📚 Second Hand [Original Story ASMR]

- TW: Self-harm
I wrote this story in the late 90's, and have had it kicking around in my head in some form or another since then. I finally decided to exorcise it from my mind by spending some time re-writing what is an admittedly sophomoric premise into something I felt could be worthy of the also-admittedly fairly low bar I've set for myself here. I think it made it over, just barely, if only from the sheer number of double meanings in the text.
I'm oh so very very clever and oh so pleased with myself.
For the thumbnail I went for an "I'm advertising a watch" vibe. If you find you'd like to buy a watch somewhere, please go ahead and do so. It might help you realize just how quickly life elapses. The absurdist rub: you don't want it to end, but you aren't particularly fond of it, either.

Warning. The high quality and handsomeness coming from this channel's content have reached the critical level again. This is not an exercise. Please remain calm and enjoy this journey
Please remain calm. There's nothing you can do.
(OG viewers will understand)
@@sacredsecrecy9620 You got it 😉
wow the beard is EVERYTHING
I'm loving the slightly disconcerting Commander-Waterford-at-a-press-conference look going on in this video!! please never stop making content :)
holy crap i may need to do this
@@PhoenicianSailor PLEASE. (May the lord open.)
you're so crisp dad
Wow... These tales never cease to amaze us, and if we listen carefully theres wisdom to be heard in them.
wisdom? eh...
@@PhoenicianSailor Humble people are the wisest, Sailor.
I like how the title has at least four different meanings within the story
I almost had the mom & sis playing cards, but thought that was maybe one too many, hehe.
I enjoyed the soft guitar bit at the end, I recognized it from the livestream a while back. This was a great story, Scott. Thank you for sharing it with us.
HOW IS THE FREEEEEEEEEEE WOWOW THIS IS SO GOOD.
The quality in these videos though!
honestly, I could listen to you non-stop.
You're incredible at telling stories. I'm glad you told this one eventually, loved to hear it, had a lot of different emotions. The story seems simple at first, but it's really not.
I had to put off listening to this for 5 days.
Scott, sir, this was VERY well done and had me enthralled!
Bravo!
loving this new format ❤️❤️❤️
and what a story
Thank you for this story that reminds us of the nerve and bravery it takes to go on drivin' in an inherited rickety death trap.
Truly wonderful.
I’d just like to say, from this, your ASMR videos in general and the extracts you read on you lives. You really need to be doing audio books, you have the right tone and the right words are always highlighted ( that’s not the right word - but it’s been a long day ) or even voicing audio description, you have the tone and believability to make something come alive.
I'd hire him for reading, if only my audiobook project wasn't in another language...
Extremely good video and writing. I expected a twist, but not that one. People don't tend to make this kind of content without having experienced it, which is always deeply painful.
I find it inspiring that you're creating the change you want to see.
Thanks! I kinda thought the trigger warning was a dead giveaway, but didn't want to upset anyone.
you would absolutely KILL a cobb vanth (the mandalorian) asmr roleplay!! love this btw
I can’t wait to watch this after work! I always enjoy your stories. You’re a gifted wordsmith.
Really thought-provoking & touching, great ending love the guitar.
This production is too great for UA-cam.
This was really great! I enjoyed your reading of The Same Dog, so decided to check out your original stories and I'm glad I did.
sound is so crisp wow
Okay that was amazing. You definitely have a knack for the storytelling
Whow, i loved this. I expected something to happen at the end but I didn't expect it to be this. I love the metaphor and I love the "moral" if that's what its called. I also love how this is something personal, I feel like the best pieces come out of real feelings and experiences.
A "Control" game role play would be cool. You could do different triggers on random objects and say they're Objects Of Power. I think you'd make a good Trench or Darling.
I agree, it fits his style so well!
Oh my God yes
I just want you to know how gratefull I am that you nowadays post in my eveninghours. It is very comforting to get a nice, relaxing video when I come home from work.
And I am so very very sorry that I cant concentrate enough today to even understand everything. ( and I am pretty sure you arent even using that difficult vocabulary today) I am so sorry. I ll try again to tomorrow.
Have a nice day, stay safe.
thank you for everything you are doing
I went down to the description to find out who was the author of this story... and I got a wonderful surprise!
You, kind sir, is full of talents! We are lucky to have you around.
I bet I'm not the only one that would love to hear more stories writen by you.
This was great! Thank you
Love this! Amazing job!
You know I really am baffled that your videos aren't watched by more people. You're always putting so much effort and creativity into each piece.
I'd love to see more videos like this in the future. You have quite the voice for narration. Great work!
Dang. This hit me.
Excellent, Sailor. Just excellent.
Yesss. I've been waiting for another one of your story videos ❤
Bravo, sir! 👏🏻 Another brilliant story to bless our ears.
This is great. Especially good for my skull.
I just realized that you wrote this story, Sailor. I loved it, very well-written...this is my second listening of this video.
Great prose, great voice acting, great everything.
some things make me wonder how youtbe is free. this is one of those things
Woe!!! Sorry I'm so late to this one ! I love it man!
Love it not because its happy or anything but it's written and told well and I didnt know that simon was unconscious till exactly you said it
This was truly an amazing piece! It was well written plenty of great metaphors, twists and turns, and just fantastic story telling! You’re awesome and I always look forward to this type of content 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the bedtime story, Papa Scott!
This is going to be interseting to listen to. This has been cooking for more than 20 years? Congratulations on getting it out, I have so many story ideas that will never see the light of day that now I feel inspired to at least finalize one of them in some fashion.
Well, not like I’ve been thinking about it 20 years. Just had the idea 20 years ago.
"He was woke." Ok, Sailor... we get it, you're woke too.
But seriously, I like hearing you tell stories. If you're in the process of revisiting old stories, the one about money being deadly could be entertaining.
Masterful.
This is gonna be amazing, I can sense it🤣🤣
Just in time for my nap 😴
Yep
Great video, Sailor !
i didn't read the description on this, and the mounting suspense made me nervous as hell. no regrets! you make the only asmr content i insist on watching fully awake. you're great, but i'll be damned if i let you give me nightmares. 🤭
Maybe I'm just dumb and can't find it, but what happened to that video you had done recently where you played an eccentric therapist talking to a blonde woman who had (i think) attacked a coworker? I really enjoyed it and wanted to watch it again.
He mentioned that he wasn’t proud of it during a live stream and that he didn’t plan on bringing it back.
Hi, I can't seem to find the therapist video that you did with the actress. Is it gone for good? It was such a good video.
This hit maybe a little too close to home after spending some time in a hospital after a close friend was in a car accident earlier this year. A friend named... Derrick. Unsettled when your story worked out that way.
I'm sorry, I hope your story turned out better.
@@PhoenicianSailor Yes, I commented before I finished the video and am happy to say, while serious, that accident did not end the same way as this one. It was just a strange coincidence that brought back some memories hearing your story.
Damm... Love this a looot
Sir you are incredibly attractive and you look like you belong on the news channel, or in an old fashioned drama movie. My god. The setup is fantastic
the hose in the boot makes a hell of a lot more sense now...
Someone’s paying lots of attention
@@PhoenicianSailor yeah I have a lil thing known as big brain syndrome 😎 great story and video anyway, been a while since I dropped by your channel but I'll definitely stick around
More story time please :D
I would like to buy the watch your advertising in the thumbnail sir.
You bought it the moment you were born.
The start felt like I was at a forensics tournament 😂
we need johnny silverhand immediately
ON IT
@@PhoenicianSailor Still waiting patiently😌
Thank you, I was just going to sleep ✨
I am very distressed that you have not done a Rick grimes RP. You look just like him!
I love your voice
what happend to you and ephemeral rift because I loved the collab videos
God, I'm in love. 🥰😍
"The absurdist rub" Are you an absurdist, Sailor?
Sometimes.
@@PhoenicianSailor Ha, that about sums it up for me too.
This hit..
.hard... having lost three family members and 2 friends to suicide in the last 10 years
ok so like
- just how far ahead of me are you?
- like 6 hours?
Wow this was really well done. As someone who's inherited something pretty similar from his family, I could definitely relate to how it feels.
Best of luck to you, friend.
That was a touching story but I'm not sure what to make of it. Guess I'll have to reflect on it a bit longer...
Low light color banding is a plague on modern technology
Didn't really notice it here, you viewing at 4k?
@@PhoenicianSailor I just checked and you're right. I was viewing on my phone which is 4k (internal video resolution probably 1080.) On my 1080p laptop it looks a lot smoother.
I took a photo of my 1440p desktop monitor (with high brightness; it doesn't look *that* bad in real life) so you can get an idea of what it looks like. imgur.com/a/EZyNdci
ngl He Looks Like the Guy from Payday 2
Hope your channel has a John Wick video in here somewhere, u sound and look a bit like him
Facial hair upgrade
trying
I have commented
I have some questions please answer them❤️ :
1 . Give an advice for me about life
2. Do you like Resident Evil Franchise?
3. Do you like Silent Hill Franchise?
4. What’s your favorite Song and Movie?
Tnx for reading and attention ❤️🌹
1. Give, 2. VII very much, 3. II very much, also that one in the room, 4. I can only tell you today’s favorites: Song: Bibo No Aozora, Movie: Paris, Texas.
@@PhoenicianSailor Just listened to that song. Almost had me in tears. Thanks for sharing
@@PhoenicianSailor tnx a lot for sharing your thoughts ❤️
@@PhoenicianSailor and you said “give” please note what exactly?! What is your purpose?! I will do if I understand your feelings
I don't think the suit and beard is a good look because they clash. The only time James Bond has a beard in all the movies is Die Another Day when he's captured at the beginning. Andrew Lincoln looks good in The Walking Dead with with a beard because he's never dressed formally.
Jesus.
No.
Okay.
Lib
Losing hurts.
@@PhoenicianSailor if your into politics I guess either way you look at it America lost on both ends of the stick. There was a whole movement going on about something very important and we got two people who complete contradict what people were fighting for. The evidence proves it, do some research if you want to argue that. Losing might hurt but let’s be honest did “libs” really win?
@@PhoenicianSailor you prolly wear a mask while you drive 🤣🤣🤣🤣 #wearamask
@@luldrex1932 calm down, snowflake.
@@PhoenicianSailor ok “sailor” 👌💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
