There is ONE way I know of to express romantic interest when you're driving and your target of enamoration isn't. You've got to crash. You have to become transfixed in wonderment, and then plow right into a tree or wall. And then when they look in shock, you manage a shy wave before you pass out at the wheel. Bonus points if you can get the airbag to deploy in your face while you wave.
i once knew a girl who legitimately rode her bike into a tree trying to get my attention, and now you have me wondering if that wasn't premeditated on her end...
My sister and I were walking her dog one day (he is a huge ass fully grown white lab) when this girl whos driving past stops, rolls down her window, and says "that's a pretty puppy!!!!!" in such a happy voice and i still think about that to this day
Well, see, there they were talking about the dog, so it's not targeted. She's not threatened. There is a common neutral ground. Pretty Puppy. Now if someone drove up to your sister and said, "Those are pretty puppies!" I think that's a different kettle of fish.
i know right? when griff said "we used to do that" i was worried they were going to admit to something Terrible, but really it's just like, "we yelled random compliments to people when we drove past the park"
A man laughs as he sips a glass of unknown red liquid from a glass. His face is hidden by the shadows covering the room as he watches the screen with glee. "I have you now Mcelroy boys. Ducktales, Ducktales indeed!"
don't pick someone up when they're somewhere they have to be, is the moral of this story: go to bars, get tinder, etc, maybe go to college even, but like.. nah. servers, students, workers of any type on the job: don't. someone just walking down the street: don't. I'm sure all the McElroy fans know this already tbh I'm just venting edit; I actually hadn't listened to the whole video when I typed this and they basically said the exact thing. god damn I love my mcelroys
i wouldnt say theres NEVER a point where getting yelled at from a speeding car is a good thing. one time when i was 8 i was in my front yard dressed like darth vader and some guy yelled darth vader out his car window. i felt like the coolest kid on the block because the guy recognized my costume, as if the giant helmet didnt give it away
A guy once circled around a block twice just to pull over on the side of the road to yell out that he could treat me better than my significantly older dad who was also on the walk with me, we then yelled at him simultaneously and cussed him out
The duck tales thing is actually relatable. If my parents couldn't find me, they would shot "Red Robin" and they've basically trained my brothers and I to respond with "Yum!". They just follow the sound of our voices, or we would, to find them again.
Can't we all take a moment to enjoy the moment when Travis and Justin utters - unintentionally in unison while in the voice of a Venezuelan creepster - _"Ducktales!"_
@@lepistanuda Erm, it was the "unmarked van" in relation to strangers picking you up after school that made me call them "creepster", not the Venezuelan part...
Bimpy the Wimpy Shrimpy I think it was weird on j ustin and travis to do that accent in the first place, and weird of you to not notice that and create a “creepster” character of it. People say problematic stuff sometimes and it’s fine but it’s not good form to get defensive abt it tbh 🤷♀️
@@lepistanuda hmm, fair enough point. I still think "racist" is taking it a bit too far, to its logical extreme, given that it's a fairly mild and understandable bit of prejudice
makes me think about being in elementary school and growing up afab, there were these monkey bars sort of by the blacktop but closer to the fence that was next to a relatively main road, and me and my now bf who is also afab would sit on top of them and just be ten year olds and theres this vivid memory of being at boys and girls club and sitting up there w him and then being very vulgarly cat called by grown ass men who drove past AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. not only is it nasty to do that in general but TO TWO OBVIOUS CHILDREN ON THE PLAYGROUND. urgh,, we really need to do better as a culture
And with stuff like the bank, the women are forced to be polite for their job so when you hit on them it makes it really hard for them to turn you down without risk that they’ll be punished for it if you went to their boss and complained they were rude.
The title made me excited but Dale is only clickbait. The only thing this reminded me of was that when my dad was a kid he was picked up by a guy who said he knew his mum, and the guy genuinely did drive my dad to his house. However when he told his mum (my nan) about it, she had no idea who the guy was.
Oh my god, I'm glad people like the mbmbam brothers exist. "This guy" is all over every campus everywhere, and always has been, but maybe - just maybe - won't ALWAYS BE. Boys trying so, so hard to seem like men everywhere: please always feel schooled by actual men like these when you encounter them. Can't manage? Get yourself a Realdoll and let women live their lives.
@Carey Wolhuter I really disagree. Obviously it's dumb to hit on people from your car, we're all in agreement. But saying a young man is a lost cause and should just give up because he wasn't taught the right, respectful ways to talk to women is just not helpful.
Sometimes I *really* want to compliment a stranger bc, you know, they just have really cool hair or something. I always wait till I'm walking past them or we're both about to leave the train carriage or whatever, then say 'excuse me, but I had to say that hairstyle is awesome!' and then zoom off before it can be awkward..
The problem with that though is my brain has some SERIOUS input lag so one time I was walking down the street with my Van Gogh umbrella talking to my dad on the phone, and a nice lady complimented me on my umbrella, but then I just kept walking until I got to my turnoff and my brain went *dial-up modem noises* and realized what happened so then I had to YELL DOWN THE STREET to thank this poor woman for her compliment.
guys need to realise that women that every women- ask any woman you know mother sister friend "I want to get perspective, have you ever felt unsafe or uncomfortable around a man" you will get a yes. Either getting eyed up and down when you're 8 or 12 or any age, or being stalked, or being gropped, or being cat called out a window which is frightening bc you're being shouted at, or just a list of things that make everything else worse if women didnt have to go through any of that? cat calling would simply be annoying, something to eye roll. But theres 12 year olds I've even heard like 9 year olds being cat called sexually at such a young age women are treated like shit BUT even if it was reversed and women were doing this to men which occasionally they do, with groping or cat calling for irony, or hurting bc "a man can take it"- that's not okay too None of it's okay People need to realise that unless the person is able to have a way out, and it's not at work or they are busy doing something- DONT DO IT I'm sorry if you think that person is hot but you're going off looks and know nothing about them I feel the MOST you can do is if someone is at work you can give them a little piece of paper with your number and tell them no pressure Something in passing, something they can ignore, that they dont have to react to, and on your way out so that they dont have to be face to face with a situation that they might feel uncomfortable in Listen to these good Boys!
@@calebduarte5255 unfortunately there are some people that don't believe that what the above comment said is true, so "no shit" or not, it's still necessary to say
@@zoinks-scoob While you’re definitely right, I doubt someone with enough ignorance to disagree with the above statement will suddenly read these facts here and accept all of it. I just don’t really see the point.
God, having shit yelled at you while a metal dragon rides off is fucking spooky man because there's also a 90% chance that no one understood what you fucking said and now there's someone on earth who thinks you're gonna come back later and eat their internal organs when all you said was hey
The crazy thing I find about listening to these random goofs is I remember exactly where I was when I listened to the whole episode. It was October 2018, I was nineteen failing all my pre req gen ed classes because I was depressed and traumatized as hell. I was walking adjacent to the UF Law school, wishing I was as smart as my law school student brother, getting rained on, feeling miserable as hell. I just wanted to get home to my dog.
Being depressed and getting rained on is one of my most frequent memories from being a grad student at UF, right after being depressed and feeling like I was going to die of heat stroke.
my sister and i had a stranger password!! :O and deadass if someone came up to me as an adult in 2020 and was like "hey Jesse, im your dad's friend and you need to come with me, the password is ducktales" i would Absolutely go (obviously ours wasn't ducktales, but i'm too paranoid to say what it was now djdkjdkd)
My folks made it a point to have me and brother meet and know every neighbor or relative that would likely pick us up so I never got the password talk :/
I love when these videos are titled something like 'Lunar Funtime' or 'The Ballad of Jubilation Pissteeth: a storied history of Bronchitis, Rhode Island' and they start with "poopfeast420 asks 'what are your thoughts on appropriate ages for a first piercing?" And end with "I would get in an unmarked van in Venezuela if the driver said 'Ducktales'" or "so that's why I'm a firm believer in the AntiVax movement and my closet is nothing but JNCOs and Big Johnson shirts"
okay the SECOND i was old enough to sit in the front seat and roll down my own window, i would be HOLLERING at people (stuff like “you have cool boots!” “i love your hair!”, or ANYBODY who has a dog gets a “I LOVE YOUR DOG!!” because !!! dogs.)
I don't think it really matters what you're saying if you are a stranger yelling at someone when you are driving by, even if it were like, "Nice hat!", I'd be over here like who the hell are you and why are you bothering me?
oh my god i realized this SO belated but. at the beginning the guy said he was 31 years old. fucking GROSS a 30 year old lusting after girls who are like 23 at most GOD what a creep
If you see someone that looks nice totally go up and talk to them, but if they're busy just let them go. Don't worry about the freaks in the comments saying it's catcalling or whatever. Be social, don't let them scare you into not approaching people you want to meet.
Shudder Fly A stranger rolling up to you in their car while you’re just minding your business walking down the street in order to hit you with a cheesy pick up line may not be “cat-calling” but it’s still pretty damn creepy.

“Señor, señor; Ducktales.” well I’m going to be laughing over this all day now
My sister and I were walking her dog one day (he is a huge ass fully grown white lab) when this girl whos driving past stops, rolls down her window, and says "that's a pretty puppy!!!!!" in such a happy voice and i still think about that to this day
Ok, so there is ONE socially acceptable reason to roll up in your car next to a stranger
Well, see, there they were talking about the dog, so it's not targeted. She's not threatened. There is a common neutral ground. Pretty Puppy.
Now if someone drove up to your sister and said, "Those are pretty puppies!" I think that's a different kettle of fish.
i love these boys so much
q: is there a socially acceptable way to catcall?
all 3 of the boys simultaneously: NO GOD DONT
Quinn O'Grady. Even their version of catcalling is wholesome
i know right? when griff said "we used to do that" i was worried they were going to admit to something Terrible, but really it's just like, "we yelled random compliments to people when we drove past the park"
I can't believe somebody would earnestly ask this question.
I can't imagine the combination of confidence and ignorance it must take to live that way.
A man laughs as he sips a glass of unknown red liquid from a glass. His face is hidden by the shadows covering the room as he watches the screen with glee. "I have you now Mcelroy boys. Ducktales, Ducktales indeed!"
"CAN'T THEY JUST LEARN" is something I'm definitely going to be using
“Get in the car, coward!” will never not make me belly laugh

Yep! As Justin himself said: If they can't turn on heel and sprint away from you, you can't ask them out!
My mom had a pickup password, and I promised myself if I ever time traveled I would tell myself the password so I would know to trust myself.
"Gruff McGruff the Crime Wolf" and everything after is the funniest fucking thing ive ever heard
