"Jack doesn't get noticed on nature walks because his hair is green and the trees are,
so when people see him he looks bald"
Yep these days whenever I go out on nature walks I have to be tethered
to somebody else when I'm walking around
I need a nature buddy because otherwise people are just gonna be like,
"Where did Jack go? He's invisible!!"
Luckily I'm super pale so I just shine like a beacon in the night so I never really get lost
"I hate pizza, is that bad?"
Everyone's a unique individual.
Everyone's beautiful in their own way...
*takes deep breath*
Some people are just REALLY FUCKING WRONG
[Strained tone] Yes, that's fine you can hate pizza if you want
"Jack if you think Ireland is boring why don't you move out"
what?
"Hey Jack I remember reading somewhere reading somewhere that you knew Korean.
I'm kinda trying to learn Japanese. Do you have any advice for those
who are trying to learn different languages?"
네, 한국말 조금 할 수 있어요 [Yeah, I can speak a bit of Korean]
*Laughter*
I know a small bit of Korean from awhile back
but not, not enough I was never really good enough to hold conversations I would just
Amalgamate words together to form sentences so
they were very clearly like if anybody who spoke Korean natively or fluently talked to me
they'd know a mile away that I had no idea what I was doing.
Umm but it was enough to try and pick up different things here and there but I do have some advice.
If you're trying to learn a language I'd say
try to learn a language that your really interested in.
Don't learn a language just because you think it's cool.
I mean you CAN, but it's much harder to learn it that way.
I think learning a language just for the sake of learning a language isn't really gonna stick with you
If you have a really strong interest in Japanese or any language that you're trying to learn
then it'll make it so much easier to actually focus on it because you want to.
Also, maybe in, like, engross yourself in different parts of media involving that language,
like I'll take Japanese as the example for what you're saying here.
If you're learning Japanese, a really great way to learn Japanese is to watch anime,
which sounds silly to a lot of people because it's all like that weeaboo culture there's a big stigma towards that
but it really does help to reinforce certain words when you here them over and over again
and sure people in real life don't speak like people in anime do
but it's enough to actually keep the language going in your head
because if you're just running a language from a textbook
or from audio tapes or something like that it's very hard to use it to practice it to put it into real applications
so...cause when I went to Korea I learned way more in the two weeks I was there each time
than I ever did when I was on my own at home
and then I would go back and I'd watch like "Running Man"
which is a poplar Korean like reality kind of show
and that really helped to just hear the words
and to hear the language because a lot of it a lot of trying to learn a language is about
Slang or different terms
that you say informally or formally
like the way people talk to each other is much different than the way you learn it
and also you pick up on body language and little little tiny things like that so
I don't know I'd say learn that you can hear a lot
because sitting down reading textbooks can only get you so far
"Jack are you a virgin?"
I actually was a virgin until today
and then I went to Ikea for the first time and changed everything
"What happened to your hat Jack?"
Nothing.
I just actually stopped wearing it I didn't want to wear it anymore.
It's right here though. I can put it on anytime I want
See?
Just like the old days again so I just- I just stopped wearing it
"Jack is such an innocent snowflake"
Now, hold on.
Snowflakes, sure everyone says they're innocent and everyone claims they do no harm, but...
Have you ever seen a murderer and a snowflake...
In the same place at the same time huh?
Think about it.
[Chuckle] Did I even think about that, did that even make sense?
"Think about it we're born from an dick"
Science's magical questions answered finally at last.
Ya hear that everyone?
We were born from an dick
[Stuttering] Pack it up science go home it's over we found it out
"Do you regret piercing your ears?
I had a friend who got those big loops and regretted them.
He did get them fixed though"
No, I don't regret piercing my ears
For anyone who doesn't know I had my ears pierced
Umm and then I had ten millimeter engages in them,
But when I took them out they never closed up and well I don't know if this true or not but somebody said to me
that if you go above eight millimeters they don't close up again
and if you stay at eight millimeters and then you take them out after awhile your ears will shrink down
and reseal I don't know how true that is
Umm so I went to ten anyway
I've had them out for years and years now and they've never closed up but I don't regret getting my ears pierced
Or like making them big or I didn't have them huge ten milliliters is like that it wasn't that big
So...
I don't regret actually getting them done.
Umm, if anything this acts as like a cool little reminder,
that I had them done at one point - and I liked them when they were in
They suited me and they were they were cool and
Sure, I could say that it was part of a phase because I was into heavy metal and all that kind of stuff but
I really liked them when they were in I just took them out because I think I kinda grew out of them
even though they still suit me but
I don't know
I like having them in
I don't regret anything about that. I do feel for the people though who get them like huge
and then they have to take them out later because they realize
"oh that was a mistake"
Umm...
But people are different
"Why is your mustache a different color from your beard?
Or can you even call that a beard?"
[Chuckling] Oh shit.
I'm being called out real as fuck right now
Do you hear that shade?
Do you see it,
do you smell it?
What's that? [Sniffs]
What's that smell?
That's the smell of shade and comedy right there
Um...
I don't fucking know. Ask the pigments in my skin why it makes certain parts of my face different colors
I don't kn- hello can can you answer that?
"Hey Jack is it still weird to talk to a camera?
Because it can't talk back"
No it's not weird.
It was only weird for like the first month
when I started doing it cause you start realizing the mannerisms that you didn't know you did
I would sit there and I'd record and then I'd say certain things or I'd act a certain way I'd see my face
more than I ever had before from a different perspective
from like a third-person perspective so it was a little strange then but these days it's completely natural
I'm absolutely natural around cameras now and it's weird because my mind goes to
a strange place when I'm talking to the camera because I don't feel like I'm actually talking to a camera
it in a weird way it actually feels like I'm talking to people talking to you guys that sounds silly
but if you actually do this kind of thing
you'd understand what I'm talking about you never-
It's like you don't feel alone you actually feel like there's somebody else here in the camera
and I also have like Robin edits a lot of the videos as well so when I'm talking
and then something needs to happen
or a certain edit needs to happen sometimes I'll say it to the camera because
I need him to know what I want in the videos
So
it it never feels like I'm actually alone here recording anymore
which is really cool because if
if it was weird talking to cameras I think I'd be very wooden I'd be very
I'd be I wouldn't be very dynamic anymore
and I really like that because it actually feel like people are here watching listening playing along with me
and that that adds for a lot more spontaneity and a lot more dynamism
what's your opinion on drawing on yourself with pen?
I mean if you wake up some day
and you're in the mood to draw you you need to write down something
and there's no paper around or your phones out of battery or something like that
I mean skin is a great canvas you can draw on your skin and that shit will stay for a long time so
go out there draw all over yourself if you really want too it's cool
"Is he getting mature?"
lots of emojis
"probably not"
Hey come on now, I'm mature
I'm mature when I need to be
I mean I did move into a new house and I moved country and there's a lot of stuff going on
behind the scenes that people don't see that need very very adult and very strong business decisions go on
all the time that people don't see because I mean why would you need to?
That stuff...
There's a lot of personal stuff that I'm very mature about
and I'm very very mature when I need to when serious stuff is happening
but I mean in my videos a lot of silly stuff goes on
I play video games and I yell at them
and a lot of crazy shit can happen in those video game so I don't really need to be that mature in them
but, on the other hand,
there are games that I've played where I've been very mature with
Like playing something like that dragon cancer or the beginner's guide
or presentable liberty
Games like that I I was very...
Umm I was very mature about them

"Jack, don't get a fidget spinner"
I swear
as long as I live I will never get a fidget spinner
You have my word on that
that fidget spinners will never be a thing around me
Don't worry I have your best interests at heart but fidget spin-
"How do you maintain 'the positive'?"
Maintaining positivity doesn't have to be this like huge goal that you have to do
Maintaining positivity...
is basically boiled down into small moments
that a lot of people want to be positive in their lives
or a lot of people want to be positive in their day or in their job and these are like
very big continuous things but if you try and be positive in the moment-to-moment
aspects of your life
If I'm doing something- if I'm recording a video
an hour or so- twenty minutes to an hour...
whatever it is that I have to record
that's one small little positive moment in my day
and then the next recording is another small little positive moment in my day-
well hopefully, hopefully nothing goes wrong pisses me off
Umm and then going out
and doing different things in my life
those are little positive moments in my day so it's all about breaking up...
your routine and getting the most out of each aspect of your life
And yes it sounds hippy dippy and it sounds cliché
but but it really works
I think or at least for me it does because
well first off I should disclaim that you don't have to be positive all the time
That's a completely ridiculous goal to try and achieve to be positive
all the time.
Maintaining positivity and trying to get the best out of
your situation so that's that's a bit of a different scenario
but you are allowed to not be positive sometimes.
You are allowed to get pissed off
You are allowed to get angry. I don't like getting angry, buts sometimes it happens- big dif
We're all human and flaws come out every now and then
But if you want to be positive in your day...
If you wanna be positive in your life and in your job try and celebrate the little things
If you do something...
that's just like nothing, if you write down your to-do-list for the day celebrate that
be happy in what you do be proud of the little things that you do each day
I think
And I mean there's a million different ways that you can tackle it this is just one little tiny way..
that I like to try and maintain positivity in my day-to-day life-
I could talk all day about this, I could give lots of different bits of advice
but I don't know
You just kinda have to go out there and just do it. You have to go out there and grab life
while you can
Go out there and make the most of the time that you have
Cuz you only get one trip around this big wheel of life
you don't you don't get a do-over
You don't get to wait around for the good things to happen
You have to make the good things for yourself happen now
You have to try and be as happy as you can be
In the scenario that you're in.
It's not always possible, some people find it very very very hard to be happy, some people
are in completely terrible and rough dire situations
and I very much sympathize with that and that's again there's a lot more nuance to this
It's not just as simple as being go out there and be happy
there's a lot more to life than just being positive
but if I can motivate or give people some sort of semblance of advice
towards that kind of aspect then I will try my best
but just know it's ok if you're not positive all the time
it it just means that you're human. [Laughter]
"Sean says: I have so much energy!
Me: is that even possible?"
Never underestimate the power in a change of environment
It does absolute wonders to reinvigorate you mind, body, soul whatever
it really just motivates you to do more atleast for me it did
Move- moving here
and getting this new office and getting everything set up was super exciting
and it was a really cool challenge to be able to do it
I'm surrounded by a much more creative atmosphere and environment I think living here
so for me it's just it completely blew my mind out how
how much more I can do here
and it's just like a new thing to tackle,
a new challenge to tackle
Cuz when you do the same thing over and over and over again like uploading videos the same
Umm types of videos over and over again the same environment the same house the same place
it can get in your head a small bit
without you even knowing because complacency sets in and then you start getting
well I wouldn't say bored of what you do you kinda start taking it for granted you do things by the numbers
no matter how much you might love it that stuff can still set in
because it's a it's a routine it's a schedule so coming here and tackling this
and doing all new things
really boosts the mind
It really gets the juices flowing again
and sure the same kind of thing could happen here if I'm here for four or five years again
but that's when change has to happen again
So don't- don't look down on people who like change don't look down on people
who want change
and I know it's scary
and I know a lot of people seeing me come here and seeing change of environment
is very scary for them because you get very comfortable with what you know
and seeing me in a similar environment every single day
and then for that to suddenly change feels like you get the rug pulled out from underneath you
Umm almost like your safety blanket is gone because somethin that you look to
that was very consistent and very reliable it's suddenly different and it kinda creates a sense of instability in you
but please bear in mind that change is necessary change is for me is good
because it gives me far more like fire in my belly just we ignite that spark to get stuff done again
and in my mind that means for better content
It means for better videos at least happier content where I'm not stressed out I'm not...
sitting here doing things by the numbers I feel like I'm actually...
like getting back into my mojo again which I really feel like I am
since I've moved here it's been an incredible boost in my self esteem and my motivation and my inspiration so
Please- please keep that in mind as well
Change can be scary, but change can also be absolutely fantastic
and I-I'm still here I'm still the same person so that's not gonna change so use me as the reliable source
and ignore the background the background is supplementary. The content, the games
whatever I do and the personality is still the same
That's still here
"Your ears have holes"
Yeah they do
Most people's ears have holes
It's how most people actually listen to things let me ask you something
can you hear what I'm saying right now.
Your ears have holes too
"Your old neighbors are probably like
'oh yess! our prayers have been answered we sleep well tonight'" [chuckling]
yeah I was actually
it was weird. Moving out, I was super excited for my neighbors
because living in an apartment where you share walls even if they're concrete
thick walls you can still hear stuff
you can still hear people walking up and down the stairs
and, we could even hear T.V.'s next door if they were up loud enough
and you can hear people if somebody shouts
like if people had guests over if they were drinking or something you could still here that
so me recording people could definitely hear that if they were in the rooms next door and granted,
I did record mainly during work hours when
most people would probably be out of the house going to their jobs
but at the same time whenever I did have to record when people were around
they were probably getting very annoyed with it so I was very happy for my neighbors when I was moving out
ok well that does it for this episode of reading you comments. Note-to-self don't
wash and dry your hair right before you record this
fucking staticky shit
umm this was a good episode
I feel like we got some real talks in there
That was fun and I'm glad about that one that was a lot of fun to record
(laughter) onwards and upwards
let's keep going more reading comments hundred and thousand more episodes but for now
THANK YOU GUYS so much for watching this one IF YOU LIKED IT, PUNCH THAT LIKE BUTTON IN THE FACE
LIKE A BOSS and,
high fives all round
[High five sound effects]
THANK YOU GUYS AND I WILL SEE ALL YOU DUDES...
