When I was in middle school, there was a guy obsessed with Emma Watson. He once said to me, “man, I can’t wait until she turns eighteeeen-uh.” I pointed out to him that he was 12. Didn’t seem to phase him
I think the whole point is that when someone turns 18 those people can then be more "explicit" with their sexual fantasies without feeling "weird" about it. I remember someone calling it something like "jailbait wait edging" 💀
There's the chance they will do a sexually explicit films. I grew up in the '80s. When Alissa Milano, Elizabeth Shue, Heather Graham, Drew Barrymore, and Nicole Eggert starting showing their goodies in rated R films, every guy my age was watching those films. It's really not creepy if you were a kd when they were a kid.
The point, is fappable print media becomes legal to sell featuring her likeness. This's the reason why someone under 18 would care about when a celebrity slightly older than them hits AOC. Peoples celebrity crushes are usually older than they are, though there's obviously exceptions...
i think years of listening to chris chan have destroyed my satire detector for this sort of thing because before you revealed it i was fully ready to believe that the hermione website was 100% sincere

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux,” and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Kinda weird to be telling the actress that, but that’s not entirely true. She was around 16 when the show first aired and they began to sexualize the character more and more kind of like a coming of age arc? Idk that’s how I saw it as a kid watching the show and ya I had a crush on her too, there’s nothing wrong with that just bc the actress chooses to g light ppl about her age during filming. By the end she was like 26, who knows if that person wasn’t talking about when she was like 18 or 20 on the show.

The Velcro wallet is the only thing that would make me think it's a joke. Not that he has a Velcro wallet but him bringing up specifically that he has Velcro wallet. It's an irrelevant detail you'd add just to hammer home how much of a dork someone is.
Ugh, it's so stupid, too. Civilian velcro wears out quickly with use, so that wallet wouldn't last that long unless you literally never used it, like a little kid's first wallet. It just feels way too lame, temporary and juvenile...like a crush on a Harry Potter character would be, of course, so kudos to the author on finding an appropriate metaphor.
that Olsen stuff always unnerved me - when you see big magazines like Rolling Stone pushing it, I start thinking about things like "Epstein client list"
Those were creepy, but there were ones that were a fuckton worse...mainly ones by women over their obsessions. Background searches for people kind find the most insane things there...and a lot of them were quite happy to post said fantasies under their own name...

@@softnoobgirl73 That's not correct, at least for the UK. Even a 50 year old could legally have sex with a 16 year old (which is incredibly fucked up, obviously)

He actually is pushing 40 🤫 but to be fair when HP got big there was a lot of people, especially teenagers, who wrote it off as childish or silly, or just got annoyed at the hype and liked to make fun of it and the fans. That brand of pop culture bashing was REALLY prevalent at the time, especially among young men.
I've also just watched those videos and when Whang said, "now you probably already know this is satire", I honestly wasn't even thinking that's an option at this point lol
Tbh seeing this i just remembered how obsessively cinemasins used to talk about Hermione age of consent. Being a teen at the time, it was so unsettling to hear from a grown man
Ya know i was one of the many that was glad most of the cast of this series actualy had good careers when getting older, so many from other kid shows did not have that for them to say on a light tounge for as dark some of their career paths went.
I read somewhere that the director of the first Harry Potter movie-who was also the director of Home Alone-regretted how he ignored the red flags that Culkin's stage parents gave off, and felt responsible for his downward spiral. So when casting for HP he interviewed the parents of each actor he wanted, so he could weed out stage parents and end up with kids who had healthy home lives. So the reason the Potter cast is so normal is because their parents actually care about them, unlike lots of child actors.
7:48 the term LOL get's tossed around a lot these days but... I actually ended up exploding with laughter at the unexpected uh... "photoshop" here. It's perfect I don't know how else to describe it.
MAD TV did a sketch on these countdowns and I remeember it being one of the most uncomfortable sketches they did but also probably one of their best considering how they called out how creepy all of this is if it were presented in real time and with the 'objects of affection' there to see it happen while being unaware of the implications.
@@MordredsGirl true Harry is a month younger than me and the fact that his cousin and friends wear jumper suits was a huge fashion trend in 1990s England
I remember Kevin and Bean here in LA had 18th birthday countdowns for Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Emma Watson, basically all the underage female celebrities. And this was just part of the wildly popular syndicated morning show. Crazy how mainstream it was.
It’s wild and so sad to think that all of the HP actores/actresses suffered from stalkers. There was one guy who legally had his name changed to Malfoy and tried to grab Felton in public.
The way he pronounces her name reminds me of Humbert pronouncing Lolita. "Her the apple of mi eye, the mio to my minestrone, one you my one Her-mi-one"
its fucking bizarre looking back on shit like this back then people didnt really think about it sounding weird and creepy, they were just trying to be funny. another example of jokes coming off as really strange in the modern era would be that website about tracking down and destroying copies of shaq fu, a few jokes on that site, while they got a chuckle out of me, definitely threw me off and made me audibly go "jesus dude" i dunno if we've all gotten softer or if we're better for it and its just the natural evolution of comedy/public standards, but shit like the 18th birthday counters belong far back in the past lmao that shits wack
I remember when Justin Bieber was about to turn eighteen and people were counting down the days. I went to a Spencers not too long after his eighteenth birthday and saw a Justin Bieber sex doll that said something like "He's Finally 18!" and I was so grossed out I had to leave before whatever I came in there for in the first place. (I think it called him "Beaver" or something for legal reasons though.)
Every time this comes up I have to bring up how one of the many reasons that Cinemasins doesn’t hold up is how frequently they say stuff like “Hermione isn’t old enough to be hot yet”
This entire video almost made me sick. The initial website was bad enough regardless of the satire, but being made aware of other similar websites that were 100% genuine made me gag, and the fact that it was not only socially accepted but also ENCOURAGED by news publications was horrifying. The Olsen Twins one was probably the worst, because they have been famous since they were practically toddlers. Even if the countdowns didn't start until they were a few years short of 18, that still makes it extremely creepy.
Lol the 19.95 killed me. It makes me think of a screen saver my uncle installed on my pc around 2002. It was made to mock the apple imacs that had come out in color the year before. It's vibrators made to look like the imacs and they vibe across the screen to "she comes in colors" by love. He found it absolutely hysterical.
Not gonna lie, the behaviour paparazzi can get away with is truly ridiculous. If someone was trying to take upskirt pics of a waitress they would end up in serious trouble, but a celebrity at an event is perfectly fine and even encouraged. Did we forget that they are people?
I didn’t remember Emma looking that young in the movies which makes this feel even more creepy. It’s weird these people don’t have any feelings of shame
There’s been many of these creepy count downs long before the Hermione one. I remember there was a news story about the Olsen Twins 18th count down before that.
"u should just do nothing" is such a funny insult to me. In our modern age of 'kys' and 'go touch grass', just telling someone to not do anything whatsoever is hilarious.
I thought of the Olsen twins as soon as I saw this as I remembered all the jokes and media attention on them turning 18. I never took it serious and thought it was a way for the twins management to shed their image of a child star and start taking on more adult material. A lot of female child/teen celebrities had taken a similar approach like Britney Spears and others

Christina Applegate did an interview talking about all the old dudes that tell her “I had the biggest crush on Kelly Bundy”.
She reminds them she was 16.
I also had a crush on Kelly Bundy. Only, I was a few years behind her. Not 40...
Kinda weird to be telling the actress that, but that’s not entirely true. She was around 16 when the show first aired and they began to sexualize the character more and more kind of like a coming of age arc?
Idk that’s how I saw it as a kid watching the show and ya I had a crush on her too, there’s nothing wrong with that just bc the actress chooses to g light ppl about her age during filming. By the end she was like 26, who knows if that person wasn’t talking about when she was like 18 or 20 on the show.
It’s really weird that the show began sexualizing her at 16 more and more as the show progressed
@@AppalachianMountaineer1863The show was caricaturizing American culture... so it's not weird at all. It's a mirror.

The entire concept of counting down when a girl turns 18 is really really creepy. Just flat out gross
Unless you're like also 18. Even then idk...
You know whats worse?
When somebody uses the word “jailbait”, like they say it often enough and comfortably,
So you know what type of talks they have with their closer friend group…..
Like that shouldn’t even be in your vocabulary,
You SHOULD stutter if you have to say it.
Like a white person saying the N word.
If they toss that word out like its nothing, it says ALOT about them (not with an AH, im talking hard R)

@@drakemallard1486yeah I was 17 when I saw this happening and it didn't really stand out to me, just the internet being the internet, the reporters upskirting her and the reaction to that was pretty gross though

The Velcro wallet is the only thing that would make me think it's a joke. Not that he has a Velcro wallet but him bringing up specifically that he has Velcro wallet. It's an irrelevant detail you'd add just to hammer home how much of a dork someone is.
Only a fanny pack could be more dorkish
Ugh, it's so stupid, too. Civilian velcro wears out quickly with use, so that wallet wouldn't last that long unless you literally never used it, like a little kid's first wallet.
It just feels way too lame, temporary and juvenile...like a crush on a Harry Potter character would be, of course, so kudos to the author on finding an appropriate metaphor.

that Olsen stuff always unnerved me - when you see big magazines like Rolling Stone pushing it, I start thinking about things like "Epstein client list"
Those were creepy, but there were ones that were a fuckton worse...mainly ones by women over their obsessions.
Background searches for people kind find the most insane things there...and a lot of them were quite happy to post said fantasies under their own name...
If you think this is creepy, there were people counting down when the girl from Lazy Town became legal.

I miss how things were back in the day.
One of the newspapers here in the UK (I'm sure someone can let us know which one) has a countdown to Emma Watsons SIXTEENTH birthday (the legal age of consent here). How creepy is THAT?
wow
16 Is only the age of consent due to Romeo and Juliette laws. Basically it's so a 18 year old doesn't get in trouble for having sex with a 17 year old
@@softnoobgirl73 That's not correct, at least for the UK. Even a 50 year old could legally have sex with a 16 year old (which is incredibly fucked up, obviously)
@@softnoobgirl73 Honestly that makes it even worse considering that means older adult people are interested in when a teen kid being old enough to screw someone else that is either ALSO a teen kid or just barely not legally a kid (but realistically is still not going to be that much more mentally mature than a 16 or 17 year old even if 18 is "legal")
@@softnoobgirl73 Yeah, it would not cover someone of higher age, nor would it be permissible for such a person to appear in pornography.
Romeo & Juliet laws are a good and sensible thing for protecting closely aged youths.
The angry kids are definitely the icing on the cake. Those responses are GOLD
even funnier, that first kid almost definitely is not a kid and is just a troll.
I dont even feel dumb for not initially realizing this was satirical. I spent the early 2000s combing through anime character "shrines" and other personal webpages for niche bullshit. This reminds me so much of some of those pages that nothing raised a red flag to me.
I kept waiting for Chris Hansen to pop up.
"Take a seat"
Chris Hansen asking Chris Chan to take a seat would have been gold.

I don't think these websites were that "satirical" tbh.
He mentions that this one was, and got grouped together with all the other countdown websites that weren’t satire.
Most of them probably really were created for that purpose, but that doesn’t mean the people who regularly visited them were in it for the satire…
It could easily not be satire... But this one I'm pretty confident was a joke
Especially when the guy is talking about a literal child,. That’s something you can’t joke about
This one clearly was tho
It’s funny this dude just left his real name on the website and then after shit hits the fan he changes the guys name

For Justin to be too old for Harry Potter when it came out, he’d have to be well into his 40’s right now.
He actually is pushing 40 🤫 but to be fair when HP got big there was a lot of people, especially teenagers, who wrote it off as childish or silly, or just got annoyed at the hype and liked to make fun of it and the fans. That brand of pop culture bashing was REALLY prevalent at the time, especially among young men.
I'm only 38 and was too old for Harry Potter when it first came out. And he looks to be about the same age as me.
I'm 36 and never got into HP. I do respect JK Rowling though. Her views align with mine.
I'm 28 and was too old for Harry Potter. Or at least that's my excuse for being too illiterate to read it.
@ConsistentlyInconsistent21 hope you learn to be more loving then friend
The most disturbing thing in this video was a wallpaper being $20.

Tbh seeing this i just remembered how obsessively cinemasins used to talk about Hermione age of consent. Being a teen at the time, it was so unsettling to hear from a grown man
The internet has yet to surpass the magazine covers in the grocery checkout lines of the 90s and 2000s.
Ya know i was one of the many that was glad most of the cast of this series actualy had good careers when getting older, so many from other kid shows did not have that for them to say on a light tounge for as dark some of their career paths went.
true
I read somewhere that the director of the first Harry Potter movie-who was also the director of Home Alone-regretted how he ignored the red flags that Culkin's stage parents gave off, and felt responsible for his downward spiral. So when casting for HP he interviewed the parents of each actor he wanted, so he could weed out stage parents and end up with kids who had healthy home lives. So the reason the Potter cast is so normal is because their parents actually care about them, unlike lots of child actors.

MAD TV did a sketch on these countdowns and I remeember it being one of the most uncomfortable sketches they did but also probably one of their best considering how they called out how creepy all of this is if it were presented in real time and with the 'objects of affection' there to see it happen while being unaware of the implications.
I hate having had such a Harry Potter phase that my brain went: Hermione Granger, the character, turned 18 in the late 90s. These are fake fans
I was going to say, HP is behind me but I thought part of it was that it took place in the 90s.

You're right, I didn't understand how "different" things were back then. Dear god
I remember Kevin and Bean here in LA had 18th birthday countdowns for Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Emma Watson, basically all the underage female celebrities. And this was just part of the wildly popular syndicated morning show. Crazy how mainstream it was.
It’s wild and so sad to think that all of the HP actores/actresses suffered from stalkers. There was one guy who legally had his name changed to Malfoy and tried to grab Felton in public.
It would be funny if Emma Watson went on a date with this guy all these years on just to bring the satire full circle.

back then people didnt really think about it sounding weird and creepy, they were just trying to be funny. another example of jokes coming off as really strange in the modern era would be that website about tracking down and destroying copies of shaq fu, a few jokes on that site, while they got a chuckle out of me, definitely threw me off and made me audibly go "jesus dude"

The internet is the ultimate double edged sword
I remember when Justin Bieber was about to turn eighteen and people were counting down the days. I went to a Spencers not too long after his eighteenth birthday and saw a Justin Bieber sex doll that said something like "He's Finally 18!" and I was so grossed out I had to leave before whatever I came in there for in the first place. (I think it called him "Beaver" or something for legal reasons though.)
OH SHIT I remember that too.
NGL I laughed because he was a prick.
I still remember the multiple Angelfire sites counting down until the Olsen twins turned 18. Holy hell.

Premium satire
That’s some neckbeard vibes 😂
Satirical or not, that website still far passes the creepy threshold
SNL also had Lindsay Lohan do a sketch as Hermione that was all about the adult castmembers ogling her body when she was 17.
lost it at that 12yo roasting him lmao
Every time this comes up I have to bring up how one of the many reasons that Cinemasins doesn’t hold up is how frequently they say stuff like “Hermione isn’t old enough to be hot yet”
This entire video almost made me sick. The initial website was bad enough regardless of the satire, but being made aware of other similar websites that were 100% genuine made me gag, and the fact that it was not only socially accepted but also ENCOURAGED by news publications was horrifying.
The Olsen Twins one was probably the worst, because they have been famous since they were practically toddlers. Even if the countdowns didn't start until they were a few years short of 18, that still makes it extremely creepy.
I love Whang videos because i can space out while it's in the background and tune back in when i hear something like 17:11
In the UK, 2 years earlier, there was a countdown in the tabloid newspapers to her 16th birthday (age of consent in UK is 16.)
any company that sponsors whang is truly brave for doing so
I still remember the Billie Eillish countdown, I'm only like 2 years older than her
Lol the 19.95 killed me. It makes me think of a screen saver my uncle installed on my pc around 2002. It was made to mock the apple imacs that had come out in color the year before. It's vibrators made to look like the imacs and they vibe across the screen to "she comes in colors" by love. He found it absolutely hysterical.
Not gonna lie, the behaviour paparazzi can get away with is truly ridiculous.
If someone was trying to take upskirt pics of a waitress they would end up in serious trouble, but a celebrity at an event is perfectly fine and even encouraged. Did we forget that they are people?

There’s been many of these creepy count downs long before the Hermione one. I remember there was a news story about the Olsen Twins 18th count down before that.
"u should just do nothing" is such a funny insult to me. In our modern age of 'kys' and 'go touch grass', just telling someone to not do anything whatsoever is hilarious.
I thought of the Olsen twins as soon as I saw this as I remembered all the jokes and media attention on them turning 18. I never took it serious and thought it was a way for the twins management to shed their image of a child star and start taking on more adult material. A lot of female child/teen celebrities had taken a similar approach like Britney Spears and others
