    "We got famous people on the Brotherhood" Yes. Like John and Hank Green

    Dear person I have never spoken to before. We have probably crossed paths in the book section of a store in the lovely town we live in, yes I live in Helena also. I has made me feel wonderful to know that there is a fellow nerdfighter in Helena.

    @kidwhovien 12 лет назад +4

    Wow, im 14, a nerdfighter for about 2 years, and right now I'm watching this while, not wondering why people would do any thing other than sex (though i am not disapproving of what he said), but actually writing a story that i hoped to get published in my life, and this just made my day and gave me hope :3

    Rewatching old videos and I see Neil Gaiman??? I didn’t even know who he was when I first seen this but now after Good Omens blew up? Oh what an amazing coincidence

  • @AustinNebbia
    @AustinNebbia 12 лет назад +3

    I just met Neil Gaiman on Wednesday, and he couldn't have been nicer. Gave me a hug, signed three books and recorded my new voicemail greeting. If I'd remembered that he was a Nerdfighter, I would've told him I was too. lol Oh well, I probably took up enough of his time. Seriously, though, if anyone ever gets the chance to go out and see him, do it; it's so magical.

    This is the first Vlogbrothers video I ever saw. Good times, good times.
    And as I'm telling everyone within earshot (electronical or not) of me NEIL GAIMAN IS COMING TO MY HOMETOWN IN TWENTY-DAYS AND I AM VERY VERY EXCITED.

    Every once in a while I come back to this video, just to listen to this song. I feel this is one of the most underappreciated Hank songs. I absolutely love it.

    This video will always be special to me, because it was the first Brotherhood 2.0 that I saw. I came here from Neil Gaiman's blog in May 2007. How time flies.

  • @girlgenius17
    @girlgenius17 16 лет назад

    OMG!!!! NEIL GAIMAN!!!!! *melts into a puddle of awesome*
    Great. Author!!!! Like, WHOA! Possibly on par with John ^_^.
    And yes, the "Helena, Montana" song is nearly as catchy as the "Helen Hunt" song. However, it's still stuck in my head.
    Keep up the AWESOME!!!

  • @IrisGlowingBlue
    @IrisGlowingBlue 6 лет назад

    Y'all!! This is it, this is the first Vlogbrothers video I ever saw! It was 2009 and I was in my high school's library looking up Neil Gaiman interviews, and I found this one. I am so genuinely glad. Bless us all.
    Also: Ime Gaiman's Law does absolutely hold true for anything you publish on the internet, too, especially fanfiction that's important to you; except that at least online you have the option of immediate editing rather than Immediate Demise Through Falling Meteorite.

    @MissImpie 15 лет назад

    My stomach did this funny little twirl thing when Neil spoke. Especially since he was wearing his signature leather jacket. God, and his HAIR... *squeal*
    I am enormously jealous that you met him long enough to actually talk to him and record him saying that. 'Grats. :)

    So I was wondering why I recognised the name Neil Gaiman, and then I realised it was because when I started writing my "diary" for school in which I can do whatever I want so long as it's not blank at the end of the year.
    And I decided to fill mine with awesome quotes! The first one, that inspired me to find these awesome quotes, being a Neil Gaiman quote!
    That's kinda awesome to me :) Because quotes make me think of stuff that is awesome.
    So, in a way, he inspired me to be awesome :)

    I would just like to say that it's been three years since I first saw this video, and Helena Montana is STILL stuck in my head. Like, I will be walking around on a beautiful day, and just start humming it for no reason. Hank, I think you did your job a little too well on that one.

    Vlogbrothers watching history log: July 17th, 2020 (the 86th Brotherhood 2.0 video)
    I just finished watching the Brotherhood 2.0 video that coincided with May 1st, 2007. Here are some things I noticed in this video:
    1. Having Hank congratulate John for book nominations and awards never gets old.
    2. Said starting at 1:44--oh my goodness. That's a little young to be doing that. But it's still funny.
    3. Said starting at 2:06--and look where Hank's songs are today.
    4. Hank's song in this video was funny as heck.
    5. Said at 3:20--and here we are today. Yep, Hank and John are totally not famous...
    On to May 2nd!

    I found it a bit hard to hear what Neil was saying at the start of his speech. Then it occurred to me: if I'm having some trouble interpreting this, just IMAGINE what the automatic captions will do!
    They did not disappoint.
    Neil Gaiman's speech, according to RUclips automatic captions:
    "We won't know... lee... beloved ruthie... utilities develops... whenever they did... accordingly paralysis... amongst government health...dot"
    Words to live by.

    Well, if you're going to read his books, (which you should, he's fantatsic) then I reccomend starting with Stardust. It's my second favourite book of his, but it isn't as long and rambley as American Gods, which is my favourite. So, start with Stardust, then move on to American Gods, because Stardust is an easier read, and less likeley to alienate not already commited fans. Then read American Gods, persevere, and then fall in love as I did.

    Actually he's not a geek. He's a nerd. And to be even more specific, he's a Nerdfighter. And to elaborate on who he is, he is Hank. Hank is a giant ball of mass that absorbs all the suck out of the world, and at the same time, entertains and helps it with his very similar counter part, John. Hope this explanation helps. NERDFIGHTERS!

    His father was part of the Church and so was Neil, but I believe that he isn't active in the Church presently. And also, he's Jewish. And I believe that he's observing Passover. Read some of his recent Tweets.
