Normally, I prefer not seeing their faces; the dead silence adds to the bit. But Smart Girls is one of those where I wanted to see Dan's face the whole time
Ok, hear me out. On the last video I thought I had seen them play it before. On this one I swear it is something I've already seen. Have the second game before?
I could imagine Arin's mischievous face the whole time he was playing Smart Girls and Dan's extremely grumpy face and it's the closest thing to the Christmas spirit I've ever felt 🎅🤶😍
no, we cant imagine that, dan being grumpy and arin being happy? butt hat would mean not so grump has become grump and grump has become not so grump, and im pretty sure thats one of the signs of the apocalypse
It's because they're NOT reading the plot. They're acting it out, skimming over the main details, and talking to each other. They aren't comprehending anything. It's very frustrating when the audience understands the games THEY'RE playing better than they do.
I think the horrid lining of the connect the dots magically lining perfectly when Arin actually connects them is a perfect analogy of this year’s Jingle Grumps
Marcos Valle - Estrelar (mentioned around 22:35) this song is absolutely brilliant. What a groove! Full Brazilian 80's funky vibes! Thanks for sharing!
They have played this for seven full minutes of just fucking around. I can safely say that I am UTTERLY ENRAPTURED by these two grown men playing this "game". Truly a Christmas miracle.
Seeing them play Smart Girl's Winter Wonderland caught me so off guard... I played Smart Boy's Game Room as a kid, and honestly, this is pretty much what my exact experience with it was like 😆
5:11 Ah yes, my favourite part of the Santa Claus mythos: When the sky turns a bloody crimson, Old Chris Kringle will parkour the rooftops with his burlap sack like a thief in the night.
I would love to watch more of Arin playing DS games marketed towards girls. I think he'd absolutely love a certain DS game called Style Savvy. You get to dress up cute girls and run a boutique and compete in fashion contests! Plus I can imagine Arin dressing the characters up in ridiculous outfits.
At 10:48 when Arin asked Dan where the last present was, just from the silence alone i could feel that annoyed slow head turn Dan had to have given to Arin.
I can't believe they missed the chance to make it so Santa's suit is skin colored and the fur lining is black so he looks like a bear wearing a leather slingkini.
I swear, when Arin picks games like these in rapid succession it's jsut to see how far he can push Dan's sanity towards the edge before he breaks XD Also, the "Snowman" coloring book is technically 95% done already...
I think these kind of episodes are my favorite, where Arin chooses a game very CLEARLY intended for very young children, and Dan just suffers through it all while Arin seems to have the time of his life.
You were right in the second guess, Dan! The song's name is in Portuguese, by the singer Marcos Valle. It's called "Estrelar", as mentioned, and it means "To Star", as in, "to shine/to shine at something", "to be the star of an event", etc.
I like it when they play games like the last one with the Santa Claus, since the game is so basic they're able to give better commentary and we can still see arin blasting trough the game.
22:32 "Estrelar" means "to (be a) star" in Portuguese, and it's a workout song. You can find a translation by looking up "Estrelar (English translation) - Marcos Valle", but here's the refrain: Come, come shine, become another star over the sun A star shining brighter than the sun Show yourself more, be a God in the skies and me on Earth Charm everything, make it all made out of pure air
The first half of the episode has the exact same energy of a married couple, thats only staying together for the kids, being super passive agressive on christmas dinner.
10:02 Jesus Dan! Way to rain on our parade and destroy our Christmas Merriment! This game was my childhoood, and you sat there and mocked it without even CONSIDERING the magical wonder that is Smart Girl's Winter Wonderland!
I'd like to point out that in the smart girls game, Arin randomly paints Santa's bag green and then in Santa saves the earth, the bag is green too. Anyways, I don't have many friends.
I used to babysit, and let me tell you, this is the kind of stuff I had to put up with. And of course you have to pretend to be interested, and praise them for doing simple tasks, and honestly you start out as Arin, and by the time the day is over you're Dan.
the dread in Danny's voice whilst trash talking Arin as he is playing the smart girl winter wonderland is just so hecking relatable and God it's so hilarious
You guys should play Ice n’ Fire, it’s a (sort of) Christmas-y, snowy puzzle game where you play as a little ice wizard trying to rescue his homeland from evil fire monsters. I think Danny would really love it, and it would be a perfect game for Jingle Grumps :)
there needs to be more santa claus saves the earth, 32:37 when they're talking and santas just fucking jammin. this portly old dude hittin summersaults like they're nothing
Dude, I'm coming back and watching Jingle Grump videos I missed and gotta say, the Grumps are literally the only people I'll tolerate watching a playthrough on games like this! They make everything joyful

Finally, a game made for Arin, a smart girl learning about Christmas.
How are there no comments on this
But Arin's not smart
@@TheRuneTail a girl can dream, can't she?
@@TheRuneTail well at least she's pretty
@@Yewtewba define "pretty"
Dan and literally everyone else: This isn’t a game, Arin.
Arin: I’m winning!
Normally, I prefer not seeing their faces; the dead silence adds to the bit. But Smart Girls is one of those where I wanted to see Dan's face the whole time
my fave bit is
*intro*
arin: hi everyone!
dan: .. wait are we starting?
Are we rolling?
"bit"
Never gets old
Ok, hear me out. On the last video I thought I had seen them play it before. On this one I swear it is something I've already seen. Have the second game before?
The Grumps could probably start a very successful shorts channel with just awkward intros and Arin saying “…anyways.”
These Christmas episodes really have devolved into Arin torturing Dan for as long as possible with baby games before finding an actual christmas game.
And it gives me more christmas spirit and joy than anything else
As is tradition
Rated E! For Embiciles!
Yup... sure is fun watching this over and over while Arin gets pissed that we don't find this funny.
So..... we got what we wanted for Christmas?
I could imagine Arin's mischievous face the whole time he was playing Smart Girls and Dan's extremely grumpy face and it's the closest thing to the Christmas spirit I've ever felt 🎅🤶😍
Especially at ~10:47 when he asked Dan where the last present was.
no, we cant imagine that, dan being grumpy and arin being happy? butt hat would mean
not so grump has become grump and grump has become not so grump, and im pretty sure thats one of the signs of the apocalypse
Dan: 😒
Arin: 😏
Gotta love Arin’s never ending quest to find non Christmas games to play.
Or, in this case, Christmas non-games.
@@nathanielpoppycock9827 was gunna say
Arin's Quest For Non Christmas Games Continues And We Are Living For It
I don't know what you're talking about, these games are Christmas classics in my house!
more like christmas non-games
The grumps' ability to literally read the plot out loud and then IMMEDIATELY have no idea what's happening will always amaze me.
It's because they're NOT reading the plot. They're acting it out, skimming over the main details, and talking to each other. They aren't comprehending anything. It's very frustrating when the audience understands the games THEY'RE playing better than they do.
I think the horrid lining of the connect the dots magically lining perfectly when Arin actually connects them is a perfect analogy of this year’s Jingle Grumps
Any episode that brings out Arin's 11-year-old girl side is a good episode
7 year old, max
IDK that game was more 7 year old girl...
@@Nowolf I'm fairly certain a 7 year old would find that game boring. 5 year old, max! lol
Really hoping they continue the jingglegrumps tradition of playing visual novels where nothing happens
"Just...SOMETHING HAPPEN!!! AH'M GOIN' INSANE!!!"
@@spiwolf6998 as opposed to the Thomas ones, which probably exist based on the fanfiction I've unfortunately seen
I miss jingle grumps horror games lmao

"WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO, CHECK ALL THESE GAMES BEFORE I PLAY THEM?" - Arin Hanson, 2021
Literally read this as he said it… was taken aback
Marcos Valle - Estrelar (mentioned around 22:35) this song is absolutely brilliant. What a groove! Full Brazilian 80's funky vibes!
Thanks for sharing!
He is right it’s so 80s and amazing
Meu Deus que momento maravilhoso!
I love how scuffed every single game on jingle grumps is.
Same. It reminds me of the Ghoul Grumps year where they played those horrible horror games.
There really arent any more good christmas games left on planet earth
@@skeetsmcgrew3282 Except for the seek and finds of course
@@awebtoonreader4979 They are entertaining to watch these guys play. Actually playing them is like getting novocain shots
"JUST. SOMETHING. HAPPEN!!!"
Arin. Just have your lil girls already so you can destroy them at these games. They must learn you're the video game boy.
And he’s the one who wins
Why destroy them if you can raise them as the video game girls
@@TheMCzorro .....Chiaki is his daughter?
@@FlaschenJoe11 Could be
And then he winds up having all boys
The game: reading a well known story
Arin: “Is this really the lyrics?”
Cale: Snarky Jerkface
Cody: "Shut up."
They have played this for seven full minutes of just fucking around. I can safely say that I am UTTERLY ENRAPTURED by these two grown men playing this "game". Truly a Christmas miracle.
Wow, I checked the time stamp right after I read this, and it was 7:27
Arin: "What do you want from me?!"
Me, content seeing him happy: "This, Arin. I want this."
I like how in Smart Girls Arin colors Santa's sack green, and then in the other game its green as well.
"This is not a game. We are the game grumps" might be my favorite quote of all time
Seeing them play Smart Girl's Winter Wonderland caught me so off guard... I played Smart Boy's Game Room as a kid, and honestly, this is pretty much what my exact experience with it was like 😆
Danny: "This is _GAME_ Grumps."
Me: "No, today you are _Jingle_ Grumps."
The way that our boys play these super sketch games that you could find on a flash game website for kids with SUCH enthusiasm makes me smile
Only one boy, the other wished he was dead or killing the other boy
@@whitefang5973 thats a different kind of enthusiasm lmao
3:39 "I'm not entirely sure this is a game, Arin"
*naughty or nice its the jingle grumps*
The standout Jingle Grumps moment for me is still the grandma choking on chimney smoke.
Link?
It was christmas adventure: candy storm. Not sure which ep tho
I do hope they remembered to play one of those Christmas-themed Hidden Object/Point and Click adventure games this year. Those are always my favorite.
I'm holding out hope that we get at least one nihilistic anime santa girl/child fever dream-type visual novel this jingle grumps
we already got 'anime' jigsaw puzzles, so hopefully.
5:11 Ah yes, my favourite part of the Santa Claus mythos: When the sky turns a bloody crimson, Old Chris Kringle will parkour the rooftops with his burlap sack like a thief in the night.
Hot Take: That Smart Girls game as actually better than the one they played after
Fully agree! The dress up part really was the absolute best
Ah jingle grumps
Scary games, bad games or weird games. Always reflecting the christmas spirit
33 minutes and change of Arin gaslighting Dan. Happy Christler!
I would love to watch more of Arin playing DS games marketed towards girls. I think he'd absolutely love a certain DS game called Style Savvy. You get to dress up cute girls and run a boutique and compete in fashion contests! Plus I can imagine Arin dressing the characters up in ridiculous outfits.
Yes!!!
At 10:48 when Arin asked Dan where the last present was, just from the silence alone i could feel that annoyed slow head turn Dan had to have given to Arin.
I can't believe they missed the chance to make it so Santa's suit is skin colored and the fur lining is black so he looks like a bear wearing a leather slingkini.
Something about the fairy girl's face and eyes reminds me a lot of Arin's drawing of himself for his old Sequelitis animations.
Most of this episode it sounds like Dan is talking in his sleep .. 💤 , and I loved every bit it.
I swear, when Arin picks games like these in rapid succession it's jsut to see how far he can push Dan's sanity towards the edge before he breaks XD
Also, the "Snowman" coloring book is technically 95% done already...
Has anyone noticed that in All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth, the end of the chorus sounds like "aaaaaaand we're the Game Grumps!"? 5:00
Dan and arin should literally just play dress up games for a whole episode
Totally lovin' Arins relentless enthusiasm about everything 😂
EXCEPT Danganronpa and Sonic haha
Hahaha 😂
Dude Danganronpa is a total mind fuck tho 🤣
I think these kind of episodes are my favorite, where Arin chooses a game very CLEARLY intended for very young children, and Dan just suffers through it all while Arin seems to have the time of his life.

Arin: “This is the perfect meow song!”
*Arin repressing the memories of THAT level from Sonic Heroes*
Dude we had ALL suppressed those memories, but thanks anyway
I love how dan's optimism and arin's grumpiness kinda just switches in this episode
Edit: nevermind arin's back to normal
Arin: "Now he's really orange"
Me: "You mean he's Fanta Claus?"
I like it when they play games like the last one with the Santa Claus, since the game is so basic they're able to give better commentary and we can still see arin blasting trough the game.
Absolutely stoked for the name update on the Jingle Grumps into. "Egowrapper" is delightful
22:32 "Estrelar" means "to (be a) star" in Portuguese, and it's a workout song. You can find a translation by looking up "Estrelar (English translation) - Marcos Valle", but here's the refrain:
Come, come shine, become another star over the sun
A star shining brighter than the sun
Show yourself more, be a God in the skies and me on Earth
Charm everything, make it all made out of pure air
Finally they are playing games that are around Arin's skill lvl!
Arin in charge of stuff, is a recipe for a great episode.
The first half of the episode has the exact same energy of a married couple, thats only staying together for the kids, being super passive agressive on christmas dinner.
“Finally, The Grumps Play Some Quality Christmas Games, And We’re Living For It” - Buzzfeed
10:02 Jesus Dan! Way to rain on our parade and destroy our Christmas Merriment! This game was my childhoood, and you sat there and mocked it without even CONSIDERING the magical wonder that is Smart Girl's Winter Wonderland!
I'd like to point out that in the smart girls game, Arin randomly paints Santa's bag green and then in Santa saves the earth, the bag is green too. Anyways, I don't have many friends.
What a synchronicity! Great job for spotting that :) happy holidays, merry Christmas!
neither do I
This year the Jiggle Grumps theme is... GASLIGHTING DAN!
In a shocking twist of events, Dan is Grump and Arin is Not So Grump, and this is somehow one of the funniest episodes.
it's nice to come home from a rough day of work and unwind with an episode of- oh, right, we're doing this at the moment.
Im loving jingle grumps and god ive loved the intro to it for so long LOLOL, kinda want them to play more point and click story games tbh 😭😭
I was kinda hoping they'd turn off the narration, and just have Dan read us the night before christmas
This needs to be the top comment
You could actually hear the daggers thrown by Dan in this one!🤣🤣🤪🤪
Something about arin just going "orange.........orange.......orange." is really funny to me for no reason
Smart girls makes me think Arin is going to have so much fun dressing his kid up one day
That is the most beautiful take/comment I've seen about him playing that game. Thank you for this. Happy holidays, merry Christmas 💖
i love how arin gets around cute stuff
ahhh i love Arin, he's one of the only people where i can watch him play dress up with a character without getting annoyed
Jigsaw would really get along with Dan. He really wants to play a game.
I used to babysit, and let me tell you, this is the kind of stuff I had to put up with. And of course you have to pretend to be interested, and praise them for doing simple tasks, and honestly you start out as Arin, and by the time the day is over you're Dan.
14:37 Nilam seeks to destroy Santa's illegal animal mutation experiments lol
Just when I thought the bar of expectations was on the ground, arin starts digging.
I like how every single different place you can find Santa, he'll pose as a different drawing.
the dread in Danny's voice whilst trash talking Arin as he is playing the smart girl winter wonderland is just so hecking relatable and God it's so hilarious
Arin torturing Dan with crappy games is so funny xD
I love Christmas time. Pretty much the only time when you can guarantee they play more than 1 game per episode
"weird eastern european creatures"
Turns out Santa Claus Saves the Earth was made in Lithuania
Me, the minute the game starts: “This is just going to read them the story.”
Arin, 2 seconds later: “Is this just gonna read us the story?!” 🙄😂
Arin, ever the optimist.
Haven't seen arin this happy at customizing a character since the Disney princess game 🤣
You guys should play Ice n’ Fire, it’s a (sort of) Christmas-y, snowy puzzle game where you play as a little ice wizard trying to rescue his homeland from evil fire monsters. I think Danny would really love it, and it would be a perfect game for Jingle Grumps :)
I'm glad Arin is having fun. Its too bad no one else is.
I'm having fun
It's a real Jingle Grumps blessing whenever Dan becomes grump and Arin becomes not-so-grump.
22:22 - "When he kills.."
The children: Santa kills!?!
I literally couldn't breathe from laughing so hard after arin asked Dan where the last present was
"I came here like a pig at a trough" 😄 just give me the slop
Anyone else have PTSD every time they start an episode and think it's gonna say Last Time on Game Grumps? When it doesn't you're relieved?
Yes, I hate that weird voice so much
there needs to be more santa claus saves the earth, 32:37 when they're talking and santas just fucking jammin.
this portly old dude hittin summersaults like they're nothing
Santa Claus Saves The Earth is not a forgettable game! 3ish years later and I still remember Super Mega playing it, and beating it in 3 episodes😅
Dude, I'm coming back and watching Jingle Grump videos I missed and gotta say, the Grumps are literally the only people I'll tolerate watching a playthrough on games like this! They make everything joyful
I'm dying inside just as much as Dan is when watching the Smart Girls game.
It doesn't feel like Christmas until jingle grumps happens
I want to know when they will start playing Thanksgiving themed games for Thanksgiving and calling it 'gobble grumps'
The gurkey turkey grumps.
Aaaahhh yes! The classic Christmastime antagonist Nilam!
JESUS DAN WHERE’S YOUR SENSE OF JOY AND WONDER!
This is hilarious 😂 Jingle Grumps and Ghoul Grumps are the best!!
Dan: I'm not entirely sure this is a game arin
🤣🤣
Arin: WUT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!?!
Arin driving Dan crazy is definitely what makes this episode so brilliant
What an emotional roller coaster. Thank you both.
You guys are the best christmas present.
16:53 The secret to maintaining a happy and healthy Dan Room is A) don’t. Or B) double don’t.
5 years in the future Arin- remember when we played Smart Girls and then that Santa game?
Dan- *What!!*
Fans- Yes, I remember! 😌
Today's episode of "Hey I'm grump, I'm ALSO grump! And we're the Game Grumps!"
Bells on cocktails rings making spirits fight... now THATS a christmas I'd like to see
this was a very cozy and chill episode, thank you game grumps
