When Laura sees this, she might be relieved. I've just got a text from her saying that she's not up for posting tonight, which leaves myself the only other person ready to do so. I told her that I was too tired to cover, but of course I cracked and here I am again.
On the other hand, Laura will probably be filled with dread when she sees the title of this post. You see, she owes me two punishments (plus that Green Day punishment I assigned awhile back), and today she'll have to face the music.
Laura, you've heard me talk about John Green incessantly. You will have read my posts where I gush about him (If not, those are three posts right there). Somewhere through all of this, you will have heard me talk about the Vlogbrothers.
For those uneducated brutes among you who don't know, one of the best YYoutube channels out there is called the Vlogbrothers. The two brothers in question, John and Hank Green, are professional awesome people. I should know. I probably watch two hours of YouTube a day, and the Vlogbrothers are still my favourite channel.
Out of all the successful channels on YouTube, the Vlogbros are probably the most active in the real world. They started Vidcon, helped create educational videos which are being shown in schools, and created the Project for Awesome which has donated over a million to charity. Most importantly, though, their videos encourage kindest and compassion in everyone. The Vlogbrothers are made of awesome.
Indeed, a large part of the reason I wanted to work on this blog with you was because it reminded me in some way of the Vlogbrothers. Heck, I even stole the "punishments" idea from them.
So, this isn't even a real punishment. Think of it as me giving you the gift of the Vlogbrothers. Now go forth, and watch...
How To Be a Nerdfighter (A good introductory video)
Nerdfighter Marriage Proposal (Question Tuesday introduction, and a cool video)
Book Eight (Hank Green on the scene with a song. Don't you dare diss his singing, even though I'm sure his technique sucks. This performance of the song was when he was at Carnegie hall, so...)
Perspective (More philosophical video)
Who I Was in High School (Similar)
North Korea Explained (They also explain shit)
Giving Away over $700 000
51 Jokes (in Four Minutes) (To end off on a funny note)
There, I think that'll be sufficient for now. If you haven't fallen in love with the Vlogbrothers yet, then... you have no soul. They're just such wonderful people.
I'll leave you in suspense as to what your next punishment will be!
Thanks for reading,
-Mark
Finished at 1:35 AM. I told you I was tired before, but I lied. Now I know what it's really like to be tired. Freaking links...
