J: Hey guys! R: Hi!
J: So our supporters on Patreon pick a tag or challenge for us to do and this time we are going to do 50 facts about us.
R: Yesss! 25 for me and 25 for Jun. J: Yep.
R: Not 50 each cause that will be a really long video J: We're cheating
J: Yeah. Nope.
R: Let's get to it!
J: Alright!
R: So I have hitchhiker's thumbs
which is the thumb that bends up like this
You can see, compared to Jun, mine like, goes upward
and just some people have that. That's how mine is.
And my toes do this too! My big toes
not like this much but a little bit and
so I can't wear flats because the toes are too narrow
and it will like, press down on my nail
and my toe and it's really painful!
J: I get red hair sometimes
Its not as red as Rachel's but it's pretty red
R: A strand here and there.
I think most people get like, random coloured hair every now and then.
I get a lot of white hairs in my head.
(Jun: Is that normal?) and I have had a black hair. Really? Yeah!
J: You get black hair? R: Yeah!
R: I still sleep with my baby blanket. I got it the day I was born from my grandma
and my brothers and sister got one too
and I'm pretty sure my brothers still have theirs.
If they say the don't, they're lying.
J: I like playing baseball, and I used to be a pitcher
R: How far can you throw a ball?
J: When I was in junior high school we had throwing a ball test
and um I throwed a ball about 95 meters?
R: 95 meters... okay
J: When I was in junior high school.
R: How fast?
J: 130 km/h that was my record
And I was in highschool
It was not freaking fast but it was okay.
R: Oh, I don't know anything about baseball so these numbers are meaningless to me.
R: My favorite song of all time is "Black" by Pearl Jam.
I just think it's really pretty, I like the lyrics to it and
You can hear Eddie Vedder's emotion when he sings.
so I really like that song.
And my favorite album of all time is "The Distance to Here" by Live.
It's kinda like hippie love rock music.
I probably listen to it five thousand billion billion times
J: I always listen to "Sail" by AWOLNATION when I cook. Like all the time.
R: Why is. . . How did that become your cooking song?
J: It's just. . .I don't know.
It makes me happy to cook.
R: That's like the most random song to listen to when you cook.
R: I drove the same car for eleven years in America and it was already
used when I got it. And so eventually,
pretty much everything on it broke.
There were two different points where the inside
door handle like actually just ripped off
or broke in half cause it was a piece of junk
plastic door handle.
And to get out of my car, I would have to climb over to the
passenger side and get out that way.
And that's how I lived for several months of my life.
That's. . . that's. . . that's my life.
Uh, yeah. That's how I lived.
J: My dream when I was a kid was to work at a flower shop.
R: You're such a shoujo manga character.
R: I really do not like winter. I don't like being cold.
I don't like that everything is dead.
I'm like a lizard. And so, I just get really
slow and like I just sleep the entire winter
I can't do anything until the sunlight comes back and
warm up and then the trees they start spreading their leaves
and everything is happy and sunny and warm again.
That's what I need.
We need to move somewhere in the future that has no winter ever because
(shakes head) I can't do winters. They make me so depressed.
J: Kay.
J: I have never study abroad, YET.
R: I have a scar on my nose, I can't remember
which side it's on and I'm wearing makeup now so you
can't see it anyway
But when I was young, we were setting up for a
garage sale and we had a table
um, outside the back of our house
that was like leaning up against the house and
a wasp built a nest there
And I had to get the table, it's my job
to get the table and set it up. And so I thought
"I gotta kill this wasp!" And I got a fly swatter
And I was like,
I only got one shot but I can get it!
I CAN GET THIS WASP.
And I hit that wasp DEAD CENTER with the flyswatter
with everything that little noodle-arm Rachel had.
But noodle-arm Rachel was not strong enough to kill the wasp.
I just angered it A LOT
And then like, it came straight at my face
And I was like "NOOOOO!"
And it stung me on my nose and my face swollen
up like this. I was like a monster.
It was horrible. That was a bad experience
Do not recommend. 0 out of 10
Do not get stung by wasp in the face.
J: I am obsessed with plants.
We have like 30? 40? vases of plants.
R: We have a lot of plants here, I like plants too
So it's good. I'd be totally cool
if our apartment just became like a jungle
And I just had to like, crawl and you know like,
get a machete and like cut my way through
just to get into the apartment. I'd be down with that
I'm totally good. J: I don't want a jungle
R: My favorite color is green because
it reminds me of trees, and nature
and forest, and I love all
those things
I hate autumn,
because I know it's supposed to be beautiful
Everyone loves leaves changing color but to me
it's just like everything is dying and it's very
sad and depressing for me
I'm totally kind of like a hippie forest
nature person, and
if I could live in a tree house, I TOTALLY WOULD
That would be amazing!
J: Maybe you should live with Grace.
R: Me and Grace are going to live in a tree house in the future.
Out in the middle of the woods. We'll just be hikkikomori (hermits).
J: I can balance an umbrella
on another umbrella
R: It's pretty impressive J: How awesome is that!
R: I'm not gonna lie, I was impressed
J: I wasn't gonna say this but Rachel insists, so...
I had to say it R: No, I was
helping you come up with 25 things
because you couldn't think of anything J: Because I'm such
a boring person!
R: You can balance an umbrella on another umbrella,
that's pretty cool! That's not boring at all!
You should show people
R: I used to draw a lot
I've always been a super artsy person
And that's one of the reasons we do YouTube now since it's all kinds of artsy-stuff.
And I almost went to an art school
instead of a regular university, but
I kinda decided I didn't want to at
the last moment because I don't
like drawing when I'm forced to draw and
I kinda lost interest it in, to be honest
I haven't done anything in a really long
time. The last time I drew anything
was 5 years ago, I drew a
lion picture for Jun, J: That was pretty good
R: based off of a
picture from the internet and
That was fun
but I don't know if I'll ever draw anything again.
I'll see if I can find it. I'll upload it here.
J: When I was working in a convenient store, I hit
a burglar with a paintball, it's like this big
it's orange. I threw a paintball and
I hit him but he escaped anyway
R: Where... Where do you get a paintball?
Like a giant ball
of paint? J: Yeah, some convenient stores
J: have those paintballs like
J: underneath the counter R: OHHH! So it's not
R: on sale in the store J: No no no
R: I was wondering like why, why do people need
giant paintballs? So they keep it
to tag people who steal things? J: Yeah yeah yeah
R: DON'T STEAL SOMETHING FROM JAPAN!! They'll like
hit you with a paintball! I didn't know about that
Not that I ever planned
on stealing anything, but J: Yup
R: Wow, okay. So you hit them and
J: But he escaped. It was at night
R: Ahhh J: So
R: So he probably just go home J: Yeah, with the orange shoulder
R: Ah, well hopefully you at least
ruined his clothes. The jerk,
stealing stuffs
Stop stealing stuffs! Don't steal!
R: I'm house Gryffindor.
And there's not even a question about it. I would
totally be house Gryffindor. J: Um, I also took this
Harry Potter test, and I was
Ravenclaw? For like,
91%? R: Yeah
R: I've never had a speeding ticket in my life
J: WOW! R: Maybe this isn't super
exciting for people from some countries
but America is really big, and people
drive a lot
And people drive fast
Like, everyone in my family's had speeding ticket
in some point or another
I've driven a total of about 75,000
miles, which is like 120,000
kilometers,
over 11 years in America
and never had a speeding ticket~
R: I guess that's not a thing to brag about "I broke the law
and I never get caught". Everyone speeds in America
J: I understand though, R: People get
R: mad at you, it depends on the area
but if you're not speeding in some areas
people get mad at you, it's normally over 5 to 10 over
on express way, so J: Right, right, I get it
J: I've been hit by a car 5 times
when I was a kid, when I was riding a bike
R: And he got his foot ran over by a car
AND IT JUST DROVE OFF!!
A CAR RAN OVER A CHILD
AND THEY DROVE OFF! Do you know how
OH MY GOD, do you know how angry I am?
Someone did that to my brother, they rode him off the road
in America too and he like, ran
into a tree.
He could have died and they just *** zoomed
I'm so angry about this, like hit and run
People, I swear...
Don't even. I would, I would
R: I used to get something called sleep
paralysis a lot when I was younger, now
I only get about like once a year.
But it's this thing where when your body is falling asleep
or waking up, your body
stays asleep and your mind wakes up suddenly
and if you didn't know, while you're asleep
your body paralysis itself so
you don't like, act out your dreams and hurt yourself or
something. And so you would wake up and
you would be awake, but your body is
still paralysed and you can't move at all
and it's pretty terrifying and for some
reason, a lot of people who get
this have really vivid
hallucinations, cause it's like
your mind just kinda projects your
dreams into
real life? But they're
almost always nightmares! I don't know
why, but this is just how it is
and I always had this like nightmare
hallucinations with it and it was FREAKING
TERRIFYING!! I've had like, ghosts like
flying at my face or like
ominous dark clouds swirling over my
head, and URGH, like
why is this a thing? Why does this even
exist? But um,
now I only get it like once a year and
I just don't open my eyes because
I'm afraid I'll see something scary
J: The scariest dream I've had
was where, there's no ghosts or killing
or murder or anything, I just
could not wake up! I just keep feeling
waking up,
I notice that um, I was having a
dream, um but I also remember
that I need to wake up early for work
so I tried to wake up. So I went to bed
in my dream and I woke up in my dream again
and I was like "shit..." so,
I tried to.... just keep
waking up but I couldn't
And it's like Inception,
the movie? R: Mhmm J: Uh, I felt like I
was literally spending 6 hours in my
dream and I was so scared. But then,
suddenly Rachel, in real life,
shook me and woke me up
She saved my life!
R: Jun had a lot of nightmares, poor Jun :(
J: I don't know why
R: I wake him up a lot
J: Yeah R: I memorized the Poke-rap
when I was in the sixth grade. And I
used to go around and sing it to people
whether they wanted me to or not
J: Can you still sing? R: Electrode,
R: Diglett, Nidoran, Mankey
Venusaur, Rattata, Fearow, Pidgey
R: Seaking, Jolteon, Dragonite, Gastly J: What's, what's an electrode?
R: Ponyta, Vaporeon, Poliwrath, Butterfree J: Can you pause?
R: Catch 'em, catch 'em, gotta catch 'em all
R: Pokemon!
J: Next! R: Across the land.....
J: My favorite animes are
"Ghost in the Shell" and "Ping Pong"
J: Yeah, it's table tennis R: Isn't that also the sound
R: you make when you ring the doorbell? J: Yeah, yeah R: Ping Pong~
R: Is it exactly the same?
R: I collect the dragon statues when I was
in high school because dragons are awesome!
And... Obviously
I didn't bring them here to Japan
because like, I'm not gonna pack like giant
dragon statues in my luggage, like
"I gotta bring my dragon statues with me!"
I mean okay to like grew up and leave
my dragon statues behind
I left them with my mom and my mom also
has a lot of dragon stuffs and so she put it
all in her dragon room
She's got a lot of dragon stuffs J: That's interesting
J: A lot of the girls have like
stuffed animals, you had dragons instead of bears R: I love
R: stuffed animals too! I have a lot of stuffed animals J: Okay
R: And I had dragons
