Yo can we get an official release of that end song?
When is the cutoff date for the NakeyJakey Wonderful Amazing but Random Dog Shit Fair?
Nice nod to Lego Island there Jakey. ua-cam.com/video/smhukUzP3UI/v-deo.html
HUGE RELATE
Was that a Madvillainy sample in this video? When you said you’d get Mad Libs. The laughing sample from the track “Do Not Fire!”.
Nostalgia is oozing from this one

Mom buy me spy gadgets
Your not relevant anymore
We really all lived the same childhood in different households jesus
i remember running around trying to get all the shit i wanted first so no one would take it before me
Cunnilingus oh damn
gianna lmao I remember I got my books at the end of school instead of the beginning so Half the stuff I wanted was taken
Ikr
...Damn. ( ._.)
the book fair just made me appreciate that the library is free
No Minecraft or gaming handbooks?!
*Impossible perhaps the Library is incomplete*
General kenobi
Hello there
lol not me, i prefer to OWN my books.
Honestly as a librarian I just think the book fair is not ethical. Worst of all the money didn't even go to my library from what I'm gathering at. It went to an organisation that used my space so they can have their book fair.
The scholastic fair made me know I was poor lmaooo
Yup same
No doubt! Lol
Yup lol
I feel your pain lol
Same
This is the most 00's primary/elementary school thing
I was in elementary in the 80's and still found this completely relatable
@@umphreak9999 nice job matt
90’s too.
@@whatsoperadoc7050 nice job
Look, as long as I get legos and cool artwork I’m good.
We're probably like 10-15 years apart, but the nostalgia is the same.
Same but add different country to that as well
@@lettherebegames8 Guess it's one of those small things that have never changed nomatter the year or place.
So you’re 10-15?
@@ava_a313 do they still do these in elementary schools?
@@georgewhitenotbrown7185 yes
I’ve been running those book fairs since 2008 and some things have remained staples: the erasers that look like smart phones and the ones that look like Xbox controllers. Also, the “Spy” (uv light) pens are ever-popular as well as finger pointers, like primary classroom teachers use with reading charts, Word Walls and such. The only thing that changes about those things are the colors. For example, we are always given 4 different color variations of the uv light pens, usually black, white, and two others. The prices have remained pretty much the same until very recently.
I now have former students coming back as teachers. One asked about the “smelly” erasers. I had totally forgotten about them. They really smelled good. Oh, the chocolate calculators have always been around though. Their scent really lasts for a very long time!
And yeah, books. We do sell books.
What types of books are popular with elementary school kids these days?
@@luigi7834 Croc 2
Do they still have the mushroom eraser pencil sharpener combo?!
@@kylejarmolych No. I had forgotten about those! They should make them again. Mushrooms are popular again.
@@luigi7834 Dog Man and Cat Kid Comic Club. If you don’t know what those are, they are the graphic novel spin-offs of Captain Underpants by Dav Pilkey. Those are the most popular. Oh, and Jory John is popular with the K-3 set. He has a series of picture books that are good for learning about emotions and attitudes and such without being preachy. The OG is called “The Bad Seed.” For chapter books, historical fiction / adventure books are popular, like the “I Survived” series by Lauren Tarshis. But mostly graphic novels are super popular. For girls, anything by Raina Telgemeier is popular.
My first introduction to the concept of sales tax took place at a scholastic book fair. I had brought five dollars from home to buy a $5 book, and was confused as all hell when the librarian told me I didn't have enough money.
"my brother in Christ your job is paid for by my parents paying taxes"
No ones talking about the erasers that looked like $100 bills
Omg I remember those
Omg i remember that lol
NinerGang 9 9 9 dued I forgot about that until you mention it
The erasers that looked like iPods were all that i remember
NinerGang 9 9 9 they still make them I got one a week ago
When Jakey said "alright fine go get my purse" I felt that
Third Reich Gaming 😂😂
We all did
Fucking hell I cried.

Bruh sammmee 😂😂
I remember getting some miniature pizza kit, it basically just had tiny cookie cutters to make the crust and tiny pepperoni…. I was so pumped about it but my mom was like wtf that money was for books
Tiny pizza > books
🤣🤣🤣
Diary of a wimpy kid, Percy Jackson,
Harry Potter, Tom gates were my childhood friends
but diary of a wimpy kid will always be a book series in my heart.
I remember seeing a little girl grabbing a whole bunch of books and the librarian said “how much you have?” And the girl said “14 cents.” I felt so bad for her.
@@aamiwaami lucky
Awwwwwwww :(
Monke is king
One time there's a book that only has 1 left and my friend grabbed it before anyone could, just for her mom to *give it to another kid who asked*

Kids who wear AirPods< kids who bought the Guinness Book Of World Records at the Scholastic book fair
Lol
What if I am both of those kids? 🤔
Kids who but the guinness book of world record book fair < kids who bought that big book about games that I own but forgot the name of
What about Ripleys belive it or not
And the gamer edition of it
I have PTSD from when the time this kid bought the whole ’I survived’ trilogy at a book fair for $22 and I wanted pointer finger and a bookmark that came out to $10
*in conclusion scholastic is just one big Ponzi scheme*
My Scholastic PTSD is the time I wanted some spy gear from the book order but when my parents filled the form out they checked the wrong item and a month later instead of my cool spy gear I got the novelization of Flushed Away
@@graysonelliott6115 off not even the game
trilogy? bro there are 200 editions of that books
I read the fuck out of those I survived books lmao
I think i legit saw one of these books at the local Barnes and nobles and my jaw completely dropped when I saw they made a book about 9/11. At that point I knew i was old as fuck. Like holy shit…that took me back a few. It must be like a new kids book series or some shit
Man the scholastic book fair was the most magical thing at school. You can say it’s like the Disney or the Universal at school.
“Alright fine go get my purse” is the most nostalgic thing I’ve ever heard
Gcldfvnch I would hear those 6 words but in spanish 😂😂😂😂 I miss the book fair
I still hear this
@@Sira111_ "Está bien traeme la cartera"
my mum didnt have a purse 😥
@Dani Mals it hurts man, it hurts
I remember in the 1st grade I wanted to buy a captain underpants book but my parents said no so i just went under my couch and found 37 cents. I went to the book fair got the book and paid 37 cents for it. They gave me a 10 dollar book for 37 cents.
*S T O N K S*
Probably because it cost them 5 cents when they bought them in bulk.
That’s the most saddest but also optimistic redemption art shit I’ve ever heard in all day.
Their is still faith in humanity.
aww bless the person who sold you that 🥺
LOL
I say this 100% genuinely, I used to be so goddamn sad as a kid that we were always too poor for me to get anything that I swore my kids would always get something. We're broke as fuck but they always get as much as I can spare because I've been the poor kid and I know how much it sucks
Sameeeeeee. We werent that poor but my mom NEVER gave me any money for school, not for the book fair or to buy snacks, and when the book fair came around I would always see my friends buy stuff and I was just standing there. Mind you, it hurts even more because I was a nerd. From 1st grade to 6th grade, my lunch periods consisted of going to the library and reading (more like devouring) a book every day. So you can imagine, the book fair with cool new books that I couldn't buy.
I swore to myself that if I had the disposable income and my kids liked reading, I would never do this to them. It was a HORRIBLE feeling.
Let's be honest, everyone wanted the invisible ink pens but the first classes that went in the morning always bought them all
The “alright fine go get my purse” made me lose my mind with laughter bc how could I forget such a liberating sentence
Lol
As a child it was a HUGE relief of tension when she said those beautiful words.
@@A_penguin_from_matmart4928 same😂
Back then, the School Fair was like a carnival coming to town.
Funny that you say that because when ever the scholastic book fair happened one or two men wearing clown masks and other wired shit would arrive in a giant tricycle covered in weird shit, You would see them at local fairs very occasionally. they would ride around the school Neighborhood, park their trike at the front of the school and would drive off after a few days, about just under a week felt like a fair. the tricycle terrified the shit out of me as a kid, it had a fake Decapitated head on the front of it. the book fair was cool Though lots of good memories there with friends.
Yep. Our librarian would make everybody help set up and yell at us. The fair itself was full of shit. For us, it was like a carnival if we were the janitors.
It litteraly was we had rides and shit
That’s where I stole Scary Stories to Tell in The Dark
It definitely was 🤣
I call dibs on Sideways Stories from Wayside School and Goosebumps.
Y’all remember when they gave you wishlists and they were just there to remind you you cant afford that?
Omg yesssss
@@deezburr yeah
Scholastic Book Fair Starterpack:
-Kid who buys lots of shit.
-Parents giving you at most $5 for it.
-Stealing those cool erasers.
-All the boys going batshit over the latest Diary of The Wimpy Kid book.
-Looking at all the cool books that were too expensive for 10 year olds.
Remember being limited to bringing £5 on school trips for the gift shops :O
@@emmahealy4863 €5 is not $5 but still a little
and that one girl who just bought the spy pen and earasers
Don't forget LEGO Star Wars books
I was the kid who couldn't buy anything till the fair was almost over and so most of the good shit was gone
When that one kid bought the pointer finger so the teachers pointer isn’t legendary anymore
*that kid was me*
AnUnknownPerson *I was also a warrior risking their lives for that at my school*
That one kid: Bow down to me my faithful subjects, for I am your savior.
I was the one who had the invisible marker to write cuss words and randomly laugh out of nowhere

The scholastic book fair
The only place you can buy a star wars paper plans book and they have it ripped up by your brothers.
I stole one of those pens that retracted when you folded them in half in the fourth grade and some girl found out and tattled on me but the librarian was like "oh no I remember you paying for it, cause you did right?." That's the most guilt I've ever felt in my life and had she not been so gracious it probably would have been the start of a light criminal streak. That's why the first part of Les Miserables will always make me cry. Sometimes just giving somebody the silver will cost you nothing and will mean for them everything.
@Eric Kim I once stole a peppermint candy from the store and my older brother saw me and made me put it back. A few weeks later I stole his wallet to buy a peppermint candy.
I learned my lesson tho
You brought me back, I remember girls being just the scum of the earth in elementary school. They got joy out of telling on ya, they didn't like anything that was cool, and they acted like they were made of glass (break out crying from the lightest push). I think it mostly stopped after maybe 3rd or 4th grade, but before that they were basically unlikable, moving land mines.
Damn
@TES Enthusiast ...If it wasn't for those... Pesky kids.
What school did y'all go to? The girls at mine always tried to cut themselves with rocks
Does anyone remember buying those 20$ LEGO encyclopedias just for the figure
Not Odin Aye
Totally
Me
Yes
Absolutely, those were the only things I ever bought.
At my school we had used book fairs. They weren’t scholastic. Like every Christmas people would donate books and then we could go around and buy beaten up books (they were never in good condition, it was like buying old public library books) for more money than a new one would cost! I don’t know if scholastic did book fairs here in Ireland, but if they did we didn’t get them.
My mom bought a nocturnal animal book with pop-ups and a section of how to identify nocturnal animals by their footprints. It's one of my cherished memories.
I loved the smell of the books, popcorn, i loved the vivid colors, the games, puzzles, toys, and the excitement!
Hey guys I don't mean to brag or anything but I totally have the 2006 Guinness Book of World Records if anyone wants to come over and read it with me
Fr bro lemme get a quick peek at it for a couple....eternities
U stole it from school library na
Yo I got the 2012 one my guy. Wanna trade?
ANYTHING FOR YOU SLIMECICLE
i have that one( i think) or some other year where i was only interested in the worlds fattest man
Who else’s classes were always hyped for the new copy of Diary Of A Wimpy Kid
lol every year
Yes! My school library actually got rid of it cause when we went there, we would all run to that shelf, and literally fight for them.
I still am cuz I dont have a life. Can I read it in half an hour? Yes. Do I have tremendously better things to do? Yes. Do I care? No.
DashFlash omg, yes, My mom got a hardcover book for me, from Walmart, Everyone was so jealous because the book in the book fair would be a normal cover, not even hard
everyone's class lol.
my mom used to be a cashier for my bookfair. All my classmates thought I got free books, and I got to spend the whole day there reading all the books.
Best Outro song. Real happy that this was the one I happen to get in. This entire video is so great. Gonna go play Lego Island.
I remember those invisible pens.
Samurai JackOff they were cancer
omfg
I wrote penis on a school bathroom with those once in third grade
Samurai JackOff I only bought those
Lmao someone once grabbed them and ran out the library and the librarian just had their mouth ooen
Every single person bought invisible ink pens in my school, and every single person lost them after a week.
id lose my pen too if it were invisible
Turns out it's just a regular pen for a week and THEN it becomes invisible.
I still have one of those on my book shelf but it stoped working like 6 years ago

This is the first video I've seen of yours and I love your delivery mad props
Our last book fair was the winter of last year and they had a Shigaraki journal. I got it so fast and never used it because I havent been able to find one like it. I love the artwork on it and the gold rim complements the grey and black cover.

Wait a minute, this aint youporn...
I like dinosaurs
You two should just team up... or dye your hair funny colors, thats cool too

Those "eraser phones" were the only thing I cared about at the Book Fair
The book fair just reminded me everytime how poor my ass was lol
Rolf!!! Me too!
Same bro.
Shit was expensive af
Right like a pencil that would brake when you got home was ten dollars
I knew better than to ask for anything so I put the catalog right in the trash
They banned invisible pens in my school because everybody kept writing swear words and pps on people arms

Jakey, I can't stop binging all your old content because we literally lived the exact same childhood. It's so insane...you describe things EXACTLY how they were, exactly how I thought about them. Love it!
I'm from the Philippines and our scholastic book fairs are no different. It's honestly wild to see that they stayed super consistent regardless of the country they're in. My favorite purchase was their voice recorder spy pens, it sounded terrible but I felt cool having one!

I remember having a pointer finger and books I loved but I always wanted the drumsticks, highlighters, and a bunch of the other junk. You forgot "Sorry sweetie you don't have enough you've gotta put something back..."
The madlib laugh was great at 1:44
I didn’t notice it until now
I remember wanting the cheat book and then realizing I could just write down the codes, I felt like I was committing some huge crime and was scared that someone would see me
While all the kid are buying spy gadgets, you're actually becoming a spy mate lol
Learned of the spy gadgets
I remember when i had yugioh for gba
I found out that you can put rl card in your game by looking at the serial number in the left bottom corner
And i would not hesitate to ask anyone who have yugioh cards
Basically i was stealing people cards without actually stealing them
I even bought a notebook on all the card's i could find
I would go to the grocery store with my mom with a pencil and paper and go to the magazine section and write down cheat codes from tips and tricks magazines. Fuck man the nostalgia is real.
I feel this way to the free cheats on the internet. Or when I use a mod for a game
"Mom, I need money for rent."

Loved to load up on Goosebumps books and eraser caps in the 90s. Trip down memory lane for an OG Millennial.
My brother would always buy the latest Guinness Book of World Records book each year when we were kids. He also collected Ripley's Believe it or not books and almanacs as well.
Does any one remember the big erasers that said something along the lines of “Big Eraser for BIG Mistakes”?
bub lmao
I have a gun eraser that says for big mistakes.
My friend gave it to me
@dion! Same
@dion! I'd rub it on my friends
I had one and i gave it to a friend and its just become a running joke between my friend group to pass it to someone when the do something stupid

I actually was setting up a book fair when Jakey uploaded.
"I'm fat Jesus" is by far and away the greatest pateron shout-out ever, he could throw the whole thing up on Spotify and I would happily listen to it from time to time because it's soo good
I remember in 2nd grade when the first Minecraft Hand book and the red stone handbook came out. I was the only kid in the whole school who had them. I felt like a king. People lined to read them. Then the combat handbook and the construction handbook came out, and I bought those too. I was a living legend. I was the coolest kid in school. I had all 4 Minecraft handbooks. Nothing could stop me. I still have them to this day.
i remember some kids would roll up with blank checks from their parents, that was such a flex man
Ahaha I remember this was the only thing my parents would use cheques for .
One day my friend only brought coins so he made the cashiers count the coins. It was like a couple dollars in coins but it was still something.
@@eri7817 My parents would use checks at book fairs, but also for anything else school-related.
I remember I thought I lost one of those checks in 2nd grade and I swear I was scared my life was over
AmyOverby weird flex .. but ok
Chocolate calculator. I swear that was all I want from the book fair.
lol I bought one of those xD
I bought one and lost it a year later. It lost its wonderful scent after a couple days. :(
Trust me, you don't want it. Mine lost its scent.
Mine smelled like crap
fight me bitch. I got one in 4th
Oh man, I remember going through the catalog the school sent home and only getting money if I picked a book with a Caldecott Medal or some other distinguishing award--assuming it wasn't TOO crazy expensive. I can see where my parents were coming from, especially since we were poor, but boy were those fairs like candy stores for kids!
Honestly love these videos by NakeyJakey but the shout outs are by far the best worth watching over and over.
I was the poor kid that walked around looking, but everyone knew I was just a window shopping sunovabitch.
me too ._.
When i had my first book fair, my mom gave a one dollar to buy a book with. Me being a naive child, optimistically approached the librarian (who was hosting the book fair) and asked her what books I could buy with a dollar. She escorted me to the sucky five page book section and she said they were all a dollar.
I left empty-handed and disappointed.

@@featgoose972 same, too bad I lost both of mine
Book fairs had some of the weirdes but most fun comic books id never see anywhere else. One of my most formative memories was getting Missile Mouse there and wondering if i imagined it for the next decade because i lost the book and was also 11
I don't think other schools were doing this but when the 2005 fantastic four movie came out someone from the book fair handed us either preview comics or the adaptation from the movie in comic form I wish I still kept mine but I remember it was a comic book we received that was fantastic four related
I remember buying Command and Conquer at a scholastic book fair around 96, with discount coupon since we had a thing going if we read certain books we got points. Silly game, but worth
And then theres kids like me, who couldnt afford shit but still got excited to only get bummed so they just sat there while other kids got to buy stuff.
yeah feeling left out was a huge deal for us kids
In my schools they kinda made you wait in there while kids got to buy their stuff for an hour
Fuck this hit way too close to home
You have touched my heart. I’ll buy you a scented bendy pencil for your birthday.
I remember just having like 5 bucks and buying one of those cheap bookmarks or some crap
I remember buying a solar powered calculator that had buttons that smelled like chocolate... My book fairs were weird.
me too
I remember the times where you wouldn’t be bullied for reading captain underpants
Man those hooks are just childish, but I guess that’s the oiint
《REÐJIVE》 Captain Underpants was so cool when I was a kid (I’m 25 now) I can’t even believe it’s still around
I still have the calculator but the smell ran out after all the years,,
Richard Noggin i got the same exact one
God did I love these book fairs in elementary school. I remember always being excited when they handed out the catalogs. I loved them looking at them over and over again. My dad must have been so annoyed when I kept asking for money. My favorite books that I got were the Magic Tree House Merlin Missions books, Spongebob short story book, and the Percy Jackson movie tie-in edition.
This joint is ready good Jake. Really hit me hard when I heard that nostalgic "Wow it's a new record" from Bust a Groove

The first 1:30 seconds I related so hard to screw it the entire video is so relatable
Okay I’m only a minute into the video but I gotta collect all my thoughts, there’s too many memories resurfacing.
1.) I was the nerdy kid during the book fair that actually liked looking at all the books, and going to the book fair in middle school was how I found one of my favorite book series to this date, and
2.) The scholastic catalog nostalgia made me remember I BEGGED my mom to buy me Dora Adventure to the Purple Planet for the GameCube as a kid, because “it was educational”
I remember book fairs were a one way ticket out of class, the first days everyone could go but then it expanded to "if you have money you can go" so everyone would pester their friends for a quarter or whatever just to get out of class to buy a bookmark
i remember people stealing from them.i remember getting a stack of books i saw that looked cool and dipped, people saw me do it and did nothing. when i saw someone who bought stuff go out the door i stealthy went to the door
I was the loaded kid with all the quarters who would give it to all the kids. The more friendly they were to me, the more quarters they got.
Mighty's Channel that’s why my school would stamp the books to prove you bought them
When you were one of those kids who was actually interested in the books
I feel you 😂😂😂
And then u realize all of the books u can read in 2 secs
Yep😅
me😮
Minecraft
Goosebumps, wheres Waldo, and strange hair trolls were what they peddled to me as a kid.
I remember in the early 2000s getting the Pokemon handbook, a subscription to Spy University (came with a new book and gadget each month for 10 months), Captain Underpants, and probably a Harry Potter book or two among several other things I don't remember. Loved the book fair, great memories.

The outro singing your patreon names was just perfect. Please keep singing nonsense forever.
Love u.
I guess Scholastic changed a little when I finished school! I don't remember all of those gadgets you're mentioning. I remember a handful of notebooks guiness books, and cheat codes, but it was definitely mostly legit books. I circled so many books and my mom would only let me buy books, so it was a win win for this nerd.
...anyone remember being that one poor kid who wentvwith the class to go see...but you can only really look amd skim through stuff
Me too buddy..
I remember too there was this book with a lego figure and I wanted it so bad but it costed 50 dollars and I barely raised five dollars and the book was already sold so I grabbed a book but it costed ten dollars but thankfully a girl gave my five dollars man I hate being poor.
Bryan Manuel how much is your allowance? When I got $1.50 a day,(1 meal costed about $2) I would just bloat myself with water from the water cooler/fountain and save up.
Dude I feel this on an emotional level
dont they give you a voucher?
I rember the hype the class would get when you would walk by a room and see the big closed cases just knowing it's almost time.
At my school we had both the catalogs and the fair itself, so me and my friends would check off what we wanted and then look for them at the book fair and the things I remember the most about the fairs were the car posters, erasers, and bookshelf’s they had. The book section never had people in it, they all were around the Novelty eraser and pencil section. I remember looking forward to it every year, they had posters for it all around the school and in the stairways. I used to buy the novelty erasers like the money ones, the fake $50 movie theater gift card ones and the multi-piece ones that when the pieces got separated or broken looked strait out of a nightmare, I still have some of those erasers because I could never bring myself to use them, they now hang out in my pen and pencil drawer. I miss those book fairs, thanks for reminding me of those good times!!!
As a wee lad, the only books I wanted were the ones that came with a Lego figure
Same here
Scholastic Bookfairs may have been utterly random shit, but god-damn, don't tell me I'm the only one who always eagerly got the newest Captain Underpants/Diary of a Wimpy Kid book the moment the bookfair started every year.
had every mf book bro lmfao those were my shit
A. Diallo same
right here brother
When i first herd of that, i thought you say it like "diarrhea of wimpy kid" because i was in kindergarten or 1st grade and couldn't read
Same dude
Anyone remember those scented pencils that came in those special cases and lost their scents in 2 days
Logger you mean Smencils?! Made out of the “recycled” news paper? Hell yeah.
@@theboybandana6372 yeah that's what they were
I still have some smencils in their cases and they are *fresh*
But we still bought them
I loved smencils. 5 below used to have them and i bought a few there as well as the book fair
I remember these and loved them, no class and look at books like all day
