I’m shook I always thought I was humble af with the 2nd to last name trick
I always put my name last because that is grammatically correct if I'm writing it.
When I was in school I'd refrain from putting my name first cause I thought people would find me conceited or something, so I would always put it somewhere in the middle lol. But in college, here in Brazil, any academic document must list the participants in alphabetical order, so that solves it
I put my name first. I didn’t care.
I wanted it clear that I wrote that report.
I used to feel bad for putting my name first but now that I've done all the work in group projects so many times, I dont feel bad anymore because it's the least my group can do for me 🤧
Yuka Han You know that emoji is blowing their nose, not exhaling angrily, right?
"You kinda miss everyone a little bit...
but not enough to hang out with them" 😂 college life
aye
they are more than acquaintances , but not quite enough for good friends, so I class that as "situational friendships"
Pretty sure that's how every person thinks of me while I'm gone.
Lol yes!!!
And here I thought I'm being weird thinking like that.
Here are the real 5 stages of group work:
1. Denial
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance
Lol yes
Martin Ištván If you wanna ignore that the original comment was a joke, the five stages of grief refer to the way a person who knows they’ll die soon feels and moves towards accepting that. The focus wasn’t supposed to be on the relatives of the dying person.
Martin Ištván no those are the real 5 stages of group development
@@luciaryan6063 also happen to be the exact 5 steps of software development
There are 666 likes and that is fitting so while it is a great comment, I will not like my good sir.
Ya know, group projects are meant to help us learn teamwork and trust, but from my experience, I learned to never trust anyone and that I'm better of on my own.
Anyone else?
Ya
i feel you
all i learned is to have other around me so I can stil invisible and doing what needs to be done.
Almost all the group projects I've ever had I end up doing all the work myself
"While this can be pretty hot, it's not in this context." 😂
2:30 is funny
President Flump I love your sense of humour
President Flump however I don't think that was funny.
Casually Explained is funny
TMR Teckk My reaction exactly
pro tip - don't sleep with anyone you do a group project with
not that this has ever been a problem before
definitely not a problem in engineering
Kevin Liu why say that?
Dream Villain only 1 in 100 engineering students are males
You've been living in a dream world, Rowden. From my experience 1 in 100 are female.
Oops you're right, I said that wrong lol
It's a carry or get carried process
Nathamel Camel I make sure I'm always carried
Sazzandara 1996 on that next level shit
Nathamel Camel iI
I've been on both sides.
When I die I want the people who did group projects with me to lower me into the ground. So they can all let me down one last time.
The good ole top yak. Rip yik yak
Holy shit. I have not seen anything quite like this. Nicely done.
+Heizman What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be playing Lee Sin?
That's hilarious.
Writing some explicit names in your last for that request might be one of the most passive-agressive moves you can do.
And in a way, you're sure to have the final say on that one.
Guys, please tell me you have seen this joke before? It's old as shit ye damn fetuses.
I once had an engineering group project where we had to build a little device that could transport a golf ball up a ramp and shoot it over a wall. I was in charge of the manufacturing and was kind of waiting on the design and materials stage to be completed before I could take over with my part.
Finally when I got the all clear it was the night before we had to test the devices performance (which I was totally fine with). I had it all worked out, I had all the tools and materials ready to go (It was quite a solid design with pvc, aluminium, springs etc.).
It got to about 11pm at night and one of the group members (a crazy control freak chick) starts private messaging me outside the group chat, saying that she thinks I won't finish in time and will do a crap job. I then sent her a video response of the little device working perfectly, rolling along my floor and shooting the ball. She said it was crap and asked for my address to come pick it up so that she could work on it overnight.
I got fed up with all her messages so gave her my address and left it outside my front door, then went to bed. So she comes over to my house at around 1am, turns out she didn't have a car and lived far away. She had caught the train with her mum and walked a few kilometres to my house... wtf
So the next day we are waiting at uni to do our test run for the assignment and my teammates are grilling me as to why I gave it to this crazy chick. She finally rocks up with a super big grin on her face, and dumps this bag of shit onto the workbench. It's literally a heap of toilet paper rolls held together with string and sticky tape...completely different to my working model (which she had disassembled in the process of building her abstract art piece). It honestly looked like a pre-school toddler had put it together for a mothers day gift or something.
Btw this video was funny af!! Love your work man. :)
Scrivscribe
She prob wanted the D and used the project as an excuse.
Scrivscribe Fucking stupid ass bitch
Scrivscribe did you tell the professor?
Scrivscribe women in engineering lmao,if i were you i d tell her to fuck off and maybe cook me some food
Scrivscribe Nice. (`・ㅅ・´)
This has probably already been pointed out, but I'm proud I can translate the Japanese at 0:35, "指示を見てください" which means "Look at the instructions please," pronounced /shiji o mite kudasai/
I'm so proud I just saw it and automatically knew what it said.

Thank u for making this world a better place and making your team mates feel better about thereselves

And yet he always has Robin or Batgirl or whoever around?
Akshay Mhatre his ability to work alone is why I like Batman so much.

Fucking phony. Everybody knows dads don't understand acronyms.

As a mature aged student entering uni, this is what I expected to happen, but my first group task was brilliant. The entire group put massive effort in and performed well. We crushed the report and got HDs all around.
After that things went down hill a bit, but I was generally able to always team up with this one girl and between us two, we'd typically manage to hand in some thing good. We are both pretty unsympathetic, so weren't adverse to giving 0% credit to non-contributing team members.
my group projects go more like:
1. Procrastination
2. Procrastination
3. Procrastination
4. Procrastination
5. PANIC!!!! WHAT EVEN IS THIS???
it's in the other order for me
^ The guy you never see ladies and gentlemen.
That's not the process of a group project, but a personal assignment.
and mastrubation too
Frostadoodle I
Back in middle school, we had to do this project about making your own country with a gov't and flag. We had to explain how it worked and stuff too, but my team was always fighting and couldn't decide on anything. So I left the team and ask my teach if I could work by myself, he said no. I did it anyways cuz I really didn't want to work with them. On the day that we're turning it in, one of my friends shows up after being absent for a week (Before the project even started), that's when I saw an opportunity. I gave half the credit to him and he finished up the last thing that I completely forgot to do (Got lucky there). When I turned it in my teach asked if I did this by myself, I grew stiff but said no and told him that me and my friend worked at home (I don't even know where he lives). Glad to say we got a higher score than the other team.
Good on ya.
And the other guy
at 0:39 the japanese says "please look at the instructions"
God damnit Peter
Get your shit together Peter
Edit: Sweet channel mate, keep it up.

Just graduated as an engineer, and can confirm we learned the forming storming morning performing adjourning thing. James learned something!
“He wasn't great at problem solving but was bubbly and enthusiastic, while I was slightly better at problem solving, but was filled with contempt and disappointment for all human life”

"I was filled with contempt and disappointment for all human life."
Holy shit that's me on a daily basis.
haha I find it funny how in college you meet me new people in your class while working on projects.. yet once that semester is done all you do is nod to each other in the hallways the following semesters

5 stages of working in groups: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance
It's the fact that I literally put my name second to last in my most recent group project even though I'm the one who pulled through the most with getting it done. I was SO close to putting it first out of pettiness but also didn't wanna be rude 😭✋
This is so relatable!
Well, except for the last 2 stages, because they always seem to vanish in any project I'm part of...
I've heard this project management concept many times before, but this was the funniest (and truest) explanation I've heard yet.
"I was slightly better at problem solving, but was filled with contempt and disappointment for all human life" Made me laugh so hard
Just finished a group project today it was a complete waste of time.
When you realize theres a vex robotics kit in the video and start geeking out.
And Eclipse(laptop screen at 1:17)
“Peter.” Would be the guy you never saw or heard from, who did nothing but would show up on the day of hoping to still get credit
You have a very different experience with group projects. I'm headed towards my last year of a very long attempt to get a BA, and out of what must be near 10 various group projects I've needed to do (only counting the 4+ group ones). Without exception, 2 others show up at the first meeting. The one most eager about structuring the group and deciding roles quickly disappears. Half the time, that takes the official (as in the one we indicated to the professor) leader out. The other half, there is no lead. The third reserved member offers to contribute what they can around their Sisyphean work schedule. 2-3 days before the whole thing is due, the 3rd member hands in a few scraps of info that can be found with a first order google search. I then have to complete the project just in time for the "leader" to put in a few executive decisions and turn it in. The 4th and missing member puts their name in about half the time as well.
In short, group projects exist to give you the valuable life experience that only 1 in 4 people works, and the other 3 get an equal share of the reward and credit. If I were smart, I would have been learning how to do that rather than worrying about grades.
Man filling the Sam o nella gap in our hearts the best he can
My group be like:
1-4. 1 person working
5. profit with a sense of guilt
I once did a group project. It was supposed to be one PowerPoint... it ended up being three
I usually lead the team and send the final essay and the norm with names is:
-If we all did our work and it was nice to work with the team, names in alphabetical order.
-If there is someone that did nothing and never showed up or only pasted 2 links, don't even include that name in the report (I warned you).
-If some people were super dumb but motivated and others worked well, I put first the one that contributed more to a better grade and last the one that did work, but I had to teach her everything she did (yes you Monica) or correct everything he wrote (i'm looking at you Lucas).
In the last case, unless everyone were a little dumb and slow, I put my name after the hard-working ones. If not, I get mad and put my name first. I relieve all my stress and feeling of the project with the order of names xDD
You know a channel is good when you have to consistently pause their videos to give yourself enough time to laugh
For me, group projects always go like this: the group actively excludes me, and then they go to the teacher to whine about how I did nothing. Or I get to do all the work.
"Someone is going to create a Facebook group chat. This individual is the leader until further notice."
I thought the five steps were denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance, but I guess this works too
One time in 8th grade or something we had this ball that hanged off some twig. So there was supposed to be one person who measured, one person who swung the ball and counted how many times it passed, one person who made the rope shorter and one person who did the math.
I ended up doing 3 roles instead of 1. The kid who was supposed to do the math kept asking me what he should write in some spaces (Apperently he can't read the instructions above).
The teacher told us that we should write those statistics in our notebooks or whatever but because we didn't have enough time we had to do it for homework.
But that's not where the trouble ends, no I asked to kid to take a picture of said statistics and he apperently couldn't because he was in another city meaning I had to do my homework in class.
oh my goodness the part talking about doing it all yourself the night before then writing your name not first or last is totally me!! that is super freaky how accurate!
There's 4 kinds of group project when i'm involved:
The Solo, where it's technically not a group project as i did it alone. Average note: 9
The Following One: Where the entire group does what one person said the best as they can (Most of the time).
Average note: 8
The Improvised one: Where instead of having a plan they just make a list of what they have to make and it comes out an amalgamation of 3 of the member's ideas.
Average note: 9, 7 if the teacher does't realize this is what an actual group prhect looks like.
The no-group: Where noone made anything or it wasn't of very high quality so one of them had to save it in the presentation. That someone being, most of the time, me.

Sick burns from M. Ikeda.
I put my name first on the end result because I fucking did it all and deserve the first spot
I usually put my name last even though I generally do the most work on the project.
I was always that kid who would carry the whole entire group project.
Worst member I had tried to be our group leader when she had not a single clue of what our project was. Not only did she waste our time, she kicked our group out of the computer lab because she felt "guilty" for taking up more time than everyone else.
After all that she contributed virtually nothing to our group project. I tried to get her kicked off our group multiple times but the teacher wouldn't let me do it. She should've gotten a 0.
Every group has that person who does nothing while saying you’re doing it wrong.
this is painfully accurate to my doomed computer science senior project;
1 person who couldn't speak english
1 person who never came
1 person who had serious conversation issues/seemed like a serial killer
... me who did the entirety of the project who yelled at them all in front of the class and got a B while they all got C's
I used to be the paperweight of the group back in normal times. But ever since online learning, i became the fucking glue that keeps the group from falling and failing.
I despise group project since highschool, because they always pick me as a leader + and almost make me do everything because "YouRE JuSt THaT GUy". That carries till I graduated from uni.
How is this not on Trending yet
I love group Projects, I am always the one that never shows up and when it comes to the presentation I just improvise something based on the people that spoke before me. Always works.
In one class I had the worst group imaginable. One fellow literally did nothing at all except cross his arms and frown. No talking, no interaction, nothing. Another fellow was constantly talking with the teacher. It wasn't even on our assignment, he was just chatting it up in the middle of class. No matter what we did these two would do these things. Another fellow was... a helpful idiot. One time while asking him what he thought of a question, he grabs my book and starts underlining a passage, in pencil, without my permission. Thank God there was one other person who both cared and put relevant input in in order to do those things.
Moral of story: just because a person is in college does not mean they're smart or has good work ethic.
I seem to be the only one who had a good experience with a group project. Yes I've had my shitty experiences and once did everything on my own (my team even admitted to it at the end) but I had a group project for my Game Design class that went beyond perfectly. We all brainstormed the fuck out of the game Idea, agreed on our own roles, didn't speak to each other for over a week, met in school, compiled our work, and already had the best game/presentation in the entire class.
I thought it would be a mess since no one made any contact but I just played my role which was design the Roles of the game, draw out the designs for everything, and come up with the questions while the others did the more boring stuff like create a narrative and complete the slideshow. The fact that everyone worked hard on their own role without someone having to push them made it so much easier, there were no missing parts whatsoever.
We had an entire month to complete the game so after that we just added more and more frosting on the cake and even got to patent the game idea since it seemed to work so well.
In conclusion, just don't be lazy and don't be scared to work with others. I made great friends and had a great time doing the project
The part about putting your name second to be modest is so true for me lol.
It turns out that this entire time casually explained was just cgp Grey's side experiment for his misery video and now he's too far down the well to get out.
I remember my 6th year project, I third wheeled a couple who’s been going out for years, the girl was all chill and focused and the boy just talked about anime and went full jotaro on the soccer guy with a meter long ruler
My experience with group projects once I got to college
Be an introverted nerd. Be put in a group with four other very outgoing people. They meet with me once. They adjourn and say "OK guys I'll let you know when we meet next". I never get notified about further group meetings and show up on presentation day with literally no idea what is going on and just stand there while they present. Get a B, having done almost literally no work.
One of the few benefits to being introverted, honestly.
Most awkward part is who breaks the ice of the group before that everyone just sitting there staring at each other
1:44 genius humour right there
3:01 ok I feel very called out right now
Ive had a group project to do over the last couple of weeks. I divided all the work out fairly and evenly, but ended up doing a lot more than others. Some work came back was just appalling and despite several attempts to get that person to improve the work i basically ended up finishing it for them. I legit would be a lot less stressed ane anxious if i did the whole project alone and the work would have been finished days ago
It’s so accurate it’s terrifying.
My 5 person group project in steps:
1. Give roles
2. 1 person made the slides, who wasn’t there for the presentation
3. I make all notes
4. I talk the whole 90 minutes
5. I get the highest grade out of everyone except girl who was gone
1 do nothing
2 do nothing
3 do nothing
4 do nothing
5 one person finishes and turns it in
There is also the one guy who says: Guys, I will do that part because I have done loads of that in the past and I'm really really good at it...." just to find out that he has no clue what he is doing at all
Just found this channel, absolutely fantastic.
My group projects.
1. We come up with an idea and i write down a script while everyone else makes suggestions every 10 mins while playing keem's fidget spinner game.
2. I finish writing the script and we are ready to record.
3. everyone decides the script is bad and record without a script.
4. i get out of the project and make a project on my own.
I recently had a group project (well, it was only me and one other guy, but that counts, right?). After some false starts, I decided it would be faster and easier for everyone if I did all the work myself. After I finished and submitted the project, I emailed my teammate (who I never met in person) to assure him that the project was done and he could enjoy his weekend. He replied, telling me he was actually planning on doing the same thing and I just beat him to the punch.
The awkward part is when no one leaves the group chat so it’s always just...there and lurking like, “you used to know these people for a week but now u never talk.”
This vid just helped me for an exam i did not study for but they asked what are the stages of group development thank you casually explained under the layers of shitposting you are educational keep it up
that comment on the name order for the person who did all the work is way too real
How i do group projects:
1-divide it in parts
2-everyone does a part as if it wasnt a group project
3-guy who doesnt do his part is kicked out of group, fails the subject, eventually quits the career and gets a job at mcdonalds
Recently I a group of students from my school including me went on a science project competition. I did all the work the night before. I coded, wired, tested everything until 1 am. Although it was a cake walk because I had done most of it before, it was quite fun
Finally got the joke about the door and letting you up - third times the charm!
He nailed it down to the second to last detail
What if Peter is the only competent one but just hates to be around his group members because they are... extraordinarily incompetent?
The dry humor is on point 👍
First year eng student, pretty much on point. Luckily we get to remove people's name from the sheet so if someone never shows up theyre gone
the sentence at the end got me
I have so many phone numbers in my phone from the past 5 years of college of people I had group projects with and have never spoken to since
Team work is when one person do all the work and the other teamed together to not show up.
I am watching this while doing group work all by myself. Good old days team mates getting good grades
So accurate, who ever creates the groupchat is incharge
Casually explained: traveling with friends. Or better: with family.
"Putting your name last is too passive aggressive" lol
this channel is always trending
Dude right on point. I loled at the last part
I'm just that one guy who does their portion, then stands back and prays to god everyone else is doing the same.
