Andrea I just finished studying some more for my marketing final and glanced at the class syllabus. It said "Final: Monday, December 18 at 1pm." My heart skipped a beat! I thought I had missed my first final! But then I remembered the Monday was wrong and it was supposed to say Wednesday, which makes sense since the date is December 18. *sigh of relief*
This video is just what I needed! I've been experiencing a lot of stress lately, and my self esteem has been dropping again. But this video totally cheered me up! Thanks, guys! :D
You guys just summed up so much of my life in this video. Struggling with failure, the fear that I will fail at something, or beating myself up when I don't do something perfect the first time has been a constant battle for many years. Thank you so much for turning this issue into such a lighthearted and funny video! You guys are awesome!
After losing my job and suffering from a debilitating medical condition, I have been having the thoughts that Jordan satirizes in this video. They are a voice of encouragement in these difficult times. God bless Blimey Cow.
I have an OC who would REALLY relate If anyone is curious he's a fusion OC and one of his sources (The people he was fused from) TOTALLY messed up on some things and if he thinks to hard about those things he'll start to think they were his fault even though he had nothing to do with it.
Thank you for this. I'm a freelancer and on Christmas I heard a bunch of wishes like "may you find a secure job" or "I hope you will figure out your path". Well, I am on my path, even if it's not completely figured out yet.
Well put Jordan! It can be so difficult to move forward because we let ourselves get tied up by our past. May we all cut ourselves some slack and not be afraid to try new things or meet new people! Well done team BlimeyCow!
I was watching this for pure amusement, but there was one point (at 2:15 - 2:20) where Josh said something that I realize is the way I sometimes think about mistakes that I've made. I carry it around so much and let myself feel guilty about it every time I'm reminded of it, and I don't let it go because I feel like I'd be shirking the consequences of my actions if I didn't. Thanks for pointing that out Blimey Cow, I love learning lessons from you :) (truly)
This is officially my favorite Blimey Cow episode yet. I even gave in and finally made a stupid google+ just so I could comment and say that this was EXACTLY what I needed to hear and I'm so very, very glad Blimey Cow exists. Thank you guys for all that you do! :)
This is a really good topic to hit. i have traveled the world and lived in so many lives and my family is so proud of me and I'm only 22 and I still feel this way, especially when I consider starting college. Thanks blimey cow
I'm like this in the sense, that if I've never done it before then I'm too scared to try incase I mess it up and look stupid lol. I still try and do it of course, but theres always that self confidence issue in the back of my mind going "omg, I don't have a clue what i'm doing. They're all staring at me thinking what an idiot I am because I can't do it. Omg, I cant handle this pressure. I'm so crap." and then by the time I've done it I feel like a hot fluster because of all the pressure I gave myself. xD
Wow... so the entire time I'm sitting there going 'hey, Jordan's fear of failing must have been in his fear landscape' and 'maybe he should choose Dauntless to overcome his fear' and 'Josh sounds like he could be in Erudite... AND HE'S WEARING BLUE' and 'haha I bet the Audible Audiobook of the Week is gonna be Divergent lol' ............AND THEN IT IS!!! I don't even know what just happened. MIND = BLOWN xD
It always seems like these videos come out at the time when I need them most. I just tried a bunch of new things, failed at some but succeeded in others! :D Thanks, BlimeyCow!
I really needed this, lately the devils been reminding me of my mistakes from years ago that i already asked Jesus for forgiveness for and its been eating me alive
Thank you for this video. I've been feeling kind of like 0:42-1:08 for a while now (I'm a writer) and I needed this reminder that "maybe I'm not the dumbest stupidest person that ever was."
When I was in middle school, I hated myself. It took me until much, much later to realize that anyone who thinks about themselves as much as I did is sure to completely love themselves (if they have a personality disorder [jk, but not really]) or completely hate themselves.
If you think your an idiot remember roman emperor Caligula once declared war on Neptune god of the sea and told his soldiers to walk to the beach and start stabbing the water. Sorry if I got the story wrong I got it from a not really reliable source.
Devil Josh is hilarious!!! Love the sparkly bits on the horns headband :P Great to see Grandpa Jordan again so soon, too. I can relate to this theme. I have messed up a lot, especially in university and although I've made so much progress in raising my grades it's so easy to let thoughts of how bad I've done in the past prevent me from getting started on things in the present. It's good to see my problems are not unique :)
Great discussion starter for small groups, youth AND adults! Something many experience internally and no one discusses out loud. Great to follow-up with biblical preventative tips for re-training our mind and experience true freedom in Christ ... for whom the Son set free is FREE! Thanks #blimeycow
I shared this video on Facebook and we got to talking about it and someone brought up these wonderful words of wisdom, "Isn't it weird how we think that our failures from the past are so bad that we can't let go? But then... Jesus did... so the only people who can really hold on to them is ourselves."
Aw man this is SUPER relevant to my life an i have younger siblings who feel the same way, and i just look at them and think, "how can you of all people think that you're a failure??? You're amazing. I'M the failure!"
I think everyone feels this way from time to time and it can be hard to get out of. But working on it is a day to day thing. Awesome video guys! :) Love you
"Big daddy weave "Redeemed" - Lyrics" This song is in my liked section and it is amazing. I found out about it some time after God helped me see That I am NOT a falure. The most epic way is sincerely asking God, and reading the bible (the word is God). He is Epic!
I can relate to this as it is certainly easy to think of yourself as a sum of your failures... I find the best way to get rid of that image and that guilt is to go to Confession; I've known it for a while now and I can assure you, God is waiting for you to forgive and forget all those mistakes and make you feel inmensely loved and worthy. Give it a try and don't let the negative ideas sink in! :)
Hahaha 100% true! And also, it's nice that I get a video in the middle of the day. Usually every channel I watch uploads their videos at about midnight. The perks of living in Australia? Haha
I have finals this week so I'm experiencing a lot of stress and pressure to not fail! This video was just what I needed :) Thanks Blimey Crew!
haha same!

This video is the pinnacle of how I feel every day D;
He understands the struggle! Lol well listen Jordan, you are most certainly NOT a failure on UA-cam! We love you Jordan!
Lovin The Devil and Grandpa Jordan Characters!
I know that I have said this time and again, but really this time, BEST EPISODE YET!!!!
this is funny!

Seriously loving that Grandpa!
story. of. my. life ... with a hopeful ending. thank you blimey cow!!
I have an OC who would REALLY relate
If anyone is curious he's a fusion OC and one of his sources (The people he was fused from) TOTALLY messed up on some things and if he thinks to hard about those things he'll start to think they were his fault even though he had nothing to do with it.

I never watch these on Monday.... It's still Sunday.
This was a great video for finals time.
The "I'm a failure" close-up gets funnier every time you do it :D
Well put Jordan! It can be so difficult to move forward because we let ourselves get tied up by our past. May we all cut ourselves some slack and not be afraid to try new things or meet new people! Well done team BlimeyCow!
Aw. They made a video for me.
I think that this is my favorite episode so far because one, it was posted on my birthday and two, I relates to me perfectly!

This is awesome. This is how I feel daily. But I really do feel better by watching this. Thank you.
Has anyone else noticed that the "next week on messy Mondays" thing never actually happens the next week? xD
So, it's 10:45 Sunday where I am. Messy Mondays has a whole new meaning, they can't get the day right anymore! Jk
Time zone difference?
It was 8:45 my time when you wrote this, but it's not really a "new" meaning, since this happens every week.
Nikolai Doffing I live near them, and it was about 10:45 when they posted it, I think their just trying to be on top of things.
Thanks guys for cheering me up and making me feel like I'm the only one who feels like this.
Loved the red suit. Great advice from that guy. He's a natural!
Devil Josh...wow! Laughed until I cried. And Grandpa Jordan again! Great job guys! :D
The Joshin Devil is a must comeback! Excellent guys. ;)
HOW do you do it without laughing uncontrollably??! I am awestruck at that!
The MySpace comparison in the end killed me lol. Hahahahaha good one!!
You aren't a failure Jordan! You guys are my favorite UA-cam channel and you don't live too far from me which is super exciting and I love you guys!
Loved the grandpa and devil costumes... And the end. Bahahahaha!
I was about to click off and then I heard "The Audible Book of the Week is Divergent".
Yes. *nods in approval*
This is a really good topic to hit. i have traveled the world and lived in so many lives and my family is so proud of me and I'm only 22 and I still feel this way, especially when I consider starting college. Thanks blimey cow
Lol the things Devil Josh says about MySpace :P
I'm like this in the sense, that if I've never done it before then I'm too scared to try incase I mess it up and look stupid lol. I still try and do it of course, but theres always that self confidence issue in the back of my mind going "omg, I don't have a clue what i'm doing.

I really needed this for my finals this week... Thanks Blimey Cow!
I love Grandpa Jordan! So hilarious!
Wow... so the entire time I'm sitting there going 'hey, Jordan's fear of failing must have been in his fear landscape' and 'maybe he should choose Dauntless to overcome his fear' and 'Josh sounds like he could be in Erudite... AND HE'S WEARING BLUE' and 'haha I bet the Audible Audiobook of the Week is gonna be Divergent lol' ............AND THEN IT IS!!! I don't even know what just happened. MIND = BLOWN xD
I love Divergent! It's so good! Your going to love the rest of the series! The movie comes out on March 24, 2014. I can't wait!
It always seems like these videos come out at the time when I need them most. I just tried a bunch of new things, failed at some but succeeded in others! :D Thanks, BlimeyCow!
The road to success is paved with failure.
and again, thank you for your words.
Glad I'm not the only one that feels like this ALL THE FREAKING TIME!!
Divergent is one of the best books of all time!!! This series will wreck you, but you will love every minute of it
Exactly what I needed this week. Thanks, y'all.
I hate when people ask "So, what do YOU do?" Me: "Ummm...I'm a starving artist?"
Old-man-Jordan is as amusing as old-man-Merlin in the BBC show. :-D
And then there's Caleb's devil. :-D
Yeesh, did I just say "Caleb"? Heh-heh, fail... I meant Josh.
Who else wanted Josh to poke Jordan with the red Devil's Poseidon stick? XD
I really needed this, lately the devils been reminding me of my mistakes from years ago that i already asked Jesus for forgiveness for
and its been eating me alive
Thank you for this video. I've been feeling kind of like 0:42-1:08 for a while now (I'm a writer) and I needed this reminder that "maybe I'm not the dumbest stupidest person that ever was."
This was exactly what I needed to hear this morning. Thank you. :) You've definitely been a blessing for me.
Thank You!!
This is exactly what I needed to hear today. Guess it paid to see it two days later :) You guys are wonderful!
When I was in middle school, I hated myself. It took me until much, much later to realize that anyone who thinks about themselves as much as I did is sure to completely love themselves (if they have a personality disorder [jk, but not really]) or completely hate themselves.
Jordan: "I'm going nuts!"
Me: "Join the club."
Accurate. Thanks for the honesty.
Actually needed that last bit on mistakes...can't keep on going back to the past, got to look forward.
the old man character literally made my day. brilliant.
wait... MySpace is STILL around?! :o
Only as a meme about loneliness.
woodfur00
haha XD
Jordan.. are you reading my mind because this is exactly how I feel :c
If you think your an idiot remember roman emperor Caligula once declared war on Neptune god of the sea and told his soldiers to walk to the beach and start stabbing the water. Sorry if I got the story wrong I got it from a not really reliable source.
Rofl! I laughed so hard at this video! Nice job again! ;)
I love how Josh is dressed up as Satan at the end used the fork thingy as his mike. lol.
Devil Josh is hilarious!!! Love the sparkly bits on the horns headband :P Great to see Grandpa Jordan again so soon, too.

This is exactly what I needed for finals week guys!
I shared this video on Facebook and we got to talking about it and someone brought up these wonderful words of wisdom, "Isn't it weird how we think that our failures from the past are so bad that we can't let go? But then... Jesus did... so the only people who can really hold on to them is ourselves."
Sometimes i think this whole channel is actually my subconscious mind projecting itself into the internet and becoming videos.
Skyping with you guys was awesome! Thanks again! -Samuel
Josh as the Devil...nice. :)
Seriously though, I know that feeling Jordan.
Ahhhhahahahhahahaha Josh!!!! Oh my goodness!!!! That was the best!!
Josh Devil is my new favorite character!
I love Blimey Cow more than I love myself
Thank you for making videos like this and being real!
oh my gods...Divergent(the trilogy) is AMAZING. Allegiant kills the feels though..just a heads up T-T
i know she ruined the series with Allegiant D:
Aw man this is SUPER relevant to my life an i have younger siblings who feel the same way, and i just look at them and think, "how can you of all people think that you're a failure??? You're amazing. I'M the failure!"
I think everyone feels this way from time to time and it can be hard to get out of. But working on it is a day to day thing. Awesome video guys! :) Love you
Thank you. I needed to hear this!
I really like Grandpa Jordan...too funny :)
Hahaha, I love Grandpa Jordan!! xD
If you can figure out a way to not feel like a failure all the time, let me know because I could use the help lolz
"Big daddy weave "Redeemed" - Lyrics"
This song is in my liked section and it is amazing. I found out about it some time after God helped me see That I am NOT a falure.
The most epic way is sincerely asking God, and reading the bible (the word is God). He is Epic!
Divergent??? XD I love that book!!!!!!!
I felt like that video went by realllllllly fast... well, time flies when you're enjoying yourself.
You guys should do a Blimey Cow Rewind video.
Thanks guys. :-) Needed this for the week.
Wow, I thought I was the only one who self loathes myself based on things I messed up in my early childhood. Nice to see I'm not alone on this one. :)
I can relate to this as it is certainly easy to think of yourself as a sum of your failures... I find the best way to get rid of that image and that guilt is to go to Confession; I've known it for a while now and I can assure you, God is waiting for you to forgive and forget all those mistakes and make you feel inmensely loved and worthy. Give it a try and don't let the negative ideas sink in! :)
Thanks I really needed to hear this
Blimey cow? No bull?
Hahaha 100% true!
And also, it's nice that I get a video in the middle of the day. Usually every channel I watch uploads their videos at about midnight. The perks of living in Australia? Haha
Divergent is awesome xD
Grandpa Jordan is back!
Thanks, Blimey Cow.
I really needed this, thanks!
Keep the Grandpa!!! He's amazing!!!
this speaks so much to me it's nearly creepy...
its cool to see that they're expanding the wardrobe.
I'm watching messy Mondays on Sunday!!!
I'm a failure too! :D

(Some more than others)
Tom Inman That's so mean
