John: punishment for not posting a video on Wednesday (May 2011)
punishment · status: changed, no report it was done (2011–2026) · last event: changed (2011-08-15) · owner: John
John skipped a Wednesday video in May 2011 as a birthday gift to Hank, earning a punishment from viewers. In June Hank proposed a video of more than 35 parts or gross sandwiches and John said he would eat 36 sandwiches, but illness and then his gallbladder removal ruled the sandwiches out, so in August a different punishment was to be picked from viewers' suggestions.
