Your videos are absolutely crazy amazing! Watched one and have been hooked since! Your humor is incredible too! Informative and hilarious, all at the same time!! Love it!!
As I was organizing my nightstand I thought of this video and laughed so hard I woke up the cat and scared the dog. The family is used to me, so they slept through my mirth. What sparked my joy was this: as a good minimalist-in-training, I had purchased a Himalayan pink salt nightlight. Or pink Himalayan salt nightlight. The terminology is still new to me. I got a night light made from salt. As an aside: I'm not fully committed to being a minimalist yet, hence the nightlight and not a table size lump of salt. (I actually got the nightlight for my kitten, who has chronic sinus issues due to a cleft palate, so I was more interested in the potential health benefits for Hardy. Plus, I like the cool pink glow in my room.) Anyway, the light came in this nifty little box and I promptly organized my nightstand. And burst into laughter at the thought of Marie Kondo and her room dedicated to storing empty tiny boxes. I was happy I had just kept that one and not consigned it to the shredder, to be made into compost--oh, wait. I'm getting minimalism crossed with zero waste. Right church, wrong pew. Anyway, the point is: you made me laugh. ETA: the minimalist in me does come back to edit my posts and remove the extra space RUclips puts between paragraphs.
@@Lefie You get two points! I'm was a ghostwriter of paranormal romance. This year I am going to start writing again in a less ghostly form and publish under my own name. Your video about the intentions behind minimalism did hit home with me as I was clearing out stuff from the house and my office. I feel a nice psychic shift after getting the physical clutter out of my life.
I just discovered your videos and they are great! I used to watch a lot of minimalism videos years ago but I stopped because they all kinda say the same things (and there's a lot of "woo-woo" factor). Your ideas are intelligent and down to earth, and I relate to them a lot. You're quite the film maker as well, and funny! Also, you quoted Bruce Lee, so you win a lot of points with me 😂
this is the content I've been scouring youtube for... thank you for the on point, aesthetic and sarcastic videos (I also would love to be friends with you but that's maybe beside the point)
So funny. I am binge watching you, can't get enough of a good thing. I should be focusing on sleep, but I just love your sense of humour, not to mention (...but I will...), the actual underlying advice about minimalism. You are going to be a RUclips star!⛦⛦⛦
Best and only satirical minimalist bid ever. I needed this! Exactly what you'd expect from someone who's actually been doing minimalism for a while now
As someone who is the total opposite, (not a hoarder, but i have everything single tool you would ever need) this makes me happy! To know the tots opposite exist makes me feel much better about it.
and what is soooo *shivers* scary an crazy is all those ppl who really act exactly like how you illustrate it in this film. Tho they say it with a huge portion of disgust and are convinced that there is only one way, the right way, that they are doing Everything right and that everyone else is wrong. To those ppl I just want to stick my tongue out make sounds, dance silly and laugh until they explode.
I just discovered you’re channel and I’m digging it. You teach new things but in a fun and interesting way. At least I can say ‘I was there when u had 40k’😂
You just quoted Bruce Lee, and now I love your channel even more! One of your videos was in my RUclips suggestion feed. I watched one video, SUBSCRIBED, and am now marathoning all of them!
I need to know the big secret. What am I supposed to do when all of my distractions are gone? I think I might just sleep a lot. This is an official video request.
Honestly, I can't even actually watch the videos, I just listen, she's so attractive. Also, hilarious. That wayne world esque bit of the "superbly useful" Ok, I peek lol.
lol I looked over myself at 1:02 and I was wearing the only kind of clothes I own: a black T-shirt and dark blue jeans! Yup, I'm still a minimalist, I guess...
PSA On off chance someone new to minimalism pops in here, Lefie likely knows the "20 20 rule" really is 2 decluttering questions: 1. Can it be replaced in 20 mins? 2. Can it be replaced for $20 (or less)? If answer to both is "yes" proceed to remove. If not, keep it. These 2 questions are only for difficult items you cannot decide whether to declutter or not. It ends up with you keeping the unique and expensive stuff you sorta like/want/need/use. Most of the time, folks don't run out to replace these things because by the time they actually miss the thing, it's gone obsolete, that version no longer is available and/or its price has increased and they now cannot justify the purchase as they are a minimalist and know they don't really need the thing, merely want it, it's a one trick pony, etc.
Re. Clothes, I recently experienced a strong desire to give all my colorful clothes to a charity, And just keep the black, white and a few even pastel color ones.
Funny editing! And FYI Mari Kondo doesn’t claim to be a minimalist. Do you think that those examples are evidence of obsession or passion? I’m hoping it’s the latter. And yes I did count my clothing after watching this just to be sure I’m still in the club! Lol
Thanks! I'm frankly not sure about the obsession or passion - I'm adamant that everyone can do this in the way that works best for them and still call themselves "a minimalist." Whatever floats your boat!
In college I kept 80% of my stuff in cardboard boxes that got from Amazon and other packages. Whenever I needed to move, most of my stuff was already packed and it was awesome. Also, you should make some merch that is literally just a black T-shirt and black pants.
Great idea, I would nevertheless decorate the boxes I think... What's the point with such merch ? It's funny :-) and then we wouldn't have to think about where to buy one.
And another chortle, but I'm alone so no animals were harmed in the writing of this comment. I just saw the uff da... I'm a Norwegian/Swede originally from Wisconsin.
@@Lefie You would be related to my son; McKenzie is my ex-husband's last name. The McKenzie clan is all from around Richland Center and Bear Valley. I'd happily choose to be related to you; you seem like a very nice young lady...old school Wisconsin Lutheran church lady coming out there...haha. I am no longer any of those, but you're still okay in my book.
You were absolutely stunning in that dress with your hair up. That was one heck of a visual effect. You know your power....(coming from a hetero woman).
Ha! You're going to have to check out my "Minimalist Apartment Tour" video to see what's usually in the room. And my "Change Your Perspective" video to see more of my twin. 😉
I think a minimalist lifestyle would do away with a lot of the clutter and stuff that stresses me out all the time, too bad I'm too lazy to do anything
LOL, "my dear, close, personal friend Marie Kondo. . ."
😉
I died after she said that 🤣🤣🤣
I'm so happy I found you before your channel blows up, because we all know it's going to soon!! Absolutely fantastic editing, love it!
Thanks, Sarah! 😊
Same here!!!!
I’m binging the videos and can’t stop 😭
count me in
Sometimes I’d like to be able to purchase stocks in a RUclips channel when I notice it will inevitably grow
I’m a minimalist crazy cat lady. I only have one cat. Lol
Gina Rountree me too, not by choice, one died😓
does it serve 18 purposes? :S
OMG, me too. Lol. I love this statement!
"...if not, I apologise...on your behalf. Apology accepted." Brilliant!
Your videos are absolutely crazy amazing! Watched one and have been hooked since! Your humor is incredible too! Informative and hilarious, all at the same time!! Love it!!
The youtubers who doesnt says please subscribe at the end are the best.
Cryz Peter agree
100%
Your comedic timing and dry wit is impeccable. Echoing everyone else when I say I can't wait to see you inevitably become massively popular!
If Maryl Streep and Helen Hunt had a badass baby.
"I apologize on your behalf. Apology accepted." Thanks, this is becoming a part of my standard vocabulary now. 😂

@0:50 you look so cute in the orange colored dress.
Ahaha... Thanks, Nirupama! 😁

"Superbly useful" you crack me up!! ^.^ I just discovered your channel last night and so far I adore it. ^.^
This is the channel I need in my life right now. Thank you so much
I am in love with your channel I can’t believe just found you
Best and only satirical minimalist bid ever. I needed this!
Exactly what you'd expect from someone who's actually been doing minimalism for a while now
Thanks, Rachel! 😊
Brilliant. Love me a generous dose of insightful sarcasm!
The video sparks joy
Thank you ! I do learn so much from you , even I am 65 y ! You are an amazing person and agree with you 110% !!! :-)
Thank YOU for watching, Georgeta! 😊I love your name.
I love the short and sweet ‘to the point’ style of your videos. No long intro explaining how you’re going to explain what you’re going to do
As someone who is the total opposite, (not a hoarder, but i have everything single tool you would ever need) this makes me happy! To know the tots opposite exist makes me feel much better about it.
Love the Monologue! Great delivery! You get the part! Acting is your calling!
Gosh, your videos are soo good!
I've been binge-watching them since yesterday.
and what is soooo *shivers* scary an crazy is all those ppl who really act exactly like how you illustrate it in this film.

It's refreshing to watch your videos 😅 addition to the subscribers here :)
Best minimalist videos EVER.
Seriously, thank you for your work.
(in a deep voice) I do like your style.
do the neighbours complain about the echo? Do they wonder who u r always talking to? You r funny and great! Love it!
Ahahaha, I love that you thought of these questions! I told them I make videos right when I started, so no worries. 😅
I just discovered you’re channel and I’m digging it. You teach new things but in a fun and interesting way. At least I can say ‘I was there when u had 40k’😂
You just quoted Bruce Lee, and now I love your channel even more! One of your videos was in my RUclips suggestion feed. I watched one video, SUBSCRIBED, and am now marathoning all of them!
your wink in the end reminds me of makeup artist Wayne Goss ))) he does it in every video of his.
Just looked him up! You're right! 😉
Love your sense of humour
I'm so glad I found this channel today.
Make a video about minimalist cleaning and floor bed.
Thank you for making my life awesomer. Like, legit.
The editing is super seamless awesome.
The creation of these videos must have great intrinsic value, I mean awwwwww but coool🔥😭
I think your channels blown up! 😄❤️
No idea why RUclips suggested your videos my way but, yeah. I subbed.
I need to know the big secret.
What am I supposed to do when all of my distractions are gone? I think I might just sleep a lot.
This is an official video request.
I apologize on your behalf, apologies accepted. LOL this is some funny shit right here
😉
Whispers of JP Sears-- in a good way.
I really enjoy your videos! Great stuff :*
Thanks, Poulami! 😁
Honestly, I can't even actually watch the videos, I just listen, she's so attractive. Also, hilarious. That wayne world esque bit of the "superbly useful" Ok, I peek lol.
You are so funny!!! 😂
Btw I have been starting to make the sound you do after the end of your videos lol
lol I looked over myself at 1:02 and I was wearing the only kind of clothes I own: a black T-shirt and dark blue jeans! Yup, I'm still a minimalist, I guess...

@@Lefie Minimalist merch confirmed 😉
OBSESSED. You are so awesome.
She is adorably witty!
That humour and sarcasm 🥰🥰🥰😏
Even your outro is minimal.. I love it
That ingenious character is hard to top babe
And another chortle, but I'm alone so no animals were harmed in the writing of this comment. I just saw the uff da...
I'm a Norwegian/Swede originally from Wisconsin.
I have McKenzie family members from Wisconsin - I think we're related!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Another fabulous video. THANK YOU!! And you’re welcome . . . on your behalf. 😉
Me: *sees thumbnail* wtf is that kool aid
I am a minimalist. I tried the whole sitting and sleeping on the floor thing. I could not do it I like my recliner and bed.
i love zen habits lol
hahahahhahaha " i would know, I have been to her house " hahahahha Im dying
Just found your channel i love it your humor is amazing 😊
I freaking died when you mentioned the uniqlo shirt omg hahahahaha ouuuPs 🌝 me me me lol
Hi Lefie! Where’s your backpack from?
It seems that you need a few things purely to be functional and absorb sound... towels on the wall perhaps.
You're so great!
Love your snarkiness!
You looked really good in that red dress!
Why do I feel like you’re from the Midwest? .. must be the Vikings helmet from another video.. lol but loving your take on this minimalist thing 🖤🖤
So......is that room still empty? Was it empty before? Where did that person at 3:23 come from? I demand answers!
Ha! You're going to have to check out my "Minimalist Apartment Tour" video to see what's usually in the room. And my "Change Your Perspective" video to see more of my twin. 😉
I actually don't want to be a minimalist. I'm just here cuz you wink at me.
😉
Love your humour 🤣
Ha. Ha the KoolAid! 😂😂😂
It only takes a few mins a day... 🤣
hi, i'm in love with you
I love you.
Covid19 brain hears "Bruce Lee" auto translates it to "Bruce Springsteen" and wonders if that "empty cup" song is on YT
Is that room almost fully lined with heaters?! And I'm sittin' over hear like a schmuck with one baseboard heater per room.
Even your hair "got lazy" when you changed into your black outfit.
You’re cool.
I think a minimalist lifestyle would do away with a lot of the clutter and stuff that stresses me out all the time, too bad I'm too lazy to do anything
Love your videos. Are you on social media?
I'm not, sorry!
O love to see you, on only black. Hugs
❤️
I bought a shirt today and immediately punished myself. jk
Can I get the laws with the sarcasm filtered please?!?
Who’s shirt is that?
No, I don't want to be a minimalist. Just want to be me.
not gonna lie she had me fooled
