S: Ah, do you smell that? H: Nope
S: Take a deep breath H: What?
S: Ah, love is in the air H: Oh my god
S: I think it's love that I smell? You were just in the bathroom though
H: Oh my god S: [laughs]
S: Alexa, play our theme song
[theme song music] Hello, hello, welcome to the show, welcome to the show
Welcome to the show, it's time to talk about our lives [Chloe bark]
S: Hi everyone, today we are talking about the secret ways that I make Hannah smile
H: Mm-hmm
S: These are the cheesiest, most embarrassing
S: Like actual secrets of our relationship, but we want to share them with you
H: They're so embarrassing
S: A few of them we are not even sure if we're going to tell you
H: Yeah
S: Like we're arguing about whether or not we should share it
S: The first one you're gonna love [laughs] I'm gonna just demonstrate...
S: Sorry, I didn't tell you this, um, this is a little method that I've
S: Developed over the years that makes Hannah smile
S: Without a doubt, every single time H: Good luck
S: We can be in the middle of an argument, if I do this one thing she always laughs
S: Which is my favorite thing ever
S: Three, two, one...
S: [makes weird noise] H: [laughs]
H: The countdown built it up, I almost laughed without you even doing anything
H: I laugh easily, and strange sounds always get me
Alexa: From Shane, hi babe, you know that noise I always make, the one that makes
A: You laugh every time, wait for it, wait for it [makes weird noise]
S: Somewhere along the way I discovered that just making a little [weird noise]
S: Completely--look! H: Sometimes you'll go like [weird noise]
H: [laughs] I like that one S: But its the best way to end an argument
S: Because all I have to do is make a little noise and I'm instantly forgiven
S: Alright, so we have a few other methods that we're gonna explain
S: Even weirder than that one
S: But first we want to quickly thank our sponsor of this video
S: Dear Squirmy, there is no-one on this planet that makes me happier than you
S: There is no greater joy than making you smile, there is nothing more special
S: To me than going through life by your side, I love you with all of my heart
S: Alexa, turn on Hannah's teapot
S: Alexa, set a reminder A: What's the reminder for?
A: Here's a reminder: Shane loves you so much
S: Alexa, buy chocolate covered pretzels A: One moment
A: Showing results for chocolate covered pretzels
H: Shane, what is this?
A: From Shane: roses are red, violets are blue, remember when I toppled off
A: The icy ramp? Then I miraculously lived because of you?
H: [laughs]
H: In this video, you're going to see a lot of really embarrassing weird sides
H: Of us that I don't think people would assume existed
S: No, people often comment like, when we're off camera we must be laughing
S: All the time, and that's extremely true
S: That's like a foundation of our relationship
H: Yes S: But I don't think the level of discourse
S: Is quite what you would imagine H: [laughs]
S: Or maybe it is, maybe it's exactly what you'd imagine
S: So first let's talk about my characters
H: [laughs] People are gonna be like, what the heck
H: Shane does these voices, and I guess they developed into full characters
H: That I love S: I think we need to give an example
H: Yeah, I'm sure they're all like uhhhh, but it's not cringey don't worry
S: Well it might be, it absolutely is H: I love them
S: We have normalized it in our relationship
S: I think all relationships have those little inside weird jokes
S: That only make sense to you and your partner
H: Yeah
S: That you don't ever think about how weird they are because you never share
S: Them with people outside the relationship, we are now explaining
S: Our weird little intricacies to like a million people
H: That it's very weird S: So we're realizing how weird it is
H: But I also do a whiny baby voice when I'm tired
S: Yeah H: But people do that normally
S: Yeah, yeah H: They'll be like oh, I don't want to get up
S: This is a step above that H: This is a step above that
H: So why don't you explain
S: Do you have a favorite character that you want to talk about?
H: Yeah, can you give an example, can you be Pilot?
H: Can you do the pilot character? S: See, she's already smiling
H: [laughs] S: Yes, so--
H: This one only happens in the morning after Shane has woken up
S: Pilot character began one day when Hannah rolled me onto my back
S: Like when we woke up, I asked for two pillows under my head
S: And for whatever reason she picked really large pillows
S: And it really elevated me to the point that I was like
H: You were like almost sitting S: Almost sitting
S: And my mind created this pilot character, I don't know why
H: You just started, well I put the pillows under you and you went
H: 'Ladies and gentlemen' S: And Hannah lost it
H: I almost died S: So I, just to be silly
S: Did this fake pilot announcement to this plane full of people
H: Yeah, I was the plane S: But I made his announcement extremely grim
H: It wasn't grim at the beginning it was a normal pilot the first day
H: Like, 'ladies and gentlemen, we're ready for takeoff, please take your seat'
H: And then the next day it was like, we're expecting turbulence
H: And then the next day it was like, we've hit a bird
H: It was like, the plane's going down [laughs]
H: It got worse and worse each day and then this character turned into, like,
H: Just the worst person S: A full fledged terrible person
H: Yeah
S: He begins the morning whenever Hannah rolls me
S: by making announcements about the day
H: [laughs] S: I'll just do one, ready?
S: Ladies and gentlemen, I am sad to report that we've lost both of our wings
S: I was responsible for checking the maintenance
H: [laughing] S: Of the infrastructure of the airplane
S: And as you know I've been dealing with some issues in my own life lately
S: So I was not able to check the securement of the wings
S: We radioed the tower and they have confirmed that there is nowhere
S: For us to land, nowhere for us to even crash land
S: Thank you for flying with us H: I'm gonna cry, oh my god
A: From Shane, ladies and gentlemen, this is your pilot speaking
A: Last night, I received news that my pilot's license has been
A: Permanently revoked
H: I'm like crying
S: So every day I make up more fantastical, often it's not even about the plane
H: [laughs] No, it's his personal life S: I'll go into his backstory
S: There is a subplot of the pilot's life that he's searching
H: He's looking for his son S: Searching for his son
S: But he's having a hard time because he has to fly
S: Five back and forth flights to Detroit from Minneapolis every day
S: So he doesn't have a lot of time to look H: [laughs] Oh my god
H: People are probably not laughing, like it's not funny, I get that it's not funny
H: It's just funny for me, and Shane does this, if you heard it every day
H: It would be funny for you too, but Shane does this character only because he knows
H: That I am obsessed with it S: Um, so that's weird
H: Yeah
S: I have a few other characters that I'm not going to go into
S: Because they're all varying degrees of awful
H: They're all like terrible
S: One of them is my arch enemy, who I think I've mentioned him on here before
S: His name is Shaun Enemy
H: Well is it an arch enemy or like an alter ego?
S: It's kind of both, like it changes, he's an awful person as well
S: I slip into him every now and then, he's only eight inches tall
S: Which is kind of the defining feature of Shaun Enemy
S: So he gets up on his shift pretty often
H: [laughs] Oh my god
S: Okay, so, I make characters, I make weird noises, like at the beginning
S: We could talk about something a little bit more normal
H: Yeah, I think something that Shane has always done is sent me
H: Like little tokens when we were long distance, and that's actually continued
H: Into now that we're living together, sometimes I'll just receive a package
H: At our doorstep and it's something that he's ordered to surprise me
S: Or whenever we order takeout, I make it my goal to add on an item
H: Yeah S: That Hannah doesn't know about
S: Usually a dessert H: But sometimes it's a side dish
H: Or a kids meal that you know I'll like, like the little mini corn dogs
S: And like, buying gifts for your partner is not mind-blowing relationship advice
H: Yeah
S: But I do think that a little reminder here and there that like,
S: I was randomly thinking of her and wanted to surprise her
H: Yeah S: Is something that I enjoy doing
H: We could talk about the blowing kisses over Facetime
S: Oh, let's say about how we do it in person
H: Are we gonna do the biting thing? S: Yeah
H: Shane, this is so embarrassing S: Come on
H: Okay, we just had an off-camera discussion and I have been convinced
H: To allow this next part to be shared S: Okay, this is a fun one we'll share
S: And this is another really weird little thing that we do
H: Mm-hmm
S: We've been doing it for pretty much all of our relationship
H: It started over Facetime S: Yeah
S: We're just gonna do it, so this happens from across the room usually
S: Or over Facetime H: Yeah
S: Or when we're just like, having a regular day
S: And one of us wants to make the other smile
H: Uh huh
S: It is a ritual, a virtual air kiss H: Yes
S: Maybe we should just show them H: Yeah, go ahead
S: Yeah, this is what we do H: Mm-hmm
S: So I'll be working, and I'll look up to Hannah, and she'll look at me
S: And I go [blows kiss]
H: I bite the kiss out of the air, and then I go [blows kiss]
S: [inhales]
H: He always pretends that it tastes bad
S: I pretend to swallow it and it doesn't taste very good
S: And without a doubt H: It's like five years of that
S: It makes us both laugh, and we do it probably once a day
H: Yeah S: Which is also weird
S: I'm feeling really insecure after sharing all of this
H: I know, it's stuff that we enjoy doing, it's like cute little things
S: Yeah, as you've seen most of them are really simple and small
S: Like just making a [weird noise] but with these little secret 'I love you' things
H: Yeah S: We're able to make each other laugh
S: And smile all day long, I mean I could make Hannah laugh
H: Yeah S: All day, just going [weird noise]
H: It's because you always do it slightly differently and it's always so weird
S: So, now you know that weird, weird fact about our relationship
H: Yeah
S: And now you can properly imagine what we're like when the camera's not on us
H: Uh-huh, alright, thank you for watching our video
H: Please be kind in your assessment of our strange relationship habits
S: Oh, you should let us know what weird things you do
H: Yeah, make us feel better
S: Tell us like, the weirdest little 'I love you' thing that you do with
S: Your partner H: Yeah. Bye!
S: Did you have a good day? H: Uh huh
S: Yeah? H: Yeah
S: I love you so much H: I love you
H: Alexa, turn out the lights [laugh]
[Kiss]
