I work as a technical writer writing How to documents for software. One job I had actually involved How to Collect Advertising Data on RUclips to Resell to Content companies, so this hits close to home. 😂
How to Stop Worrying actually meant a lot to me. I had gotten laid off and was struggling through interviews but I had just discovered your channel, so that sketch really lifted my spirits at the time. But dang, now I wish I had known to call the number. 😂
I just LOVE those compilations with added commentaries which give us more insight into your process! It appears that most of your "How To" sketches were a while ago. Perhaps we need some more recent ones!
three things that I found absolutely hilarious in this compilation: 1. The casting decisions of the how to play a villain sketch. 2. The overacting at the end by the invigilator trainee. 3. The exorcism. That's it. That's the comment.
I was an invigilator for 5 years after retiring from teaching, your sketch was ace! Only one point, we often don't announce the remaining time, it's thought by some people that it will distract the candidates from their train of thought. The finish time is on a whiteboard at the front, and if they can't read a clock, they deserve to be surprised at the end. I always mentioned 5 minutes, though, these were pupils that I had taught in previous years and I still cared about them.
I used to not know how to deal with life, but now, thanks to Foil Arms and Hog, I know perfectly well how to deal with any situation👍 Thanks Foil Arms and Hog!!👍👍👍😃 I love you guys, you are just brilliant!!💗💗💗
FAH confession: the first videos I ever saw of you guys were the ones about Brexit and the UK so I truly thought it was an educational channel. Then about a year ago I found all of your other videos and just fell in love with them ❤️ Now I’m one of your patrons and completely addicted! Keep up the amazing work guys! 🤓
😂😂😂 yes!! I forgot the brexit song! That one and the Covid song went viral I think. Thats how I found them. And really they are quite clever and educational!!
This was a great idea for a compilation; it was lots of fun to see all these sketches again! The commentary in between was delightful, too (although unexpectedly missing for the last two sketches - what happened there?). I thought the intro was especially cute - you can't fool us, and certainly not each other! 😄
@@Emma_W_ and the fact they're doing group x rays and making sick people sleep in bunk beds. None of it is practical or safe and I just love it so much 🤣
Seeing you three staring as "yourself" just after learning you guys have real people names and the belated realisation that are real individuals who are friends, is kinda surreal. Thanks to the recently uploaded Grammar short.
How to Destroy a Family is great! One of the most relatable :D. Also love How to Be Late for Work, How Not to Tell a Story, and How to Invigilate an Exam! Great compilation!
Showing your video, lads, for the first time to my Grandpa. Him: 'How can I know who's who ?' Me: 'Easy Grandpa, they always sit in the right order, you have Foil, Arms...and...Ops, no, for once, they didn't. Never mind, just remember: they are the best ! 😅'
I had not seen the Monopoly sketch before, so I was delighted to see a living incarnation of mannequin lady, one of Conor's finest ever moments. It's to do with the amazing pitch change he achieves. That automatic transition to pre-menstrual tension desperation. The moment when a deeply devoted and loving mother becomes psychotic!
my absolute favorite sketches in a compilation. Thank god all the titles start with a 'how to/not to''.. Multiple rewatches incoming, lads! And the "lads, lads" chant produced the biggest smile on my face, cuz Gerald and Stephen are my absolute favourites. 😍 Thank you, lads.. - A not so young humanoid
Really awesome compilation, it was really fun to watch them all again. ❤ The monopoly sketch is really funny, maybe you can do a family centered sketch again?
I love all of these!! I hadn't realised how much I enjoy these type of sketches. I'd watched a lot of them recently - a good sign! (not just a sign I watch quite a lot of sketches, quite a lot of times, quite often...). 😬
I still think Foil and Gerald are the ultimate couple. They rival Mrs. Flanagan and Oisin, who as we all know, are the power due of any situation. Lads sketches are still hilarious after watching them on repeat for god knows how many times.
Need to watch this later in peace. Looks like the campaign is working with recent steady climb in subscriber numbers. I hope it ultimately pays off and the guys get to 1m by the end of the year as they hope
My physical appearance has changed a bit in the last 3 years, but it's not always immediately obvious in photos. But then I took a photo with them in 2019 and then in 2022. They looked basically the same. I feel like photos next to them have become a hilarious time capsule for me of how I look. Fingers crossed I'll see them in 2024 and I'll take another photo. 😆
Good luck with your Canadian tour this week, lads! (Nova Scotia just got flooded with a record amount of rain, so the folks in Halifax will need some cheering up for sure!)
If you went to my school you would all be trying to stem your giggles as you waited for the main invigilator to declare all the warnings and exam rules, because we had the same teacher who had done it for EVERY exam EVER taken for EVERY year in the school for the past thirty years, and despite slight updates to the technology banned as the years went on, nothing changed. As so we would all be waiting for him to start reeling off at a million miles an hour “You are not allowed to be in possession of a mobile phone, computer, or any digital device capable of recalling data…if you need assistance or more paper, etc, etc.” And we would all be giggling by the time he’d finished giving a two minute speech in about twenty seconds. Highlight of every exam.
We were in a sales meeting and a coworker came in late. The boss says "You're late" and the coworker says (with nose in air) "I take my time from the atomic clock in Boulder Colorado". The boss was so amused and taken aback that he let it go!
I wish you best of luck for the show in Montreal. I saw you in Dublin last year. Was waiting to see you in Montreal but I can't be there! I am in another part of Quebec that evening giving a presentation on ... Ireland!
Thing is would a Irish man settle down with an English Woman!! Have one thing in my favour I do support Celtic FC/Rugby, and hate Soaps especially EastEnders
I wish you shared the video YOU must have watched on how to make amazing sketch comedy, because there has to be a method! You always hit home runs! Even in your compilations! Thanks! This was great!
If you want to look at someone behind you while walking you can turn your head right or left (like you're looking at something) you can see them right in the corner of your eye.
How to write a RUclips comment.
Edit : 1k likes omg guys.
My phone is going crazy.
Mommmmm! I am famous.
I generally dont do this but thank you all so much for the likes.
@@shramanadasdutta3006You wish 😂.

Thank goodness. I had no idea how to before this comment but now!!! Life savers lads 😂👍
"Here at Foil Arms and Hog, we are more about education than jokes." A fantastic joke if I ever heard one. 😆 Love you guys
I mean, they're responsible for teaching me 99.7% of what I know about Irish culture, so education isn't too far off either.
@@TotoDG Me too. 😂
It would be cool if they did some more irish specific sketches, like the one with the police or kerryman.
@@Ensign_RoqueI especially loved “Will Northern Ireland Get Back with Ireland?” That’s 100 years of history in 1 dating show. 😂
They are The Great Educators! I use several of their sketches in my English (ESL) classes 😁
Gerald ❤ But "When I was a humanoid of no specific age" is one of the best lines ever written 😂
Haha thanks 😊
I’ve gone back to rewatch that specific part for that specific line multiple times.
The how to be a bad guy - still get chills from it, so good! And the how to apologise, be late, and stop worrying are such gold 😂

Then about a year ago I found all of your other videos and just fell in love with them ❤️ Now I’m one of your patrons and completely addicted! Keep up the amazing work guys! 🤓
I’ve always felt that FAH shares a similar style to Mitchell and Webb, which has quite a few history-themed sketches, and Horrible Histories. 😊
Pretty soon you’ll find your way to see them in person. Peak FAH experience!
I’ve booked my ticket ;)
😂😂😂 yes!! I forgot the brexit song! That one and the Covid song went viral I think. Thats how I found them. And really they are quite clever and educational!!
Brexit was also my first and also thought it was educational
I used to be an Exams Officer and showed the How to be an invigilator during my training. Went down an absolute treat
It's official. This is my favorite compilation of your sketches of all time 💯💯💯
How to love Foil Arms & Hog even more 🥰
Thanks for this brilliant compilation!!
I have read that as "Every Hog Video Ever" and was like "wow" 🤣🤣
This was a great idea for a compilation; it was lots of fun to see all these sketches again! The commentary in between was delightful, too (although unexpectedly missing for the last two sketches - what happened there?). I thought the intro was especially cute - you can't fool us, and certainly not each other! 😄
13:05
"That's unhealthy"
"meh, it's grand"
The Lads sketch is one of my all time favourites!
A random Hog at 14:21? Fair enough 🤷♀️ can't have too much Hog.
'Pulled a Tom' is always my favourite 😂
What are you on about. HOW TO DESTROY A FAMILY is one of your best sketches.
How to fix the health service is ridiculously funny, it's one of my faaaavourites!!!
It's the tone (sad face. lol.) and the screaming. I'm always waiting for the screaming 😂
@@Emma_W_ and the fact they're doing group x rays and making sick people sleep in bunk beds. None of it is practical or safe and I just love it so much 🤣

Love your compilations.. It's like a visit from a good friend you haven't seen in a while ❤
Love, love Hog’s expression as an ESL student eager to learn! So sweet and earnest! And odd….
also love it when you let your black curls grow long….❤
Showing your video, lads, for the first time to my Grandpa.
Him: 'How can I know who's who ?'
Me: 'Easy Grandpa, they always sit in the right order, you have Foil, Arms...and...Ops, no, for once, they didn't. Never mind, just remember: they are the best ! 😅'

This was "How to Create a Colletion of Some of the Best FAH Classics"!
How do I stop watching this video? It's too good
As a language enthusiast, "What even accent is that?" "Oh... like an evil accent" made me lol
Really awesome compilation, it was really fun to watch them all again. ❤ The monopoly sketch is really funny, maybe you can do a family centered sketch again?
I love all of these!! I hadn't realised how much I enjoy these type of sketches. I'd watched a lot of them recently - a good sign! (not just a sign I watch quite a lot of sketches, quite a lot of times, quite often...). 😬

Nothing wrong with coffee and donuts unless you hate coffee and donuts btw the 2 Seans and Conor aged phenomenally 😂😂

@@laurenconrad1799would like to see them but work and travel cause I live in Ireland they rarely they visit the county I'm in 😂😂
Good luck with your Canadian tour this week, lads! (Nova Scotia just got flooded with a record amount of rain, so the folks in Halifax will need some cheering up for sure!)
You guys are adorable! I love your comedy, silly and sweet. Thank you for the breath of fresh air.
I miss your office set and office-related videos, simply because you all look good in suit and tie
The hospital sketch was just 👍👍
Thanks for the advice about how to destroy a family. It was very useful.
These men never fail to give me a smile and a laugh
I loved the monopoly one especially 😂.
Oh what I wouldn't do to see a Conor stand-up show...
Should have included the how-to-cook-salmon video, old but one of my all-time favourites!
The Queen: *slams door open and walks in*
others: you're late!
The Queen: A Queen is never late, everyone else is simply early
Haha the how to be a lad ones and how to play the villain are my faves 💚

Pulled almost all late for work ones.
I really love hearing the backstories of the clips! And these were all fantastic!
I wish you best of luck for the show in Montreal. I saw you in Dublin last year. Was waiting to see you in Montreal but I can't be there! I am in another part of Quebec that evening giving a presentation on ... Ireland!
Oh my goodness!!! You guys are truly madly deeply the best of the best comedians I have ever watched!!! So clever, funny and wholesome!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very hard to pick a favourite of course but the Monopoly one is so true🤣
The Monopoly one was one of your best ever!
Been aching for this compilation for aaaaaages!!! And I love how you just assemble these by hitting CTRL+F on Arms's hard drive 😅😅
Woooh one of my top 5 sketches ever is based on one of Arms's standup routines well that shouldn't really surprise me at all ... brilliant!
We could have had GERALD LIVE??? Good heavens!!
F&H came up with the best evil character. Except the tick.
my favourite from how to sneak a peek is "the exorcist"
"The Twitterazi" sounds so real.
Whatever the topic, FAH have got you covered! Our good humour encyclopedia 😄 Best of luck with your tour!
The worry one..had me on the floor
I need a least slaggable jumper for my college reunion
The Award-sketch is my favourite 😂😂😂😂. And the Lads!
The Monopoly one was a hilarious one -- only topped by the how to be an evil villain! Thanks for all those years of great sketch comedy!
11:54 arms ability to turn into a psychopath is truly unnerving
I SHOULD HAVE A RUEST TO SETTLE DOWN WITH AN IRISH MAN AS I WOULD NEVER STOP LAUGHING!!
Thing is would a Irish man settle down with an English Woman!! Have one thing in my favour I do support Celtic FC/Rugby, and hate Soaps especially EastEnders
"how to say sorry without saying sorry: the sing song"
Needs more ukulele
Hey guys I remember how late for work 😂😂😂😂😂😂 love this video
I wish you shared the video YOU must have watched on how to make amazing sketch comedy, because there has to be a method! You always hit home runs! Even in your compilations! Thanks! This was great!
I love you’re comments on old videos!
The quick change is my favourite how to be late. x
All those sketches are gold!! Foil 😍 I'm big fan of you humour.
How to be late for work. I must have used about half of these over the years.
Fantastic Comedy!Never laughed so hard, thank you so so much. 👍❤️🇨🇦
🎉
Invigilator is gold.
@22:o8. ''I mean, can we stack people horizontally??'' No, but one may be able to stack people vertically!
Brilliant 😂 🎉 the worry line skit and the Dublin language school really got me!
love the honesty of the last late guy
I am a quaker and we use the Gregorian calendar & if we didn't we'd def use the word "day"😂😂🤣🤣 lmao sooo funny
16:28 My Grandma likes playing Rumicup :) Brilliant Monopoly sketch !
For some reason i especially like the last one with the audition. The ending was so unexpected!
Unexpected: today I learned the word "invigilate." (In the US we would say proctor)
17:10 Rummikub: uniting Great Aunties everywhere
The invigilator and the no worries was beyond genius. You guys should be on the millions of subscribers by now. Is beyond me how you are still not.
21:19 he sounds like the boots boots boots moving up and down again guy
7:50 What a strong finish!
The first line was spoken that seriously that I almost, just almost believed it 😉
But I do use your videos to talk about/teach puns and wordplay 😁
If you want to look at someone behind you while walking you can turn your head right or left (like you're looking at something) you can see them right in the corner of your eye.
I’m so glad i found this channel 😂
'it sounds like i've got multiple personality disorder' 😂😂😂
I laughed so much ! Monopoly and the last one are my fav, but loved the other ones two 😂😂
4:05 “when i was a humanoid of unspecific age“ nice :D
How to subtly tell people you've upgraded your home and office.
The threat of eminent violence 😂
I'm late to the party as usual, but this time I don't mind. I'm watching it on my birthday 😊 love vintage sketches. And new ones. Thanks lads! 💙
Boss: "You're late." Me: "I know."
"Fill-um " 😂😂😂😂😂 gets me every time
Oh so glad to see a Monday compilation 😂🎉
