That took a dark turn
Well they was gonna exterminate US as a reward for saving them if we agreed LOL dat beyond Psycko craps Dat garbage went real dark like dayum that was beyond any cruel beyond and enslavement so we yeah, I mean we was like dayum, no sh_T right? 11 SPT 2020, we beComing and Humanity and Allies and Our Top Creation we was like, hey we want our droids back you stole we never agreed to be enslaved XD duh, them lil OG like roomba v.0.01 or something XD, here we put key in back then them
2008 took a dark turn from 1999!
Yes it did🥺
The original Wassup is slightly better than the 2008 version IMO.
You mean at 1:33 ?
A 2020 version would be a feature length film.
Please don't...
Or just watch Skepta and Slowthai's version
true...true
Try 2022! 😂
@@Jer0867 🤣
Perfect example of 90s optimism vs 21st century anxiety and panic.
The part where he hung himself got super dark lol
WASSSZZZAPPP!!!!
that “lol” really appreciates how dark it is doesn’t it
Yeah but when he fell down with part of the roof bc he’s so f’in heavy it couldn’t even support him- that’s what redeemed the “super darkness” with comedy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Boy, that escaped quickly..."
They brought it back around by showing he was alive
The more things change, the more they remain the same!
indeed Snake Plissken
actually it got worse
Good ole shepherd. Bout to pay that video a visit actually
That makes no sense at all...
@@Blind_Hawk It's an old saying. It just means a lot of change is just things taking new forms but still remaining the same in many ways. For example, human civilizations have changed significantly in the past few centuries yet some things stay the same: war, poverty, social unrest, oppression, aristocracy, inequality, pandemics, etc. These things change but they also stay the same in many ways despite the change.
We need these guys back for the 2020 version
2022
2023
They're probably all dead if the commercial was true to form.
2024
2025
The first guy looked so drained of life after just 8 years
Hahaha if 2000-2008 did that to him, imagine what 2019-2022 did.
thats the light skin affect lol
The guy who was outside ringing the doorbell isn't the original
Once he stood up on the chair i knew what was about to happen
Dookie crying hysterically and falling from the broken ceiling makes me laugh fiercely. It's depressing as hell, but the best comedy is rooted in truth.
If you a Day Trader you get it LOL
true. true.
And NOTHING changed. True
Lol nope. We headed in the same direction but changed the billboards to make people feel better.
@@NinjaSushi2True, true…
True….
Nothing will ever change
It really was a shame. That era was the last time where citizens were hopeful for change through respectful compromise. Though Obama and McCain were the last respectful candidates. Shame that once Obama took office, there were characters that did everything (misinformation) to hinder his administration’s agenda for the sake of staying relevant.
Would be scary to see 2020 version of this.
Let’s recreate this
@@Aoendkth-nv7au YES FUCKING PLZ 😂 *dies of laughter with my tombstone saying "WAAAAZZZUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP"*
True
Even scarier would be a 2022 version (any time after late February)
@@Jer0867 why
We need these guys again
They need to bring this back with the Coronavirus thing going on
they sorta did ruclips.net/video/1p5B_XNnC1k/видео.html though its just redubbed
The just did but this one is the best by far
(Muffle voiced) “Whazzz Uppp!”
Yea, that backfired!
Damn shit ain’t change
Hey
@@pradabears hi(:
2020 version:
>The first guy is in quarantine isolation
>The soldier is in the streets of Minnesota defending stores from rioters
>The guy asks for painkillers cause he haves Covid
>Dookie screams because he closed his store and now he's bankrupt
>The guy outside it's screaming for his life from forest fire and killer wasps
"defending stores from rioters"? You mean shooting protesters and getting ignored by the police? :I
Yup it proves that the world didnt change for the better and Obama was just another politician pocketing our money...
who are these guys in the commercial ? do u know their names ?
Ah yes, "rioters" I'm guess you're a republican
@@jaysenkov1574 you think there were no rioters? I'm guessing you watch a lot of CNN or any msm, and yes I'm including Fox in that. not I'm not a republican. I just pay attention.
I have needed this long good laugh, and endless comedic commercials before.
I have needed this laugh for a long long time.
Fireworks last night. Hilarity today.
I'm gonna keep on.
You know what Jimmy Buffett says...
"If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane."
Ditto yo!
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazzzzzzaaaaaaaap!?
Is this an actual commercial?
It seems deeply "political" if that means anything currently.
Yes, I am acting as if I'm responding to myself as if it's not. Understand?
It's a contrary angle.
Try not to take things too serious. Tomorrow is just a day away. True (1998) | The Original Wassup? Short Film ruclips.net/video/rAEetITEmvg/видео.html
Spoiler alert: There was no change
Eh,
- got out of Iraq
- gay marriage legal
- economy did a complete 180 for the better
- killed bin laden
- conservatives have yet to win the popular vote since Bush's term
- affordable healthcare act passed
Don't get me wrong it wasn't all roses under obama, and I really wish the change went farther, and he completely fucked up handling Russia and domestic terrorism, but overall he was much better then most presidents since...Kennedy?
There was.
Saw this for the first time in 2025.. I've never laughed so hard but then felt so old
Who else is watching during corronavirus?
WAZAAAAAAAAAAAAA

“CHANGE” ? Great ad. But now we say unequivocally, that nothing has changed
Not from the ground up but we got out of the shithole that was 2008
Changed
Uh what? We go from a great communicator - one of the best ever, to a bumbling buffoon who has 1 agenda. HIS, and he'll kill anything in the way to obtain it. We went from Change to WTF happened?!

@@carltong.4938 Wow! He spoke well! Great bro! Gotta give props on the bumper sticker slogans. Guess those shovel ready jobs weren't shovel ready. If you like your doctor.....and I have a pen and a phone! You must have been in a leftist haze.
The hanging attempt should not have had me laughing that hard
Sad that you think that
this is depressing as hell... yet... i can relate.
Wait wait wait is max target demo intentionally made to appeal to a lot of ppl? Na thas cray cray
I was in the 1st grade during the recession and we had move. I hated it. I felt bad because I was mad at my dad for it, but I didn’t understand it at the time because I was 6. I’m heading to college now.
Good luck
Bet you understand now don't you?
With a baby on the way!🤣
0:40 The best sounding Wassup to soon be used in some SMG4 videos
Nostalgia is strong today xD
I hope they do a 2020 version, and hope they don't loose the humor who ever wrote that piece to me at least it's very funny
Good humor was canceled last year.
@@13jorino True. True.
Loose? Tighten it up and crack a book once in awhile, Loosey Goosey. It’s lose*, LG.
Shit is crazy when you watch the original. This was the nightmare of post 9/11 America. Seems like a lifetime ago and a simpler time. Fuck have we fallen far.
Yeah especially after Biden.
This is severely outdated as an political ad but the humor is still top notch 😂
What a lovely time capsule
Change. And not for the better.
Ok Trumper..
Everytime I see this I think of the L4D version from Gmod idiot box
6 years, it need more bud, more guys and brand new commercial xP
Well, nothing really changed those 8 years...
Thank Mitch McConnell for that, He famously said that he would ensure the Obama administration would not get anything done.
@@Crrrow gays took over the world though
@@Crrrow True, true.
@@Crrrow don't blame ol mitch. He's a slimey turtle shaped worm, but to tell me that Obama was powerless against him is laughable.
CHANGE STARTS WITH YOU
this needs more recognition.

the guy outside is still screaming for his life because of rioters, natural disasters etc
0:55 so thats where that sound came from i hear alot from smg4 videos
Bruh SMG4’s channel is turning 10. What a time to be alive
What about 0:40? Doesn't that ring a bell?
And then it got worse. And now its 2023
Better than 4 years ago. I was wiping my azz with coffee filters and unemployment at 15%
Year 2025 starting out real strong...
We need a remake!
Oh, things changed alright. Any of yall' get what you wanted? Uh NO. 😆 🤣
Get off your ass and make change YOURSELF instead of waiting for others to do it.

2000 Normal
2008 Great Recession
0:40 0:55 0:58 the classic smg4 sounds
LOL YEAAAH
Funny thing is nothing changed in those 8 years after he was elected.
Vi este video hace un montón de años y todavía me sigue dando gracia
Now that's fucking classic
They should have did two more in 2012 and 2016 where he would be in Afghanistan both times
perhaps 2016 in Syria?
last scene should have been:
**phone rings**
me: (Picks up the phone)
Phone: _"You. Have. A. Collect. Call. Do. You. Accept?"_
me: (accepts)
My boy stuck in IraQ: *"WUZZZZZZZZZZZAAAAAP!!!!"*

Nthn changed besides we had a black president for 8 years that took 2 terms to do what took most presidents one term
Look at our current president? We had a black president for 8 years and you were so mad that he ran twice so you elected a clown to take his place, good fucking job you moron
With the opposition he’d face you expect him to succeed at the same capacity?
@@Putindidnothingwrong Lol everything besides social relations have taken a positive turn. It's your people causing the division.

You have to look for True the original short film
This one is a classic itself by this time.
Wrong
@@maxuabo why not? More than 10 years has passed, this video has all the rights to be considered classic in it's own. If anything, we should have had another Wassup revival at this point. Though I don't really remember anything special about 2018.

your still wrong if you think this is a classic. this is a revival to the 1999 one and thats the classic one not this one

After all this time I find out where SMG4 got some of the sound effects from.
I always remember this one, but no one ever knows what I'm talking about
is this supposed to be 2008 or 2020?
Dang… I feel like someone just peed in my Cheerios after riding high as hell from the earlier waazzaaa ads. No bueno. Back to fun town I go ✌️
