I’m dying watching this video because Hank’s energy was so different here!!! I’ve been watching the brothers since 2010 and I don’t remember THIS being the vibe
I think a lot of it could be attributed to becoming a dad, which happened a couple years after this video was posted. My kid is just a tad older than Hank's and I have also felt my "vibes" and energy levels change drastically over the last five years. I've been a nerdfighter since 2007 and it's been so interesting and comforting to watch Hank and John shift and become different versions of themselves over time. And having been around so long, for me it feels like I'm watching them "grow up" along with me, you know?
I went to the states this summer for a holiday, I saw a girl wearing a pizza john shirt at Universal in LA and was like "HEY NICE T-SHIRT!" and she was like "THANKS!" it was a good day.
In which ***** is, ok, maybe a little overwhelmed...but also attempts to condense the spirit of eight years of Vlogbrothers into a single anecdote and maybe doesn't do too bad of a job. Also, since he's the person writing this description, that was a pretty egotistical thing to say. Hey, Bee and Puppycat is Awesome! - ua-cam.com/channels/IA9jUDnKVMYc4SmqTxcwqg.html Games With Hank is at the very least fun - ua-cam.com/users/gameswithhank Pizza John is always having adventures: theadventuresofpizzajohn.tumblr.com/ Also, he is for sale in a great number of forms: www.dftba.com
Thaaaank you for the explanation! Pizza John is a very familiar concept but only because it has always existed for my time in Nerdfighteria. Now I understand Pizza John more completely :) Thanks! Off to DFTBA dot com!
I love how the explanation for the (vaguely horrifying) image of you with no teeth in the thumbnail comes in the last few seconds, ever so nonchalantly hahah
2:18 is still probably my greatest accomplishment/surprise of my life. I was on my senior trip in New York and walking around the city people from across the street would shout “DFTBA” and it was amazing. That night our group went to this amazing show called Fuerza Bruta where at the end of the night they took this picture of the audience. I didn’t submit this or anything so I just was dumbfounded when my nerdfighter cousin and nerdfighter friend who was also on the trip told me it was included in one of your videos. Thank you guys so much! Obviously I still think about it fondly years later.
I gotta say that thumbnail creeped me out! ;) But I do also want to say that I think your channel is amazing! Hank you are probably my favourite of the both of you (Sorry John! ;) ) But both of you have an enthusiasm that just makes me want to smile whenever I watch you! I've been watching you since 2011 and I still to this day find your content very entertaining :P You were one of my main inspirations in making my videos! And you Hank are probably one of the reasons that I talk pretty dang fast in them as well ;) Keep it up DFTBA, love from England
On the third day of Pizzamas Nerdfighters gave to me Three French the Llamas Two nerdy brothers And an awesome family tree! (Thanks to +MadeofAwesome4ever for the suggestion.) Holy cow, Hank mentioned me!!! What?!
January 1st 2007 "hey john" the first thing said. it seems like such a meaningless thing just a small hello with those 2 words opened the first video that would end up changing not only your lifes but the lives of millions over the course of a few years november 12 2014 "goodmorning john" current hank november 14 2061 "goodmorning john its monday" 81 year old hank continues to change the lives of everyone he touches 1 small greeting at a time
Zalied I love this comment. I find it inspirational and heartwarming. I also find it a bit chilling, because as we look forward that far, with John and Hank in 80's, 90's and (we can all only hope, with the advance of medical technology) 100's...eventually, if these go on as long as possible, we may see a video end with something akin to, "John, I'll see you in the afterlife."
id hope to not have a video about one of them dieing....(also it was more work then i thought it be finding out how old hank was then how many years until he was 81 then finding a random day to put this one nov 14 2061 is when hes 81 and it is a monday)
It's so interesting watching this stuff now. I've been watching since before this video and I forgot that pizzamas started as a viral meme among the followers. It's come full circle now and Hank now has a mustache. It's a weird world and I'm so glad Hank is still in it.
Coming back to 2014 videos and being weirded out by 'vlog-voice' which was in vogue at the time. For you future historians, people didn't talk like this, just people who were on camera, and impressionable teenagers.
Interesting. Not watching much vloggers (and not ones that do this), I didn't realize it was a thing: www.quantifiedcommunications.com/blog/how-to-speak-like-a-youtube-star They specifically talk about the Greens here. Also, though, I feel like there's another voice going on here. If you watch his video before and after this one, it's not there. He's doing a kind of faux snooty voice, which also sounds a little like Casey Kasem.
Bex Head I turned 23 that December. I also started in July when Accio Deathly Hallows was featured. Caught up and watched them all, and I've been here since!
Tuned in around late 2008, but I was 15 then. Jeez, so much has happened since then (almost graduating from uni now). You guys make me feel young, and I know I'm above average age for a nerdfighter.
Happy Pizzamas from 2020! This year has been tough but we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here
*Tuataria-Pizzamashunt* Letter: P1 Well, done. You solved the first clue. How exciting! We're nearly "cheese doodles guy"-excited. We thought this video would be a good point to start, because you recall how Pizzamas came to life..that and also..the thumbnail horrifies us to this day. Clue Nr. 1
I always catch myself smiling whenever I watch a vlogbrothers video. So... thanks for about seven years' worth of smiles, John and Hank. Merry Pizzamas.
i come back and rewatch this every pizzamas because it's such a good summary of the best of what vlogbrothers tries to be, and also it just me happy to be told a happy story. happy pizzamas everybody!! this community gives me faith that empathy, optimism, and love will prevail!
YES! I need this, I havent watched from the beginning and I have always wondered about the Pizza John thing. Well, I am going to watch the video now...
I'm commenting here for the nerdfighters of 2061 that are looking back at this video. Hi. Your internet must be super fast. I am totes jelly. I am trying to figure out what to say to the people of the future, by thinking about what I would want to hear from the people of the past. Hrm... I like pizza, equal rights, and Wikipedia. Snapchat and Minecraft are worth billions of dollars and that's weird to me. And of course, don't forget to be awesome. Happy Pizzamas
I was actually thinking about that as well, will comments be around, will hank be around, will youtube be around. The internet is quite the ever evolving beast. But, I hope for the best case scenario, which is some people in 2061 chuckle a little.
I came back for a refresher, and it was weird seeing Puppycat now in a 7 year old video since the Netflix show just came out Yeah I know, I watched it on UA-cam originally when it released as well, but I didn't expect that would line up so neatly with the Pizzamas lore
I keep trying to explain to my mom why I need to order a pizzamas Pizza John shirt and she just thinks it's weird and doesn't understand why I would want one and I just literally ran down stairs and showed her this video and yelled THIS IS WHY ITS IMPORTANT!!! Now she thinks I'm even weirder than she thought before, but she gave in and let me order the shirt lmao xD
Hank, 70-year-old me will be right there with you (I hope) in 2061. I can't wait. The nigh-endless iterations of Pizza John I think are an excellent representation of everything that vlogbrothers/nerdfighteria is. You guys do a thing, we respond to that thing, you guys answer back, and then we RUN with it. That hilarious, serious, silly, thoughtful, constant conversation is, to me, kind of the essence of this community. May there be many more. LONG LIVE PIZZA JOHN (also i would not at all complain if you guys decided to bring random livestreaming back at some point- that seems like it would have been super fun)
I hope to be right there, too. I'll be 103, but hopefully, still right there. And when I start putting strange things on my head, I hope someone will be there to say "It's not Alzheimer's...He's a Nerdfighter."
Absolutely! I was SO HAPPY when Hank said he wanted to do this forever, because I want to watch it forever. The boy and I have agreed that we will still be trolling each other constantly and making appalling Star Wars jokes in the nursing home...it's nice to think that we'll be able to still watch vlogbrothers too. God help our grandchildren.
Even though I can't afford to buy Pizzamas stuff right now (which gives me a sad) I love all that you two do! I just discovered Vlogbrothers a year ago and since have become like, OBSESSED with telling people about how awesome you are.... which includes me... giving a sermon at my church in a little over a week... called "Nerdfighteria: Don't Forget To Be Awesome". and I am freaking out because WHAT IF I SCREW UP? But my little Nerdfighter children have offered to help me, so I should be OK. But I just wanted to thank you, John and Hank, for inspiring us to be awesome.
I think Hank had that idea of 81 year old him making videos and just kind of... ran with it. So he edited out his teeth in the thumbnail, as sort of a precursor to what he might look like at 81? Or it could just be because Pizza John is weird and Hank is weird and it works.
In medieval times, female Japanese used to die their teeth black - it was used as a dental sealant and was thought of as a sign of beauty. How it ties in with this though I've no idea.
LocoPojo I was thinking the same thing. I did a quick contrast study, and it doesn't really work as well I'd imagined. It just looks like Hank being really happy. Which is all well and good too.
Not gonna lie, I nearly teared up a little there. I've been a Nerdfighter for about a fourth of my life, which is weird to think about, and it's been crazy and consistently awesome and also has definitely made me a very different, and much better, person than I would have been without it. Looking forward to many more years. :)
I've really missed the old vlogbrothers type videos.... This week has been awesome so far!!! I hope this happens more often! Even if it's not a video every day at least this style of video. :/ great job on a fun video Hank!
Somehow a very similar video to 2021 pizzamas and yet much the opposite. -says he doesn't know what pizzamas is, but here actually does seem to know (sort of) -talks about the lack of plan, but here gives a long term plan -introduces a cat in both -is high energy, but here in such a very different way
One day I'm going to have watched all vlogbrothers videos ever... but until then, thanks for explaining. Also, this is a great example of how random things become something of meaning in a community. Awesome!
Here from 2020 (for a little Pizzamas recap) and oh boy, Hank, get ready for six years from now! Everything is worse, except for vlogbrothers content which is ironically (considering how in this video you talk about how you guys want to seem human) much more human-seeming. Congrats on your trajectory and God save us all!
I am deeply upset at the increasing commercialization of pizzamas, everything is more more more, and it is so far up on the calender it overtakes thanksgiving. This holliday isn't about buying gifts from the DFBTA store or or watching the newest pizzamas special. It is about something more important than that. Something we forget all too often. Pizza.
It's so hard to believe that I started watching you guys in 2008 and how much has changed in my life/career. I love seeing how things in Nerdfighteria develop. I usually completely forget.
Argh i can't even begin to describe how happy pizzamas is making me this year!!! I should totally wear neon pizza john to work tomorrow. These videos just remind me so much of when i first joined and I'm loving every second. Thanks so much for bringing a little more joy to the world ^_^
A few years ago, during 2011, it was my senior year in high school. I remember seeing that face before on a shirt at school. And seeing it on the internet, but I never inquired and the memory of the face went away. One day, a few months ago, I stumbled across Crash Course and started watching it. Now I wait for a new episode each week, happily. I also follow vlogbrothers as well. AND THEN I REALIZED THE FACE WAS JOHN'S AND I'M OKAY WITH THIS.
I find this comforting to watch during this time ❤️ to whoever stumble upon this among this time you deserve a hug and a warm cup of water We never forget the important things
Thank you Hank for answering the question I was trying to figure out earlier today. :D I really appreciate the time and effort that you put into your creation of the videos and realizing what everyone wants to know.... :D
Ja. Ik bedoelde Amsterdam als perfecte plaats voor John Green lezers. Vooral van The Fault In Our Stars, aangezien een groot gedeelte hiervan plaatsvindt in Amsterdam. Maar iets centraals zou ook handog zijn. Maarja. Hopen en wachten.
I’m so glad I found this video because I was so lost 😆 you guys are my favourite UA-camrs, I absolutely love your energy oh and Hank you saved my chemistry exam for me with crash course and I’m eternally greatful haha
noticed that that a while ago while listening to old dear hank and john episodes, hank used to do this "performative youtuber voice", but seems to have lost it over the years? I'm glad he did stop, it is cringe somehow
"Also, since he's the person writing this description, that was a pretty egotistical thing to say." XD I remember when John announced he wanted it as a shirt and I thought he was kidding. Now I have three versions of it :D.
Thank you Hank! Having watched the middle years of Vlogbrothers' videos largely out of order, this contextual explanation is most helpful to me. Happy Pizzamas to you and John! Although, John, I think I will always be confused by pizza-taco...
I learned about this in a completely random way and was just waiting until UA-cam recommended something with some sort of explanation. At least sometimes it works. I have been learning about Nerdfighteria, and you know, I like you guys a lot. Thanks!
crystalclare1000 I don't know, they have some that feature giraffes doing the nasty...and Hank humping things... and John's face on a baby's body...and goat sex... and animal testicles The bar is set quite high for creepiness, I guess is what I'm saying
Yeah...I debated that one for a while...my theory is a lot of people will click on it...and I want to bait the ones that are about community and Nerdfighteria :-)
Wow the history of pizzamas unravels... 😃🎄🍕🎉 I have a question for you Hank: If you could have your face on a shirt what would it say?Or do any of my fellow nerdfighters have an idea?
There are such shirts: store.dftba.com/products/no-edge-shirt www.redbubble.com/people/tpatthemalfoys/works/8407509-corndog-hank?p=t-shirt www.flickr.com/photos/justaredhead/4845236416/
I did not originally understand the thumbnail, BUT NOW I DO so thanks for weirding me out. I wasn't around during the early days of Nerdfighteria, so its pretty cool to learn about its history. Especially the origin of the PizzaJohn, which I previously had no context or knowledge of. Looking forward to more Pizzamas ;D
omg hank that thumbnail hahaha. is that you trying to impersonate what toothless 81 year old you might look like? You should have given yourself gray hair or something as well to complete the image.
I’m dying watching this video because Hank’s energy was so different here!!! I’ve been watching the brothers since 2010 and I don’t remember THIS being the vibe
Agreed … what’s going on here 😂 Love it
He definitely used to be more... quirky?
I think a lot of it could be attributed to becoming a dad, which happened a couple years after this video was posted. My kid is just a tad older than Hank's and I have also felt my "vibes" and energy levels change drastically over the last five years.
I've been a nerdfighter since 2007 and it's been so interesting and comforting to watch Hank and John shift and become different versions of themselves over time. And having been around so long, for me it feels like I'm watching them "grow up" along with me, you know?
his voice being different is what made me confused
Same
This finally explained one of the most perplexing mysteries of my life, so thank you.
Omg I didn't know you had a channel 6 years ago. Live your channel man! Keep it up!
Lmao this is funny. Hi joe
Clearly this silly comment led to your serious success
Oh hey Joe! I didn't know you watched vlogbrothers back then (do you still now?)!
Just found this comment... I love how my interests align so well with my favorite youtubers some times
I would totally still watch an 80 year old hank talk about stuff. you'd have to still talk at lightning speed tho
I'd better keep my teeth brushed...
***** Hank you will be a cyborg before you come toothless. :P
I expect to be a decedent by 2061 :(
I cannot even express how much I love the words "I'll see you tomorrow." It's been too long friends.
YYAAAAASSS
Me too!
This hits harder now....
@@vlogbrothers me three
Is there a shirt with a picture of a Pizza with the word John at the bottom of it?
that would be awesome
You are a true genius my friend.
Can we make this happen?
Please!
MAKE SURE THIS IS A THING NEXT PIZZAMAS
I went to the states this summer for a holiday, I saw a girl wearing a pizza john shirt at Universal in LA and was like "HEY NICE T-SHIRT!" and she was like "THANKS!"
it was a good day.
Jsjsjs

In which ***** is, ok, maybe a little overwhelmed...but also attempts to condense the spirit of eight years of Vlogbrothers into a single anecdote and maybe doesn't do too bad of a job. Also, since he's the person writing this description, that was a pretty egotistical thing to say.
Hey, Bee and Puppycat is Awesome! - ua-cam.com/channels/IA9jUDnKVMYc4SmqTxcwqg.html
Games With Hank is at the very least fun - ua-cam.com/users/gameswithhank
Pizza John is always having adventures: theadventuresofpizzajohn.tumblr.com/
Also, he is for sale in a great number of forms: www.dftba.com
I noticed @ 2:22 there is a comic... What comic is that?
DFTBA!!!
Thaaaank you for the explanation! Pizza John is a very familiar concept but only because it has always existed for my time in Nerdfighteria. Now I understand Pizza John more completely :) Thanks! Off to DFTBA dot com!
see you in 2061! (and all the years in between!)
I'm afraid I can't afford to partake in the face-y goodness but I really do enjoy your existence. Thanks for, you know, existing. :)
You should also make a video called: The History of Pizza, John!
"Are you kidding?! I'll be doing this forever!" --Hank Green
... and the crowd goes wild!
I love how the explanation for the (vaguely horrifying) image of you with no teeth in the thumbnail comes in the last few seconds, ever so nonchalantly hahah
"5 year plan"? It's now been 5 years and yes, he is still doing this. And a lot else.
"If you're not gonna have a good time, you're not gonna have a good time."
-Hank Green
Watching this in the Year of our Pizza John 2023 is WILD.
2:18 is still probably my greatest accomplishment/surprise of my life. I was on my senior trip in New York and walking around the city people from across the street would shout “DFTBA” and it was amazing. That night our group went to this amazing show called Fuerza Bruta where at the end of the night they took this picture of the audience. I didn’t submit this or anything so I just was dumbfounded when my nerdfighter cousin and nerdfighter friend who was also on the trip told me it was included in one of your videos. Thank you guys so much! Obviously I still think about it fondly years later.
y do u have NO TEETH IN THE THUMBNAIL
This still freaks me out whenever I see the thumbnail in my recommended videos (which still happens even though I've seen it...) Why, Hank? WHY?
It's maybe because Hank said he still wanted to make videos when he would be 80 and "toothless".
"Things like this happen and we want to explain them but we can't. And really if we could, it would be less special" - Hank
Reading this comment after watching the video made me realise the answer
Tha scared me.
I gotta say that thumbnail creeped me out! ;) But I do also want to say that I think your channel is amazing! Hank you are probably my favourite of the both of you (Sorry John! ;) ) But both of you have an enthusiasm that just makes me want to smile whenever I watch you! I've been watching you since 2011 and I still to this day find your content very entertaining :P You were one of my main inspirations in making my videos! And you Hank are probably one of the reasons that I talk pretty dang fast in them as well ;) Keep it up DFTBA, love from England
No way! Fancy seeing you here, I just watched your latest video and I really enjoyed it! Love your channel
Happy Pizzamas from 2023!
On the third day of Pizzamas Nerdfighters gave to me
Three French the Llamas
Two nerdy brothers
And an awesome family tree!
(Thanks to +MadeofAwesome4ever for the suggestion.)
Holy cow, Hank mentioned me!!! What?!
Congrats! I love your lyrics by the way 😊
*****
I don't know what to do right now. Unfortunately, all of my family and friends live in a different time zone, or else I would text them.
Arihana F
Thanks! I'm trying to write a Pizzamas song based on What Child is This, as requested by +Hannah T.
Also, Sunwoo Kim is co-lyricist.
Who the eff is Hank?
January 1st 2007
"hey john" the first thing said. it seems like such a meaningless thing just a small hello
with those 2 words opened the first video that would end up changing not only your lifes but the lives of millions over the course of a few years
november 12 2014
"goodmorning john" current hank
november 14 2061
"goodmorning john its monday" 81 year old hank continues to change the lives of everyone he touches 1 small greeting at a time
Zalied I love this comment. I find it inspirational and heartwarming. I also find it a bit chilling, because as we look forward that far, with John and Hank in 80's, 90's and (we can all only hope, with the advance of medical technology) 100's...eventually, if these go on as long as possible, we may see a video end with something akin to, "John, I'll see you in the afterlife."
I just felt chills...
id hope to not have a video about one of them dieing....(also it was more work then i thought it be finding out how old hank was then how many years until he was 81 then finding a random day to put this one nov 14 2061 is when hes 81 and it is a monday)
this channel will do great things
It's so interesting watching this stuff now. I've been watching since before this video and I forgot that pizzamas started as a viral meme among the followers. It's come full circle now and Hank now has a mustache. It's a weird world and I'm so glad Hank is still in it.
It's impressive how well this holds up, 5 years later
This is my first year experiencing Pizzamas so I am very happy to find this explanation.
Me as well!
Coming back to 2014 videos and being weirded out by 'vlog-voice' which was in vogue at the time. For you future historians, people didn't talk like this, just people who were on camera, and impressionable teenagers.
Interesting. Not watching much vloggers (and not ones that do this), I didn't realize it was a thing:

hello I’m here from the future - I was indeed a little baffled by this voice 🥲
I forget sometimes that I started watching these guys in 2007 .. When I was 23 ... Now I feel old,
Hi, How do you think I feel I'm 50!
Bex Head Huh. I started watching in 2007, and though it was after I started watching, I turned 23 in 2007.
I was 23 in the April, and started in July after the "Accio Deathly Hallows" video. Made sure I caught up and watched them all.
Bex Head I turned 23 that December. I also started in July when Accio Deathly Hallows was featured. Caught up and watched them all, and I've been here since!
Tuned in around late 2008, but I was 15 then. Jeez, so much has happened since then (almost graduating from uni now). You guys make me feel young, and I know I'm above average age for a nerdfighter.
LONG LIVE PIZZAMAS! Thanks Hank for the shout out to Bee and PuppyCat. ლ(⌒▽⌒ლ)
I've been refreshing for hours for this! Thanks Hank!!
Happy Pizzamas from 2020! This year has been tough but we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here because we are here
*Tuataria-Pizzamashunt*
Letter: P1
Well, done. You solved the first clue. How exciting! We're nearly "cheese doodles guy"-excited.
We thought this video would be a good point to start, because you recall how Pizzamas came to life..that and also..the thumbnail horrifies us to this day.
Clue Nr. 1
I have no context but I’m excited nonetheless😊
I always catch myself smiling whenever I watch a vlogbrothers video. So... thanks for about seven years' worth of smiles, John and Hank. Merry Pizzamas.
Definitely gonna hold Hank to his saying he'll vlog forever. He'd better. I'll watch forever. Really and truly. Looking forward to it.
i come back and rewatch this every pizzamas because it's such a good summary of the best of what vlogbrothers tries to be, and also it just me happy to be told a happy story. happy pizzamas everybody!! this community gives me faith that empathy, optimism, and love will prevail!
YES! I need this, I havent watched from the beginning and I have always wondered about the Pizza John thing. Well, I am going to watch the video now...
I'm commenting here for the nerdfighters of 2061 that are looking back at this video.
Hi. Your internet must be super fast. I am totes jelly. I am trying to figure out what to say to the people of the future, by thinking about what I would want to hear from the people of the past.

Happy Pizzamas
asharma78901 Let's just hope these old comments are still visible in 2061, and not completely lost in the Great UA-cam Comments Overhaul of 2032.
I was actually thinking about that as well, will comments be around, will hank be around, will youtube be around. The internet is quite the ever evolving beast.
But, I hope for the best case scenario, which is some people in 2061 chuckle a little.
asharma78901 www.pmichaud.com/toast
***** More like in the next 6 months
Well, I can tell you it's still here 4 years later, if nothing else... See you in a few decades I hope! :)
I watch this video once a year .... and i don't know why.
I came back for a refresher, and it was weird seeing Puppycat now in a 7 year old video since the Netflix show just came out
Yeah I know, I watched it on UA-cam originally when it released as well, but I didn't expect that would line up so neatly with the Pizzamas lore
I keep trying to explain to my mom why I need to order a pizzamas Pizza John shirt and she just thinks it's weird and doesn't understand why I would want one and I just literally ran down stairs and showed her this video and yelled THIS IS WHY ITS IMPORTANT!!! Now she thinks I'm even weirder than she thought before, but she gave in and let me order the shirt lmao xD
Happy Pizzamas, nerdfighteria!
Hank, 70-year-old me will be right there with you (I hope) in 2061. I can't wait.
The nigh-endless iterations of Pizza John I think are an excellent representation of everything that vlogbrothers/nerdfighteria is.
You guys do a thing, we respond to that thing, you guys answer back, and then we RUN with it. That hilarious, serious, silly, thoughtful, constant conversation is, to me, kind of the essence of this community.
May there be many more.
LONG LIVE PIZZA JOHN
(also i would not at all complain if you guys decided to bring random livestreaming back at some point- that seems like it would have been super fun)
Well said!
I hope to be right there, too. I'll be 103, but hopefully, still right there. And when I start putting strange things on my head, I hope someone will be there to say "It's not Alzheimer's...He's a Nerdfighter."
juststeveschannel We'll make you a shirt that says that for your 103rd birthday!
Absolutely! I was SO HAPPY when Hank said he wanted to do this forever, because I want to watch it forever. The boy and I have agreed that we will still be trolling each other constantly and making appalling Star Wars jokes in the nursing home...it's nice to think that we'll be able to still watch vlogbrothers too. God help our grandchildren.
Oh, hey, 24 year old me. Just came from a random livestream John did for pizzamas 2023. It is indeed fun. Here's to many more years of pizzamas.
This year is definitely the BEST PIZZAMAS so far. NEw designs, products and very impotant SO MANY vlogbrothers videos. just great.
Kinda brings a tear of happiness to the eye, don't it? We've come so far, and I love us allso much. DFTBA!!!
it’s that time of year again
The internet, making three seconds of a mustache this awesome, wow... O-O The power...
Even though I can't afford to buy Pizzamas stuff right now (which gives me a sad) I love all that you two do! I just discovered Vlogbrothers a year ago and since have become like, OBSESSED with telling people about how awesome you are.... which includes me... giving a sermon at my church in a little over a week... called "Nerdfighteria: Don't Forget To Be Awesome". and I am freaking out because WHAT IF I SCREW UP? But my little Nerdfighter children have offered to help me, so I should be OK.
But I just wanted to thank you, John and Hank, for inspiring us to be awesome.
Hank's voice sounds so different from. 8 years ago!
this video is so aggressively early 2010's and I love it.
Ikr? And all the top comments have emoticons in them hahaha
Am I the only one who's wondering why hank has no teeth in the thumbnail
I think Hank had that idea of 81 year old him making videos and just kind of... ran with it. So he edited out his teeth in the thumbnail, as sort of a precursor to what he might look like at 81?
Or it could just be because Pizza John is weird and Hank is weird and it works.
In medieval times, female Japanese used to die their teeth black - it was used as a dental sealant and was thought of as a sign of beauty. How it ties in with this though I've no idea.
I just want this transposed on a shirt next to Pizza John.
LocoPojo I was thinking the same thing. I did a quick contrast study, and it doesn't really work as well I'd imagined. It just looks like Hank being really happy. Which is all well and good too.
Fnaf 2 puppet?
Not gonna lie, I nearly teared up a little there. I've been a Nerdfighter for about a fourth of my life, which is weird to think about, and it's been crazy and consistently awesome and also has definitely made me a very different, and much better, person than I would have been without it. Looking forward to many more years. :)
when he said "81-year-old Hank, toothless" I kind of got the idea that Hank is going to become a Night Fury when he turns 81.
I've really missed the old vlogbrothers type videos.... This week has been awesome so far!!! I hope this happens more often! Even if it's not a video every day at least this style of video. :/ great job on a fun video Hank!
Hank at full muppet.
Somehow a very similar video to 2021 pizzamas and yet much the opposite.
-says he doesn't know what pizzamas is, but here actually does seem to know (sort of)
-talks about the lack of plan, but here gives a long term plan
-introduces a cat in both
-is high energy, but here in such a very different way
Six people are lactose intolerant, and so don't know the joys of pizza. No other reason can be given for the dislikes.
***** did you just
They are probably italian and hate american pizza. :D
One day I'm going to have watched all vlogbrothers videos ever... but until then, thanks for explaining. Also, this is a great example of how random things become something of meaning in a community. Awesome!
Nerdfighters are some of the most positive UA-camrs! Scrolling through the comments, it's difficult to find negativity. Rock on.
Here from 2020 (for a little Pizzamas recap) and oh boy, Hank, get ready for six years from now! Everything is worse, except for vlogbrothers content which is ironically (considering how in this video you talk about how you guys want to seem human) much more human-seeming. Congrats on your trajectory and God save us all!
blogtv... which doesn't exist anymore. R.I.P.
These videos never cease to make my day.... It could literally be 4 minutes of them derping and I would be freaking delighted.
I am deeply upset at the increasing commercialization of pizzamas, everything is more more more, and it is so far up on the calender it overtakes thanksgiving.
This holliday isn't about buying gifts from the DFBTA store or or watching the newest pizzamas special.
It is about something more important than that. Something we forget all too often.
Pizza.
6 years later you are still doing it and it's amazing
Not Why, but Why Not.
It's so hard to believe that I started watching you guys in 2008 and how much has changed in my life/career. I love seeing how things in Nerdfighteria develop. I usually completely forget.
Hank sounds sooooooo different now!
Love this. I am so happy. These daily videos are holding me through until Thanksgiving...
this is a very 2014 video lmao
very weird to see it in virtually the same video quality
thank you for explaining it. I never questioned it and just assumed it part of nerdfighteria without wondering about the history too much.
Hey 5 years later he's still doing Pizzamas!
Thank you hank for explaining things I wanted to know 6 years before I knew I wanted to know
I want Pizza John stuff but I have no money to buy Pizza John stuff because school.
School is way more important than stuff :-)
Just hold on to that thought, because when 81 year old Hank is doing Pizzamas again, you will probably no longer be in school :)
***** PROBABLY
the pizza john will live on in your heart
Argh i can't even begin to describe how happy pizzamas is making me this year!!! I should totally wear neon pizza john to work tomorrow. These videos just remind me so much of when i first joined and I'm loving every second. Thanks so much for bringing a little more joy to the world ^_^
This has 2014 hopefulness. No trump, no pandemic. Adapted to 2008 financial crisis. I love it!
We really had it so good man...
A few years ago, during 2011, it was my senior year in high school. I remember seeing that face before on a shirt at school. And seeing it on the internet, but I never inquired and the memory of the face went away.
One day, a few months ago, I stumbled across Crash Course and started watching it. Now I wait for a new episode each week, happily. I also follow vlogbrothers as well.
AND THEN I REALIZED THE FACE WAS JOHN'S AND I'M OKAY WITH THIS.
Damn. Uploaded 37 seconds ago. Fastest I've ever gotten to any video, ever.
woooah this is an insane flashback, i just started watching a few months ago and am in the middle of pizzamas 2021, what a difference from then to now
I find this comforting to watch during this time ❤️ to whoever stumble upon this among this time you deserve a hug and a warm cup of water We never forget the important things
Warm cuppa water, though ..?
Thank you Hank for answering the question I was trying to figure out earlier today. :D I really appreciate the time and effort that you put into your creation of the videos and realizing what everyone wants to know.... :D
DWDD! I saw pizza-john on DWDD! My life is now complete.
Ik zocht voor een soortgelijke comment. DFTBA Nederlander!
AJM K Supercool. Het wordt zo langzamerhand wel eens tijd voor een nerdfighter-evenement hier in NL, denk je ook niet?
Zeker weten. Goed idee! Amsterdam zou de perfecte plaats zijn denk ik.
AJM K Het zou mij niet eens uitmaken waar. Zo lang het maar aan te reizen is met de trein.
Ja. Ik bedoelde Amsterdam als perfecte plaats voor John Green lezers. Vooral van The Fault In Our Stars, aangezien een groot gedeelte hiervan plaatsvindt in Amsterdam. Maar iets centraals zou ook handog zijn. Maarja. Hopen en wachten.
I just love what you guys do and what you stand for
WOW this is so chaotic, I never knew the Hank Green I know nowadays was the calm version 😂
Happy Pizzamas folks 🍕
Oh, I've just saw a 2010 John's video about pizza. and you are not prepared for this: ua-cam.com/video/NDk73GUwicY/v-deo.html
@@ssdd28561 I was not at all prepared. That was...a lot. Pizza.
Hank, I am luvin' your traditional (old-school Vlogbrothers cool) videos!!!
(Can't wait for your next one. Really enjoying this week, it's great.)
2061 - I'll be there.
That makes me feel so thankful and happy. I just love you guys.
If you are still doing this in 2061, I'll be 101! I hope we're both here to celebrate Pizzamas!
I'll be 76. I hope I'll be celebrating Pizzamas too!
I love that 5 years later, you are indeed still doing this. ❤ I'm excited to watch you still when you are 80 and toothless.
I wear this shirt in public ALL THE TIME.
I really enjoy the blurry pizza johns. they are so wonderful
can we just talk about how this hyperactive guy just became a dad ! congrats :D
I’m so glad I found this video because I was so lost 😆 you guys are my favourite UA-camrs, I absolutely love your energy oh and Hank you saved my chemistry exam for me with crash course and I’m eternally greatful haha
noticed that that a while ago while listening to old dear hank and john episodes, hank used to do this "performative youtuber voice", but seems to have lost it over the years? I'm glad he did stop, it is cringe somehow
So glad this popped up and I can now be caught up on the lore for pizza John
"Also, since he's the person writing this description, that was a pretty egotistical thing to say." XD
I remember when John announced he wanted it as a shirt and I thought he was kidding. Now I have three versions of it :D.
Thank you Hank! Having watched the middle years of Vlogbrothers' videos largely out of order, this contextual explanation is most helpful to me. Happy Pizzamas to you and John! Although, John, I think I will always be confused by pizza-taco...
Who's watching in 2061?
I learned about this in a completely random way and was just waiting until UA-cam recommended something with some sort of explanation. At least sometimes it works. I have been learning about Nerdfighteria, and you know, I like you guys a lot. Thanks!
as an aside, this video has what may possibly be the creepiest thumbnail ever on a vlogbrothers video.
crystalclare1000 I don't know, they have some that feature giraffes doing the nasty...and Hank humping things... and John's face on a baby's body...and goat sex... and animal testicles
The bar is set quite high for creepiness, I guess is what I'm saying
I thought exactly the same thing, crystalclare1000. HANK, WHERE DID YOUR TEETH GO?!
Yeah...I debated that one for a while...my theory is a lot of people will click on it...and I want to bait the ones that are about community and Nerdfighteria :-)
Thanks for explaining this! It's much appreciated, especially coming from a nerdfighter who was a little late to the game...
Happy Pizzamas everyone!!
Wow the history of pizzamas unravels... 😃🎄🍕🎉
I have a question for you Hank: If you could have your face on a shirt what would it say?Or do any of my fellow nerdfighters have an idea?
YES OF COURSE THE CORNDOG
There are such shirts:

He has the No Edge shirt on DFTBA's site!
Hank's face is on a shirt. It says No Edge. :)
store.dftba.com/products/no-edge-shirt
There was one (still is one?) that says CORNDOG on it.
After seeing so many pizza johns at Nerdcon Nerdfighteria, had to go back and watch some Pizzamas vids!
games with hank how old I am
Yes I know you watch that to
It will live on forever since it started
I did not originally understand the thumbnail, BUT NOW I DO so thanks for weirding me out. I wasn't around during the early days of Nerdfighteria, so its pretty cool to learn about its history. Especially the origin of the PizzaJohn, which I previously had no context or knowledge of. Looking forward to more Pizzamas ;D
omg hank that thumbnail hahaha. is that you trying to impersonate what toothless 81 year old you might look like? You should have given yourself gray hair or something as well to complete the image.
I'd still watch 82 year old Hank and John. Hands down.
