you just know every time he picks a winner he’s working it into conversations for the next week at _least._ “yeah, say, that reminds me of my latest get. i managed to find this one of bob dylan coming out of a 7-11 all sweaty on a humid evening in 2009, looking like a late-stage _johnny depp._ they’re actually retracting his nobel prize for literature, it’s that bad…”
Chris perfectly imitating a kind of person who doesn't exist in our world, and yet has clearly left traces of their presence, is staggering to behold. It's like if a theoretical physicist led occult improv classes on the side.
there's something capital p platonic about it. like he's been to the plane of the forms and seen things realler than we can comprehend but much like the guy from the allegory of the caves he can only communicate it to us in an imperfect medium we can understand, youtube comedy
@@mothvamp2931I’m so curious as to why you felt the need to specify it was “capital p platonic” but refused to capitalize the p. I can only assume your caps key is broken or you have a very specific personal moral code.
I was initially going to say he looked like a high school World History teacher, but then I remember my WH teacher was a libertarian who would spend precious class time screeching about his opinions on the economy, state's rights, & free speech whenever given the chance.
Yeah, I've always been an iPod guy, and the idea of the picture appearing on the screen not being the album artwork (or maybe a special single album artwork piece) is really strange to me.
not in mine, but driving in someone else’s car when i have the AUX, it’s a nonstop cringe conga line. I swear one of the images was a stretched out live image of one of the band members‘ legs.
@@witchflowers6942 dunno who you are, but your post made me laugh so hard I literally fell of my couch! I know it's 4 months old, but : YOU HAVE WON THE INTERNET!! I hereby crown you thus!
You can’t go into the search with hater energy. You have to immerse yourself in the vibe of a well-meaning grandma who wouldn’t know a good photo if it slapped her in the street. That’s a hard sentiment to emulate
Uh, yea ... with a name like "Rufus Wainwright," there's virtually nothing you could do to impact this dude's public image, ever -- either plus or minus-side. Jokes practically write themselves; fossilized animals that have been dead for millions of years & never developed languages even whilst they were alive, well ... the biosphere reverberates w/ their laughter over "Rufus Wainwright." 😂
Having never driven a car from this century I had absolutely no idea what "the pictures that show when you play music in the car" was supposed to mean until he showed it
Before I clicked I thought it might be about Spotify pages/songs that seem to have been taken over/uploaded by random internet dudes, then I watched and realized it’s probably because the radio/dashboard display is just grabbing their photo from Wikipedia (wiki celeb photos are famously terrible due to the site only allowing images that are royalty free/in the public domain, which, from a corporate liability perspective, makes them “perfect” for this use case)
One time “Thank You, Next” came on in my friend’s car with a picture of Ariana Grande from Sam & Cat. It’s like the image picker guy really wants to humble the stars
"the guy who works at the hiking boots store?" fuck me i work at REI and i have so many coworkers that look like him. all wonderful dudes but yeah christ that was a precision strike.
Finally, a Chris video that I show my mom and have her laugh instead of questioning my sanity. (But real talk, my mom and I laugh all the time about the terrible photos used for car music. Any artist over the age of 45 just looks like someone's aunt or uncle who's patiently waiting their turn for more potato salad at the family reunion)
Him and the guy who write the captions for Windows lockscreens drink boba together while plotting how to make everyone feel slightly uncomfortable and question reality.
the fact that i can (almost) always reverse-engineer your precise thought process in coming up with these videos only makes them a thousand times better
he definitely dealt with this for like 2.5 years before realizing how bad the artist pictures are, snapping, and making this video, either that or he got a new car and immediately noticed the change and made this video
referring to the chainsmokers as omnicron and delta is one of the best things i have ever heard, i love your brain so much. this is so my type of humor, i love when someone just gets it. love all these gets.
THATS NOT EVEN KAVINSKY!! That’s the owner of his record label, who has WAY weirder photographs of him available. He DID invent the Impossible Burger, though, so that’s correct. Normally a huge fan of the guy who chooses the photos that are displayed when you play music in your car but this is honestly a huge misstep. Not sure if I can move past it.
I just got my first modern car with CarPlay this year and I’ve been constantly cackling at the weird pictures or genre classifications from 2016. This skit is so perfect. I’ve basically been wondering all year like… where do these pictures come from??
Okay so it's an Apple Carplay thing.. thank you. I was trying to figure out what specific circumstances someone would have to be in, to relate to this.
genuinely mind-blowing how talented you are at taking any mundane silly thing and building an entire universe of a sketch about it that makes me laugh so hard i start coughing
the same is true of wikipedia articles -- i have a feeling they dont have the money for the licensing of the image so they just use public domain images which are usually pretty dirty
Ah yes. This video reminded me that it’s the time of year where I watch what to do when your boyfriend proposes on Christmas, phantom of the opera docking his boat, and binge gayle for the 12th time💚
i literally just want to see the album artwork of what I'm listening to, the worst offender for me is the spotify fullscreen mode on desktop HOLY MOLY PLEASE I DONT WANT TO SEE A MASSIVE PICTURE OF THE ARTIST AAAAAA
I might not get every joke you make, but understanding some incredibly oddly specific ones cracks me up better than any other videos out there. Keep 'em coming!
Sir? Sir, I’m super invested in your side hustle, totally respect the grind and believe me, I want to here more but… I can’t give you five stars if you don’t start driving. I’m going to miss my train.
Trying and failing to raise money for owl research felt painfully pointed and I love it AH THE CHAINSMOKERS I have loved this person for literally a decade, the hits never miss
I adore you Chris I’ve been following and subscribed for years and your content always makes me cackle. You’ve been through all my tough times and you don’t even know it lol. Thank you❤
My favorite work of yours is the generic photos that pop up sometimes. The hip hop one is a masterpiece. It looks exactly like wannabe gangsta teenager from a small town in Indiana. A close second is pop. That one looks like a glamour shot from the 90’s.
Oh yes we're getting a resurgence of Chris' classic car talks. If we get to, at some point, get to see Chris' impression of an uber driver going dangerously below the speed limit whilst talking about how the world changed after Taylor swifts recent tour, I can die peacefully (after another 70 years of course)
The Kavinsky one is so funny because there's like a million studio-grade photos of him with his cool jacket and glasses and bisexual lighting but the pic just had to be the one where he looks like a guy who only sings covers of Father John Misty

yeah every car i've been in has just shown the album art and that's it
Lol 2004 car owner here, I was equally baffled
This is one of those bits I feel like you could do for half an hour and i would love the whole thing
Yes! I was so disappointed when the end screen stuff popped up because I'd gotten so sucked in lol
at 2 minutes in I got confused by your comment because the video seriously felt like a half hour to me, chris warped a part of my brain
Yup, Chris Fleming will do this to you. He has some sort of weird alchemy w/ the time-space continuum.
One time “Thank You, Next” came on in my friend’s car with a picture of Ariana Grande from Sam & Cat. It’s like the image picker guy really wants to humble the stars
I misheard that bit about Lisa Loeb as “a pescatarian on a plane” and the joke still landed. What magnificent Gets.
"A pescatarian on plane..."
D!ng, dude, I stealing that ... !

"the guy who works at the hiking boots store?" fuck me i work at REI and i have so many coworkers that look like him. all wonderful dudes but yeah christ that was a precision strike.

i watched the entire thing through the youtube thumbnail autoplay feature simply because i got so sucked in
I would donate to that man’s owl research
"looking like an absolute ferret owner"
"their vibe already, is so RANCID"

so glad someone is finally shedding light on this phenomenon
As a poor person it took me a solid minute to figure out what he was talking about 😅
this is the first ive heard of this phenomenon 😅 but i still thoroughly enjoyed it
the same is true of wikipedia articles -- i have a feeling they dont have the money for the licensing of the image so they just use public domain images which are usually pretty dirty
i’ve been talking about this for YEARS
I could’ve watched this character go on for 2 and a half hours showing rancid photos of celebrities without noticing, it’s that good.
That explains that one photo of St. Vincent where she looks like a suburban soccer mom trying her hardest to get me to sign up for Herbalife.
You are one of the few comedians who gets my sense of humor is based on hyperspecific and relatable similes 🤣

Thank you for all your hard work, good sir. You will be appreciated forever.
(Am I thanking Chris or this character? The answer is yes.)
I love what you did for maroon 5 i didn't know you could hire a gaggle of pool boys before i saw their photo
I think i've been watching this video almost everyday for the past weeks
Sir? Sir, I’m super invested in your side hustle, totally respect the grind and believe me, I want to here more but… I can’t give you five stars if you don’t start driving. I’m going to miss my train.
I keep coming back to this. May be one of my favorite videos on this site.

Chris’s talent for metaphors and similes is UNMATCHED.
This feels like such an Old RUclips-style video, man. It's so funny
"She's hitting the fife at a Minute Man reenactment" fucking sent me

"Absolute ferret owner" is the type of insult you spend your life waiting for an opportunity to use.
Chris is the Magnus Carlsen of "judgmental guess who"
Oh great time to binge the entire Chris Fleming catalogue again
iphone (65) is so intriguing to me personally
Whenever you see Chris sitting on a patch of grass on the side of a gravel road, you know it's gonna be a good time.
Apple when they decided in 2008 that everytime I played an Iron Maiden song the 'Dance of Death' album cover is displayed.
“When she looked like an absolute ferret owner” 😂😂
“She’s hitting the fife in Minute Man re-enactments” is what got me 😂
i feel like he saw that specific prince picture and the entire skit followed. i love your shirt. btw. :)
im really starting to think this is the only plausible explanation…
This is one of my favourite Chris Fleming videos
My music player for years replaced the album art for every single song, regardless of the artist, with a blurry sepia-toned picture of Marty Robbins.
