If Marie Kondo says you should only keep things that bring you joy, I’m gonna throw my laptop out of the window cause these uni assignments and my bachelor thesis give me an existential crisis
literally though, they make me feel better about myself. just cause i read a lot and it’s nice to see someone successful who reads a lot so i don’t feel like i’m being lazy
I'm glad you've talked about this mugging tactic! I feel like people need to know! I got my phone stolen like that. I had no idea until the guy had left, it was so awful 😣
Every story like this makes me so impressed with European thieves. In America, the availability of guns really hampers robbers’ creativity. We don’t have anything like this here. Not the fake baby/fake injury trick they use in Paris, nothing! This is the number one thing I tell American friends when they are planning to travel to Europe, as we would just never expect it
finally someone that appreciates the king that is hozier and the absolute bop that is jackie and wilson wooooo. also big mood about the existential crisis, hope you’re doing well my man
That way of mugging happens a lot in London. I was in a pub and a girl on the table next to me got her phone mugged, she only realised after the lady with the paper had been told to leave by the staff, and lost her phone. Never leave your phone (or wallet!) on the table guys!
idk why i feel so bad when jack has to clarify there’s worse things going on in the world when he’s jokingly complains, like no this is your safe place it’s okay!❤️
Thank you for filling the gap on the pinboard. It has filled the gap in my heart. I am a minimalist, and sometimes I wish I had more clutter, but I can't do it to myself.
The reason you climb is why I do yoga or meditate. Love all the songs you mentioned in this video. They often label clothes incorrectly, so annoying! Minimalism and me is like minimalism and you Jack, I really get it. I have a fear of rocking boats so... but that canal boat bookshop looks so awesome! I usually order books online but I do love browsing bookshops. LOVE the sunset. Love the moon. Inamo is AWESOME! Love how right after you said "a moment of silence for our fallen troops" ads came on.
OH MY DAYS JACK THAT WOMAN YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT I HAD THE SAME EXACT EXPERIENCE in McDonald's outside intu Watford or whatever it's called but it was instead we had change on the table and she sort of hovered around the table bc it was busy. We realised what she was doing so we confronted her AND SHE RAN OUT Now I doubt it was the same lady but wow.
That mug trick is definitely a thing About 7 years ago, when I was in Porto, Portugal a man did the same thing at a restaurant trying to steal the phone
Hey, Jack, I’ve been enjoying your content lately (especially when you talk about books, because you give me the boost I need to read more), just wanted to add here, because a lot of people get confused - the meaning of being a minimalist isn’t to not have a lot of stuff, but to have material possessions that spark joy in you. This is why minimalism is different for everyone and why we have the extremes with people who own less than 100 items and people who have houses full of things. Just wanted to clarify this for you. It’s all in the mindset. Have a great day and can’t wait for you to cover more book-related topics!
The mugging thing happened to me too! I was at shake shack in Covent Garden with my friend and one lady started eating our fries (trying to distract us) and another had a piece of paper over my phone and was pulling it backwards, luckily I realised before she took my phone
I did a course on graffiti at uni actually! Most people's words are something personal to them, and there's meanings to a lot of the symbolism around graffiti which I recommend looking up if you have the time! I also recommend sitting and working out your tag, it's quite fun to try out different graffiti styles just on a piece of paper when you're bored!
YES I only got into Hamilton when they released it in July on Disney Plus and let me tell you I have never been so obsessed. I watch it almost once a week and I continuously sing the songs to the point where my younger brother has started singing them with me
Jack: I'm on a foot fetish website Me, trying to process what he said: why are you visiting a foot fetish website Me, trying again: why are you posting feet pics
It’s cool that Jack thought of his graffiti word! I had that as a middle school art assignment and I chose to graffiti (on paper) the word “sunshine” :)
I don’t know if anybody has mentioned this before but u really are what irl Stiles would be like. Your personality and all absolutely remind me of him :)
My phone was taken from my hands just off of Oxford St as I was checking Google maps. I never heard of that happening before but apparently phone thefts are so prevalent in London!! I learned about the paper trick too. I'm soooo protective of my phone (and other belongings) now and rarely ever take out my phone while walking in central. Glad you caught her in the act and got your phone back!
Every time I'm watching your videos you are the main character for me, I don't know if it helps but there it is (also, I'm new, that's why I'm commenting in old videos)
If I am ever recommending your channel to someone I will say that they should watch this video, it was so entertaining! I was laughing so hard at times. Keep it up!
Haven't ever seen your videos before but now I understand that I have no chance to leave this channel. You are so cheerful and it's a great pleasure to listen to you. Also, many of your viewers liked your T-shirt and I liked your eyes as they are very beautiful, it's strange but true ✌️😊
When you get to know about two different youtubers in the last month, and you like the content of both, and then they are together in a vlog. Crazy world.😁😉
damn wtf the exact same thing happened with my friend and her phone and it got nicked, i think its a super common tactic in london especially unfortunately :/ good thing you reacted so fast!
fine line!!!!! I'm a very big harry styles stan and when he said about him I was like "OMG!!!! did he just say fine line!!!" this made my day and mgbu!!!
The exact same “mugging” happened to me and my friend in a park! Although we didn’t understand what was happening and was only until we left we realised he took my friends phone! I will not fall for it again
I almost got mugged exactly like this too in Mile End!! I was sat in a cafe and the people sitting behind me noticed what was going on and made this guy go away, I was completely oblivious he was trying to steal my phone because I was busy on my laptop, so grateful they noticed 🥺 now I’m so careful with my phone and strangers nearby
yessss i started climbing back in 2019 and i was talking about it with my therapist and they were like "please keep doing it" so here i am still doing it
be careful about the phone thing guys! it’s popular in a lot of uk cities and most common is with a map to ask for directions. I know a lot of people who actually had their phones nicked with it! actually loving these main character vibes tho 💛
There’s a subreddit called r/GraffitiTagging, I follow a lot of art subs so it came up 😂 I’ve learned quite a lot from it, like how much effort goes into designing different designs even for one word. It’s actually amazing how much talent graffiti artists have
Jack - the mugging story! Something very similar happened to me INSIDE London Cocktail Club in Shaftesbury Avenue. Thankfully security came over to get her out before losing anything valuable.
the mugging story is giving me flashbacks because last summer this EXACT thing happened to my friend at a pub but we did not realise her phone was gone until the thief had left 😭
Reminds me of one time in the Paris subway, waiting at station ticket control, feel hand in pocket, not my hand, turns around, sees my phone corner (rather distinctive color) peak out under someone else holding a map, point out that it's mine in horrid french, try to unlock to prove that it's mine, fingerprint recognition is gorgeous, I get phone back, turn back, by the time I've vaguely told the group I was with about what happened the person with the map was gone
About the putting papers and maps on people's phones and wallets - It's very common! I used to work in a cafe around Fitzrovia, and it happened a lot. I always try to warn everyone about this!

Does anybody else find Jack’s videos as a really good way to relax or just me?
No, me too! ❤️
literally though, they make me feel better about myself. just cause i read a lot and it’s nice to see someone successful who reads a lot so i don’t feel like i’m being lazy
Me too!❤️
They're really lovely. I have at least ten videos of his that I keep going back to.
I love that jack’s uploading so much now because nobody else is uploading and I don’t know why

My graffiti word would probably be either ‘nope’ or ‘sigh’ which seem to be my most common expressions.
in the city where i live there are little grafittis distributed randomly that say "place to sigh" and i laugh everytime i see it

Absolutely!

Same. 😭

or 'maximumist' ???
Or talk about his degree

I once cried on a rush hour tube listening to Fine Line by Harry Styles can confirm it’s main character energy
how you squirted the sauce onto that pizza was actually criminal
This comment killed me. 😂😂
Actually, minimalism means only possessing things that are either useful or bringing you joy. You could be a minimalist with a ton of stuff.
Yeah I’ve seen posts of people extremely restricting themselves with what they owe... when the point is about shopping consciously
That's a lot of joy
@@s0ggywaffles338 I agree with you
That's such a controversial comment
"i just think that everything sparks joy so i wanna keep everything"

would kill to be even a side character in Jack's story

Now I doubt it was the same lady but wow.
Ikr! I’ve been there, there’s tons of pickpockets around. Sad, but reality so we need to be aware of it.
I love how Jack’s video titles are so dramatic lately, can’t wait to watch! :)
Same. 😂
"I'm not a minimalist I'm a maxamalist" mood
😂
Is there a protagonist playlist on your Spotify jack?
"moment of silence for summer 2020" ....
"download a free audiobook with your 30 day trial"
me: AUDIBLE YOU UNFEELING BUFFOON
Yes to Lourde main character music! Strutting with purpose, everyone watching you (no-one), everything easy (tapping your card on reader) pahaha
I never see vlog where pepole only talk and do nothong but jack has nailed it i love him talking kepp doing it bro much love...
When you lived in Manchester and Uni staff just tell you about the paper over the phone trick😂
Jack is my comfort person. His videos are a constant source of serotonin 🥺❤️
Hey Jack, you should sew the waist of the trousers so they fit you better! x
That mug trick is definitely a thing
About 7 years ago, when I was in Porto, Portugal a man did the same thing at a restaurant trying to steal the phone

I can just see it, the motor on the boat humming, golden evening sunshine and Cherry by Harry Styles. Boom!
also it’s called a graffiti ‘tag’ which marks your territory usually when it comes to graffiti (but also can just be signature)
all you r vlogs are so aesthetic and funny and genuinely enjoyable
MY FAVOURITE 2 RUclipsRS together!
and Jack
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA
honestly same
loving your vlogs atm! i feel like my word would be 'perspective' but thats also very long so maybe like 'magic' would be cool
Ooooohhh perspective isn’t a fantastic choice
Isn’t?
The mugging thing happened to me too! I was at shake shack in Covent Garden with my friend and one lady started eating our fries (trying to distract us) and another had a piece of paper over my phone and was pulling it backwards, luckily I realised before she took my phone

Jack watching all the Hamilton performances on RUclips sums up my life honestly
YES I only got into Hamilton when they released it in July on Disney Plus and let me tell you I have never been so obsessed. I watch it almost once a week and I continuously sing the songs to the point where my younger brother has started singing them with me
Can we talk about the fact that Jack knows how to make me laugh in every video, the humour 👌🏻
Natalia Foster Literally! His humour is on point 😂
Same though. 😭😭
12:07 - Same, Jack! I always seems to catch trends or get into something just as it’s on the way out.
one of the few vlogs that are actually interesting and don't make me want to skip. Idk but I love how he explains situations
my heart kind of somersaults when Jack says "bye bye"
*Oh my god* look at the moon
_not even a second later_
.
*Oh my god* I almost got mugged !
😂😂
Don't worry Jack, there are still many people obsessed with Hamilton...
loved this vlog jack! all ur vlogs feel like a catch-up between friends lmaoo :)

we need a playlist video because the music taste is EXQUISITE
Title made me LOL. Hope you're ok.
You’re definitely main character
