day. thank you for consistently being my entertainment and hope when i am ill, hank n john (or as john prefers to think of it, john and hank)
Happy Birthday Mr. John Green who writes books (Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns, The Fault in Our Stars, Turtles All the Way Down, etc), works with brother Hank Green for various projects and RUclips channels (CrashCourse, vlogbrothers, etc) and a person who DOES NOT cast movies.
I got so confused when I saw this video in my notifications because John was the thumbnail image, and since I'm in the school holidays I have a hard time keeping track of the days of the week, but I got so upset for a second because I thought I might have gotten so far out of whack that it was Tuesday and I thought it was Friday. Happy Birthday John!
crystalclare1000 I don't think I've ever read a cold book lol It depends how old the book is though because if it's really old and musty then...yuck. But yes all books smell good. Although new books smell especially good 📚 😊
This is one of my most favorite Vlogbrothers videos, & I've been actively watching for half a decade or more. Also? I see you Hank with your multi-pronunciations of "gif"
What a nice way to recognize a birthday! I personally like the one Hank shared on his twitter the other day, where John sort of does one of those "doodily doo doo doo" walks onto the Crash Course set.
Giant Squid of Anger, Super Model John, Happy Dance at Crash Course are my favourites by far. I absolutely love the Crash Course ones because CC brought me to Vlogbrothers.
I love the bit about the squirrel. I occasionally go back to that video just to watch him be afraid and hear him say “This squirrel is inadequately afraid of humans.”
I love this video and thank you guys for sharing your relationship online. It really warms my heart (in the good way). PS.:all gif pronunciations are valid and should be accepted
The top GIF being some visibly loving the smell of a real book on the internet is super ironic and awesome. It dramatically improvea my faith in the internet.
Jerf is my new fav GIF pronunciation.
M' name i' Jerf!
o mer gurd, yer right
I liked Hrif/Xif
I think Mike Rugnetta had ZhIFE
+
This entire video is basically Hank telling John he's old. 😂
Roasting your elder bro with style.
What else are brothers for?
(goes to tell his brother how old he is)
that's what happens every birthday after you're 40. go look at birthday cards, half of them are "haha, you're old"
This is the best watchmojo video of all time.

Hahah!
I loved this. I hope John does this for Hank.

Me too, super cool to see the top 10 !
I hope it becomes tradition and there's an increasing number of goifs of them sniffing books
Thank you for being inclusive in your pronunciation of "gif," Hank! XD

I'm just glad you pronounced fig right several times.
FIG /wheezes
deeply appreciate the widely varying pronunciations of GIF. Excellent work.
Favorite John Green quote thread!
"The world may be broken, but hope is not crazy."
"Luxury pea experience"
"Truth resists simplicity."
"Dodge and deflect!" (wimpy swatting motions included)
We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken.
"And if after all that you still weep, Daddy's going to have to grapple-with-the-fact-that-while-buying-goods-and-services-may-benefit-the-economy,-it's-not-necessarily-the-best-way-to get babies to sleep!"
Kind of surprised that the gif of him throwing himself at a wall to see if he'd stick didn't make the top 10.
+ thats definitely one of my favorite john green gifs
I thought I loved sarcastic party popper until I saw congress.

Is it really Top 10 John Green Gifs, or is it actually Top Ways to say GIF?
How many different pronunciations of gif did Hank use in this one video?
I counted 8 (if you don't include his second use of "jif").
I counted 10 total uses of the word (hope I didn’t miss any), but I don’t know how many would technically be repeat pronunciations
All of them...
The fact that the "let's be mermaids" episode of Dear Hank & John became a real shirt that John wore makes me so happy. The world is a wonderful and weird place.
Hold on, I can't be the only person who noticed that Hank skipped number 3. Or is this a joke I don't understand? I FEEL SO EXCLUDED

Welcome to nerdfighteria!! Tuataria.com where lots of cool nerdfighteria stuff happens (sorry I edited it so many times, I couldn't get the link right)
Welcome to nerdfighteria! Binging Vlogbrothers was so awesome especially when I first found it.
dragons and waffles Truly!!!
Well Hello there.
Welcome!
This video deserves a sequel/update
I absolutely love Hank continuing to pronounce gif differently every time he says it!! Very diplomatic!
Head desk is my favorite. But also the squirrel video is one of my favorites vlogbrothers videos of all time.

Happy birthday Johnny Green! Also your birthday gift shirt is awesome!
Google is such a badass.
This needs to be put in the legendary vlogbrothers videos playlist
Thank you for reminding us of these, Hank. I've forgotten how gifable y'all are. PS. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOHN!!! !! ! !!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOHN!
You have had a great effect on me and on a lot of other people with things you've said, GIRFable moments, what you've done and how you've done them. In you I can find inspiration, enlightenment, and at times motivation. Turtles All The Way Down is my favourite book and possibly the first time I've easily decided on a favourite. I have something you said about mental illness on my wall because it gives hope, reminding that there is hope. You are brilliant, John, amongst other positive adjectives, and I thank you for it.
Of all the years of vlogbrothers I have seen, this is one of my favorite videos. A man showing his love for his brother. Happy birthday, John!
I love the fact that you two are brothers so we get to see you make fun of each other in the most amusing way.
Happy birthday John!! Old is gold!!!
I haven't watched you guys in over a year because I've been trying to stay off the internet more and also finishing college, moving, and moving again. I love this!
I love all of your more serious, didactic content, but I LIVE for the goofy ones. Thank you both for these little bits of joy.
I love the way Hank pronounces geese in this video
That sarcastic party popper gif is definitely entering my rotation, I can already think of missed opportunities for it.
I can't see John Green as an old man, I see him like a young, handsome and someone who inspires me every day to become a better person. "Don't forget to be awesome!"
Ah! So THAT'S what DFTBA means! I've been here for years and never actually seen it written out before!
Whenever I’m sad, I look up John Green gifs and memes and it instantly makes me feel better. Hope you had an amazing birthday, John.
I have a lot of tiny baby chickens in my head today and this has vastly improved my day. thank you for consistently being my entertainment and hope when i am ill, hank n john (or as john prefers to think of it, john and hank)
This is my favorite kind of vlogbrothers content and I cherish its rare and wonderful appearances
Happy birthday John! I kinda miss the days when y’all weren’t so busy and did the super secret projects for each other that included the nerdfighters
Waaahh!!Putin!!🤣

Happy Birthday Mr. John Green who writes books (Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns, The Fault in Our Stars, Turtles All the Way Down, etc), works with brother Hank Green for various projects and RUclips channels (CrashCourse, vlogbrothers, etc) and a person who DOES NOT cast movies.
0:52 The most used gif on my phone.
Btw Happy Birthday John! Wish you loads of happiness..... and pizzas (without any sort of health issues ofcourse)
It's on my phone too!
SHIVANI SINGH cause i sent you one 🙃

What a great way to remember why we all love John and this community. Happy birthday John!! ❤️
So many great moments in this video ALMOST overshadowed by Hank pronouncing GIF as many ways as possible. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN!!!!
I got so confused when I saw this video in my notifications because John was the thumbnail image, and since I'm in the school holidays I have a hard time keeping track of the days of the week, but I got so upset for a second because I thought I might have gotten so far out of whack that it was Tuesday and I thought it was Friday. Happy Birthday John!
This genuinely alleviated my current dreadful mental state. Thank you, Hank. Happy Birthday, John!
Loved this, and i can't wait to see you at VidCon in February
Both these gifs and Hank's pronunciation of gif make me very happy
Happy Birthday. Stay Awesome.
DFTBA everyone! Have a good day
What? Doesn't everyone sniff books? I love the smell of new books 📚 📚 📚
Who's with me on this?
Happy Birthday John Green.
New books, old books,
Hot books, cold books
crystalclare1000 I don't think I've ever read a cold book lol
It depends how old the book is though because if it's really old and musty then...yuck.
But yes all books smell good. Although new books smell especially good 📚 😊
Hank saying "Is this what you people want?" and then sniffing his book and saying "That's actually pretty good." should be a gif.
+Christian Sawyer media.giphy.com/media/4W1DhBaxNQEyxKjkVu/giphy.gif
Me 👋 i sniff books. I aint ashamed of it!
Happy birthday, John!
I was ready to riot if the blue steel gif wasn't in there. I'm pleased that I can now save that energy for something potentially more useful
Happy birthday John. I also really appreciate all the pronunciations of GIF
Happy Birthday, John! And really great Vlogbrother vid, Hank. One of my favorite for sure.
Happy Birthday John
Happy birthday, John! I've definitely found a use for some of these, and other, jeffs of you.
I have used all those John GIFs except the book sniffing and the Putin one. I am now in search of the Putin one.
Happy birthday,John!!! 🎂🎉🍕
Happy Birthday!!!! Congratulations on 41 years of awesome!!!!
Well happy birthday John! You’re not old.
Truth. He's only another 6 months older than me.
I love the slow descent into more and more incomprehensible pronunciations of gif
This was such a lovely video. Happy birthday, John! Thank you for this video, Hank! ❤️
This is one of my most favorite Vlogbrothers videos, & I've been actively watching for half a decade or more. Also? I see you Hank with your multi-pronunciations of "gif"
This was beautiful. Thank you for bringing these into my life.
Happy Birthday John! You’re not getting older, you’re leveling up
I love the nuance this has brought to the debate of “gif” pronunciation.
Happy birthday, John "Jonald" Green! Thank you for having such a positive impact on my life over the years. DFTBA!
Happy Birthday John!
I actually have some of those just saved on my computer. You never know when you might need a gif of John reacting!
All the mispronunciations of gif tho
We should all just adopt all of these
Raina Ramsay agreed
+
correct pronunciations
Yeah, everyone knows it’s pronounced gif
Wait
Oh Hank, hope John does something like that with you too...you guys are amazing! I always laugh watching your videos but this one was special in it.
Saying gif in every way possible to avoid people telling you your wrong. Fabulous
Thank you Hank (and indirectly, John) for making my day with this video. Just good vibes all around~
happy birthday john! you inspire me every day
Easily my favorite thing posted on the internet today
Happy birthday John! Thanks for being awesome
What a nice way to recognize a birthday! I personally like the one Hank shared on his twitter the other day, where John sort of does one of those "doodily doo doo doo" walks onto the Crash Course set.
So beautiful, happy birthday John!
The different ways Hank pronounces "gif" make me so happy. Happy Birthday, John!
I GOT A 4 ON AP BIO AND IT WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED WITHOUT YOUR CRASH COURSE VIDEOS. THANK YOU HANK, THANK YOU.
This was the absolute best! Awesome idea Hank! Phenomenal execution! This was a joy ^_^
oh and also all the different ways you pronounced GIF warmed the cockles of my heart. You're a good man, Hank Green
I appreciate the various ways you said gif in this lol. Happy belated, John!
I cannot tell you how excited I am that your book has been chosen for the Barnes & Noble book club. Congratulations Hank.
Hank's various pronounciations of GIFs is hilarious!
P.S. I do too miss the happy dance
Happy Birthday John!! These gifs are awesome!!
Happy Birthday John!!
Also, Hank I think the book smelling gif is everyone enjoying that new book smell
Giant Squid of Anger, Super Model John, Happy Dance at Crash Course are my favourites by far. I absolutely love the Crash Course ones because CC brought me to Vlogbrothers.
Let’s be mermaids
Happy birthday!
I love the way Hank pronounces gif. Also John should do this for Hank gifs
Talk more about PodCon! I totally would have bought my tickets earlier... going to buy them now!
This is so amazing! Happy bday John!
10 reasons i love this community
My second favourite Hank video of the year, right after the one about the wolf-dog.
I love the bit about the squirrel. I occasionally go back to that video just to watch him be afraid and hear him say “This squirrel is inadequately afraid of humans.”
I love how he pronounced GIF differently each time
Happy Birthday, John!!
Happy birthday jonh!!!🎂🎉
I love how this presents his personality!
The squirrel one is my favorite! Happy Birthday, John!!
I love this video and thank you guys for sharing your relationship online. It really warms my heart (in the good way).
PS.:all gif pronunciations are valid and should be accepted
The top GIF being some visibly loving the smell of a real book on the internet is super ironic and awesome. It dramatically improvea my faith in the internet.
Happy birthday to John! That shirt looks great!
