The comment below yours (by @danakchampion) is comparing Josh Johnson to a preacher (every week, commenting on some sociocultural thing), and I have to say..... Yeeeeah. I'm pretty impressed by what Josh is doing. Dharma talk, and some people wouldn't even realise it 😅
For the guys the don’t understand why we ate the demure video up so fast is because she was comically mocking the “clean girls” on tik tok that speak like that and act like they’re doing something so elegant and ✨demure✨ when they’re just condescending and stuck up.
Ty!! I could feel the sarcasm but I wasn't quite sure where it was coming from since it has sarcasm in and of itself (why would demure be preferred? etc) but it def felt like she was referencing something else.
I hadn't seen it until now. It certainly seemed to me a parody of the inaccurate use of the word and presumably women on the internet being polite and thankful and essentially conservative in dress and makeup, etc.
I love how Josh feels like a cross between a Comedian and a philosopher while bullcrapping with nostalgia. Awesome talent, love seeing him on the Daily Show too.
I've been hearing people say this goddamn "demure" and "mindful" all week long and was wondering wtf this was!!! Thank you Josh, you always be delivering on multiple fronts lol

He didn't get it because the western weird ass view of Buddhism is not the same as the actual Asian religion. Americans are extremely offensive about Buddhism most of the time, and seem to think that it is ok to mock it in a way they would never treat another religion. And yes, it has rules & prohibitions & you do not get to decide your own path, there is the same set of proscriptive rules that every major religion has. Also the one-ness is part of their world view, he cannot comprehend the idea of not being in oneness with the universe so it would be like making a joke about duality to us. We only know duality so there isn't much to discuss. Buddhists raised in that culture only know oneness, so it's hard for them to see a joke about it.

The boys blowing up urinals and messing up bathrooms was very likely a trend called “devious licks.” The idea is that a student steals or vandalizes something from/at school. I teach middle school, and we had a terrible problem with that one. The wild thing is these kids videoed it and shared it on social media, often with the public. We caught so many of them because they shared it on social media, and admin somehow eventually got the video! People talk about being worried about this generation for various stupid reasons, but I’m worried that so many were dumb enough to do that.
It's almost like they don't make the connection because they are so comfortable being filmed. I was born in the 80's... being on ANY camera is STILL a big deal to me. I DO enjoy taking pictures of my cooking, though. THAT is something I DO want evidence of.😃 Also...what is the punishment in school for blowing up a whole toilet?! Like, damn!
Nah, if you think about it for a couple minutes, you'll remember we knew plenty of kids just as dumb. The difference is we didn't have a high res camera in our pocket 24/7 and high speed internet everywhere we went. The smart kids are still either staying out of trouble or at least not leaving a clear trail of documentation to themselves. If anything, it's probably easier to avoid getting caught now, because it's easier to be invisible when everyone else is so visible and busy looking at each other.
It was such a problem we ended up putting cages over our soap and paper towel dispensers. When that didn't work, we ended up keeping all but a couple bathrooms locked for most of the day. It sucked. For the kids, I mean. I work there and have a key to the staff bathrooms so... get wrecked, you little shits.
. But not The Onion of 1988, it was mostly a coupon rag that insulted potential advertisers that had backed out, by filling the space they held for the ad with the now infamous "You are dumb"
I sure enjoy watching as Josh’s comedy gets better and better. I sincerely believe he’s the best up-and-coming comic of his generation. He has the wisdom of an old soul.
@@AConquerorsVendetta Agree with the OP on this one. Josh Johnson is the best up and coming comedian of his and Taylor Tomlinson’s generation. They’re only a few yrs apart in age -Josh is 34 and Taylor Tomlinson’s 31. +Taylor’s already famous. She’s no longer up and coming, not with 3 Netflix specials and having done the late night rounds. Now Netflix needs to wake up and give Josh Johnson a special. Glad he has his RUclips channel, and he’s not behind any paywalls this way.🙂
I haven't been to church in a long while, by intent. But I realize my religious conditioning may be why I enjoy tuning in to JJ. Folks have wondered how he's able to come up with new material weekly, commenting in a timely manner on all matter of social trends, as a comic. But there is a profession that's expected to provide sociohistorical background to contemporary events as a service their community on a weekly basis. And turn out bangers that are as entertaining as they are informative. Thank you brother Johnson for the word you brought to us today on suffering and mindfulness. Amen!
I've honestly never attended a church where your description would be apt. I've tried quite a few over my many years, but gave up 10-12 years ago... I honestly think if I'd found a church that was socially aware and obviously gave a frick (beyond occasional food pantries) I may have stuck around. One place I left specifically BECAUSE they were so insulated from social reality. They had plans to expand, not an immediate need by their own statements but a "growth mentality". That was 15ish years ago, and there was the economic recession hitting HARD. Their ONLY response was to increase the pressure to donate and commit to the specific building project! I brought up what was going on, and all the GOOD that could be done with that money. The pastor's response was incredibly disappointing... still feel my skin crawl remembering it. Talk about ENTITLED... Soooo... yeah. I tried a couple other places after that, but... Oh well. Sorry for the ramble 😂 Ya got me thinking though - I wonder if there's a GOOD one around, that would accept ME.... 🤔 (there's a lot of self-segregation here, and the churches that are NOT out of touch and privileged af are, I think, kinda... a "photo negative" of me, to quote Christopher Titus😅)
You tried friend. The fact that youre so pressed about human suffering and church apathy makes you a better Christian than many Christians. ❤praying with you and for churches to do so much better@KOKO-uu7yd
Try a lutheran church. Mine wasnt too bad, but seeing all the other churches around sure turned me against religion early 😅 Their whole thing was they split off because of corruption and bribing your sins away, among other things, Martin luther was branded a heretic and an outlaw. The tithe is optional.@@KOKO-uu7yd
Did we just see a set on the four noble truths?? 😂😂 Honestly it’s great watching someone so good at what they do, so great at what they do, pump out such quality material so frequently. It’s inspiring. We’re watching a genius in the making, love it.
Josh is the epitome or DEMURE & MINDFUL! 😅 I got to see him in person in ATL & it was an amazing experience. Josh was incredibly humble & thankful taking the time to take pictures with everyone. ❤ Can’t wait for him to come back!
He did the same for his Detroit show, took the time to meet and greet everyone. I'm just so impressed that he comes out with fresh content constantly while doing so many shows and also the meet and greets.
The craziest thing to me is that they are still breaking the bathrooms?! Like why??? They then complain about only have one bathroom still availble because the vandalism and destruction that needs to get fixed @MewKage13
@@kittyspodos unfortunately the majority of students aren't licking anything, most of the students complaining about not having access to bathrooms are not the five or ten kids who think devious licks are the coolest thing.

In Thailand it's common for young men to be monks for a year or two. This brings honor to their family. They don't necessarily want to be monks and most aren't planning to be a monk for life. The meth monks were a small group of young men.
@@apcolleenno… it’s not. For foreigners, maybe more a lesson to not generalize large groups of people (even if they are self-selecting) & remember monks are human!
Yeah, Thailand is fairly unique in that young men are often forced to do it, for better and for worse. In other countries where it's 100% voluntary and a lifelong commitment rather than a summer camp, there is obviously *much* less "popping off" :)

I gave myself a black eye on a bedframe once and my friends basically threw an intervention because they thought my boyfriend did it. And I can understand their concern because "I slammed my face into a bedframe" sounds like a horrible excuse. (I was at a hotel and it was one of those really tall, fancy bedframes.) But I remember the whole thing so clearly because I was pleading with them, "No, I swear, I'm not making excuses for him. I'm just a dumbass." That joke made me realize that I am not alone. Thank you. 🤣 (It was technically the footboard but it was for exactly the reason that you said. I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and didn't turn any lights on. I tried crawling back into bed and...SMASH. Although, my boyfriend did laugh hysterically, so maybe I don't feel so bad that my friends didn't trust him after that.)
I was on the other side of that relationship once. My GF at the time managed to trip over nothing and while flailing hit herself in the eye. Whenever we went out, people gave me dirty looks. We would laugh about it, but I thought I was going to get beaten by dudes a couple times.
Happened to my mom after she had surgery under her eye. After, it looked like a black eye. WHAT DID DAD DO???? I shrieked when I saw her. Was about to fight my old man! 😂
Try taking your 2 year old daughter out in public, including a trip to the Drs... Who you told to sit down in the bath because standing up is dangerous... She slips, hits the area above her eye on the spout, wakes up the next day with an absolute shiner. Yes, that was fun!
Ohmygooooosh!!! I’m the same way 😂 my brother was ready for battle in elementary school because I had a black eye and I slipped in and hit the corner of my eye on the sink 😂 but when I explained he said “ that sounds about right “ and to this day I still keep finding myself in situations where I kick my own ass.
im still in highschool and memes are starting to speed up around me so fast I'm already falling behind I can feel my cells dying is this what millennials felt in 2011
Memes almost got us the end of all Republican/Democrat political corruption in 2015. But then news pages and Facebook and comment sections from everywhere started taking off the meme-posting ability. Memes have been a part of politics for centuries. It’s not a new thing from the internet. Save the memes. ❤ And Facebook started deleted entire anti-corruption Facebook pages and they started deleting all recorded evidences of Republicans and Democrats being corrupted. (I screen-recorded some evidence). The day they take away screenshot and screen-recording capabilities, is the day we all need to blow the peaceful whistle on corruption and demand thousands of investigations.

This is the first time I'm listening to Josh's improv shows, and I just love his style of storytelling. Treating it like a conversation, building up his stories in such a compelling (and demure and mindful) way. He truly has taken the art of comedy to another level, I know you won't see this but keep it up man.
I found out about Jools from RuPaul guest-hosting Kimmel last night. I knew I could count on getting the full picture from Josh Johnson, the hardest working comedian and newsperson out here killing it these days.
I needed your humorous wisdom tonight for courage. I had to cancel a singing gig because I have covid, and I geared myself up to quarantine more by watching a bunch of scary movies. Then at 4 AM, I realized I needed to walk outside to the mailbox and was like I need Josh to help me open the door in the dark. So thanks for that.
I’m just picturing a temple of Buddhist monks sitting there with little notebooks taking notes while somebody shows them demure TikTok’s and gotta say that’s the funniest visual I’ve had in a while
@@KaydeeRager Oh he’s funny for sure, but he’s got that soothing voice & his stories are interesting enough to give our ADHD brains something to pay attention to, but they also put you at ease & that makes it easier to slip away to sleep (& then finish the video first thing when u wake up). Thank you @s.dunne.3833 for linking my liking of him to my ADHD! :)
I appreciate you for being my trusted news source I love me some JoshNN! I dont use tiktok and my internet use is reserved for anime, standup comedy, podcasts, and Kendrick Lamar reaction videos so its nice to know that I can always drop in on JoshNN to stay connected to the rest of the world
This was one of my favorites. I love the bit about Buddhist monks. I spent time in Thailand and even went to a retreat at one of the temples. I did see how things could go wrong there. I love how you merged it with the demure and mindful story. Fantastic as usual.
Haven't gotten to that part of the video yet but many everyday people go to those monasteries for 2 reasons: 1. Kind of a national service with a spiritual base for young people post school. They tell me its not required but you won't really be seen as marriage material/responsible adult if you don't do it. 2. Many people go and stay for awhile for things like after a divorce or addiction rehab. Those times you need to regroup, uplift, and heal... It seems nice because people don't need to hit bottom or have insurance if they feel their lives are going down these paths. But my point is they wear robes and are called "monks" but are not the more enlightened ordained leadership. Just based on this I'd assume people from other cultures would lump them into one, not many everyday people attempting to navigate their life transitions in a solid way. But I think there are posers in every religion that need to heal from being posers.
I’m a psychiatric nurse. Often times I feel like I’m literally drowning from all the bullshit life throws at us, while trying to keep my head on straight at work. “YO STAND UP” will always be a funny story/saying to help me out going forward. Actually brought me to tears after cackling. Thaaaanks!!
As a Thai person, the turn of topic to those buddhist monks definitely got me on the ground laughing. Oh, they have been really baaaaad. 🤣🤣🤣 Not demure or mindful at all. Wonderful set as always, Josh.
I donate in thanks for hilariously explaining the noble truth of stress, the noble truth of the origination of stress, the noble truth of the cessation of stress, and the noble truth of the path of practice leading to the cessation of stress
I didn’t really care about the "demure trend", so I didn't rush to watch this one. What a mistake. I thought I was here for the comedy, but his comments about ending our suffering was so needed as I try to move forward after my husband's death.
Historically there have been a lot of militant buddhist sects in Asia. During the feudal-era civil wars of Japan they'd often pick a side suddenly and show up to battles and start wrecking factions they didn't like.
I have been in 1 knockdown thrown down brawl and it was an unprovoked fight with a couple monks, I won’t say what region. I am talking full on brawl and any items such as a sewer lid or otherwise heavy objects came into play. It was a pretty surreal and crazy escalation on an afternoon meeting coworkers, out of the blue. Anyway afterwards we drank some beers together and they invited us to visit the monastery, region and families to show the hospitality and good nature.
I'm one of the people who haven't been alive for the last couple weeks. I honestly had no idea why ive been seeing the word demure being used way more often than usual.
One time I was at a friend's house and someone came to pick us up. I walk up to the passenger door and open it, asking the passenger to get out so I can get in. I bent down and pulled the seat forward and hit the recline lever to lean the seatback over the dashboard. The driver got out and yelled at my friend "WTF?!" and as I stood up and put one leg into the car, I realized everyone was looking at me like there was a payness growing out of my forehead. I ducked and got into the car and slid over behind the driver. My friend opened the back door of the car and sat down next to me. He slid over to me, squishing me and tickling me whilst cackling with the other guys about how high I was. It wasn't until we pulled off and turned around in the cul de sac that I squealed WAIT THIS CAR IS A FOUR DOOR?! 🤦🏼♀️ Ahhh, to be 16...
That pool thing was so funny. I was actually drowning in a lake at summer camp and my friends had a similar reaction. Like, is she drowning? I think she’s drowning.😂
Josh is making a good point about how most humans are drawn to practical jokes that hurt and cause shame. The Old Candid Camera was great, no one got hurt and even the jokee was laughing.
@@linmonash1244 lol no! Jackass was a series of movies that came out in the 2000s where a group of men would do absolutely stupid stunts. Like. Shoot one of them out of a canon or, as Josh said, one of the guys would go up behind their friend and kick him in the balls. None of these men were professionals or stunt men or anything like that. They were just every day dudes. (They got featured on Shark Week for the last couple of years, and one of their people actually got bit by a shark, if that tells you anything about their antics). Before TikTok, InstaGram, Vine and when RUclips was a different website (used to be a place where people would share these more “home video” styled videos than the type of content it hosts today) Gen X and Millennials would use video cameras/camcorders to record ourselves doing whatever stupid shit we were getting into as preteens/teens lol. Because this took place in the days pre-internet/before the internet became an invasion of personal privacy (ie people treating social media like it’s their own personal diary, and the internet was seen as this weird, niche thing to chronically use) a lot of the stuff us Gen X & Millennials recorded is still on some physical VHS/DVD/chip somewhere lmao! Basically the Jackass franchise represented the interests of a generation of young boys lmao! I guess they could be like “Influencers” before that was a thing- if “Influencers” filmed themselves head butting a beehive to get some laughs from their friends and had 0 interest in actually selling you anything 😂🤣
@@linmonash1244 "Jackass" was an American television show in which white male teenagers (or young adults who would subsequently never grow past teen mentality) hurt themselves and each other in increasingly imaginative, usually crude ways. It seems to me like a precursor to alpha-male internet culture, and something a lot of American kids injured themselves copying at home in the 90's and early 2000's
They don't know what demure means if bringing pastries to work is their definition! I can see this going wrong so fast - demure is one step away from tradwife. I was told my entire childhood and adolescence (in an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community) that a good Jewish girl is demure, meaning stays hidden and silent.
Agree completely @dainybernstein4751 Demure also meant submitting to male authority. Putting their needs above your own. It also could mean dressing "modestly" which controls our bodies and puts the responsibility of other men's thoughts and actions onto the woman. No tradwife! We're not going back! Vote Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in November for freedom!
the creator jools has made videos about how the “very demure, very mindful” is 100% her dunking on herself and most (if not all) the things she says are not demure are things she has done irl (like wearing lime green eye shadow on her first day of work)
Demure most definitely dinnae mean 'hidden' and 'silent'. Demure represents reserved, modest, shy, mature. Or basically, demure. If you grew up with it, no one needs to explain the definition. Proper etiquette would dictate all people behave demurely.
Jamaican girl, here. Same here. Demure is the law for us...lol. In traditional Rastafarian culture, the women STILL do not wear pants in public. But it is more of an expression of "feminine divinity" ...a little less "be a lady". I even took etiquette classes in school😁 (yes...they have that in America!lol) ....I say, you gotta learn the rules if you wanna break them! 💅🏾
Josh, you're my favourite new comedian I've found. First saw you on The Daily Show and laughed my ass off, now the RUclips algo threw up your channel and I'm laughing my ass off again. I love your style, and you timing, and the substance of your content - all on point. If you ever do a show in New Zealand I'll be there. Much love.
Omg Josh, my favorite daily show correspondent talking about Buddha‘s 4 Noble Truths- I can’t even 😂 sometimes life is just so beautiful, love love love ❤️💜💚💙
Josh is the only one I can listen to anymore that connects to familiar situations that make us aware or think. Our whole house loves listening on speaker end of day & catching up on missed shows! 💝
Idk what that is either. My buddy posted on FB saying say demure one more time lol. I didnt ask or cared. Now i have to hear it cause our boy is gonna make us laugh, so its worth it hearing!
Thank you, Josh. Every Tuesday evening, I learn something new. I had no idea demur was the new hot thing. So tomorrow I'll go out and be hip and demur😂
I’m just want to thank you for making so much of your content just out here and available. I don’t know how I missed your comedy until recently but you're very talented and your ability to articulate your observations is so impressive and poignant.
Some-people become a monk only for the benefit, living of donations, some act like a mega church pastor, preaching the wrong message to trick people in to giving them money, Some even create a spin-off cult and do all sort of evil stuff. It's quite a big on-going problem in Thailand.
My sister 'became' a Buddhist, changed her name and decided she was far more spiritually 'superior' to everyone else in the family, and most everyone else as well. { She was - and still is- all about 'being superior'} After quite a while, of putting up with her and her shenanigans, and her chronic freeloading ( they must have been VERY patient ) they actually threw her out! The final straw, allegedly, was something to do with setting herself up as some kind of 'wise expert' and selling 'teachings'. It was explained to her that these were free teachings to the public and not for profiteering... Which she was quite outraged about. "What! We can beg - but not make a business?!? How DARE they tell me what NOT to do!" Years of Spiritual teachings and none of it sunk in.

So much movement it helps honestly
The boys blowing up urinals and messing up bathrooms was very likely a trend called “devious licks.” The idea is that a student steals or vandalizes something from/at school. I teach middle school, and we had a terrible problem with that one.
The wild thing is these kids videoed it and shared it on social media, often with the public. We caught so many of them because they shared it on social media, and admin somehow eventually got the video!
People talk about being worried about this generation for various stupid reasons, but I’m worried that so many were dumb enough to do that.
Im so glad I was the last generation to grow up without social media, these kids don't understand of not self incriminating themselves😅.
It's almost like they don't make the connection because they are so comfortable being filmed. I was born in the 80's... being on ANY camera is STILL a big deal to me. I DO enjoy taking pictures of my cooking, though. THAT is something I DO want evidence of.😃
Also...what is the punishment in school for blowing up a whole toilet?! Like, damn!
Nah, if you think about it for a couple minutes, you'll remember we knew plenty of kids just as dumb. The difference is we didn't have a high res camera in our pocket 24/7 and high speed internet everywhere we went. The smart kids are still either staying out of trouble or at least not leaving a clear trail of documentation to themselves.
If anything, it's probably easier to avoid getting caught now, because it's easier to be invisible when everyone else is so visible and busy looking at each other.
It was such a problem we ended up putting cages over our soap and paper towel dispensers. When that didn't work, we ended up keeping all but a couple bathrooms locked for most of the day.
It sucked. For the kids, I mean. I work there and have a key to the staff bathrooms so... get wrecked, you little shits.
Seems like Gen Z and Alpha are even more neglected than we were
"DEMUURRRRRE!" gosh, i love Josh.
I suddenly want Mark Ruffalo to do the demure grandma thing 😂
@@mavicityrelayson2924 🤣🤣🤣😂
Over an hour from drop and nearly a hundred people waiting. We all live for Josh's take on the hot gossip and he knows it
He's probably the best source of news that this nation has ever produced.
The only one that might be able to top him probably The Onion
@@RaznorthecompletelyrealhumanThe Onion 2003, sure

. But not The Onion of 1988, it was mostly a coupon rag that insulted potential advertisers that had backed out, by filling the space they held for the ad with the now infamous "You are dumb"
The consistency on these topics is insane
Did not expect to see JD Witherspoon in the wild 👀
You are funny too sir
I sure enjoy watching as Josh’s comedy gets better and better.
I sincerely believe he’s the best up-and-coming comic of his generation.
He has the wisdom of an old soul.
He's the best guy for sure, check out Taylor Tomlinson if you want the best in the current generation 😁
@@AConquerorsVendetta Agree with the OP on this one. Josh Johnson is the best up and coming comedian of his and Taylor Tomlinson’s generation. They’re only a few yrs apart in age -Josh is 34 and Taylor Tomlinson’s 31. +Taylor’s already famous. She’s no longer up and coming, not with 3 Netflix specials and having done the late night rounds. Now Netflix needs to wake up and give Josh Johnson a special. Glad he has his RUclips channel, and he’s not behind any paywalls this way.🙂
He’s not in the Joe Rogan friend group of comedians which puts him head, shoulders, knees and toes above that group.
concur
He does doesn't he,‽
Came for the demure explanation, stayed to learn about Buddhism. Absolutely incredible set as always Josh
I haven't been to church in a long while, by intent. But I realize my religious conditioning may be why I enjoy tuning in to JJ. Folks have wondered how he's able to come up with new material weekly, commenting in a timely manner on all matter of social trends, as a comic. But there is a profession that's expected to provide sociohistorical background to contemporary events as a service their community on a weekly basis. And turn out bangers that are as entertaining as they are informative. Thank you brother Johnson for the word you brought to us today on suffering and mindfulness. Amen!
beautiful comparison 👏🏽
Amen
I've honestly never attended a church where your description would be apt. I've tried quite a few over my many years, but gave up 10-12 years ago...
I honestly think if I'd found a church that was socially aware and obviously gave a frick (beyond occasional food pantries) I may have stuck around. One place I left specifically BECAUSE they were so insulated from social reality. They had plans to expand, not an immediate need by their own statements but a "growth mentality". That was 15ish years ago, and there was the economic recession hitting HARD. Their ONLY response was to increase the pressure to donate and commit to the specific building project! I brought up what was going on, and all the GOOD that could be done with that money. The pastor's response was incredibly disappointing... still feel my skin crawl remembering it. Talk about ENTITLED...
Soooo... yeah. I tried a couple other places after that, but...
Oh well.
Sorry for the ramble 😂 Ya got me thinking though - I wonder if there's a GOOD one around, that would accept ME.... 🤔 (there's a lot of self-segregation here, and the churches that are NOT out of touch and privileged af are, I think, kinda... a "photo negative" of me, to quote Christopher Titus😅)
You tried friend. The fact that youre so pressed about human suffering and church apathy makes you a better Christian than many Christians. ❤praying with you and for churches to do so much better@KOKO-uu7yd
Try a lutheran church. Mine wasnt too bad, but seeing all the other churches around sure turned me against religion early 😅 Their whole thing was they split off because of corruption and bribing your sins away, among other things, Martin luther was branded a heretic and an outlaw. The tithe is optional.@@KOKO-uu7yd
Did we just see a set on the four noble truths?? 😂😂 Honestly it’s great watching someone so good at what they do, so great at what they do, pump out such quality material so frequently. It’s inspiring. We’re watching a genius in the making, love it.
Josh is the epitome or DEMURE & MINDFUL! 😅 I got to see him in person in ATL & it was an amazing experience. Josh was incredibly humble & thankful taking the time to take pictures with everyone. ❤ Can’t wait for him to come back!
He did the same for his Detroit show, took the time to meet and greet everyone. I'm just so impressed that he comes out with fresh content constantly while doing so many shows and also the meet and greets.
As a teacher, I can certify devious licks were so real two years ago. Some kid stole the whole sink
I have...so many questions???😅😅
The craziest thing to me is that they are still breaking the bathrooms?! Like why??? They then complain about only have one bathroom still availble because the vandalism and destruction that needs to get fixed @MewKage13
@@kittyspodos unfortunately the majority of students aren't licking anything, most of the students complaining about not having access to bathrooms are not the five or ten kids who think devious licks are the coolest thing. Those are the kids who don't need a bathroom to use the bathroom.

In Thailand it's common for young men to be monks for a year or two. This brings honor to their family. They don't necessarily want to be monks and most aren't planning to be a monk for life. The meth monks were a small group of young men.
It's like enshitification of religion.
@@apcolleenno… it’s not. For foreigners, maybe more a lesson to not generalize large groups of people (even if they are self-selecting) & remember monks are human!
Yeah, Thailand is fairly unique in that young men are often forced to do it, for better and for worse. In other countries where it's 100% voluntary and a lifelong commitment rather than a summer camp, there is obviously *much* less "popping off" :)
There are weekly scandals about monks. Either stealing money, meth or pdf file behaviour and physical abuse. Sadly it's not a one off.
@@sophief1996 Though I definitely agree, it’s not just a foreigner thing to make/ believe big generalizations and stereotypes about a sad number of certain groups of people.
I love how we are coming to demure after hawk tuah.
Rubber banding
Hawk tuah is demure, compared to the arguement you get from someone who frowns on the practice. "i'd never do that" which is the damn problem lolz
She really sucked that off in a demure and mindful way.
Ooooooo someone was paying attention 😂😂😂😂
@@cocoadragon8554 Hawk tuah is if nothing else, very mindful.
I gave myself a black eye on a bedframe once and my friends basically threw an intervention because they thought my boyfriend did it. And I can understand their concern because "I slammed my face into a bedframe" sounds like a horrible excuse. (I was at a hotel and it was one of those really tall, fancy bedframes.) But I remember the whole thing so clearly because I was pleading with them, "No, I swear, I'm not making excuses for him. I'm just a dumbass."
That joke made me realize that I am not alone. Thank you. 🤣
(It was technically the footboard but it was for exactly the reason that you said. I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and didn't turn any lights on. I tried crawling back into bed and...SMASH. Although, my boyfriend did laugh hysterically, so maybe I don't feel so bad that my friends didn't trust him after that.)
I was on the other side of that relationship once. My GF at the time managed to trip over nothing and while flailing hit herself in the eye. Whenever we went out, people gave me dirty looks.
We would laugh about it, but I thought I was going to get beaten by dudes a couple times.
Happened to my mom after she had surgery under her eye. After, it looked like a black eye. WHAT DID DAD DO???? I shrieked when I saw her. Was about to fight my old man! 😂
Try taking your 2 year old daughter out in public, including a trip to the Drs... Who you told to sit down in the bath because standing up is dangerous... She slips, hits the area above her eye on the spout, wakes up the next day with an absolute shiner. Yes, that was fun!
Ohmygooooosh!!! I’m the same way 😂 my brother was ready for battle in elementary school because I had a black eye and I slipped in and hit the corner of my eye on the sink 😂 but when I explained he said “ that sounds about right “ and to this day I still keep finding myself in situations where I kick my own ass.
Yooo, the amount of times I busted my eye and upper lip as a child jumping off furniture no wonder they called CPS 😂
Crediting Jools LeBron in your set, very demure, very mindful, very cutesy
very respectable
ugh the 3rd comment like that I've read and im already sick of it
💯🌺🌸💗
@@natoArtBro4318it’s overplayed for real
Also very misogynistic. Nice guys for ya.
Josh Johnson really a walking daily show😂 he's the real daily show
Well, the weekly show technically 😅
He's better. Reminds me of the old daily show with Jon Stuart.
I heard that he was also a writer on the show.
I was thinking the same thing
I nominate Josh to explain EVERYTHING from here on out!!! 😂😂😂😂 He is the most balanced comedian I’ve seen in years ❤
Josh could teach a Masterclass of how to run a comedy set. His craftsmanship is otherworldly!
Josh is on the pulse of pop culture and it’s honestly amazing
The “extra width to the bed frame” is so real
I learned about “demure” today and I can’t stop seeing it everywhere. I want to crawl back under my the rock which I came from.
im still in highschool and memes are starting to speed up around me so fast I'm already falling behind I can feel my cells dying is this what millennials felt in 2011
This is why the KnowYourMeme site was born 🤣
Yes but also, it is okay to fall behind in trends. Adulthood is pretty cool despite the fact that I am not cool 😎
As a millennial, yes.
Memes almost got us the end of all Republican/Democrat political corruption in 2015. But then news pages and Facebook and comment sections from everywhere started taking off the meme-posting ability. Memes have been a part of politics for centuries. It’s not a new thing from the internet. Save the memes. ❤
And Facebook started deleted entire anti-corruption Facebook pages and they started deleting all recorded evidences of Republicans and Democrats being corrupted.
(I screen-recorded some evidence).
The day they take away screenshot and screen-recording capabilities, is the day we all need to blow the peaceful whistle on corruption and demand thousands of investigations.

Thanks for keeping me updated about the demure trend. I didn’t know about it till now.
I just heard it last night. Rue Paul was guest hosting Jimmy Kimmel. It was hilarious.
I heard it yesterday four times for the first time from various unrelated content creators.
Well, now you'll notice everywhere
This is the first time I'm listening to Josh's improv shows, and I just love his style of storytelling. Treating it like a conversation, building up his stories in such a compelling (and demure and mindful) way. He truly has taken the art of comedy to another level, I know you won't see this but keep it up man.
I found out about Jools from RuPaul guest-hosting Kimmel last night. I knew I could count on getting the full picture from Josh Johnson, the hardest working comedian and newsperson out here killing it these days.
I needed your humorous wisdom tonight for courage. I had to cancel a singing gig because I have covid, and I geared myself up to quarantine more by watching a bunch of scary movies. Then at 4 AM, I realized I needed to walk outside to the mailbox and was like I need Josh to help me open the door in the dark. So thanks for that.
I’m just picturing a temple of Buddhist monks sitting there with little notebooks taking notes while somebody shows them demure TikTok’s and gotta say that’s the funniest visual I’ve had in a while
Christ the craftsmanship of this whole standup session should be shown in schools
He's so casual about it that it seems unplanned, but then it all comes together and you realize it's very carefully crafted. He's great 😊
Never heard of this. No better way to learn about it than from Josh!
WOOOOOO thank GOD. I need this man’s content to sleep bc my insomnia is somehow only comforted by Josh’s voice & my ADHD needs fresh material
Lol not his comedy put you to sleep
You too??? He is my relaxation technique!
I am trying this right now, need to sleep so bad!
"Sleep content" is a whole genre 😊 for astronomy look up Jean Michael Godier, he get a person asleep
@@KaydeeRager Oh he’s funny for sure, but he’s got that soothing voice & his stories are interesting enough to give our ADHD brains something to pay attention to, but they also put you at ease & that makes it easier to slip away to sleep (& then finish the video first thing when u wake up).
Thank you @s.dunne.3833 for linking my liking of him to my ADHD! :)
Actually, there's suffering in the bad AND the good, because the bad feels like it's going to last forever and the good is actually temporary
And there's the rub. For Buddhists, EVERYTHING on this plane of existence is transistory and impermanent.
You mentioning the shadow box fighting happened when I was in fact havin one of those moments. Caught me in the act.
17:16 This is a deep concept and it’s really cool that Josh can make it accessible.
That was my favorite part too! It felt very practical, demure and mindful.🙏🏾😌🧘🏾♀️
I appreciate you for being my trusted news source

This, exactly ❤
I love how you start your set and circle your way back to the beginning and being hilarious all the way through!!!
This was one of my favorites. I love the bit about Buddhist monks. I spent time in Thailand and even went to a retreat at one of the temples. I did see how things could go wrong there. I love how you merged it with the demure and mindful story. Fantastic as usual.
Haven't gotten to that part of the video yet but many everyday people go to those monasteries for 2 reasons:
1. Kind of a national service with a spiritual base for young people post school. They tell me its not required but you won't really be seen as marriage material/responsible adult if you don't do it.
2. Many people go and stay for awhile for things like after a divorce or addiction rehab. Those times you need to regroup, uplift, and heal... It seems nice because people don't need to hit bottom or have insurance if they feel their lives are going down these paths.
But my point is they wear robes and are called "monks" but are not the more enlightened ordained leadership.
Just based on this I'd assume people from other cultures would lump them into one, not many everyday people attempting to navigate their life transitions in a solid way.
But I think there are posers in every religion that need to heal from being posers.
At this point, Josh's channel is where I get my news, current affairs and memes break down from.
I’m a psychiatric nurse. Often times I feel like I’m literally drowning from all the bullshit life throws at us, while trying to keep my head on straight at work. “YO STAND UP” will always be a funny story/saying to help me out going forward. Actually brought me to tears after cackling. Thaaaanks!!
As a Thai person, the turn of topic to those buddhist monks definitely got me on the ground laughing. Oh, they have been really baaaaad. 🤣🤣🤣 Not demure or mindful at all. Wonderful set as always, Josh.
I donate in thanks for hilariously explaining the noble truth of stress, the noble truth of the origination of stress, the noble truth of the cessation of stress, and the noble truth of the path of practice leading to the cessation of stress
Wow thank you so much! This is incredible
the rare comedian who can make jokes without profanities. You sir, are the definition of demure.
Reminds me of Trevor Noah! It’s no wonder they’re friends 😊
Very mindful
I've been following your channel for ages, love it!
Thank you for standing up with your presence for a healing nation.
Thank you. I really needed that right now. The suffering will end, there is a path out

Thank you, Josh, for always making my day better, even when I'm fighting depression.
You're the best. Greetings from Germany.
I didn’t really care about the "demure trend", so I didn't rush to watch this one. What a mistake. I thought I was here for the comedy, but his comments about ending our suffering was so needed as I try to move forward after my husband's death.
Historically there have been a lot of militant buddhist sects in Asia. During the feudal-era civil wars of Japan they'd often pick a side suddenly and show up to battles and start wrecking factions they didn't like.
I have been in 1 knockdown thrown down brawl and it was an unprovoked fight with a couple monks, I won’t say what region. I am talking full on brawl and any items such as a sewer lid or otherwise heavy objects came into play. It was a pretty surreal and crazy escalation on an afternoon meeting coworkers, out of the blue. Anyway afterwards we drank some beers together and they invited us to visit the monastery, region and families to show the hospitality and good nature.
These videos are a public service at this point
I'm one of the people who haven't been alive for the last couple weeks. I honestly had no idea why ive been seeing the word demure being used way more often than usual.
I just found out about this yesterday...🤷🏾♀
If you don't know, after the Demure trend took off, the original creator ended up making enough for her gender affirming surgeries and stuff!
rare internet W. that makes me smile.
That's great news
That’s so great, I didn’t know that!!!
That's wonderful!
@@HighAsHeckPriestess I learned today she is now providing housing for a close friend with mental health troubles as well
One time I was at a friend's house and someone came to pick us up. I walk up to the passenger door and open it, asking the passenger to get out so I can get in. I bent down and pulled the seat forward and hit the recline lever to lean the seatback over the dashboard. The driver got out and yelled at my friend "WTF?!" and as I stood up and put one leg into the car, I realized everyone was looking at me like there was a payness growing out of my forehead. I ducked and got into the car and slid over behind the driver. My friend opened the back door of the car and sat down next to me. He slid over to me, squishing me and tickling me whilst cackling with the other guys about how high I was. It wasn't until we pulled off and turned around in the cul de sac that I squealed WAIT THIS CAR IS A FOUR DOOR?! 🤦🏼♀️ Ahhh, to be 16...
7:54 100% agree. Also people who's resting face is a smile.
That pool thing was so funny. I was actually drowning in a lake at summer camp and my friends had a similar reaction. Like, is she drowning? I think she’s drowning.😂
Josh is making a good point about how most humans are drawn to practical jokes that hurt and cause shame. The Old Candid Camera was great, no one got hurt and even the jokee was laughing.
"we all did jackass btw, they just sat around and became home movies" 💯💯💯💯🤣🤣😥😥
Lmaoooooooo so true!! Forgot about those days 😂🤣
I've never hear of JackAss. Did Josh say it was your 'friends' who did this!?!
@@linmonash1244 lol no! Jackass was a series of movies that came out in the 2000s where a group of men would do absolutely stupid stunts. Like. Shoot one of them out of a canon or, as Josh said, one of the guys would go up behind their friend and kick him in the balls. None of these men were professionals or stunt men or anything like that. They were just every day dudes. (They got featured on Shark Week for the last couple of years, and one of their people actually got bit by a shark, if that tells you anything about their antics).
Before TikTok, InstaGram, Vine and when RUclips was a different website (used to be a place where people would share these more “home video” styled videos than the type of content it hosts today) Gen X and Millennials would use video cameras/camcorders to record ourselves doing whatever stupid shit we were getting into as preteens/teens lol. Because this took place in the days pre-internet/before the internet became an invasion of personal privacy (ie people treating social media like it’s their own personal diary, and the internet was seen as this weird, niche thing to chronically use) a lot of the stuff us Gen X & Millennials recorded is still on some physical VHS/DVD/chip somewhere lmao!
Basically the Jackass franchise represented the interests of a generation of young boys lmao! I guess they could be like “Influencers” before that was a thing- if “Influencers” filmed themselves head butting a beehive to get some laughs from their friends and had 0 interest in actually selling you anything 😂🤣
@@linmonash1244 "Jackass" was an American television show in which white male teenagers (or young adults who would subsequently never grow past teen mentality) hurt themselves and each other in increasingly imaginative, usually crude ways. It seems to me like a precursor to alpha-male internet culture, and something a lot of American kids injured themselves copying at home in the 90's and early 2000's

I could listen to Josh all day
Josh you are so hilarious! Love watching your career explode the last few years 🎉 Congratulations from Seattle
They don't know what demure means if bringing pastries to work is their definition! I can see this going wrong so fast - demure is one step away from tradwife. I was told my entire childhood and adolescence (in an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community) that a good Jewish girl is demure, meaning stays hidden and silent.
Agree completely @dainybernstein4751 Demure also meant submitting to male authority. Putting their needs above your own. It also could mean dressing "modestly" which controls our bodies and puts the responsibility of other men's thoughts and actions onto the woman.
No tradwife! We're not going back! Vote Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in November for freedom!
the creator jools has made videos about how the “very demure, very mindful” is 100% her dunking on herself and most (if not all) the things she says are not demure are things she has done irl (like wearing lime green eye shadow on her first day of work)
💯💯
Demure most definitely dinnae mean 'hidden' and 'silent'. Demure represents reserved, modest, shy, mature. Or basically, demure. If you grew up with it, no one needs to explain the definition. Proper etiquette would dictate all people behave demurely.
Jamaican girl, here. Same here. Demure is the law for us...lol. In traditional Rastafarian culture, the women STILL do not wear pants in public. But it is more of an expression of "feminine divinity" ...a little less "be a lady". I even took etiquette classes in school😁 (yes...they have that in America!lol) ....I say, you gotta learn the rules if you wanna break them! 💅🏾
Dropping wisdom, makin’ me smile, Josh you’re full spectrum
I love his stories! So funny, thoughtful, and informative. It's calming and grounding. ❤️🙏🏽
Josh, you're my favourite new comedian I've found. First saw you on The Daily Show and laughed my ass off, now the RUclips algo threw up your channel and I'm laughing my ass off again. I love your style, and you timing, and the substance of your content - all on point. If you ever do a show in New Zealand I'll be there. Much love.

Omg yes because im trying to figure out why this phrase is going around lol
u watching this is very mindful, very, dare i say, demure

Some-people become a monk only for the benefit, living of donations, some act like a mega church pastor, preaching the wrong message to trick people in to giving them money, Some even create a spin-off cult and do all sort of evil stuff. It's quite a big on-going problem in Thailand.
My sister 'became' a Buddhist, changed her name and decided she was far more spiritually 'superior' to everyone else in the family, and most everyone else as well. { She was - and still is- all about 'being superior'} After quite a while, of putting up with her and her shenanigans, and her chronic freeloading ( they must have been VERY patient ) they actually threw her out! The final straw, allegedly, was something to do with setting herself up as some kind of 'wise expert' and selling 'teachings'. It was explained to her that these were free teachings to the public and not for profiteering... Which she was quite outraged about. "What! We can beg - but not make a business?!? How DARE they tell me what NOT to do!" Years of Spiritual teachings and none of it sunk in.
