  1. That was extremmely funny, and yet again everyone in the office thinx I’m insane because only I understand who John is. This is sooo funny! Can I post it in my profile! PLEASE! Why wasn’t Justine in it?

  2. very funny. i see no new clothes on wearable extras though…..then again, i have been checking it a lot. just a poke to author-person, we came up with a bunch of awesome tee shirt ideas in the comments for the last post….hint, hint….

  3. HORRIBLE! WORST FIVE MINUTES OF MY LIFE! THE COMPUTER OVERHEATED WHILE I WAS WATCHING THE VIDEO FOR THE SECOND TIME! HORRIBLE!

  4. yes, hillary!, i agree. it does seem to say “Maureen” to me…hilarious!

    but the site isn’t opening for me…i keep getting that “the page cannot be displayed message after waiting 5 minutes for it to load.

  5. IT’S MY BIRTHDAY!
    Well, not today here, but where ever you are it’s my birthday…on the 24th. =]

  6. yay! there’s a juniors i don’t want to hurt you, but i will if i have to shirt, and a hoodie with that print. and—an added bonus—IT’S NOT PINK!

  7. making things not pink is always an improvement.
    unless it’s food or something. then it might just be mold.

  8. ok that took me a little while to figure out, but you mean hp5 right?

    and i’m not too big of a fan of pink either. i wear a lot of blue. and maroon, which is kinda pink, but not really.

  9. why did hp5 make you hate pink? (not that it isn’t a smart opinion) cuz of umbridge and her creepy kitten plates?

  10. Umm, Maroon is mor brown than pink but yeah HP5. I’m still gigg;y from the video. And I was the first to comment. YAY! ahhh! *sighs* if only I’d been a month earlier. =( Oh well, time marches on.

  11. it’s okay……i’m not even wearing any black today. no, wait. yeah, i’m wearing all black.
    this is the defensive attitude i get from hanging around people whose favorite color is pink. *shudder*

  12. Taylor? what are you talking about?
    Is it jsut me, or does that one part where they all slide down the stairs look painful? and isn’t it funny that you can see Bennett laughing in the back when Libba is acting all funny on the table?

  13. ohhhhhhhhh, your saying that you never sai she was goth! Im a dork. Yeah, people think I’m a punker! But I am SO not! Not that I have anything against them, my father was one, but I am not!

  14. like the old gothic castles that they have in some place that i can’t remember. idk, it’s in some country. something i learned in social studies (history=social studies for my school) in 6th grade that stuck in my mind.

  15. goth isn’t even about what people think, the clique I mean. People are weird. It’s really about going back to that period of time, prefering the sombre way people dressed and the writing style that was popular then, but more modernized.

  16. yeah there’s that whole “don’t label me” campaign now. but then again, it’s not just the people who get labeled as “goth” or “emo,” there’s still the people who get stuck with the label of like “prep” or whatever.

  17. yeah, but i’m horribly prejudiced against most of them because of those stereotypes (or thier own actions/personalies) so i don’t think about that as much

  18. I love that all of you are ignoring comment 29. I’m already over and done with stereotypes. One day you’ll figure out that having a good friend is all that matters, not what category they or others fit them under.

  19. wow, i feel profound. i mean, in only 34 comments we got from discussing a funny utube video to the psychological implications of labelling.

  20. i’ve always measured semi-success by having your own wikipedia page…..though you could technically create one yourself. but that’s not the point.

  21. i didn’t say anything was wrong with it. i said it was cool. it is one of my personal markers of noterioty. wow, horrible spelling.

  22. no. i have no clue who that is. i’m not really sure where it came from.
    but hey, really hard. one guess where the zane part came from.

  23. i dunno who’s funniest. i think it’s funny as a whole.

    and maybe i got it from Hawksong by amelia atwater-rhodes. zane cobriana is awesome too
    the world will never know its true origins…

  24. Serafina Pekkala is a good witch from the His Dark Materials trilogy by Phillip Pullman, now being mad into a fexcellent movie.

  25. i totally remembered, wasn’t reason’s mother in the magic or madness trilogy named serafina too? or wait, that was sarafina. same thing really.

  26. ok i had to pause it in the middle to announce that WOW i just realized that when they were all lying on the floor it spelled out JOHN! yeah i’m kinda slow but at least i found it now.

  27. hahaha! yeah that part was really cool, and yeah Sarafina is Reason’s mother. And the hole punch tried to eat my stack of papers. So I stabbed it with pen.

  28. ok i watched the whole thing and i have to agree w/ serafina: it was just funny as a whole.

    but i noticed ANOTHER thing that i hadn’t the first time around: when maureen was doing that little dance thing on the table at 3:05, scott asked “have you ever ridden a mechanical bull?”

    i just thought that was funny

  29. I absolutely luuv the shirts
    althougyh they might look weird if someone didnt know what the shirt was about i would still totally wear them
    expecially the one that says “The Smoke Lives”!!^_^

  30. yeah i almost bought a “the smoke lives!” shirt but i asked my mom’s opinion to help me decide between that and “Team Aya” and she was like “‘the smoke lives’? people are going to think you mean something about smoking or drugs!” but to the person who hasn’t read the uglies trilogy, i can see where she was coming from.

    and i just thought of something that would be pretty weird: what if like someone bought a team zane shirt, and then someone from the same school bought a team david shirt, and they wore them on the same day…it’d be like the showdowns in those old cowboy movies. i don’t know what made me think of that!

  31. Ahem…I was the first to mention this so therefore the award goes to me….Just kidding! I wanna be a Nerdfighter too! I didn’t miss much while I was at lunch.

  32. yup i’ll probably change it again sometime but not yet. i was listening to some of their older stuff and idk i decided to change it again!

    i should link abercrombie.com for like a week and see what people say. experiment!

  33. OK, so I tried to keep a straight face throughout the whole of the video…I think it is physically impossible, I can’t help but giggle hysterically. And what does Scott mean when he says ‘the chairs are backwards’? They don’t look backwards…and is MJ trying to pretend that she is ridimg a mechanical bull, cuz if so I gotta agree with Scott, she obviously has never ridden a mechanical bull before. And who is he saying wasn’t in his ‘dream’? E. Lockhart or Bennett Madison? Man! this video is SOOO scrumdidleyummcious! And what is that song, both the one during the video and the one in the backround when MJ is riding her imaginary bull? I don’t think anyone will ever answer my stoopid little questions.=(

  34. I think the people would freak, from the sounds of it these people are the ‘if I could buy clothes at B&N or Borders, I would’ type of people. And I’d agree with them. Isn’t it FOOL that Justine was here?

  35. AHH!! That was SoOoOoOoOo FuNnY!! Was Scott the camera guy? Bc I didn’t really see him in there that much… but it was EXTREMELY funny!! lol lol lol lol lol…you get the idea 🙂

    Kadie-Wa

  36. Yeah, I love nearthe end when they throw the socks at him, andthe the black thing were he got all ‘huffy’ and walked away.

  37. I agree Hillary!!!! I’m still laughing. I WISH SO MUCH that I could see him in person. Hey! Scott, you should ask the producers of the movie if you can be in it!!!!! THAT WOULD BE FAWESOME!!

    Kadie-Wa

  38. omg that would be sooo cool, like once they start production of the movie he should like make a cameo appearance even if it was just for like 5 seconds.

  39. he should sooooooooooo be like a crumbly or even a Special Circumstance! That would be so fool! He can give the evil eye really well.

  40. lol i’ll laugh so hard if scott comments and says something like “who are you calling a crumbly?”

    but yeah he should do something like that…he would be great as a special but i’ve never seen scott act (except for that wonderful tidbit we just watched!) that’d be cool to see him try a hand at it.

  41. I think that he should be David’s dad!! Or what was that guy’s name from the Uglies…was it..oh yeah! He should be the boss!!

    Kadie-Wa

  42. Or he could be a Warden! or Tally’s dad…no he’s not shown in the book. Yeah Lizzy-wa, I know what you mean, these are our role models, but I don’t think it’s bad that they like to have fun, do you? MJ just wanted a silly-making video for Johns b-day.

  43. I just wanna see like…I don’t really know…I just wanna see what pplz were saying then. And I remember my first post was extremely long and I thought I was talking to Scott, not everyone else. I was kinda clueless then! 🙂

    Kadie-Wa

  44. Wow, I was also the 5th, 10th, 25th, 35th, 40th, (yay!) the 50th, 60th, 65th, 90th, and a whole buch of others.

  45. hahahahahahaha! well i just watched the video again and am I the only one that noticed the HUGE stacks of books?

  46. And at the beginning they were all wearing normal clothes, then at the end they were still wearing their dance clothes. I ESPECIALLY love Bennett’s! those are some whit legs!

  47. I’m here…but I bet that ur not…WELL…..

    602,101 bottles of pop on the wall 602,101 bottles of POP…take one down pass it around 602,102 bottles of pop on the wall!!

    I noticed that huge stack of books too!! I wonder what books they are…hmmm…

    Kadie-Wa

  48. I love the way he says ‘You weren’t there’! where’d everyone go? Man you guys always leave when I show up.

  49. HA HA HA!! You weirdos! i watched ur viedeo and i was afraid that my dad was gonna come in and ask me what on EARTH i was watching. Old people can be so strange sometimes. at least we young people are a little more mature. jk scott. u know i luv u all. but uh if any of u hope to become actors or dancers id advise u to stick to ur day jobs (as writers)…

  50. definitely random…i just watched the video for the 14th time and when i turned around my little brother and sister were behind me with the most hilarious faces! talk about a photo op. then my sister said “i don’t even want to know” and left. bubbly-making.

  51. That was too funny. xD

    Nothing is better then watching your favorite authors dance to ABBA songs. David’s expression while sliding down the stairs had me cracking up.

    Watch out for those socks, Scott!

  52. which one is libba bray in the video? is maureen the one in the pink? and is e. lockehart the one in the “FRESH” shirt?

  53. that is completely and utterly made of awesome!!! go scott and friends!!! john green is definitely worth tribute, happy birthday to john and mad props to you guys!!!!!

  54. This is completely out of the blue, but I just saw the Wearable Extras store, and holy smokes, BRAILLE?! Being a blind person, I was rather taken aback by that one. And, egads, it’s been so long since I’ve had to read grade one (just the letters and punctuation; grade two is all the nifty contractions, whole words, part words, etc…all the spiffy things that make it an actual code of sorts).

    Dang, now I really wish I had access to the Uglies trilogy in braille, but, alas, I don’t.

    And that video was very touching and also very hilarious. You guys are cool. 😀

  55. LOL that was HILARIOUS!!! lol luv it! They were dancing, then there was Scott, with a “geez, these people need help” expression. LOL!

    YAY!!! FLAMEBRINGER SHIRT! I’M SO BUYING ONE!!!

  56. YAY! and has anyone acyually watched Brotherhood 2.0? I have been for the last hour and let me tell you.. this is better than reality T.V., which admittedly isn’t fair b/c reality T.V. tends to rot brain cells, but B2.0 doesn’t, it makes you laugh and think. I am ADICTED!

  57. Wanna know somthing scary?? Well, if you said no, I’m still going to tell it anyways.

    So today i was going to go play with my dahlings. (The kittens) And when I got in there, there was only Zane and Tally and The mom. I paniced a little, and then started serching the room for them. After an hour and a half, I looked for the 20th time in the corner of the room and guess who was there–Shay. She was sitting there all cute. So I picked her and Tally up and I put them in a kennel so I could keep track of where they were. And I threw a toy in there so they could injoy themselves. I started looking around again and…wait, where did Zane go? Great, so now I found one and lost the other. Perfect. So I start looking for one of the boys. After another half hour of serching, i looked at the corner where I found Shay. And guess who was there…David. I put him in the kennel with the other ones and he plays with them. So, I’m only missing Zane when I hear a faint meow. I go back over to the corner where i found the other two and guess who was there? Zane. It was C-R-A-Z-Y!!! I swear, they just fell out of the ceiling and landed in that corner

    Wow, sorry that was so long!

    Kadie-Wa

  58. Me? Yes, I DO tend to get bored extremely easily. And then all of my soccer teammates say, “Only the boring get bored!” But I hate that quote.

    Kadie-Wa

  59. ahahahah that was great!

    Aww but Scott why didn’t you join in with the dancing? You deserved to have stinky socks thrown at you in the end you spoil sport! hehe j/k

    That was a good watch, definitely made me laugh 😀

  60. that is so amazing. 5 of my favorite authors (including you) in a movie dedicated to ANOTHER of my favorite authors.
    that is so awesome that you are all friends!

  61. Wouldn’t it be awesome if all the people on this site who are as crazy as them met eachother in some *ahemhemhemcoughchokeiminnocentchokewheezesputter* coincidence? We’d probably make the randoms’* eyes pop out.

    *I use random to refer to the normal, boring people.

  62. whoa……i dunno if i entirely got that….hmmm….gotta ponder on that…..
