2007-08-08 · Hank · watch on YouTube · Nerdfighteria · advocacy activism

Hank replays a clip to ask what John meant by 'all of that stuff' about his ex-girlfriends, reports that John's ActBlue page for Daniel Biss has passed 100 donations and $2,000, pushing John's punishment up, and asks for more donations toward the blenderized Happy Meal tier.

What is said

00:00:00 — Greeting with a kitty; Hank rolls a clip of John's last video to question 'all of that stuff'

  • ★★ Hank says he is sometimes leery of what is being cut out, felt so during John's last video, and rolls a clip of it. (playful) — 00:00:10

00:00:56 — Hank asks what John meant; John's ActBlue page has over 100 donations for over $2,000, skipping punishments: at least a limb waxed while breaking the Peeps record

  • ★★★ Replaying John's line about the radio pieces 'and all of that stuff', Hank says John seemed to continue the sentence and asks what he meant. (playful) — 00:00:56
  • ★★★ Hank reports that John's page on Daniel Biss's ActBlue profile has had over 100 donations for over $2,000. — 00:00:56 · Daniel Biss
  • ★★★ Hank says this skips a bunch of punishments: at the very least John must wax a limb of Hank's choosing 'while breaking the...' (Hank's sentence breaks off). (playful) — 00:00:56 · Punishment

00:01:41 — Hank's stutter and cuts; Biss's biggest traffic day, second only to John Edwards on ActBlue; 'the age of the Nerdfighter'

  • ★★ After stalling mid-sentence, Hank admits he stutters a lot and cuts probably 90% of what he records in a day. (playful) (hedged) — 00:01:41
  • ★★ Hank says Biss had his biggest traffic day ever yesterday and is now second on ActBlue only to 'a guy called John Edwards'. — 00:01:41 · Daniel Biss
  • ★★ Hank welcomes 'the age of the Nerdfighter', calling it very cool that Nerdfighters help each other and that Biss's campaign benefits so strongly from them. — 00:01:41 · Nerdfighteria, Daniel Biss

00:02:14 — Ask for about 96 more donations for the blenderized Happy Meal; who may donate; minors and foreigners in politics; Foundation to Decrease World Suck alternative

  • ★★★ Hank wants to see the blenderized Happy Meal, 96 donations away, and though unsure it can be done, asks nicely for more donations. — 00:02:14 · Happy Meal
  • ★★ Hank says donating is easy but requires at least a dollar, a credit card, US citizenship and being over 18. — 00:02:14 · United States
  • ★★ Hank says it really sucks that young people are excluded from the political process. — 00:02:14
  • ★★ Hank says he is kind of in favor of excluding citizens of other countries from the US political process, as that would be weird. (hedged) — 00:02:14
  • ★★ Hank says viewers can instead give 50 cents or a dollar to the Foundation to Decrease World Suck; it counts toward the total but does not go to Biss. — 00:02:14 · Foundation for Decreasing Suck Levels Worldwide

00:02:50 — Good luck at the conference; hi to yesterday's greeters; sign-off

  • ★ Hank wishes John luck at his conference and says more people said hi to him yesterday than ever before. (playful) — 00:02:50

Humor (significant)

  • Hank replays John's clip, pausing on a suspicious trailing-off. — 00:00:10 > «Did you catch it? Did you see what I was looking at there? Just look at it again.»
  • Hank gets stuck repeating 'while breaking the...'. — 00:01:41 > «And now you all know that I stutter a lot and cut probably 90% of what I record in a day.»
  • Biss is second on ActBlue only to 'a guy called John Edwards', a presidential candidate. — 00:01:41 > «Mmm, I feel like I've heard his name.»
  • Hank greets everyone who said hi to him in John's video. — 00:02:50 > «That was more people than have ever said hi to me before.»
