Lower-confidence wave

2011 videos did not pass the QA gate (17 %); their analysis is shown but less reliable.

Before moving to the Netherlands for two months, John plays 'Google auto-fill once again proves that people are weird' with 'Is my b...' questions, joking through them while arguing that questions about a partner are not for Google: talk to your boyfriend.

00:02:12 — Baby boy or girl, cheating again, blood pressure ('good to be green'), baby sleeping too much

Humor (significant)

  • The top autocompleted questions men ask about their wives are whether they are cheating and what their tax status is. — 00:00:24 > «And people say men aren’t romantic, Hank.»
  • John says you want your blood pressure in the green or the yellow, not in the orange or the red. — 00:02:24 > «Yet another example, Hank, of why it’s good to be green.»
  • Answering 'Is my baby sleeping too much?', John first reassures parents that a baby eating and gaining weight is fine. — 00:02:34 > «Second off, don’t take this personally, but I hate you.»
