@@connortait9756 ayy, you do you! Don't let the universe bring you down. Just remember that there are many jobs out there beyond what you initially studied for, and a lot of those jobs will say that they need a degree that you don't have. Apply for them anyway. You learn more than just hard skills for your degree, and a lot of the knowledge can be applied in more than just a narrow field. Source: I graduated as a graphic designer. Today I'm a software engineering lead and solution architect. I have no computer science degree, lol.
As a senior mechanical engineer, the line "do my friends hate me or do I need sleep" hits so unbelievably hard that I need to rethink my social life now

I looked this clip up bc rn college feels exactly like that quote. Running on 13 hours of sleep and still exhausted, wondering if all my friends hate me and are just waiting for me to realize
My favorite line in this is "I lived like a ******* Nina Turtle!" You immediately know what he means. He stayed inside. He ate pizza. He went out at night. Etc. And he could have milked all of those associations or extra jokes. He probbaly could have got a few extra laughs. But instead he loads it and just lobs it out there for the audience to do the work and moves on to the next thing. the premise is so rich, he doesn't NEED to wring it for all it's worth. That's how you know he's a master comedian. It's like an emperor throwing casting aside half eaten chicken bones. He's got so much, he doens't even need to bother with anything that's not immediately obvious.
Good point; this is actually a mark of a good writer. Which, that's the ironic part - John Mulaney DOES seem to have used his English major to start a successful career. Like, we can't know for sure how much he learned about storytelling from that, but... Especially if you're taking Creative Writing classes, that's kind of the focus.
Holy heroes in a half-shell, you composed that perfectly! His ability to hold out those potentially awkward extra few seconds and allow the audience to figure it out... Risky and perfectly timed. Brilliant.
Colleges really are “cokehead relatives” nowadays - how in the hell does it cost $40,000+ a year to educate a student but the school claims it can’t afford to pay the adjunct professors who now largely teach them more than $3,500 a course, many of who end up in poverty. WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING? Sure as hell isn’t to educating students
Yeah that's his shtick. Kind of rehashing the aesthetic of that entire period for idiots who are ignorant of it and think it's the most unique thing in the world. It's not.
Last time my college called me asking for a “gift” I really wasn’t in a good place financially. The person I was talking to said a small donation is fine, and I’m thinking “ok, $10-$20.” He meant $300! That’s almost two months worth of food budget. I declined and kept the money.
The thing is that University used to be affordable, then the idea is you get a good job and pay back the college for helping you get such a great paying job. But all of that has changed now
Fortunately laws are catching up. In my state we’’ve effectively made the first 2 years of college free by having the government completely pay for community college (as long as you go right after high school) and guaranteeing acceptance into a state university to anyone who has graduated from a state community college. And from what I’ve heard some states out west have even better laws like ours
Tai good. We can’t let these colleges get away with this shit anymore. I want my kids to have the option but I’m not paying half a million for a piece of paper. I’m better off just buying them a business.
In countries where tuition is free the idea is that society pays for your education and then you pay back by contributing to society. For example society needs doctors so we pay to educate them, we need teachers so we pay to educate them. Everyone wins
@@Tai-ey3lx and yet over the last 20 or so years, tuition has pretty much doubled for a 4 year degree. Cutting out 2 years will likely cause Universities to both increase their costs to students and try to limit class availability, forcing students to attend additional semesters in order to get their degrees. Universities are going to get their money from students.
Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. Getting alumni requests for money while I'm still paying my student loans was unbelievable. Then, getting more requests when paying for my kids tuition adds insult to injury.
L W Right before I graduated, my college called and asked me to give them money to go towards a “Senior class gift” to the college. I was like, “Uhh...I just gave you $40,000...why would I also give YOU a gift? Shouldn’t you give me a gift?” Who the hell gives them more money??
Every time I get some poor student from my college on the phone, asking for money, I'm always like "look next to my name. It says I was a journalism major. Do you honestly think I have any money to give you??"
What's $25 every 6 months? As a former telefundraiser for my university, I'm calling you out. JUST Give a little. YOU'LL feel better about yourself. After all you're investing in the future of your country
Zaza Brown Colleges make money hand over fist, they don’t deserve or need more money than their students have already paid them. I’d much rather give my money to people and organizations that actually need it as opposed to what equates to a enormous money laundering scheme. I’d rather give 25 dollars a month to an orphanage, or a shelter than 25 dollars every six months to a college. There is literally no reason for colleges to need donations. None. If they spent their money responsibly rather than building billion dollar sports arenas and locker rooms maybe they could charge less money in the first place.
@@zazabrown732 What's $25 every six months? I don't know, a weeks worth of food? Is everyone including you in your university levitating above the rest of us who aren't as well-off financially?
I remember my highschool AP English teacher put the whole video on during class my senior year. I laughed really hard during the English major part and forgot I was in English class for a second with my teacher who has an English Major Lmfaooo
Me: "120k that doesn't sound that bad...... oh wait it's dollars, let me just convert it to swedish currency and let's se.... oh holy hell 1,123,950 sek"
@Robertson Thirdly Is the tuition per class, like each class has a set value or is it 53,520 for all the classes and you have to pay all of it or you won't be able to enter any classes? I live in Mexico, and down here you can choosse how many classes you want to take that semester as long as you don't have any restrictions and each have a set value. So not all semesters will be worth the same and not all classes are worth the same amount. (if you fail a class 3 semesters in a row, donesn't have to be the same one, they lower the amount you are eligible to take until you go a semester without failing)
@@joyformercy9627 either you go to community college or you are getting money from another source I would be lucky to get that with in state tuition if I got the same amount in grants, and scholarships there would still be closer to 10k a semester for a 4 year school. As it is I have to find 5k a semester beyond the grants, scholarships, and maxed out federal loans.
If you're major isn't biomed, computer science, engineering, nursing, etc. it's good to ask if you can work to get to where you want to be. Get a job and work up that way. If not one of those above majors, it may not be as useful as society teaches us. Many Americans are paying back debt for a degree that they may not use or wasn't as useful as was first thought.
Limit the amount of loans you take. If you take out as many loans as the average American, think of how long it'll take to pay that back. Make sure your degree is something you can get a job in right after college.
English major...explains why he speaks in fonts and capitals. Edit: YOOOOOOOOO *I GOT 5.2k LIKES! Thanks, my lovely fans!* That's like, 144.8k less than the money he paid to college!
Because of this joke, I responded to my college's email with something along these lines, and they sent me a bunch of free stuff and spent 45 minutes on the phone with me asking what i didn't like about the college and what all they've been doing to improve on things. So basically I unintentionally Karen'd my way into getting free stuff by referencing a John Mulaney joke.
I like the comment and it goes from 1.4k to 1.5k. I don't know if I'm actually number 1,500 to like the comment of if its just rounding but it absolutely made my night.
Real talk: everything he's saying is true, and, more importantly, there are always more demanding needs for your alumni donations. My friends and I went to a really prestigious grad school. Cost $55,000 a year *before* housing and books and meals and shit. As soon as we graduated, the letters and phone calls started. "We depend on you to maintain our high standards...legacy...new students need access to materials...something, something." Our school got a $100 million donation at once. At once! I'm not making that up. So we thought...you know what? They're right. There are students everywhere who need access to better materials and higher standards. So we pooled some money together and donated it to a local grade school that really needed it, instead of our school with its billions of dollars in endowment. And I'm sure it did much more good there than on whatever ice sculpture or ribbon-cutting or other bullshit my school would have used it for. Short version: don't give money to your alma mater. They don't need it. The grade school around the corner needs it more. Give it to them. Many of those kids might not make it to college anyway. Give them the best chance you can.
Damn right! The schools with billion dollar endowments are making more per year off their portfolio investment returns than we'll ever approach. THAT's their business, now. Portfolio growth and 'networking' to make people feel like they're part of a special club and it'll open their wallets. Hey... just like a church...

The title makes its seem like Netflix owes him money
For all we know, they might
Ik I’d already heard this bit in his special or something and remembered the part where he was kicking the college screaming “WHERES MY MONEY YOU MUUTHEER FUCKEER” and imagined it was him but with Netflix somehow that makes it funnier
999 likes now, no more likes please
That's why it has 4.3 Million views, they put that intentional
Aditya why?
I thought Netflix cheated him out of 120k
I wasn't the only one then 😂😂😂
yeah its clickbait
Oh my Gosh, same 😂
If you haven't seen the special, you might think that.
Lol we all read the same thing bro
How am I just now finding this man?! I gotta look at his special ASAP!
@Jack Fortuna thanks!
New In Town is hilarious
@Jack Fortuna those are both good lmao
He's been great for a loooong time and the 2x he hosted SNL was hysterical better late than never!
You both wont regret doing so because he's hilarious but also you will regret it forever because his every word will occupy vital space in your brain
Hope you weren't planning on curing cancer XD
"What is college? Stop going till we figure it out." This needs to be more widely applied haha
“ Do my friends hate me or do I just need to go to sleep?” SO EFFIN TRUE LOLOLOLOL
Kickstands Up! Omg ikr?
The worst part is as an English major, that’s accurate
I feel like he's literally proof of what you can do with an English major degree though.
Right? I’m working on my PhD in English and I’ve never related to anything more IN MY LIFE
Maybe stop being an idiot, maybe not study something useless. Maybe smarten up. Maybe. But hey, you won't.

The universe has spoken. Sometimes the universe sounds like John Mullaney but the universe has spoken nonetheless.
if you arent joking about being an english major, please change your major. I was an accounting major and i still cant find any jobs, I'd suggest either going to trade school or a technology degree like computer science.
@@jingerstorm I still want to be an English major, don't get me wrong. I would love to enrich people's lives and have deep conversations with them about what writing means and even about everyday life. It's just funny to me how all this happened 😅 But I am very sorry
@@LK-Design I think English Education major is useful enough, but I can minor in maybe creative writing or something similar I'm sure
@@connortait9756 ayy, you do you! Don't let the universe bring you down. Just remember that there are many jobs out there beyond what you initially studied for, and a lot of those jobs will say that they need a degree that you don't have. Apply for them anyway. You learn more than just hard skills for your degree, and a lot of the knowledge can be applied in more than just a narrow field.
Source: I graduated as a graphic designer. Today I'm a software engineering lead and solution architect. I have no computer science degree, lol.
As a senior mechanical engineer, the line "do my friends hate me or do I need sleep" hits so unbelievably hard that I need to rethink my social life now
They said, uhh... how did they phrase it? What did they- “GIVE US SOME MONEY”

no words have more accurately described the college experience than *_"DO MY FRIENDS HATE ME OR DO I JUST NEED TO GO TO SLEEP?"_*
I looked this clip up bc rn college feels exactly like that quote. Running on 13 hours of sleep and still exhausted, wondering if all my friends hate me and are just waiting for me to realize
“I’m playing a drinking game. Take a shot every time he says $120,000. I need to go to the hospital.”
Null Void watch out for the horse
If you black out from it, you could make some money!
@@maidden Damn it I was going to make that joke
oof, hospitalized after 11 shots, rofl.
My favorite line in this is "I lived like a ******* Nina Turtle!" You immediately know what he means. He stayed inside. He ate pizza. He went out at night. Etc. And he could have milked all of those associations or extra jokes. He probbaly could have got a few extra laughs. But instead he loads it and just lobs it out there for the audience to do the work and moves on to the next thing. the premise is so rich, he doesn't NEED to wring it for all it's worth. That's how you know he's a master comedian. It's like an emperor throwing casting aside half eaten chicken bones. He's got so much, he doens't even need to bother with anything that's not immediately obvious.
Does ****** mean goddamn?
Ninja*
I feel he leaves it open if he's in trouble or wants to switch up the show a little
Good point; this is actually a mark of a good writer. Which, that's the ironic part - John Mulaney DOES seem to have used his English major to start a successful career. Like, we can't know for sure how much he learned about storytelling from that, but... Especially if you're taking Creative Writing classes, that's kind of the focus.
Holy heroes in a half-shell, you composed that perfectly! His ability to hold out those potentially awkward extra few seconds and allow the audience to figure it out... Risky and perfectly timed. Brilliant.
his english major definitely helps his comedy all jokes aside i love how eloquently he speaks
As an English major currently in college, I feel called out.
As a former English major who wised up late and switched to Accounting...I would say you should feel ATTACKED and please switch to business.

Colleges really are “cokehead relatives” nowadays - how in the hell does it cost $40,000+ a year to educate a student but the school claims it can’t afford to pay the adjunct professors who now largely teach them more than $3,500 a course, many of who end up in poverty. WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING? Sure as hell isn’t to educating students
Good question. That probably explains why I used to get letters from Regis College about donations to it. 😒
Cosmetic projects. As long as the buildings look nice, kids will think its worth it.
My guess is that a lot of it goes into the pockets of the high-up administration, in the form of salaries and "expenses".
That football stadium and associated sports facilities did not build themselves
I'm not a 4yr college graduate but I'd estimate 30-40% of university locations will close down. By 2030 or 2040.

Yeah that's his shtick. Kind of rehashing the aesthetic of that entire period for idiots who are ignorant of it and think it's the most unique thing in the world. It's not.
@@totaldeath7228 Ah, cool.
He did swear a couple of times though. That was a federal offense back in the 40's.
The funny part is a few minutes later, he does a whole bit in rhymed couplets. I'd say he has put his English major to very good use.

“I LIVED LIKE A GODDAMN NINJA TURTLE”- John Mulaney, 2019
How does this man manage to talk out loud in italics
It’s the English degree
He spent $120,000 to be able to talk like this
every word is capitalized as well
He Speaks Like This.
FRRRR he sounds like he was supposed to be born in the 50s 😭😭
If I had $1 for every time he said $120k I'd be able to afford college.
Hey a fellow shammy fan
4:34 "How dare you clap! How dare you clap for the worst financial decision I made in my life!"
"I didn't drink W A T E R the entire time"

@Dangerz Own what the hell, how do they stay non-profit!?
I wonder how he got cheated out of all that money?
"I went to college..."
Ooooohhh.
Sad, but true.
Wonder if he was cheated or his parents.
I come back to this just to hear that beautiful tone in his voice whenever he screams "YOU SPENT IT ALREADY??!"
"I lived like a GODDAMN NINJA TURTLE" fucking kills me

People clicking on this probably thought he was in a scam.
And they were right.
Well, I mean, depending on how you look at it...
mood
Yeah, it’s called *college*
The reveal did not disappoint.
College is the biggest legal scam in the world.
"Stop going until we figure out why!" Is actually fantastic advice.
College was his worst financial decision but the salt and pepper dinner was his best
"A friend and I plunked $7 into a jukebox when we were kids, and the story of what happened next will eventually pay for MY KID'S college"
Ladies and gentlemen… Salt… and what’s this?
*PEPPA* !
Last time my college called me asking for a “gift” I really wasn’t in a good place financially. The person I was talking to said a small donation is fine, and I’m thinking “ok, $10-$20.” He meant $300! That’s almost two months worth of food budget. I declined and kept the money.
I hope you never ever consider donating even $10 to your college. Colleges don't need donations!
The thing is that University used to be affordable, then the idea is you get a good job and pay back the college for helping you get such a great paying job. But all of that has changed now
Fortunately laws are catching up. In my state we’’ve effectively made the first 2 years of college free by having the government completely pay for community college (as long as you go right after high school) and guaranteeing acceptance into a state university to anyone who has graduated from a state community college. And from what I’ve heard some states out west have even better laws like ours
Tai good. We can’t let these colleges get away with this shit anymore. I want my kids to have the option but I’m not paying half a million for a piece of paper. I’m better off just buying them a business.
@@MsMrapplepie and/or a house (buying the kids a ..).
In countries where tuition is free the idea is that society pays for your education and then you pay back by contributing to society. For example society needs doctors so we pay to educate them, we need teachers so we pay to educate them. Everyone wins
@@Tai-ey3lx and yet over the last 20 or so years, tuition has pretty much doubled for a 4 year degree. Cutting out 2 years will likely cause Universities to both increase their costs to students and try to limit class availability, forcing students to attend additional semesters in order to get their degrees. Universities are going to get their money from students.
Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. Getting alumni requests for money while I'm still paying my student loans was unbelievable.
Then, getting more requests when paying for my kids tuition adds insult to injury.
L W Right before I graduated, my college called and asked me to give them money to go towards a “Senior class gift” to the college. I was like, “Uhh...I just gave you $40,000...why would I also give YOU a gift? Shouldn’t you give me a gift?” Who the hell gives them more money??
Every time I get some poor student from my college on the phone, asking for money, I'm always like "look next to my name. It says I was a journalism major. Do you honestly think I have any money to give you??"
What's $25 every 6 months? As a former telefundraiser for my university, I'm calling you out. JUST Give a little. YOU'LL feel better about yourself. After all you're investing in the future of your country
Zaza Brown Colleges make money hand over fist, they don’t deserve or need more money than their students have already paid them. I’d much rather give my money to people and organizations that actually need it as opposed to what equates to a enormous money laundering scheme. I’d rather give 25 dollars a month to an orphanage, or a shelter than 25 dollars every six months to a college. There is literally no reason for colleges to need donations. None. If they spent their money responsibly rather than building billion dollar sports arenas and locker rooms maybe they could charge less money in the first place.
@@zazabrown732
What's $25 every six months? I don't know, a weeks worth of food? Is everyone including you in your university levitating above the rest of us who aren't as well-off financially?
AN ENGLISH MAJOR.
Yes you heard him. AN ENGLISH MAJOR.
Don't clap at the worst financial decision of his life!
An e n g l i s h major
I remember my highschool AP English teacher put the whole video on during class my senior year. I laughed really hard during the English major part and forgot I was in English class for a second with my teacher who has an English Major Lmfaooo
Dosko: I have a BA in English, went to law school with it, and I did well. I could not think of anything else but teaching.
I can’t watch this bit anymore because the “Give me some money” is the sound of Ranboo’s donation and it’s ingrained in my head
Me: "120k that doesn't sound that bad...... oh wait it's dollars, let me just convert it to swedish currency and let's se.... oh holy hell 1,123,950 sek"
Robertson Thirdly didnt he already adjust for inflation in the bit? not that his figures would be exact anyway haha
makes me wonder where he went😅. I only pay 6k a semester. So my degree with be just shy of 50k.
@Robertson Thirdly Is the tuition per class, like each class has a set value or is it 53,520 for all the classes and you have to pay all of it or you won't be able to enter any classes?
I live in Mexico, and down here you can choosse how many classes you want to take that semester as long as you don't have any restrictions and each have a set value. So not all semesters will be worth the same and not all classes are worth the same amount. (if you fail a class 3 semesters in a row, donesn't have to be the same one, they lower the amount you are eligible to take until you go a semester without failing)
@@joyformercy9627 either you go to community college or you are getting money from another source I would be lucky to get that with in state tuition if I got the same amount in grants, and scholarships there would still be closer to 10k a semester for a 4 year school. As it is I have to find 5k a semester beyond the grants, scholarships, and maxed out federal loans.
@Robertson Thirdly Ok, but can you choose which classes to attend to? And would that lower the cost?

Be smart. BE SMART
Yes, be smart about spending, but know that he's that funny because he was a college English major!
If you're major isn't biomed, computer science, engineering, nursing, etc. it's good to ask if you can work to get to where you want to be. Get a job and work up that way. If not one of those above majors, it may not be as useful as society teaches us.
Many Americans are paying back debt for a degree that they may not use or wasn't as useful as was first thought.
Limit the amount of loans you take.
If you take out as many loans as the average American, think of how long it'll take to pay that back.
Make sure your degree is something you can get a job in right after college.
"I paid somebody $120K for somebody to tell me to go read Jane Austen and then I didn't." That punchline right there is amazing 🤣
"Do my friends hate me, or do I just need to go to sleep?"
An actual thought right there.
They don’t it’s just nonsense. You’re great.

Because of this joke, I responded to my college's email with something along these lines, and they sent me a bunch of free stuff and spent 45 minutes on the phone with me asking what i didn't like about the college and what all they've been doing to improve on things. So basically I unintentionally Karen'd my way into getting free stuff by referencing a John Mulaney joke.
I’d call that a success
Might try this as my college as me for donations WHILE I STILL OWE THEM.

Been there.... every Friday
I love that he really makes sure we know how much he gave his college
Real talk: everything he's saying is true, and, more importantly, there are always more demanding needs for your alumni donations.
My friends and I went to a really prestigious grad school. Cost $55,000 a year *before* housing and books and meals and shit. As soon as we graduated, the letters and phone calls started. "We depend on you to maintain our high standards...legacy...new students need access to materials...something, something." Our school got a $100 million donation at once. At once! I'm not making that up. So we thought...you know what? They're right. There are students everywhere who need access to better materials and higher standards. So we pooled some money together and donated it to a local grade school that really needed it, instead of our school with its billions of dollars in endowment. And I'm sure it did much more good there than on whatever ice sculpture or ribbon-cutting or other bullshit my school would have used it for.
Short version: don't give money to your alma mater. They don't need it. The grade school around the corner needs it more. Give it to them. Many of those kids might not make it to college anyway. Give them the best chance you can.
wow I love this idea 💡
thank you so much!
Damn right! The schools with billion dollar endowments are making more per year off their portfolio investment returns than we'll ever approach. THAT's their business, now. Portfolio growth and 'networking' to make people feel like they're part of a special club and it'll open their wallets. Hey... just like a church...
