This is making me laugh tears XD
"Where's my dinner."
"Spit it out, thing that's not my son!"
"Ugh! When are they gonna invent alcohol?!"
Good stuff, gentlemen. XD
Sarah is in a catch 22 here. She studies hard because she is struggling in subjects like History and wants to make sure she graduates. Because of that, the sheeple think she is a snob. However, if she did join the "gang" in their little parties instead of studying I bet you her grades would plummet and the sheeple would be saying she is a dunce instead.
Doesn't really matter anyway. If you were a girl in that time period, your expectations were to get out of high school and find a man to take care of you. If you wanted to go to college, Home Economics was the major for you. Thank God I live in this time period. I would have killed myself ages ago if I wasn't!
AnnoyingSquib Back then, even working out of the home with a traditionally feminine job like teaching, nursing, or being a secretary was unusual. My grandma was a teacher, and in the 60's, my dad and aunt were pretty much the only kids they knew whose mom worked outside the home.
My other grandma was an office worker then too, and while my mom knew other kids whose moms worked, it was still strange.
AnnoyingSquib Part of Sarah's problem is her pride. She's determined to prove herself smarter than her peers, and never thinks to ask a classmate to tutor her.
And the only thing a woman could learn in those Home Ec classes in college would be how to cook like Betty Crocker for her man.
AnnoyingSquib the only limitations are the ones you set yourself you think people like Elvis Presley, Bruce Lee and Martin Luther King gave a damn about what people told them they could and couldn't do
@@dionwoollaston5717 Those people are all men. Also, use some punctuation, it looks as if you're auditioning for a MicroMachines commercial.
What sort of backwards alternate reality does this take place in? The mother tells her daughter to stop studying and party!
its an alternate reality called the 1950s
I have a couple medical conditions that makes studying take longer for me, so when it comes to academics and socializing, I tend to overdo the former and have little energy left for the latter. So yeah, my mom often has to remind me to have fun! :P
It was the same with me when I was in school. Now she wonders why I'm not making her a grandmother. *sigh*
This is actually a pretty regular occurrence if you're an introvert with an extrovert for a mother...
Her parents should've just encouraged her to go to social events that relate to her interests. She'd be more likely to feel comfortable, like the people there, make friends, and improve her confidence and social skills. Then she probably wouldn't have gotten so defensive at that party because she would know how to handle social situations better. Baptism by fire is a terrible way to try to help someone with their social skills.
A parent telling her daughter to go to parties instead of studying?
Apparently, the 50s are way different than I imagined.
This is a sad story: A young girl suffers from anxiety, low self-esteem and studying is a way for her to feel in control. She buries herself in books to find something to do but is also hurting herself. She is afraid of going to the party and that no one will like her. So she lashes out as a defence mechanism: if she attacks first, they cant hurt her. Only at the end does she crumble when she realizes that the image her class has of her is wrong: she is not above them, she feels worthless.
VenusMy129 Thanks for the input, Debbie Downer.
If this was in the late 60s Sarah would be free as a bird, and not be so afraid to make her own choices. Makes me grateful that I wasn't born in the 50s.
Wow, it's kind of amazing to see a video that implies studying instead of partying is a problem.The times have definitely changed, good thing we have all these students partying instead of being snobs and doing their homework.
They should do more of these.
+patanu I remember watching something like this in grade school. Hilarious voice overs would have helped.
These guys are just so damned entertaining
this was brilliant! the bit with the clucking killed me
The mother telling her she's got all weekend to work on homework instead of getting it all done early? My mother would've slapped her so hard.
if she would, always slap with the ring hand, trust me it hurts more
@@ellnats oof wow
You have no none alcoholic, none drug addicted, not pregnant teenage daughter who does all of her homework in a timely, orderly fashion, never gets into trouble, and is doing very well in school, and yet somehow you're still complaining? The 50s were so weird.
that bitch would have spoiled me rotten
Let's not forget this was a male dominated era, not like today where it still kinda is, but nowhere near as bad as the 50s, so having a smart female was kinda alien to them so words like "snob" were created to chastise the female intelligence if anything....But i'm more or less pulling this info out of my ass, so read as much into it as that
@@NashTheBlade its called being well rounded. Studying is great, this short never says otherwise, but if you spend all your energy on one area of your life you are loosing out when it comes to other areas. Developing anti-social tendencies ultimately makes life much harder as an adult than doing a little worse in school would. She isnt a snob because she's smart, she's a snob because she beleives the other students are beneath her and refuses to allow herself to have fun with them.
@@averagejoe9040 so them treating her like crap made sense because
@@NashTheBlade how do you usually treat people that outwardly express contempt for the way you and your friends act? Are you going to immediately jump to the conclusion that its a misunderstanding or are you more likely to beleive she has something against you? Thats why she needs to get better at socializing so that she doesnt have to deal with this stuff happening for the rest of her life.
This is giving me flashbacks to every conversation I've had with my mother via video chat.
"Go out and find a party!"
"But I've got orgo homework!"
"And why aren't you wearing a more flattering top?"
"Goodnight, mother."
MORE OF THIS PLEASE!!! I NEED MORE OF THIS!!!
Introvert who enjoys studying equals snob. Got it.
Doug, if possible please do more riffs! They're hilarious :D
I hope you keep doing these
I was... actually interested to see where the story went haha.
This was pretty entertaining, you both were great.
This is without a doubt, the funniest riff ever made of this controversial short, The Snob.
These riffs are awesome keep them coming
Thanks so much for this riff! Please do more videos like this!
I wish like fuck they'd make more of these.
So... A snob here is someone who studies hard? Times have changed....
+Medival Jonsson it was really to discourage girls from studying too hard. "an educated girl is a lonely girl".
I wish my college had been 70% women
princesstamika makes no sense to me surely two smart people having jobs and doing the taxes would be better
But an uneducated woman is Jerry Springer material.
DO THE EISENHOWER!!!
Isaac sussman I laughed so hard at this comment, OMG!!
The what?
LMFAO!!!!
@@Chad_Eldridge It's a 50's dance craze exclusive to white kids.
This is MST3K quality.
Thinking = Snobby
“All these people you don’t like, aren’t they happier than you are?” I actually had this question asked of me a couple of times, I always had an answer, “ignorance is bliss.”
Wow...I'm so happy to leave this era one more year behind...I don't know what sucked harder, the music or the mentalities. :(
Laura Susan Johnson I dunno, the mentalities on display still seem pretty prevalent to me.
Hey say what you want about the social flaws of that era but they are most definitely not the worst decade for music. The 1950’s has early rock music under its belt and was nowhere near as lame as people think it was. The lame rock we associate with the 50’s are actually from the early 60’s. If anything the 40’a were way worse. This was a decade where a Christmas novelty song, “All I want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth” was a number 1 hit for 2 weeks... In January! The major reason we don’t even remember 40’s music is because of WW2 but partially because it was really lame!
7:03 I love the made-up dialogue they give the father in this scene.
Great job "ug Walker and Brad Jon"!
Wat's the joke
End credits
This video is ELITE.
What's missing from this film is Rod Serling and a "fun" transplant scene.
She's not even allowed to get any satisfaction from intellectual achievement. It's not like a girl could get anywhere with that.
"Sleep with something..." 😛
*DO THE EISENHOWER!*
When your mom wants you to go out and have fun...this is too close to home for me!
This isn't fair. It starts out with her trying to study and she only got defensive when her mum talked about socialising. Then we watch the other kids be rude and hostile before any kind of snobbery is shown on her part. But then she feels a way and it's 'what a snob'? The other kids are the 'snobs'.
Right?! Bruh they are judgemental douche noodles
It's not snobbery, it's forced conformity. 🔐
I love that chiken line at 6:20 :D
Please do more of these
a parent telling there child to stop with the homework and go out somewhere? what world am i living in and why isn't it that one?
We outgrew that world :P
If you're obsessed with doing homework, your parent would do it. Parents will freak out over anything you're overly passionate about.
JukaDominator That, I can attest to.
Denmark.
Are you sure you aren't? Because it's "their"...and some of those words should be capitalized.
That's not Joan Rivers... *IT'S MADAM HECUBA! RUN, JACK! RUUUUUN!!*
Damn you, The Queen's Gambit.
They disliked my Tibetan good luck symbol oh boi
sagar chowdhary what do you mean?
@@lunaschauer1099 swaztika
Sweet Jesus, what is this short film's *deal*?
It's an educational film about a school girl with issues.
Sorry, that's all I got. 😕
I deal with this better. I don't stay silent, I simply say, "I don't give a shit" to everything that I don't give a shit about.
This "film company" must have owned this girl. She's starred in many of these shorts since prepubescents.
The same with a lot of the others. At 6:35 it's "The Troublemaker."
When I read the title I was like, why is the cinema snob listed two times?
10:10 "Norman? Who is that woman, Norman?"
At 2:29, the riffer sounds like Jim Gaffigan when he speaks in falsetto ("Hot Pockets!"), I think.
Do you think Sarah has Asperger’s
i love every riff that makes it sound dirty, like "she does lots of other guys" Giggity Giggity
5:30, Giggity, giggity.
2:54 That part sure is relevant with today's political climate
SARRAAA-UHHH!!!
Hermione Granger in the 50's
At 6:55 that black haired guy looks like elvis Presley
I just saw the troublemaker in this episode, let's see if you can find him
Snobception.
"Why is everyone so mean!?"
Still doesn't change in today's social media when it comes to teens who got called out for a being a dick online.
Eh, it was okay, but nobody beats the boys from the Satellite of Love.
If only they gotten hold of this short. 😅
Returnable pop bottles! We used to collect them. We got a nickel for a Coke bottle. And back then you needed a bottle opener.
"Be more social and try not to hate people, kids."
*OH MY GOSH THEY DIDN'T WANT WOMEN TO LEARN!*
Getting by on apple polishing?
keep in mind during the 50s mountain dew was slang for moonshine
There's nothing wrong with studying hard and trying to get grade. How was that being a snob? I bet most of the people who only thinks of partying was flunking left to right
We got us a "Tiger Mom" here...😡
*MMMMMM FAIR!! MMMMMM!!*
Is that Eleanor Donahue as the Snob?
No. She was much prettier (Eleanor Donahue, that is).
8:38 Welcome to the life of a graphic designer kid, you spend hours and hours making something beautiful and then the client turns around, throws some bad clip art onto it and tells you to just use those instead of the thing you spent forever making.
Was that a young nick nolte?
She's a smart kid who studies really hard yet struggles in several subjects and with social obligations...hm, that's not a snob that sounds more like a smart girl in the 50s, and those symptoms sound like an undiagnosed learning disability. In the 50s. Hoo boy...
Giggity giggity. dead
Snob wasn't the word I would've used to explain her. Eheheh
If you don't want to dance with just any rando who asks, you are obviously the worst.
Sarah seems like a person who has Aspergers atleast from the friend standpoint
Hey, I have Asperger's and 11 friends (I counted) and I know totally normal people who are mostly friendless (at school anyway) because they're assholes.
Once again the introvert is now a villain because she likes to study.
This is straight up hallway bullying. I swear, expectations in the 50s are ridiculous
The riffs were funny but i can't help but wonder maybe Sarah has a learning disability. She said she studied hard for the history test and still failed, plus poor social skills.
Not to mention the light skin when it comes to insults. I think this short would have been good as a mental health psa but no.....they just wrote off this behavior as being a snob.
LEARNING DISABILITIES. DON'T EXIST OR JUST A TRICK TO COMMIES USE TO MAKE US THINK THAT WE'RE NOT SUPERIOR!
Alex-Zander Browne Wow troll fail there
@@kakashiXAino it's sarcasm
heh
HMMM!
what a joke this is
Apple Polisher. 🍎
Ha! Ug Walker...just kidding, thought I could make a joke out of that considering he couldn't build up the courage to make a film so perfect after saying how making a film his way would work...
Not too smart was he...I guess he was meant to be a critic...AND A FILMMAKER! also have you considered making a documentary about Siskel & Ebert, talking about their lives, how they got to talking about movies and how they ended up talking about movies on television or something?
You could do it but being a UA-camr gives off the impression that you don't like putting in the work...Try your method of reviewing for your movies and work more on them and you should believe in yourself more and continue doing more Nostalgia Critic instead of leaving it.
Snobception.
