Brotherhood 2.0: Eating Toilet Paper

2007-01-04 · John · watch on YouTube · Nerdfighteria · comedy performance

Answering Hank's call to list their differences, John says Hank lives by his values and he does not (late recycling, not voting in 2000); he then attempts his own toilet-paper-and-Nepal challenge himself and gives up.

What is said

00:00:00 — On Little Pisgah Mountain ('movie magic'); continuing the list of differences: Hank lives by his values, John recycled only after An Inconvenient Truth and did not vote in 2000; different happy dances

  • ★ John says he is on top of Little Pisgah Mountain in North Carolina, then admits the footage was recorded the day before ('movie magic'). (playful) — 00:00:00
  • ★★★ Continuing Hank's list of differences, John says Hank is excellent at living in line with his values while John is not. (hedged) — 00:00:00 · Hank Green, John Green
  • ★★ As an example, John says he did not recycle until he watched An Inconvenient Truth and is still somewhat iffy on it. (hedged) — 00:00:00
  • ★★ John says he did not vote in 2000 even though he could have voted in Florida, and comically blames himself for George Bush. (playful) — 00:00:40 · United States presidential election, Florida, George W. Bush
  • ★ John adds that the brothers have vastly different happy dances. (playful) — 00:00:40 · Happy dance

00:01:11 — Hank ignored the challenge, so John attempts to eat five sheets of toilet paper while discussing the political situation in Nepal, and gives up

  • ★★★ John notes Hank ignored his toilet-paper-and-Nepal challenge in his last video and says that if Hank will not do it, he will. (playful) — 00:01:11
  • ★ Mid-challenge, John says rebels (ASR 'malice rebels') control more than half of Nepal. (playful) — 00:01:11
  • ★★ John attempts the challenge, then gives up ('I can't do it, Hank'), blaming the toilet paper being two-ply. (playful) (hedged) — 00:01:44

00:02:05 — A Brotherhood 2.0 viewer's baby; idea of letting the viewer pick a project or challenge as a baby present

  • ★★ John announces a Brotherhood 2.0 viewer's wife has had a baby after 32 hours of labor and suggests letting the viewer pick a project or challenge for the brothers as a present. (hedged) — 00:02:05 · Brotherhood 2.0

Humor (significant)

  • John says he is on top of Little Pisgah Mountain, then admits it was recorded the day before. — 00:00:00 > «I believe that's what they call movie magic.»
  • John admits he did not vote in 2000 although he could have voted in Florida. — 00:00:40 > «Ah, George Bush, it's all my fault! God, I'm so stupid!»
  • Mid-challenge, mouth full of toilet paper, John gives up on discussing Nepal. — 00:01:44 > «I think this stuff is two-ply, too.»
