QUICK PSA: I've had a few people message me to say that someone is pretending to be me on Discord and TikTok. I am not on Discord OR TikTok! Unfortunately, scammers are more and more likely to use "approachable" parasocial celebrities in order to take advantage of you. Be cautious of anyone claiming to be someone that you admire on the internet. It's easy to tell it's a scam if "George Clooney" slides into my DMs (even though I really hope he does), but it's much harder to catch if the scammer is claiming to be a niche internet microceleb. So here's my (somewhat harsh) promise: I will never DM you. Heck, I barely text my own friends! Sorry about that, real-life friends. Please please please be wary of scammers on the internet, especially as AI becomes more prevalent. Stay safe out there!
So, wait, if Briar Damin Gibler is now telling me NOT to send him my grandma's SSN, then who's the Briar Damin Gibler I already sent my grandma's SSN to???
Just wanna say I am LOVING you on Dropout dude! Watching you as Dr. Avery Goodman on "Very Important People" opposite Vic Michaelis and as the fact checker opposite Ify Nwadiwe on "Um, Actually" has been an incredible delight. Hoping to see you on more Dropout programming!

I bet these probably work better than bigger stars. Like as unlikely as BDG randomly messaging you on discord is it is probably more likely than Tom Cruise randomly messaging you.
The funniest part for me is that all of your PSA statements are true, but they also have a funny little asterisk for *except Patreon but that’s a very specific thing and not how you’re probably imagining right now
I thought this was just a song at first but this is still good to know. I have not gotten any DMs from tiktok but I have gotten some replies to youtube comments from Telegram from people pretending to be the youtuber whose page I was commenting on.
You are absolutely right To have those scammers in your sight. All they want to do is cause people hurt, To take from your back your nice striped shirt. Pretending to be what they are not, Because the scammers' brain Is one big clot.
the fact that this is the beginning of his channel playlist and it says "don't trust anyone who says something like..." before his entire channel's videos play is extremely ironic
Someone once tried to scam me by pretending to be the old man who dances and doesn't say anything from The Northern Boys, which is a duo of elderly men who rap. Not one of the Northern Boys, but their dancer. So never think you're not famous enough to be impersonated.

Well don't tell that to us; go message your friends! Tell them you love them and that they have a cool hat or something. That's your chance!
You're great
But I want to play board games with you
“I barely text my real friends”
dont we all- thanks for the warning tho!
As a wise sage from the ancient era of dial-up once said,
"I am not your friend, and you have no say over what I do with my body"
How do I know *THIS* isn't a scam trying to keep me from helping out my good friend Brian???
I see no evidence you're the real FishuaJo 🤔
@@skarloey1214 That's something the real skarloey1214 would never say
Don’t you mean Briar
Aah yes the ol' friendship denial scam
@@skarloey1214nice try, skarloey, if that is even your name.
Nice try "Brian", I know the real Brian doesnt have a youtube channel
He's too busy living at Dropout and correcting facts on Um, Actually to be on RUclips.
yeah we know damn well he's still on Vine
YES HE FINALLY CUT HIS HAIR
Nice try “Brian”, I know the real Brish doesn’t make RUclips shorts
Only BDG could make a serious PSA about a genuine topic and make it such a banger without diminishing the message. Hats off to you good sir.
Now if only polygon had its original members we could have some great videos
I wish that I could wear hats so I can also Hats off to good sirs
So, wait, if Briar Damin Gibler is now telling me NOT to send him my grandma's SSN, then who's the Briar Damin Gibler I already sent my grandma's SSN to???
Briar Damin Gibler doesn't want you to send your grandma's SSN because he already has it and doesn't need another copy. Hope this helps!
Wait if Briar Damin Gibler doesn't want my grandma's SSN then who am I supposed to give it to???
Oh, does that Briar Damin Gibler share an address with one Damian Smiles? That should explain it.
Have you considered that maybe it wasn't the journey, but the Briar Damin Giblers we found along the way?
BAHAHA ‘TWAS I! Jesus _Christ_ your nana is ill, you should call her
So those confessions of love we had on discord weren't real? I'll need some time to process this
this is his cowardly way of breaking up with you, actually :(
Austin Butler as a Skarsgard is such a good joke
Seriously, whenever he popped up in the Dune trailers I actually thought he *was* a Skarsgard
@@dcasey714Wait, that Dune guy is NOT a Skarsgard?! 💀 I though it was the guy who played It
@@Ghost-lt4sfsame!!
Lol thanks I would have never noticed
@@Ghost-lt4sfTimothy chalemet my favorite skarsgard
Briar is the most approachable parasocial relationship celebrity I have
I knew right from the moment he asked for my bank account info that he really cares about his close friends
Bingus Dingus GrubHub just needs a couple grand to get his da out of Nigerian king prison! I’m not made of stone!
@@amoureux6502 he even took my TV away because he knew i was getting addicted to it

Wait I legit got excited when I "found" "you" on tiktok. Thank you for this PSA...
"Even I try to avoid doing it" come on now Brian
Damn I was wondering where all the wood in my lumberyard went after that impassioned Discord conversation
The loop is so well done! Perfectly calculated, though it's so sad you had to make the PSA.
I love that you have exactly one short and it's this.
Top-tier educational rap flow.
Not my lumberyards!
i love that it loops so cleanly
But the only one I have a shrine built in their name is YOU, Brain Dave Gilbermay. Can’t aim any higher than that.
This is the best use of Shorts I’ve seen since Brian’s Jorts video.
Absolutely taken out by BDG refering to Michael Bay an as Auteur
lindsay ellis reference
I bet these probably work better than bigger stars. Like as unlikely as BDG randomly messaging you on discord is it is probably more likely than Tom Cruise randomly messaging you.
Catchy, Perfect Loop, Genuine Warning, Politely shaming scammers, Bloody Fantastic.
They could pretend to be THE Dwight from Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
Dam this is actually a banger🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
I don't trust this 'cause it's not from briar damin gibler.
The funniest part for me is that all of your PSA statements are true, but they also have a funny little asterisk for *except Patreon but that’s a very specific thing and not how you’re probably imagining right now
Not only is this funny, IT LOOPS PERFECTLY. Bravo.
All jokes aside, GENUINELY HELPFUL. Thanks, Gibler!
unironically a fire beat
I think that impersonating you is such a challenge, they wanted to test themselves
Watched once for the amazing music and then again for those dms 😂
What a lovely find! Another BDG song!
Bro did PSA and turned it into banger
I usually despise Shorts that try to “seemlessly” loop their Videos there only like 3 I’ve seen that did it well and this is one, great work Damien!
How does the rhyme scheme in this manage to be satisfying when it's so utterly infuriating. Also, excellent loop
Austin Butler in Dune with “Skarsgård??” Has me dying
His only short is a well made PSA. Absolute Chad
Thank you for this PSA. Scams are the worst, and I'm glad you're calling them out (in a fun way)!
Your hair is looking particularly exquisite in this one.
Good to know that you're not on those platforms!
I was scammed into watching this three times continuously because I didn't realise it looped and I'm not mad
the most godlike use of the vertical space of short-form content I have ever seen.
Of course I see this AFTER signing over the rights to my lumber yard to someone who I now see is named brain gilber+ 😔
I thought this was just a song at first but this is still good to know. I have not gotten any DMs from tiktok but I have gotten some replies to youtube comments from Telegram from people pretending to be the youtuber whose page I was commenting on.
No my lumber yard!😢
Great way to bring attention to this issue
Normally I hate that shorts loop. Meanwhile I've had this playing for who knows how long😅
Damn that loop is CLEAN
Hitting the high note on "a little higher" really was an unexpected treat (also meta funny)
Can you put out an album please?
First short is a PSA, you are awsome
Catchy song with a good message is classic Gibler.
Nooo not my lumber yards 😭😭 how dare those scammers try to take them from me
Holy shit it’s Brigand Avid Gillette from Starfield!
I cannot believe a PSA is going into the Too Good for Human Eyes playlist, yet here we are, with yet another banger from Brian David Gilbert.
Thank you for taking the time to weigh in and fight back
that loop is sick
You are absolutely right
To have those scammers in your sight.
All they want to do is cause people hurt,
To take from your back your nice striped shirt.
Pretending to be what they are not,
Because the scammers' brain
Is one big clot.
Going out of your way to call Michael Bay an “auteur director” hurt my film school brain.
I love those little synthy stab chords in the middle
I don’t know who you are, but this is great and I love it.
this is one of the nicest diss tracks ive ever heard lol
Thanks for looking out for us, Brian!
Hair and beard are looking on point, BryGuy.
Thank you scammers for being the inspiration for this song
Ah yes, one short made on all of bdg history and it shows what an amazing editor he is.
Holy hell I havent seen any of your content in a while and straight up got whiplash seeing you with facial hair again. Ngl you rock it
this man makes a single youtube short and it's perfect❤
Not being on tiktok is a sigma move
Unrelated but I NEED you and Chris flemming to interact and record it. I just feel like you two would be so funny together
all the homeschool jokes about johnny are so funny knowing he literally went to my high school 😭
I see your hair has grown even more powerful. Keep up the good work.
Literally never seen this guy before, but that is both the point and a shame
Haven't seen this guy's content for a while, so the beard was a big surprise for me
this is actually such a good song
the fact that this is the beginning of his channel playlist and it says "don't trust anyone who says something like..." before his entire channel's videos play is extremely ironic
That was incredible ❤
How is this masterpiece his FIRST short? A++
fun story: the first time I got catfished, it's 2005 on MySpace, and they claimed to be Anne Hathaway
This song loops! I can listen to it for EVEEEER
The loop on this is TIGHT
briar damin gibler haunts my every dream
The perfect loop really brings this all together
Gibler is an underrated last name
I need this on spotify
your hair and beard look so fabulous in this video. along with your glasses, they frame your face in such a lovely way
This hair and facial hair style looks very lovely on you. Very handsome. I promise not to get scammed by fake you if you keep it for a while 👍🏻
thank you for this psa and also banger music and banger loop 🙏
dam this is too good for it to be labeled a short,
brian really can always make a good song out of anything. its really dang impressive. but thanks for the psa!!
I know it's accurate to call Michael Bay an arteur but it *sounds* wrong.
thank you. this is important.

I wonder if I could acquire a lumber yard...
Not my lumber yards!
That loop goes so hard
the fact that this video was also reposted by the Tiktok accounts is very funny.
Somehow Austin Butler as Feyd-Rautha is the most Skarsgard person on that list.
You don't catfish as the cutest girl at the bar. You go for the girl next door to be approachable. 😎
