- Friends turned against friends, families fragmented, and communities dissolved into factions. The InfoStat's narratives, once a source of solace, became increasingly absurd, yet the population clung to them desperately. The craving for a semblance of order in the growing chaos compelled the citizens to embrace even the most fantastical tales spun by the faltering InfoStat.
I love how Stewart's calendar is full of figures and the accessories to go with them. Likewise, I also love that Dan's calendar is also full of accessories to go with Stewart's figures!
They are the Barbenheimer calendars afterall
I wish I could see Stewart's calendar, but at least they also go with the figures from Stuart's calendar.
😂😂😂
Hiding the 9 in "optical illusions" is top tier.
Beat me to it! :)
They knew.
Remember folks, at the beginning Dan wanted the OFAH calender
Ilke asking for the n64 over a ps1 haha
@@adamdenby1282 Nah, the n64 had some really good games on it and a decent lifespan before being replaced with the Gamecube. This is more like asking for an Atari Jaguar instead of a Super Nintendo.
Very ture but ps1 hade metal gear sold @@Pipkiablo
@@Pipkiabloif you were a Jrpg fan back in the 90's the N64 would of been pretty disappointing compared to the PS1.
@@Pipkiablo Continuing on from @adamdenby... And Gran Turismo, Tomb Raider, Resident Evil, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, et cetera, et cetera... Entire franchises beats "some really good games." Also, the PS1 had a longer lifespan than the N64, 1994 - 2006 vs 1996 - 2002. One last twist of the screw: there's a N64 emulator for the *PlayStation2.*
No, Adam was right.
The OFAH calendar never fails to disappoint everyone
Hey, hey! I know we all love the disappointment of the OFAH calendar, but let's all remember the figures and music/"dancing".
I was looking at it was going to buy it glad i didn't now
Dan has probably been thanking his lucky stars that the Exercise punishments went missing. Had it not gone missing we would have probably witnessed Dan dying of Exercise live on film.
Would've certainly been a Christmas to remember.
Either that, or he would have became very healthy and muscular. In the 2024 advent videos he would have looked like young Arnold Schwarzenegger with Dan's face.
@Boltscrap I mean... he didn't become cheese man did he? He became weak against cheese so I think if it translates he would become frail and brittle
(It was planned that the exercise calendar wouldn't be done because of Dan's vasectomy so they had to explain away the lack of exercise somehow)
Whenever Ashens says “Bloody hell” I always expect an “Are we still doing these?” to follow
Now I'm just imagining Stewart's head covered in stickers like a suitcase. Like you get a new sticker in each place you visit.
I vote for this to happen by the 25th 😂
...do you reckon that's what day 24 is?
A small briefcase to put all the stickers on?
@@Torchyc But how would they organise it all? After all, since they're filming these every day, they'd have to keep taking the stickers on and off, so the adhesive would wear off.
It'd never work. /s
@@tornadoawe maybe multiple stickers or one of them silk caps to keep everything in place 🤔 🤣
Jeez took Dan 9 days to drink that can of Tango..
Why was the Woozle money fake US money instead of fake Euros…
because dollars are much easier to forge /jk
Given someone in europe fake dollars is safer than giving them fake euros
I was confused about that too. You would think at the most it would be a parody of a currency a German child would actually know.
Because Euros don't have people on them, and they had to incorporate Woozle Goozle somehow
Aren’t Euros usually already weird colors and reminiscent of plastic? Bcuz if they are then there’d be better odds of fake euros passing as real ones compared to American bills with their cotton blend paper and duller color schemes. And the last thing that German company would want is to get caught up in a counterfeit scandal or something stupid
I still can't believe they are definitely filming these episodes every day! Also the only fools calendar is giving me depression
I can’t believe Nerdcubed lets Ashens stay in his house for a full month every year.
Stick me head inside the oven,
Attach the hosepipe to the van...
@@DarthPerkins
Tried that. Failed.
Electric oven, electric van.
I suppose you could say… only fools would buy it.
“Went missing”
How sad that the calendar with the cheap soldier figures is by far the biggest bang for your buck; some of these companies just spit in your face with the tat they charge the same price for, as the soldier calendar.
the cheap military figures might be the best calender for kids ever on this channel.
For being cheap soldier figures, it has a surprising variety of items. So far there has not been a single repainted figure or accessory, which is what you would expect from something like this.
Good work on the soldier figures, they can actually hold the weapons and their faces don't look like Jackson Pollock painted them while on acid.
Because the other three calendars blew all their money on the licenses, and thus couldn't afford to put in nice stuff. All the money for the cheap army men calendar went into the cheap army men
Tragically, it's the Woozle Goozle one that I'm most disgusted by.
I thought a German-made science calendar for kids would actually have some interesting things for your little horrors to amuse themselves with, but it's all half-arsed garbage you'd be embarrassed to find in a Tesco value Christmas cracker.
"Put the rolled up fake note in a testube..."
OK. Where's the test tube? THEY DIDN'T INCLUDE IT!!!!
You two are such boys! I 100% think the cute pony beats ANOTHER soldier!! Lol
🦄 is the winner in my book! 💖
Every year, I wonder how Dan is going to recover from his Advent calendar. The unicorn wasn't bad, but he just can't get a win.
The unicorn would be right at home next to handjob elf
On the ninth day of Advent, these two blokes gave to me
Stealth Guy and lame horse
Dirtbike and a comb
Snow gear and a cap thing
Soldier and mermaid tail
Some fancy guns!
Barbie and a box of weapons
Tech gear and a brush
Backpacks, shoes and dancers
And Some guff that is generic
Also can I just say, Ashen's head is prime real estate for all those lame stickers
The OFAH calendar is named after its target audience, rather than the show
Lessons to learn from this year's Advent Marathon:
1. Non-chocolate AdCals are mostly ripoffs.
2. When you expect the least, that's when you get pleasantly surprised.
3. A license goes a long way.
4. The Army Men calendar looked to be the crappiest, but is actually the only one legitimately worth buying and which appears to have had some care and thought put into it.
More like non-food ones, the spices calendar was damn good
The LEGO ones are usually pretty good, and they're surprisingly the same price as these.
@@kevinm5940 Yeah, there is no going wrong with a calendar full of mini-figures (and I'm guessing some scenery/accessories).
I got my sisters and I advent calendars and the tea one my sister has is good she's told me, and I'm actually pleasantly surprised with my Jurassic World one. The Littlest Pet Shop one for my youngest sister I could see being a disappointment for some people, but since she's an LPS collector, she's pleased with even the crappy accessories that came with the pets, so it's all really a matter of interpretation.
Army men at £10 - great. At £25 it’s just as miserable as the rest.
Nothing says stealth quite like Wesley Snipes in Blade rolling up on a unicorn with a stop sign and unloading a submachine gun right into your face.
That is an amazing mental image.
Some motherfuckers are always trying to unicorn gallop uphill
That science advent calendar is just sad some days. This experiment can be performed with literally anything, and actually works best with something made of cloth. Will kids really like Woozle Goozle play money?
Today my fancy German chocolate calendar gave me a chocolate ball filled with amaretto cream. Not as good as the whiskey or champagne ones, but these liquor ones have been my favorites so far, and this one held up. Good stuff.
Peckham Spring has greater relevance to the Ashensverse, due to it facilitating a Tom Scott connection where he recounted the disastrous UK launch of Dasani, and later got to try an old bottle of the stuff in Stuart's 70's-style conservatory bar. He got a big waft, and the taste hit him like a lorry.
Also, I'm pretty sure there's a taxidermied unicorn in The Witcher 3.
The unicorn is to scale, it's part of the "Barbie's first Unicorn Veal Farm". That little unicorn is going to make some delicious steaks...
would it really have cost that much more to just put a small piece of chocolate in each door of the OFAH calendar
Nerdcubed has stumbled upon the lucrative prospect of renting out advertising space on Ashen's head. Maybe they'll add that as a kickstarter bonus! ;-)
Not gonna lie, since Dan tricked us with the punishment calendar fake out, kind of enjoying his misery lol
I laughed far more than I should have at Barbie's unicorn face-plant.
now Dan only needs a jar for his unicorn!
I do like that the added twist of the knife to the Only Fools and Horses calendar is that the stickers are that "FLAT" "DESIGN" Meaning, save for a few required direct references that these could end up in other places since I'm sure they're public domain, royalty free clip art.
I give more credit to Dan's calendar. Stickers slightly win over colored paper that magically doesn't get wet when you don't put it in water. A unicorn though! I would argue the unicorn figure is on par with the stealth man, mainly the ability to easily stand upright vs the articulation. I would say Dan won overall.
And here I was afraid for a moment that Dan might win a day.
Aw, I want to see K9 with the jumper on!
Today's Woozle Goozle gave me an ominous flashback to "United Magic of Magic"
I re-watched every day 8 yesterday. That bill was day 8 of whichever year it was.
@@murryjackson9053 2018
03:25 The magic trick was:
Submerge the money perfectly straight - it won’t get wet.
But if you submerge it in an angle - it will get wet.
The text below explains the science behind it.
i saw that sticker and thought "yep that's going on his head"
6:36 make me a cup of tea too!......please?!
For 25 quid that military calender is effing amazing. Probably the best value for money they've ever gotten
I caught that intro to Dayman after 'Day Nine' there Dan. Classic.
I can't believe OFAH actually won one. 🤣
What a day! First Nerd won with Stickers. And even pulled out a nicely sculped figure out of his box. But then Ashens got a nicer, articulated figure out of his box. And in the end Nerd lost. Winning one game with absolute minimum effort, losing the next one because it was just okay-ish, resulting in a total lost. It´s like Germany at the World Cup.
I play along every day with my Malteasers advent calendar and almost always win
The small wings are for the pony!!!
I wish they would’ve done the exercise punishments watching dan do them every day would’ve been almost as funny as the cheese calendar. And instead of lactose intolerance Dan would’ve had a sixpack by the end of the month
"Every time I am disappointed by the OFAH calendar... I do _one_ pushup."
They do those all in one day and Dan has apparently recently gotten a vasectomy.
I'm 100% convinced that the military men calendar also comes as a police men variant with blue instead of green; hence the stop sign.
A Douglas Adams reference is always a welcome gift 😀
Happy Birthday
Thank you! You're a bit early so I've got time to decide what to buy!
I think stickers are supposed to decorate the dance party box and then they are supposed to dance with it all pretty
The gi joes calendar seems to be the best and fairly good quality over all
Watching this on my TV, and my dog was OBSESSED with the unicorn, so she thinks Dan won. 🦄🐶
One nation under Woozle Goozle
watching these is my favorite holiday tradition
The unicorn is a unicorn tho. That should count for something. Stealth guy is just a weird stealth guy.
The tiny wings are for the pony!
I would find it hilarious if they just got a chocolate advent calendar and still competed against eachother, like it was one of these kind
Also can I say that I'm disappointed with the lack of suffering so far, bring back the cheeses!
OFAH calendar is truly the popstation of the advent calendar world.
Best thing out of that day was Stealth guy!
7:47 Come Shadowsparkles! We need to get da bad guys.
"Riding the unicorn" sounds like a euphemism.
It might replace "chasing the dragon".
The unicorn has reincarnated from the magical friendship with elves callander
Imagine if some of the stickers are highly collectable and are selling for hundreds sadly it ends on just imagine.
Whatdya mean the stickers won? Against Captain Jack Sparrow’s folding money???
yoooo, Stuart's stealth guy reminds me of JC Denton from Deus Ex because of the sunglasses.
I appreciate Stuart looking at this year's german calendar while saying "Nein, nein, nein"
Bring back the Wera calendar! And the spices 😂
Anyone under 30 who’s a fan of Tom Scott knew the answer to the OFAH trivia despite never having watched an episode
I can't believe Dan's been drinking out of the same drink can for 9 days in a row and it still hasn't gone flat!
The unicorn is Butt Stallion, from the Borderlands games.
I kid you not, that exists.
More proof that Chap Mei figures are just plain cool. That said, they could've done a much cooler calendar concept with like knights vs. modern soldiers vs. pirates with the crazy variety of stuff they've made over the years.
He's got dark glasses, he's got lighter armour than the others...
He say, "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together, right now
Over me ! :)
I thought the unicorn was better than the hardly painted guy.
Unicorn taxidermy is a Witcher thing... 😏
I think the weird tiny wings might fit onto the unicorn? At least hopefully they do otherwise they're super useless
🎶 Stick a pony in her pocket...🎶
That Soda that Dan is drinking is 9 days old now....
The problem with the OFAH calendar is I am not sure the demographic of people who watched and loved Only Fools And Horses is the same as the group who want to sticker their fandom over their pencil cases. I was never a fan of OFAH or stickers so maybe it just isn't the one for me.
A Hitchhiker's reference, yay :)
I personally must argue that the stealth guy and the unicorn should have tied, they were both decent chunky figures that would've won the day any other day, ergo Dan should've gotten the victory today.
On the other hand, gaining a point for the stickers would've likely killed him. XD
Never seen OFAH but I knew that trivia from Tom Scott's video about the failure of Dasani in Britain
I liked the part where Ashens was looking at the German calendar and saying, "no no no no no no no"
Stealth Guy reminds me of the Green Lantern from the Justice League Animated Series
'It's very rigid', as the actress said to the Bishop.
I'm a reliable reindeer!
I remember when this series was meant to find the best worst calendar now it's all about making Stuart and Dan suffer
I picture Stealth Guy with Samuel L Jackson's voice and saying "Stop or I will shoot your ass!"
I've not heard anyone say "dingo's kidneys" in a while!
Dan's sticker should score another point, because "Trotters International Traders" acronyms out to TIT
Woozle Goozle aka the Breaking Bad lite calendar.
Stealth guy looks like he's wearing a gimp mask 😂. Poor unicorn
I wait for this every year and let me say, I am not disappointed
Well since that 20 actually supposed to work as an experiment I think a draw because of the trivia question saving dan
Stuart got Woozle Wonga.
I'm really sad you didn't do a proper loser calender this year. My fav has always been the cheese. 😊
Cant believe the OFAH calendar had a Tom Scott reference
OH my GOD! It's FANTASY MAN! Fantasy man fantasy man, fantasy man fantasy man, fantasy man fantasy man....
The stickers really won, because, I mean, doesn't ANYTHING stay dry in the conditions of that test? Yeah stealh guy is really cool, looks like a dude just out of a BDSM dungeon but fitting the bike gave him several points
i been waiting 9 days already for you to realise the musical tv calendar have that music button which may or may not change music track based on which lower doors are opened because you may rip a grounding foil or something opening those and electronic brain selecting different music
if that was a feature you can't really put it back because you would have to reconect all the opened door back in order to listen to song from a precious day
Not that it would beat stealth guy but I bet the small wings are for the pony
The fact that Dan went 9 days resiting the urge to put a sticker on Stuart's head is worrying. Who are you and what have you done with the real Dan?
Sorry the stickers did not win that. This is just Dan claiming a victory and Stewart not even bothering to fight. Probably doesn't want to annoy Dan so he will be in his new movie.
this cures my depression and makes me happy have a merry Christmas boys
1:48 It was my uncle's birthday today. xD
Ashens: Does this calendar have a door for today?
Aventskalender: Nein
