It is ridiculous how inspirational you are. When you said you were "exactly who you wanted to be", that really made me wish I could say that about myself today. I'm 17 and still have lots of time to change that, and because of you I am planning to do just that. Thank you Boogie.
i regret not telling my favorite singer how much he inspired me and how his music helped me through depression. i met him at a signing, but it felt awkward to tell him personally while the other band members were there. he left the band he was in and may never tour again
BIGGEST REGRET! When I was 21 I met my true love. I loved her with all my heart. My friends thought I deserved a better looking girl. They told me enough times that I eventually listen to them and broke it off. Ever since then I've dated many women, who my friends approved of. 15 years later, I'm still single because I've never met another girl who captured my heart and made me feel the way she did. ADVICE: Follow your hearts. Stop listening to idiots. Never take anyone or anything for granted.
I truly regret not having found your videos sooner! If only I found someone like you while I was in high school. I am a high school math teacher now, and I show my students your videos every once in a while. It is awesome to watch them sit in silence and listen to you.
I regret isolating myself more and more from friends and family for the past 2 years and now I've lost my best friend because of it. I regret losing my ambitions in my passions that I had not a year and a half ago, I regret being anxious and not trusting people as much as I should, even those that I love more than anything. I regret letting myself give up on what I was working on over years of time, and I hope that I can get myself to turn this all around soon.

"Choose to be happy" means that you don't let the things that upset you have control over you. You have to let the crap go, and work hard to not let it affect your attitude. Concentrate on what you like about yourself, and the things and people around you and let those things inspire you to make different choices that make you happy.
I regret giving someone too much of my time who didn't deserve it; I regret not spending enough time with someone before she had to return home; I regret not having the courage to talk to a girl I had feelings for; I regret not working hard enough in school to be better educated; I regret not making new friends and meeting new people; I regret that I didn't tell my family I loved them more. If I die tonight these are my regrets. - Thank you Steven for letting me get this off my chest.
4:10 to 4:40 were perhaps my 30 favourite seconds of your channel so far, which is saying a lot. It really struck a chord with me, and it's something in my life I hope to work out sooner rather than later. MUCH sooner. Oh yeah, "regret". :D
I regret a lot of things in life, Far too many to count. But one thing I regret the most is the fact that I never applied myself too much in school. I'm in the 8th grade. Your videos have really encouraged me when the going gets tough, I have to deal with depression, the pain of extremely weak ankle and knee bones, a divided house with two parents who are at constant conflict, etc. I had to cut this short but just know that your message is greatly inspiring. Please email me if you have time.
I don't regret anything yet, I stood up when I was getting bullied, am still in touch with my old friends, and have strong bond with anyone I enjoy being with. Peter from Denmark
My biggest regret is that I've been trying my best to get close to a girl I've loved with my whole heart since our first meeting (4 years ago). All this time I've been the best friend for her I could possibly be: I was always for her there, cared for her, was always nice to her, etc. and after all this time she told me that she always thought of our relationship as a service to me. I gave her so much of my life, energy and time I could've spent on other things/people. I regret it every day.
when you read the list of regreats i became teary eyed because even though at a young age i feel as if i have become to caught up with all the "drama" that i have in my life, and this video made me realize that i need to STOP and smell the roses, thank you boogie
In the entirety of my life, my biggest regret is possibly allowing myself to fall into a pit of depression, but as of today after watching this video I feel as if I can crawl out and create an exciting life for myself.=) Thank you man you are inspiration and deserve KOTW!!
Boogie you are a special person and I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I've never heard anyone as intelligent and articulate as you when you explain life in general.
I regret not making enough of an effort to socialize in high school. I had moved to a new area right out of junior high and started grade 10 off being pretty depressed. I got so caught up in losing the old friends that i forgot to make new ones. Unfortunately i didn't realize this until it was to late for high school. But i'm proud to say my mistake has made me a much more social person today and I'm always interested in creating new connections with people.
i have regretted not living my life up to this poin to its fullest, because im only young still i ive found my self looking back over the past few years and realizing i havent lived up to my opportunities and what not. thank you for sharing this with us boogie and im going to keep voting for you until the end :)
I always love ur talks about life. Cuz they're always soooo true. I think the same way as u do. I am also the same type of person that u are. I find it a great thing that ur doing talking to everyone about life I show all ur videos to my friends and family and they pass it around as well. I really hope that u win the king of the web. Me and my friends keep the votes coming!
I regret dating my ex, the relationship ended beyond bitterly. Due to that fact, we couldn't return to the friendship we had fostered for the majority of our lives. The memory only serves as a reminder of the loss of one of the best friends I have ever had. Though I've since come to the conclusion that happiness, for any amount of time, is worth the hurt that may entail it.
My biggest regret is fear. I quit college because I was afraid this girl was going to kill me (she said she would), I avoided people because I was afraid of what they would think of me, I've been afraid to speak my mind because I was afraid of what people would think of me... Yeah, you see why it's a regret. Thanks for giving me something to think about. I'm trying to change and do everything I can to focus on my own happiness instead of settling within my fear boundaries.
I have no regrets and I hope to keep that mindset as i get older. Regret is nothing more than stress over what can't be changed. So instead I look at what I'm doing now and I think I'm doing alright. Thank you Boogie, as usual you are awesome.
My regret is disappointing my father as a child. One day he told me that he did want to see me again, and a few days later he was hospitalized from a heart attack. The worst month of my life, and i would give anything to forget it.
I am 14 and I don't regret much out of my life... if anything it would be not standing up for myself at times, I have a lot going for me and I am really thankful for that. I have joined in with a group that bullied someone back when I was a kid and I regret that but there is no really big regret that I have.
I don't really regret much at all in my life thus far. I'm young however and I'm sure that someday I will. However one of the people I look up to has said "In order to survive, you gotta learn to live with regrets." So I try to do just that, and continue living even past any regret.
not being more active towards a girl i liked for almost 2 years. she gave up on me because i was too nervous to talk to her, and when i finally did some guy came up from behind her and licked her on the cheek in front of me, then the next week i hear she's bi and has girlfriend. if i had done something maybe i could've made myself happier instead of wasting those days of being depressed.(I'm 16 and I've known this girl for 4 years, and i told her two months ago).
I regret my laziness and my forgetfulness. Sometimes I get caught up in things and don't get other, better things accomplished when I want to. My goals are to grow a friendly community on UA-cam, and I'm proud to say that my account was monetized today! I also wish to become a physical therapist when I am older.
I can't say I regret not speaking my mind, because I did a lot of it. I regret not making friends in school. I regret never having a girlfriend. I regret losing touch with the few friends I did have in school. I regret not having fun in my life. I regret not having a job I love. I regret all of the time I waste on the internet, except when I watch your videos that open my eyes. Thank you boogie. And I think I will make some phone calls tomorrow...
"Regret" isn't something that holds you back. Dwelling on something and not forgiving yourself for past mistakes is what keeps you from progressing in your life. I appreciate all the experiences (good and bad) I've been through in my life because it's given me the wisdom I have today. However if I had the power to go back and change certain things I would, as would most if not all other people. People will dance around the word "Regret" because of the stigma attached to it.
you got my 10 votes today boogie!...your videos are amazing! Ive tried telling myself that i dont regret anything because at the time I either wanted or not wanted to do the events. Well its time to stop kidding my self. I regret not taking workouts for football seriously. I messed around and because of that I injured myself and never got to continue my college career. Boogie you don't understand how helpful your videos are. I want to tell you Thank you...thank you for everything.
I 'Regret' making myself a full time carer of somebody who was sick. I gave her everything I had and she kept me in a constant state of stress. The verbal abuse and arguments got to he stage where I finally had enough being made feel guilty for wanting to leave my own life... from age 25 to 28. I'm lucky I had my family around me to support me... and I'm moving on now : ) Boogie, you've made many video's that have ment a lot to me. The least I can do is vote for you Thanks mate
i regret not subbing you earlier... but seriously - if I found out I was going to die tomorrow, assuming it was because I didn't look after myself, I would regret mostly not looking after myself. Not eating well. Not exercising. Smoking. Drinking. I don't smoke any more - did for 16 years though but i'm still guilty of the other things. It's stupid that we don't look after ourselves better. It makes no sense at all. Really love listening to you talk about stuff - really do. Keep going!
my regret was not finding this channel earlier because since the end of 2010 i was depressed and since i started watching boogie 3 weeks ago, i dont think i am anymore. thats why i signed up to vote 10 times a day for him.
I've seen your videos where you flip out and smash up an xbox. Maybe you're just making the point that life shouldn't be about being stuck in a fake reality, or maybe it's just to make people laugh. I can't say. But what I can say, is that seeing you speak from your heart about life and all it entails, is amazing. It's refreshing and inspiring. I'd like to see more of this and less of the shock factor vids. I hope you have continuing success on youtube and continue to enjoy making videos.
I regret alot of things. Mostly leaving the love of my life behind when I had to move. The worst thing was that it was my choice. I thought it was a good idea to move but I miss her and I realize that it was a bad choice. I know you'll never see this but I love you♥
My regret is gaming so much as a younger kid. It ruined my social and physical capabilities. I'm still trying to get past it, but It has left a big scar in my life. You're an Inspiration to me, boogie.
and im so proud to call myself a gamer too, i honestly think about it, at my age, 20, and think about my future and how i want to be a gamer my whole life, and that even though people may think it is a childish endeavor, its something that makes me extrememly happy, and a stress relief at the same time
I don't know your situation with your girl, but the best thing you can do if you truly love her is tell her how much she means to you. Tell her that if she thinks it's best for the two of you to separate that you'd support her decision wholeheartedly because you love her and want her to be happy, whether it's with you or with someone else. If you try and manipulate her into staying, she's more likely to leave and never return. Fight for her happiness and you'll end up happy as well. Good luck.
Finally got off my lazy ass and voted! It's so easy! I want to encourage everyone to do it too. I just logged in through my Facebook and boom, gave my ten votes for Boogie :D
I regret isolating myself from most of the ppl in my life, I mean...now that I think about it, it was the worst thing I done not only too my family and friends but mainly myself for letting the fear of the unknown stop me and finding the place in my mind that I was safe. Now I'm trying to break that pathetic habit and open up to ppl more freely.
I really am enjoying these comments. It show that a lot of boogies supporters have had difficulties in their lives and find the advice from boogie a good way to deal with these problems.
This was an amazing video In terms of my regrets, I fought for happyness, stand up for myself when confronted, and I try to enjoy life. My only huge regret would be for not taking as many opportunities or chances I could've, and that I've lived a very risk free life to avoid failure
There is a lot that I regret, but most of all is the lack of respect I had for my parents, when I was (early teen years) younger. I think about it and ask myself, if that's how I want my kids to act. God knows I deserve it. Other things I regret: 1) Not going to my high school prom even though there was a girl that wanted me to go. 2) Lost contact with some old friends 3) Not spending enough time with friends and family Boogie, thank you for making this video. It's a lot to think about.
I regret not having more regrets, because to make errors is how we learn. However for the regrets I do have. I thank goodness for them because they are shaping who I am, and who I will become - for the better.
VOTED!!!! Everyone should vote. Truth be told, Boogie2988 is the most sincere person on youtube with more insight and intelligence than probably the large majority of the people who upload videos. Anyone who puts in the time and effort to bring joy and happiness in others lives with humor should be rewarded in some respect. So let's just make this happen. FOR BOOGIE!!
im a new subscriber and i just wanted to let you know that I think this video really made me think differently about like. I do regret some things. I regret not getting out of my room and spending time with my family and friends, opposed to playing video games. Its those people i love so much that have so much more importance. This video has truly helped me. Thank you for the beautiful video.
That's why you deserve KotW, because you try to inspire people, and make them think about things they might not normally consider. You entertain with one video, and then get deep into an important topic the next. There's other people online who try to inspire, but how many of those seem genuinely cool or nice enough to just hang around with?
I was voting for Sandy, but after i have seen your videos, i am thinking of switching. I really like u, and ur down to earth, and a good guy. Good luck.
I regret losing my ex. I regret dropping out of highschool, not studying hard enough etc. Sometimes i regret playing wow for 6 years, but i look back and i realise the fun times i had and the friends i made. I regret losing every single one of those friends.
If I died soon, like in the next couple of days without warning, I would regret: 1) Never telling my best friend since childhood, that I've basically been in love with her, she knows it I am almost positive but never telling her exactly how I feel, she has a boyfriend and has had a couple (all really great people who I get along with) and I am happy for her, but I'd love to just tell her one day exactly how I feel. 2) Never getting my culinary arts degree (I haven't started college yet). I'm 21
I regret being a douche up until highschool. Upon becoming a freshman and being once more at the bottom of the totempole made me realize the error of my way, and I've tried to be much nicer ever sense. I am now a Senior in highschool, and things are really looking up.
I just stumbled across this channel thanks to the King of the web. I must say this video was very heartfelt and you now have another supporter. Keep it up!
good king boogie, if this comment happens to fall upon your eyes theres something i want to say. you are an inspiration to me man, I was also brought up the same way you were with vast similarities with you. mental problems, weight problems, financial limitations, etc. I often get down thinking about how dull and unsatisfying my life is.... This vid is exactly what i needed this morning and i want to say thanks man. all i know is now.. i dont wanna live my life with regrets... thanks brother.
I tend to not try to regret the things I've done, though there are some events I truly regret. One of them being not standing up to a bully. It was a daily hell going to class and knowing I would get picked on. I however, did nothing to defend myself. Now I've learned from my mistake. The only way to truly stop a bully, is to stand up to them. Speak up for yourself, because chances are, no one will speak for you.
Voted 10 times for you. My regrets, well I have many sincere regrets. My one true regret is being born different (Asperges) and because of this, the world perceives me as different or that I don't belong. I regret sitting in this little room, wasting my life. Everyday my head tells me that what I'm doing is depressing, and that I'm wasting my precious time I have. I try block it away, but it always returns. I should listen to it. I want to get our of the chair and never sit back down.
I don't want to regret letting the girl i love, walk out of my life, currently, i am fighting for her, with all the energy in my soul. If i lose her, i'll regret it for my life. also, very nice video boogie, your words always are so inspirational, hope you get king of the web, you deserve it.
My biggest regret is that i never tried my hardest in school and ohnestly tested my self to my limits to see successful i could truely be. i feel deep down i am intelligent person that has just had no drive in life do to depression such as family and other life problems. And it really hurts to look back at my highschool years knowing that i did not try my hardest and all i did was waste my talent by siting around and smoking weed all day. I am know 3 weeks sober and trying to better my life.
Voting for you each day mate, trust me when I say I don't think you'll have many regrets at all when the time comes, the amount of people you've helped deserves a lot of recognition.
I regret judging people. im sure people look at you and instantly judge you, and you know what its a god damn shame that they do because you really are a lovely and genuine person. Im 15, if i grow up and im half as happy as you, and im half as honest with my self as you, id be a happy man
Very insightful. My biggest regret is not getting into UA-cam earlier and not getting into the gaming community sooner. Such a wonderful group of peeps here.
I regret wasting my early highschool years thinking about suicide, fearing the day I would wake up to go to school again. I regret never having the courage to comfront the bullies or the fact that I never begged to my parents to switch me from that school hell. I regret not being able to express my emotions properly, since I've always carried this doubt and fear towards people. I regret not staying in touch with the only true friend I had. And the thing I regret the most is, giving up.
Thank you for this video, boogie. I finally started thinking about my life. Maybe I will forget about it tomorrow, as I always do, but for now - thank you. Be happy.
Being a professional athlete is only experienced by less than 1% of the population. So you're in the company of most of the population. But you have the most precious thing on this earth and that is "Time." You're 19 years old and you can fulfil all the other things on your list and hundreds more. Just be patient and good things will eventually come into your life.
well boogie my regret is not spending more time with my parents, about 3 weeks ago i found out my mom has cancer and they give her 6months to a year, i have to say i have called,visited her more in these 3 weeks and thought about her more than i think i have in the last 5 years, and it hurts a lot being so busy with work and all the other stuff you forget what is really important in life
I used to regret my drug addiction, but its taught me so much ab out myself and others that i wouldnt trade the experience for anythng now that im clean, great vid boogie
I reget that I never got to say goodbye to my friend when she died. I remember when she called at my house, and when I got to answer the phone, i talked to her about my gf and how i think that she doesn't love me anymore or some kinda stupid thing like that. I remember how she told me to just hang in there. I will find love one day and I thought she was going to be ok. In the morning, my mom told me she was gone. Goodbyes are funny that way. You never know you get another one.
i regret not spending more time in my life to make others happy, its my goal in life to be happy myself and make everyone around me feel warm and happy. :) love you so much boogie, really do
If you have regrets about past relationships keep this in mind...."Never cry for lost love, true love will stay, and true love will last, no matter what."
Boogie. Please Shake my hand. I am in a bad spot right now, I have goals, and I have been running in circles lately. My regrets, is just not going after what I wanted when I was 16 years old, now I'm 21 almost 22, and I am JUST NOW working for my private pilots license. I just once would like someone to say, "hey man, you can do it, I see that you have it in you" but that never happens. I vote for you everyday, I even put you in the title of one of my videos. I wish I had more to say..but I suck
I regret alot of the things on the list but making time for my dreams mostly. thank you boogie for posting videos like this. I believe it will help me take this day in a new direction, much love my friend.
My biggest regret as of now is being closed. Not open or willing to do or enjoy new things. Not doing what I really want because I think someone may not like it. I am still young, I intend to change this.
I don't. I don't really have any regrets, I'm still quite young. I'm still trying to make a name for myself. I am happy. I'm living the truest life I can.
My constant attempts to make other people happy often leave me unhappy. I am a Type E personality. If you ask for a highlighter, and I only have one, I'll probably give you that highlighter. I am by no means a saint but I try far to hard to appease others. My biggest regret, though, was that I did not find your channel until 2010.
My only regret is not coming to the realization that I am not all those things people called me in school sooner. That I am a good person and that there is no point in listening to the negative things people have to say about me. If I had realized that I would have been much more confident in myself.
My regret would be not being more social in high school, have a girl friend and make friends who didn't pick on me all the time. I've learned from my mistakes back then, I have friends now that I feel comfortable being around and I don't worry about relationships, if I find the one that's right for me then it will happen in its own time.
Life goes on day after day Hearts torn in every way... People they rush everywhere Each with their own secret care... People around every corner They seem to smile and say We don't care what your name is boy We'll never turn you away... So I'll continue to say Here I always will stay... . So ferry, 'cross the Mersey 'cause this land's the place I love and here I'll stay . [Gerry Marsden]
I have major social phobias, problems, whatever you may call it. As a result, I rarely talk to people, and am just a nervous wreck all around. My biggest regret is that I haven't taken the strong efforts to interact with people as often. I feel like I'm wasting my life for the most part, to be honest.
Boogie, I always hope you make long videos. I love listening to you express your feelings and giving me your input. I seriously love you. I hope as a UA-camr (Different Account) one day I can make it this far.
I regret not telling people i know that i love and care, how i feel about them. i also regret not trying to fix my old relationship with my ex..and last i regret not eating well. There is more regret but don't wanna say.. thank you boogie :D hope you win!
My biggest regret was changing who I was just to keep and fit in with my so called "friends." I would go against everything I believed in, just so I would have friends and fit in. When i look back I realized how fucking insecure I was with myself. Luckily in the last year, I've abandoned those people. I refuse to become a fucking drone and follow the crowd. I refuse to be another sheep for the slaughter. I will be who I wish t be. I will follow my own dreams. My own path. I am my own.
It is ridiculous how inspirational you are. When you said you were "exactly who you wanted to be", that really made me wish I could say that about myself today. I'm 17 and still have lots of time to change that, and because of you I am planning to do just that.
Thank you Boogie.
i regret not telling my favorite singer how much he inspired me and how his music helped me through depression. i met him at a signing, but it felt awkward to tell him personally while the other band members were there. he left the band he was in and may never tour again
BIGGEST REGRET! When I was 21 I met my true love. I loved her with all my heart. My friends thought I deserved a better looking girl. They told me enough times that I eventually listen to them and broke it off. Ever since then I've dated many women, who my friends approved of. 15 years later, I'm still single because I've never met another girl who captured my heart and made me feel the way she did. ADVICE: Follow your hearts. Stop listening to idiots. Never take anyone or anything for granted.
I truly regret not having found your videos sooner! If only I found someone like you while I was in high school. I am a high school math teacher now, and I show my students your videos every once in a while. It is awesome to watch them sit in silence and listen to you.
I regret isolating myself more and more from friends and family for the past 2 years and now I've lost my best friend because of it. I regret losing my ambitions in my passions that I had not a year and a half ago, I regret being anxious and not trusting people as much as I should, even those that I love more than anything. I regret letting myself give up on what I was working on over years of time, and I hope that I can get myself to turn this all around soon.

I regret giving someone too much of my time who didn't deserve it; I regret not spending enough time with someone before she had to return home; I regret not having the courage to talk to a girl I had feelings for; I regret not working hard enough in school to be better educated; I regret not making new friends and meeting new people; I regret that I didn't tell my family I loved them more.

4:10 to 4:40 were perhaps my 30 favourite seconds of your channel so far, which is saying a lot. It really struck a chord with me, and it's something in my life I hope to work out sooner rather than later. MUCH sooner.
Oh yeah, "regret". :D
I regret a lot of things in life, Far too many to count. But one thing I regret the most is the fact that I never applied myself too much in school. I'm in the 8th grade. Your videos have really encouraged me when the going gets tough, I have to deal with depression, the pain of extremely weak ankle and knee bones, a divided house with two parents who are at constant conflict, etc. I had to cut this short but just know that your message is greatly inspiring. Please email me if you have time.
I don't regret anything yet, I stood up when I was getting bullied, am still in touch with my old friends, and have strong bond with anyone I enjoy being with.

3RD!
Boogie you are a special person and I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I've never heard anyone as intelligent and articulate as you when you explain life in general.
I regret not making enough of an effort to socialize in high school. I had moved to a new area right out of junior high and started grade 10 off being pretty depressed. I got so caught up in losing the old friends that i forgot to make new ones. Unfortunately i didn't realize this until it was to late for high school. But i'm proud to say my mistake has made me a much more social person today and I'm always interested in creating new connections with people.

My regret is disappointing my father as a child. One day he told me that he did want to see me again, and a few days later he was hospitalized from a heart attack. The worst month of my life, and i would give anything to forget it.
I am 14 and I don't regret much out of my life... if anything it would be not standing up for myself at times, I have a lot going for me and I am really thankful for that. I have joined in with a group that bullied someone back when I was a kid and I regret that but there is no really big regret that I have.
I don't really regret much at all in my life thus far. I'm young however and I'm sure that someday I will. However one of the people I look up to has said "In order to survive, you gotta learn to live with regrets." So I try to do just that, and continue living even past any regret.
not being more active towards a girl i liked for almost 2 years. she gave up on me because i was too nervous to talk to her, and when i finally did some guy came up from behind her and licked her on the cheek in front of me, then the next week i hear she's bi and has girlfriend. if i had done something maybe i could've made myself happier instead of wasting those days of being depressed.(I'm 16 and I've known this girl for 4 years, and i told her two months ago).
I regret my laziness and my forgetfulness. Sometimes I get caught up in things and don't get other, better things accomplished when I want to. My goals are to grow a friendly community on UA-cam, and I'm proud to say that my account was monetized today! I also wish to become a physical therapist when I am older.
I can't say I regret not speaking my mind, because I did a lot of it. I regret not making friends in school. I regret never having a girlfriend. I regret losing touch with the few friends I did have in school. I regret not having fun in my life. I regret not having a job I love. I regret all of the time I waste on the internet, except when I watch your videos that open my eyes. Thank you boogie. And I think I will make some phone calls tomorrow...
"Regret" isn't something that holds you back. Dwelling on something and not forgiving yourself for past mistakes is what keeps you from progressing in your life. I appreciate all the experiences (good and bad) I've been through in my life because it's given me the wisdom I have today. However if I had the power to go back and change certain things I would, as would most if not all other people. People will dance around the word "Regret" because of the stigma attached to it.
I do not regret watching this whole video. I learned a lot from watching this, it is always a pleasure to hear someone else's take on life. Thanks.
you got my 10 votes today boogie!...your videos are amazing! Ive tried telling myself that i dont regret anything because at the time I either wanted or not wanted to do the events. Well its time to stop kidding my self. I regret not taking workouts for football seriously. I messed around and because of that I injured myself and never got to continue my college career. Boogie you don't understand how helpful your videos are. I want to tell you Thank you...thank you for everything.
I 'Regret' making myself a full time carer of somebody who was sick. I gave her everything I had and she kept me in a constant state of stress. The verbal abuse and arguments got to he stage where I finally had enough being made feel guilty for wanting to leave my own life... from age 25 to 28.
I'm lucky I had my family around me to support me... and I'm moving on now : )
Boogie, you've made many video's that have ment a lot to me.
The least I can do is vote for you
Thanks mate
i regret not subbing you earlier...
but seriously - if I found out I was going to die tomorrow, assuming it was because I didn't look after myself, I would regret mostly not looking after myself. Not eating well. Not exercising. Smoking. Drinking. I don't smoke any more - did for 16 years though but i'm still guilty of the other things.
It's stupid that we don't look after ourselves better. It makes no sense at all.
Really love listening to you talk about stuff - really do. Keep going!
my regret was not finding this channel earlier because since the end of 2010 i was depressed and since i started watching boogie 3 weeks ago, i dont think i am anymore. thats why i signed up to vote 10 times a day for him.
I've seen your videos where you flip out and smash up an xbox. Maybe you're just making the point that life shouldn't be about being stuck in a fake reality, or maybe it's just to make people laugh. I can't say. But what I can say, is that seeing you speak from your heart about life and all it entails, is amazing. It's refreshing and inspiring. I'd like to see more of this and less of the shock factor vids. I hope you have continuing success on youtube and continue to enjoy making videos.
I regret alot of things. Mostly leaving the love of my life behind when I had to move. The worst thing was that it was my choice. I thought it was a good idea to move but I miss her and I realize that it was a bad choice. I know you'll never see this but I love you♥
My regret is gaming so much as a younger kid. It ruined my social and physical capabilities. I'm still trying to get past it, but It has left a big scar in my life. You're an Inspiration to me, boogie.
and im so proud to call myself a gamer too, i honestly think about it, at my age, 20, and think about my future and how i want to be a gamer my whole life, and that even though people may think it is a childish endeavor, its something that makes me extrememly happy, and a stress relief at the same time
I don't know your situation with your girl, but the best thing you can do if you truly love her is tell her how much she means to you. Tell her that if she thinks it's best for the two of you to separate that you'd support her decision wholeheartedly because you love her and want her to be happy, whether it's with you or with someone else. If you try and manipulate her into staying, she's more likely to leave and never return. Fight for her happiness and you'll end up happy as well. Good luck.
Finally got off my lazy ass and voted! It's so easy! I want to encourage everyone to do it too. I just logged in through my Facebook and boom, gave my ten votes for Boogie :D
I regret isolating myself from most of the ppl in my life, I mean...now that I think about it, it was the worst thing I done not only too my family and friends but mainly myself for letting the fear of the unknown stop me and finding the place in my mind that I was safe. Now I'm trying to break that pathetic habit and open up to ppl more freely.
I really am enjoying these comments. It show that a lot of boogies supporters have had difficulties in their lives and find the advice from boogie a good way to deal with these problems.
This was an amazing video
In terms of my regrets, I fought for happyness, stand up for myself when confronted, and I try to enjoy life.
My only huge regret would be for not taking as many opportunities or chances I could've, and that I've lived a very risk free life to avoid failure
There is a lot that I regret, but most of all is the lack of respect I had for my parents, when I was (early teen years) younger. I think about it and ask myself, if that's how I want my kids to act. God knows I deserve it.
Other things I regret:
1) Not going to my high school prom even though there was a girl that wanted me to go.
2) Lost contact with some old friends
3) Not spending enough time with friends and family
Boogie, thank you for making this video. It's a lot to think about.
I regret not having more regrets, because to make errors is how we learn. However for the regrets I do have. I thank goodness for them because they are shaping who I am, and who I will become - for the better.
VOTED!!!!
Everyone should vote.
Truth be told, Boogie2988 is the most sincere person on youtube with more insight and intelligence than probably the large majority of the people who upload videos. Anyone who puts in the time and effort to bring joy and happiness in others lives with humor should be rewarded in some respect. So let's just make this happen. FOR BOOGIE!!
im a new subscriber and i just wanted to let you know that I think this video really made me think differently about like. I do regret some things. I regret not getting out of my room and spending time with my family and friends, opposed to playing video games. Its those people i love so much that have so much more importance. This video has truly helped me. Thank you for the beautiful video.
That's why you deserve KotW, because you try to inspire people, and make them think about things they might not normally consider. You entertain with one video, and then get deep into an important topic the next. There's other people online who try to inspire, but how many of those seem genuinely cool or nice enough to just hang around with?
I was voting for Sandy, but after i have seen your videos, i am thinking of switching. I really like u, and ur down to earth, and a good guy. Good luck.
I regret losing my ex. I regret dropping out of highschool, not studying hard enough etc.
Sometimes i regret playing wow for 6 years, but i look back and i realise the fun times i had and the friends i made. I regret losing every single one of those friends.
If I died soon, like in the next couple of days without warning, I would regret:
1) Never telling my best friend since childhood, that I've basically been in love with her, she knows it I am almost positive but never telling her exactly how I feel, she has a boyfriend and has had a couple (all really great people who I get along with) and I am happy for her, but I'd love to just tell her one day exactly how I feel.
2) Never getting my culinary arts degree (I haven't started college yet).
I'm 21
I regret being a douche up until highschool. Upon becoming a freshman and being once more at the bottom of the totempole made me realize the error of my way, and I've tried to be much nicer ever sense. I am now a Senior in highschool, and things are really looking up.
I just stumbled across this channel thanks to the King of the web.
I must say this video was very heartfelt and you now have another supporter.
Keep it up!
good king boogie, if this comment happens to fall upon your eyes theres something i want to say. you are an inspiration to me man, I was also brought up the same way you were with vast similarities with you. mental problems, weight problems, financial limitations, etc. I often get down thinking about how dull and unsatisfying my life is.... This vid is exactly what i needed this morning and i want to say thanks man. all i know is now.. i dont wanna live my life with regrets... thanks brother.
I tend to not try to regret the things I've done, though there are some events I truly regret. One of them being not standing up to a bully. It was a daily hell going to class and knowing I would get picked on. I however, did nothing to defend myself. Now I've learned from my mistake. The only way to truly stop a bully, is to stand up to them. Speak up for yourself, because chances are, no one will speak for you.
Voted 10 times for you.
My regrets, well I have many sincere regrets. My one true regret is being born different (Asperges) and because of this, the world perceives me as different or that I don't belong. I regret sitting in this little room, wasting my life. Everyday my head tells me that what I'm doing is depressing, and that I'm wasting my precious time I have. I try block it away, but it always returns. I should listen to it. I want to get our of the chair and never sit back down.
I don't want to regret letting the girl i love, walk out of my life, currently, i am fighting for her, with all the energy in my soul. If i lose her, i'll regret it for my life. also, very nice video boogie, your words always are so inspirational, hope you get king of the web, you deserve it.
Boogie you're one hell of a guy forget all these haters you're going to the top. People need to hear what you have to say
My biggest regret is that i never tried my hardest in school and ohnestly tested my self to my limits to see successful i could truely be. i feel deep down i am intelligent person that has just had no drive in life do to depression such as family and other life problems. And it really hurts to look back at my highschool years knowing that i did not try my hardest and all i did was waste my talent by siting around and smoking weed all day. I am know 3 weeks sober and trying to better my life.
Voting for you each day mate, trust me when I say I don't think you'll have many regrets at all when the time comes, the amount of people you've helped deserves a lot of recognition.
you are a true inspiration to a lot of people boogie you got all my vote for king in the web and I don't regret that
I regret judging people. im sure people look at you and instantly judge you, and you know what its a god damn shame that they do because you really are a lovely and genuine person. Im 15, if i grow up and im half as happy as you, and im half as honest with my self as you, id be a happy man
I must say that i do love listening to you... you actually make a hell load of sense! Thank you :)
Very insightful. My biggest regret is not getting into UA-cam earlier and not getting into the gaming community sooner. Such a wonderful group of peeps here.
I regret wasting my early highschool years thinking about suicide, fearing the day I would wake up to go to school again. I regret never having the courage to comfront the bullies or the fact that I never begged to my parents to switch me from that school hell. I regret not being able to express my emotions properly, since I've always carried this doubt and fear towards people. I regret not staying in touch with the only true friend I had. And the thing I regret the most is, giving up.
Thank you for this video, boogie. I finally started thinking about my life. Maybe I will forget about it tomorrow, as I always do, but for now - thank you. Be happy.
I'm a senior in high school. I regret not getting to know people that I've gone to school with these past 13 years.
Regret nothing. You are who you are. And you deserve the life that you living.
Being a professional athlete is only experienced by less than 1% of the population. So you're in the company of most of the population. But you have the most precious thing on this earth and that is "Time." You're 19 years old and you can fulfil all the other things on your list and hundreds more. Just be patient and good things will eventually come into your life.
I regret not subscribing earlier, you are an inspiration, your philosophy has made me a better and happier person!
well boogie my regret is not spending more time with my parents, about 3 weeks ago i found out my mom has cancer and they give her 6months to a year, i have to say i have called,visited her more in these 3 weeks and thought about her more than i think i have in the last 5 years, and it hurts a lot being so busy with work and all the other stuff you forget what is really important in life
I used to regret my drug addiction, but its taught me so much ab out myself and others that i wouldnt trade the experience for anythng now that im clean, great vid boogie
I reget that I never got to say goodbye to my friend when she died. I remember when she called at my house, and when I got to answer the phone, i talked to her about my gf and how i think that she doesn't love me anymore or some kinda stupid thing like that. I remember how she told me to just hang in there. I will find love one day and I thought she was going to be ok. In the morning, my mom told me she was gone. Goodbyes are funny that way. You never know you get another one.
i regret not spending more time in my life to make others happy, its my goal in life to be happy myself and make everyone around me feel warm and happy. :) love you so much boogie, really do
All daily votes on you boogie! I regret not voting yesterday.
I totally agree with your comment. It was nice chatting with you too. All the best.
If you have regrets about past relationships keep this in mind...."Never cry for lost love, true love will stay, and true love will last, no matter what."
Boogie. Please Shake my hand. I am in a bad spot right now, I have goals, and I have been running in circles lately. My regrets, is just not going after what I wanted when I was 16 years old, now I'm 21 almost 22, and I am JUST NOW working for my private pilots license. I just once would like someone to say, "hey man, you can do it, I see that you have it in you" but that never happens. I vote for you everyday, I even put you in the title of one of my videos. I wish I had more to say..but I suck
I regret alot of the things on the list but making time for my dreams mostly. thank you boogie for posting videos like this. I believe it will help me take this day in a new direction, much love my friend.
I have a friend of mine helping out as well with voting. I will post this up on my Facebook to try and get you more votes man.
You deserve to win!
My biggest regret as of now is being closed. Not open or willing to do or enjoy new things. Not doing what I really want because I think someone may not like it. I am still young, I intend to change this.
I do not ever regret listening to your wisdom.
Boogie you're one of those people that i will listen too undoubtedly. one in a million
I don't. I don't really have any regrets, I'm still quite young. I'm still trying to make a name for myself. I am happy. I'm living the truest life I can.
My constant attempts to make other people happy often leave me unhappy.
I am a Type E personality. If you ask for a highlighter, and I only have one, I'll probably give you that highlighter. I am by no means a saint but I try far to hard to appease others.
My biggest regret, though, was that I did not find your channel until 2010.
My only regret is not coming to the realization that I am not all those things people called me in school sooner. That I am a good person and that there is no point in listening to the negative things people have to say about me. If I had realized that I would have been much more confident in myself.
My regret would be not being more social in high school, have a girl friend and make friends who didn't pick on me all the time.
I've learned from my mistakes back then, I have friends now that I feel comfortable being around and I don't worry about relationships, if I find the one that's right for me then it will happen in its own time.
I wish I was around my computer this weekend to help vote. You got my 10 Monday votes
Hey, that king of the web thing let me vote twenty times today!! I don't know what I did, but there you go Boogie!
Voting for you Boogie. I don't agree with your some of your political views buts that's OK. You are still miles ahead of 99% of the people on UA-cam.
Wow! Boogie you just changed my life in 9 minutes thank you, Hope I end up like you someday.
I regret the fact that I will probably never meet you in person. You are the greatest type of person.
Life goes on day after day
Hearts torn in every way...
People they rush everywhere
Each with their own secret care...
People around every corner
They seem to smile and say
We don't care what your name is boy
We'll never turn you away...
So I'll continue to say
Here I always will stay...
.
So ferry, 'cross the Mersey
'cause this land's the place I love
and here I'll stay
.
[Gerry Marsden]
My book isn't closed yet and I am busy looking forward. You are a great dude.
I've watched this video several times, and I still enjoy it.
I have major social phobias, problems, whatever you may call it. As a result, I rarely talk to people, and am just a nervous wreck all around. My biggest regret is that I haven't taken the strong efforts to interact with people as often. I feel like I'm wasting my life for the most part, to be honest.
Boogie, I always hope you make long videos. I love listening to you express your feelings and giving me your input. I seriously love you. I hope as a UA-camr (Different Account) one day I can make it this far.
You got my votes Boogie! My only real regret is my paranoia and constant anger.
I regret not telling people i know that i love and care, how i feel about them. i also regret not trying to fix my old relationship with my ex..and last i regret not eating well. There is more regret but don't wanna say.. thank you boogie :D hope you win!
My biggest regret was changing who I was just to keep and fit in with my so called "friends." I would go against everything I believed in, just so I would have friends and fit in. When i look back I realized how fucking insecure I was with myself.
Luckily in the last year, I've abandoned those people. I refuse to become a fucking drone and follow the crowd. I refuse to be another sheep for the slaughter. I will be who I wish t be. I will follow my own dreams. My own path. I am my own.
