Overboard, also known as "watch six people with anxiety not understand how casual greetings work"
i was SCREAMING internally the WHOLE TIME that they put s o much discussion into “hey”
It was SUCH a Millennial take that they immediately went to texting when she LITERALLY spoke it. They had voice inflection and body language to work with but no, let's imagine she texted it instead.

Dude that meme died. Show it some respect. At the very least, make sure you're using it on a boomer...

Overboard: Where they debate if "hey" is a normal greeting or not.
And they all get it wrong
actual portrayal of any board game night tbh
Polygon team: Most normal people in the world.
"I've never seen Brian eat any fruit" someone hasn't watched Gill & Gilbert
"I've never seen Brian commit irredeemable food crimes"
Namely, mushrooms and apples.
I was thinking All The Strawberries - are mushrooms fruit?
Madi no, they’re fungi bruh. Also, is A S S a fruit?
Rie Spark someone hasnt watched brian make 78 recipes from breath of the wild
Watching four adults interpret someone saying “hey” to them in a neutral tone as weird/very weird/THREATENING/not a greeting at all, made me feel much better about my own social anxiety.
nasecoo you forgot 8:24 "/pre-sext", which honestly, as someone who texts Hey when I start a conversation with someone gives me more anxiety than the difference between talking to someone and talking to someone.
Bear in mind there is purposefully no emphasis on any word in that last statement.
"hey" just sounds ominous to me, to my ears almost any other greeting sounds more auspicious
Hey
@Ties de Jong hey opens up to many ways a conversation could steer to, the context is very important and the worry comes from that lack of context.
@Ties de Jong The thing is there's a big difference between a text that says "hey." and a text that says "hey, what's up?" or "Hey, how's it going?"
It's also different between text and speech because if someone just says a short "hey" in a more tired tone of voice, I can easily tell it's an acknowledgement of my presence, not an invitation for conversation. But if I wanted to do something similar over text or like messenger, I'd say something like "boop" or even just "*"
no one appreciating russ’s “except for horses” when they talked about how hey would be weird for people in the 1820’s breaks my heart. i heard u russ, i heard u
Okay so I already liked this comment a while ago but I only just now realized that was a pun bc that's what horses eat. I just assumed horses would know the greeting hey in the 1820s. I... dont know how i didnt connect the dots
Daniel Alexander you have no idea how much I appreciate this comment. This made my day. I absolutely love this
@@whatalovelybreadstick2449I'm glad u were able to find joy in my stupidity 💛
immediately dove into the comments to find this!! lol
Rewatching this video and only just noticed that joke. Most slept on Russ joke of all time.
"Are polygon videos art or commerce?"
BDG you shaved off your moustache to emotional music trying to get Waluigi into a game.
Very true
Also, gesamtkunstwerk. Shit's art.
As well as pat sending nintendo diaper toad for like 12 weeks
Not just to put waluigi into a video game but to play waluigi in said video game
"I am going to throw myself into the sea."
Russ having an existential crisis over his own fear of sharks is an underrated part of the video.
But is it more or less underrated than I?
Tbh, this whole video is just pure gold. Hard to sit on, I wish it was science, willing to turn that dial all the way to commerce. This is the best Overboard episode by far, and they have many great ones.
Oh, and pre-sext and Are you thirsty? Are you thirsty right now?
"Am I unreasonable for being afraid of sharks?" With serious concern on his face.
@@FeamT😊
The best part of every Overboard video is someone badly misunderstanding the rules and “hard to sit on” is one of the funniest of those ever
All the plants!
Wait what time was this?
The Seventh Ducks 16:20
It's always Pat... strong Burger Chainz energy
Bailey Granquist the look on his face whenever he realizes he’s made another mistake is... perfection
As always, Pat is either practising inter-dimensional chess or completely disoriented about how the game works.
I feel like Pat is always somehow doing both at the same time
I love how I just saw this comment on werewords
@@chloe102 I had to look that, didn't know there was such a similar comment
Remembers the werewolf train faint definitely both
"Hard to sit on"
5:08 - Brian: “Hey, can we remember who *left* Polygon?”
Me, sobbing quietly: oh, how the turn tables
_weeps into lace handkerchief_
As soon as I got to that part of the video I came looking for a comment like this
“Just slightly more art” than he left. Maybe he just doesn’t like art who knows.
He commited to doing it after making the "Pokémon Edibility" Unraveled.
I'm new to this chanel, who left?
One of my new favorite out of context Overboard sentences: "It's not just about us and our time, it's also about ants, and people in the 1820s."
Along with, “Everyone knows the most underrated letter is W.”
Sam Lee, it is true. jan Misali has a great video about the letter W, named “w”.
Edit: channel name updated.
@@felipevasconcelos6736 Jan misali
@@Viscidsquare040 the channel was named “Conlang Critic” when I made this comment. He renamed it to “jan Misali” a few months later.
@@felipevasconcelos6736 oh ok
when simone says “that’s hot” you can see the exact moment jennas soul leaves her body
when is this i need to know
@@jessehunter362 its shortly after 25:18 when brian suggests hugging oscar is about fixing someone
Anyone who didn't get the urge to hug Oscar the Grouch during that conversation is lying
"Pat isn't very good at having strong opinions" < "Luigi is the Jackie Chan of Games and you should just accept it"
AND I STAND BEHIND HIM 100%
THATS NOT AN OPINION THATS FACT SIR
for some reason when I read this my brain parsed it as "Pat is the Luigi of video games" and I was just like yeah, makes sense, i'm with ya pardner
That video must have been released during the time Allegra was away. ONLY ACCEPTABLE EXCUSE
pat saying "you thirsty? are you thirsty right now?" so unnecessarily aggressively made me laugh so hard and i have no idea why
It’s a weird greeting
I absolutely LOVE how Pat just thoughtfully leans in and goes 'Are you saying art can't suck' thus opening an incredible debate on the rules of art, intentional suck-y art, as well as what constitutes as sucking in the art world. And then Brian: they taped a banana to a wall
Then someone ate it.
didn't the same person make a functioning gold toilet called america and then it got stolen?
@@epikitee2186 I have no idea, but I wouldn't be surprised
@@Iceax_ i just checked and it is indeed true. the banana was called "comedian," btw.
@@epikitee2186 the meaning of the art piece is that we should tape all comedians to a wall and then eat the least funny one as a sacrifice. in this essay, i will
"When you have social anxiety, any greeting is a weird greeting" Accurate statement.
Hewwo
hey
"Hello, I'm not mad at you for anything you've ever said or done. I hope you're having a nice day."
@@jq762 But wait, you had to explicitly say it... does that mean you ARE mad at me?
That whole social anxiety bit was so heightened when it came to his turn on the wheel...
"if i get a text that just says 'hey' with no punctuation, no nothing, i'm going to have a panic attack" pat, you doing okay?
Something's telling me "No"
I totally understand that though,."Hey," as a stand alone text (as I took Jenna's, "Hey,") is terrifying as someone is usually gonna give you bad news or ask for a terrible favor.
mood tho
This was the most real thing anyone has ever said
Clowreader Really? Interesting. As a teenager who interacts with adults and students on a daily basis, I’d say “hey” is super common and chill among teens, and honestly a lot of adults use it in a normal way too, even over text
Pat just saying "hard to sit on" is the best thing since "any plant"
What episode was any "plant"?
@@dayalasingh5853 when they played Anomia
I had to pause the video for a while because I was laughing too much to keep up.
15:31
"Murders are everywhere. Statistically there are two murders in this room"
Jenna and Simone simultaneously look at each other then at the others. It's excellent.
Underrated moment. Glad I read this comment.
“‘LMNO’ is the boy band of the alphabet”
I can’t even begin to explain the noise I made at that statement
Grace Lemmon I mean...they're not wrong.
I feel like it would be a crime to neglect saying that at this point in the timeline of the universe, this comment has four hundred twenty likes.
In Mexico we still do the alphabet song, but we have "LMNÑOP", which I think mostly ruins the Boyband Effect
Pat's new haircut makes him look like a sophisticated gothic author in the best ways possible
just in time to write his three memoirs

@@unknownusername5111 strong dad vibes
@@chekinemi951 what the the Victorian gentry class would do for that look
The fact that Pat was the one to explain the rules in the beginning and then "hard to sit on" happens is just *chefs kiss*👩🍳👌

The term for the weed version could be "bong dong"?

“Can we remember who left Polygon? Someone obviously didn’t think their work was artistic enough.” -Brian David Gilbert, predicting his own future
40:52
Theres no hard science on weed causing impotence..
Simone: "only soft science".
I see what you did there
reminds me of a moment in anomia - brennan was explaining something shortly after the "any plant" incident, and simone went "this man knows his shit... and it's full of edible plants."
With the glance at the camera and the grin. Is perfect.
Also, the perfect name? "Hash Pipe", thank you Weezer
She had SO MANY good under her breath jokes in that section it was g r e a t
bryn grossmann A testament to the quality of this content that 8 months later we’re still talking about it
Pat looking sharp with that short hair, BDG not looking like a 70s adult film actor anymore. Also I don't blame Pat for misunderstanding the rules, but Hard To Sit On was amazing
“‘Hard to sit on’ is 100% easy to sit on.”
Also shout out to Jenna being a headband queen. We need to support her in this tough time as she grows out her undercut
AvenRox BDG is babyfaced again and I’m all for it.
casual kevin as someone also growing out an undercut I feel her pain 😔
pat with short hair is almost unrecognizable as pat, yet wayyyy too handsome at the same time
Everytime its Pat's turn:
Everyone: Welcome to the Polygon Roast of Patrick Gill
Pat, whose dial landed entirely in "Hard to Sit on" side: *Hard to Sit On*
Everyone Else:...what?
Pat: what did I do?
Less than a minute later
"POLYGON DOT C*M VIDEO CONTENT"
With a name like that...
@@JamesCPotter13 i feel like giving him a hug after that 😂
How DARE Brian say that his content is not art!!!
Never has any art been more pure than a man doing a dream ballet of elemental pokemon.
Whistling Banshee he’s really doing a disgrace to that Waluigi epic he proposed
The whole unreveal series is art but if you see like, polygon things as whole, and also, his stuff can be art and also be commercial, because after a while he kind have to do the stuff because he needs food
@@-piras But… but? He can just do more Unraveled about food? A problem that fixes itself! If your art can't pay for your food, make sure the art is food! That way you can eat it after
@@dig8634 well he did do that and we know how that turned out
"I've been afraid of sharks while in a swimming pool"
Glass shark love Pat kid, that's one thing about glass shark you gotta know
I thought the same thing!
I was specifically looking for a comment like this
Masterful... Art
“Even though I think everything you do is art-“
Pat smiles
“Pat’s a little hard on himself”
Pat’s smile slowly falls

My favorite is BDG just contemplating what she just said for half a second
She's not wrong tho

@@lgdebruin7256 when was that?
Polygon: "Just slightly more art than commerce"
Ironically, slap that on a T-shirt, and I'd buy it.
Max Moran it would need a picture of some kind to continue being slightly more art
@@haeilsey BDG's face.
@@notAshildr Honestly, I'd buy a shirt with BDG's face on it even without text.
Scratch that, _especially_ without text.
Them all discussing whether Pat thinks "I" is underrated or not gives off the exact same energy as my 5 brain cells on the first question of a paper.
Amy W you have 5 of them??
pat literally has a No Thots Head Empty expression while trying to parse what was happening at Hard To Sit On/Somebody Else's Butt part and it's VALID and god what a mood
I know it's supposed to be thoughts, but I wish to live in this world
"Is the mere act of editing not art?"
["ty simone" flashes up on screen]
Aww
19:00
Pat: "I've been afraid of sharks while in a swimming pool"
Justin McElroy: GLASS SHARK!
that was my first goddamn thought when he said that
That deep water.
That dark water.
Glass shark gon come, he come and eat your brotha!
Glass shark loveeee da fat kid, you gotta swim fat kid, pretend there’s a corn dog at the end of the pool!

He has our backs
This is a way stronger Overboard comeback than I expected and I'm not mad at it.
"technical difficulties" yeah right you just couldn't let Jenna announce the secret forbidden perfect mouthfeel to the world and the rest of the breaks are red herrings
Why is nobody talking about the mouthfeel?!
@@danatronics9039 it rattles my chromosomes
Brian having long hair and no mustache in this is so trippy, cus I always subconsciously date these videos based on the state of his head and facial hair and now I am so very lost
May Alexander things went down in the waluigi unraveled
HallelujahHarlequin for real lmao
and no nail polish.
tbh in the teaser for this vid it went from a shot of Brian in front to Jenna in front so fast i thought they were the same person based purely on same hair length/colour and i havent been the same since
The incredible decision-making teamwork of Brian-Jenna-Pat is so good to watch. They're the smartest idiots.
the fact that the phrase "they taped a banana to the wall" is from 2020 yet feels like three years ago really says something about the times that we live in
I have news for you
"For me, the most perfect mouth feel would be [REDACTED]"
*Hey*
what was she going to say... it haunts me
Not enough people talk about the Mouth Feel™️

I can't believe they didn't catch Simone's
*Only soft science*

When?
@@alyssashih2895 At the very end of the pseudoscience round. Jenna says there is no hard science, and Simone responds with "only soft science"

Aromantic simone "if you text me that ill report you" de rochefort lol
"When there was only one set of foot prints in the sand, that was when Pat was carrying me"
Right as the lights start shining brighter on Pat... 10/10
“I wish it was science” reveals more about Pat than any of Russ’s psychoanalysis
you heard it here first, folks. Patrick Gill needs reverse Viagra.
I feel like "I wish it was science" could have its own wavelength card of "Stoners should be impotent" to "I want to be impotent"
@@squidbit4353 I thought it was more like " I wish I could blame marijuana "
@@candyh4284 I hope he covers that in one of his memoirs.
Pat mentions having social anxiety. Minutes later, Pat mispeaks and everyone laughs at him.
That's rough, yo. We're here for you, Pat. We've all been there.
My heart goes out to Pat after 49:08 as well
hey pat, everyone loves you
I mean they weren't laughing at him to be mean, it was a funny accident, plus it's in a group of friends so it's endearing. But sure embarrassment is an important part of it
I was laughing because I KNEW it would be exactly something I would do
I was fully on board with Jen, Hey is THE MOST NORMAL greeting I feel like I was in the twilight zone when they were arguing that "Hey" is a weird greeting
You can’t tell me pat doesn’t make a good argument though
"if I get a text that just says 'hey' with no punctuation, no nothing, I'm going to have a panic attack" Pat 8:12
Jenna: "Hey."
Simone: "That's not a greeting, that's a pre-sext."
Jenna: "Learning. Learning about how to text Simone, or not."
I need Simone and Jenna in every single episode of Overboard.
My faves
this video should just be named ''Polygon crew giving me an stress ulcer by not realizing that hey is a very normal greeting''
Hey is a threat or bad news. Hey is not a normal greeting.
@@chronicuke3598 maybe to a horse
when addressing someone in passing, hey is fine (walking by, etc). when GREETING someone, like in a text or to start a conversation, hey always worries me. also, Jenna didn't say "hey!" or "hey," or even "hey" she said "hey." which is the worst greeting in existence. also, "hey, [insert name]" is very different than just "hey"
When I use “hey” to address someone I usually say “hey, man”. Just “hey” is a little weird.
”Hes a little hard on himself but he also doesnt have money” lmaooo
Pat’s whole “are you thirsty right now” greeting gave off STRONG “those new shoes?” vibes
Also, happy birthday Brian :)
Also also, why did I have the day Brian dies on my calendar but not his birthday?
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought that
I have Brian’s birthday on my calendar, because it’s also my birthday.
i think brian's "unless you smoke marijuana, then it won't be hard on anything" joke went criminally unrecognized
“That’s not a greeting, it’s a pre-sext.” SO powerful whew
Jenna: "I" refers to the self and, thus, is overrated.
Brian: I is so common that no one pays attention to it. It's gotta be underrated.
Patrick: c: *_alphabet song_* c:
"I" was searching for this comment. Thakyou
I love how NOBODY is consistently trying to get in the minds of each other, and have insisted on using pure logic, as if they don't know each other well enough to even try
i think simone but in an attempt
They’re definitely TRYING to a lot, they just keep failing
"you thirsty? are you--*thirsty* right now?"
I love Clayton and his editing so ding dang much.
He's so good
I love how Patrick and Brian have just switched styles for this episode
Weird greeting: “bienvenudos power bottoms!”
Ah, a man of culture.
u are my hero friend
“Pat you can’t use you’re muppet expertise to help them”
@@zerstreubar see his bloodborne episode
Plus he’s seen the “Muppets and Puppets Eating” live show a few times.
"When you have social anxiety any greeting is a weird greeting" PREACH
26:15 that satisfying af enunciation tho, Brian your theatre kid is showing
“I’ve been afraid of sharks in a swimming pool”
*GLASS SHARK*
“Unless you smoke Marijuana, then you wouldn’t be hard on anything” BRIAN I SWEAR-
I can't figure out if Overboard or Unraveled is my favorite Polygon thing, but I know that we need more Gill & Gilbert.
"ive had a fear of sharks in a swimming pool so"
glass shark glass shark glass shark
He love de fat kid, bettah swim fat kid
Glass shark love pat kid
Jenna: the most perfect mouthfeel would be-
Someone wiggling a laminated sheet of paper silencing her
If you're here from the Quiplash video, the "hey" reference is at 8:11.
The requirements for working at polygon really are having big bisexual vibes and being a cutie.
Emma Koslosky accurate. And somehow emitting Persephone vibes- floral goddess and queen of the underworld. Like adorable cinnamon roll and also will stab you
actually that seems super accurate
Polygon has cursed all the bisexuals by hiring all pretty employees
Ah, that's why Justin McElroy is no longer there. Not enough of both.
@@toanoradian False, he may not be bi, but he is a definitive cutie.
"An Old Man's Concern For a Young Man's Game" is a great title for a book
man i forgot how much i loved pat shout out to pat, the best boy
“I is the Midwest of the alphabet” I love that we live in a world where that makes sense
Pat's "Old man's concern for a young man's game" sounds faaaar too philosophical to be talking about Mountain Dew and sperm count
Pat talking about his ideal greeting is the biggest mood
“Are you saying art can’t suck”
Wow. WOW. Profound
"Oh, no, the light!" Brian when faced with his imminent journey to the afterlife.
raffitz nice try, we all know brian is incapable of death
Fun Fact: Iced Tea supposedly was created in 1904, meaning Brian was quite close.
I don’t know if you’re right or not, but just like Brian’s claim I am not going to call you on it
Brian was there when it was invented
In this essay I will-
“For me the most perfect mouth feel is-“ and we never heard the possibly inappropriate answer
Pat's energy in this has perfectly aligned with my energy in most situations
Also Simone's "I'm sorry I'm a Libra" perfecté
Pat’s hair? Actually... everyone’s hair?? Wow
Brian David Gorgeous
@@breadlast Simone de Rockin' It
jenna stealing-the-show
allegra frankly killing it
if my friend sent me "i'll kill you" as a greeting i would be significantly less scared than if they sent me "hey"
the only time anyone sends "hey" is when they're about to ask you something important or tell you something shitty
What if someone says I’ll kill you because you did smth shitty?
Yeah nah
i send hey regularly as a perfectly normal conversation starter, but y'know, i don't have your friend group, and i don't have the same subtle social rules you people have built up over the years
@@alyssa-vi4jt honestly i'd probably guess they're less angry about it than if they started it with like "we need to talk"
"i'll kill you" is so absurdist as a greeting that i'd assume i accidentally sent a crappy meme or smthn
"He's hard on himself but also he doesn't have money" is a mood
When Simone said "when there was one set of footprints in the sand" and the light came on, I thought it was the light of God emanating from Pat in post and not a tech problem
HOW DID YOU THINK HEY WASNT THE MOST NORMAL GREETING YOU ALIENS
The most normal would be "Hey, how are you?" or something like that.
Just "Hey" means "we have to talk, something is wrong or something is going on"
Because it can be an ominous greeting.
how the f is “hello” more normal? im-
@@Jehty_ Depends on inflection.
Hey, how are you? Can be just as weird.
@@Jehty_ i think that's mostly just with texting. if you see someone in real life, you're more likely to say something short
Pat Gill owns a piece of my heart, honestly
Pat, I have neither the skill, experience nor wit to put myself out there like you do. As a fellow social-anxiety victim, you resonate with me. I just want to remind you that you are funny and amazing and I love everything you do, especially when it's on Overboard.
Unrelated sidenote: Happy birthday, Brian David Gilbert.
16:34 always gets me, its so funny how almost halfway through the game pat still has no clue how to play it
The zoom-ins on Simone were amazing during her turn!
And Pat totally not getting the rules was hilarious
Also I'm surprised it took over 50 minutes (edited) for someone to make the wavelength joke
What I want to say is...this episode was absolutely amazing
I don’t know what himbo means but is “hard to sit on” a himbo move
absolutely
Himbo is a Male term for bimbo
not knowing what himbo means is a hard himbo move tbqh
it's a stupid buff man that drinks respect women juice exclusively
My mom literally texts me:
"Hey"
At least once a week and it's TERRIFYING every single time
BOTH of my parents will send me something and if I'm not replying within 20 seconds I'll get several "Hey"'s until I respond and it is the absolute worst.
The worst is when someone just texts "Hey." WITH a period
It gives such a feeling of foreboding
hey with no period is something i only see from dudes with big serial killer energy trying to hit on me, its a greeting used solely by madmen
My mom will send "hey" and leave me on "..." for several minutes while she types. I was finally forced to confront her and tell her to just greet me and ask/tell me what she needed to in a SINGLE text because my heart literally can't take that every day.
my mum likes to start all messages with "Hey [Ellis], can we talk?" and doesnt see why i freak out everytime
the chaotic energy of this episode is too much for the equipment to contain
Me, with social anxiety, saying 'Hey' as a greeting to everyone I've ever met: "I will never speak to anyone again. I will begin my life as a hermit. Goodbye society, it's been a bad time."
12:15 Earlier today I was watching a Twitch stream and in the chat we were all telling each other "good day." I wanted to mix it up a bit, so I swapped the first letters and wished everyone "dood gay," and then immediately realized what I had done as I hit the send button. So that is my answer to the weirdest greeting.
