I glanced through the wiki first and didn't see it, although I could have missed it. I wasn't particularly thorough.

Honestly, I havent much liked the couple recent videos. This one was great though, loved the Clockwork Orange, loved the re-occurence of the Sam Raimi that you've kept up, loved the genuine innovation.

Hell, I didnt even laugh; I just enjoyed it. Sometimes thats better.

The biggest laugh for me came right at the beginning with the Paranoia bit. Overall, I loved it, but I wish the Paranoia had come a little later in the edit.

Ya'll weren't kidding about the TVTropes thing, I went to the site at 2:30PM and lookedup at Midnight, realizing I had just wasted an entire day (no joke!)


Nice video as always!

Aaah, but it wasn't just Paul by the end of the video. I rather like the way that he roped all the others in to keep himself awake, and now they're having trouble themselves.

What I don't want right now is to stay awake. You guys need to do ways to fall asleep. That's the one that would be useful right now.

So here I am about to watch the video because I'm bored, and tired, and want something to do. the video doesn't load, so I switch tabs. THEN! Out of FRIGGIN NOWHERE, Tim does his battle roar. I had my head phone up all the way, with no sound pouring out. I think now know what it means to jump out of your skin.

The wikipedia loop is probably the absolute best eugeroic next to medication. I can't count how many times I've drifted across those pages in an insomniac stupor.

What about math?

How strange, for most it's the complete opposite.

Personally I really don't like math but it actually has no impact on my waking state.

Paul's acting was simply suberb in this video.

Caffeinate: hilarious.

Oh, and best Sam Raimi in quite a while.

Being from Australia I tend to wait up for these things... I know I'm responding a week late but seriously! This video probably the best how to guide for anyone who lives somewhere that is outside of Canada Standard Time. (My Google now knows that when I type in 'time' to complete it with 'in British Columbia').

: ) Canada is so big that we actually exist in six different time zones. According to timetemperature.com, "From east to west they are Newfoundland Time Zone, Atlantic Time Zone, Eastern Time Zone, Central Time Zone, Mountain Time Zone, and the Pacific Time Zone."


So if you want to know what time it is "in Canada", well... Right now, for example, it's anywhere between 8:15 PM and 12:45 AM.

It gets even more confusing when you factor in DST, which Saskatchewan (for example) doesn't use.

Lol, I understand that, it's why I said it... I'm I at +10 and I believe you guys are at -8. So there is a slight difference. When it reaches midnight hear the sun is rising for you.

I don't think so. It's playing just fine for me. What sort of error are you getting?

huh, it's working today, what the hell.
this problem has happened on a good few videos, all of them ones from blip.tv
the problem i was having was i would get a load of boxes where the video is meant to be saying, "object not found" or "trying to get property for (something)"

and then the blip video would be something about apple, in this case a guy showcasing an ipad app

sorry i cant describe it better, i'll screenshot it next time i see it
