2008-03-27 · John · watch on YouTube · Nerdfighteria · comedy performance

John challenges Hank to a three-minute Peeps eating contest, asks Nerdfighters to suggest what the winner and loser should get, and eats 12 Peeps himself, regretting it.

What is said

00:00:00 — Too-tight gas-station sweatshirt; John's Peeps merchandise and the Peeps puzzle

  • ★ John's gas-station sweatshirt from Kentucky, bought because only mediums were left, is far too tight; he says he is not a medium. (playful) — 00:00:00
  • ★ John has lately come to own a lot of Peeps merchandise, such as a Peeps puzzle. (playful) — 00:00:00 · Peeps
  • ★ In the description John suggests the photo montage lets him go over the usual length (text cut off: 'go ove…'), i.e. past the four-minute rule. (playful) (hedged) — 00:00:00 · Four-minute rule

00:00:42 — Peeps from a Nerdfighter; John challenges Hank to a Peeps eating contest, rules, ask for prizes; eating begins

  • ★★ A Nerdfighter gave John the Peeps in South Carolina weeks ago; though some say not to eat Peeps after Easter, their expiration date is November 2009. (playful) — 00:00:42 · Peeps, Nerdfighteria
  • ★★★ Though Peeps hurt Hank's sensitive gut, John challenges him to a Peeps eating contest, the winner to get some magnificent prize. — 00:00:42 · Peeps
  • ★★★ John asks Nerdfighters to suggest in comments what the winner and/or loser of the contest should get. — 00:01:09 · Nerdfighteria
  • ★★ The contest has two rules: three minutes of Peeps eating, and no cheating. — 00:01:09 · Peeps
  • ★★ Since watching someone eat Peeps for three minutes is boring, John intercuts his eating with pictures of Nerdfighter awesomeness from the Ning. — 00:01:09 · Nerdfighter Ning, Nerdfighteria

00:03:57 — Result: 12 Peeps in three minutes; John feels awful; reminder to suggest prizes

  • ★★★ John ate 12 Peeps in three minutes, four of each kind, half a Peep fewer than a year ago, and nearly threw up 30 seconds in. — 00:03:57 · Peeps
  • ★★ John regrets it: he thought it would be funny but it just hurt, and he goes to lie down. — 00:05:06

Humor (dominant)

  • John, surrounded by Peeps merchandise, answers Hank's imagined question. — 00:00:00 > «I'm just, you know, chilling with my peeps.»
  • John's gas-station sweatshirt came only in medium. — 00:00:00 > «And as we've learned from the Haiku shirt, I am not a medium.»
  • John takes off the too-tight sweatshirt. — 00:00:00 > «I can't tell you how good it feels to be swimming again in the ocean of large.»
  • Some say not to eat Peeps after Easter because they might go bad, but Peeps are not milk. — 00:00:42 > «The expiration date on those Peeps that Nerdfighter gave me several weeks ago? November of 2009.»
  • John reports his count of 12 Peeps in three minutes. — 00:03:57 > «meaning that I'm actually half a peep less good at eating peeps than I was a year ago.»
  • John, in pain after the contest, reflects on the stunt. — 00:05:06 > «Why did I do that? I thought it was going to be so funny, but it just hurt.»
