Hi. Videos referenced in this video include "Nicest Hotel Room in the World" ua-cam.com/video/gktzh-GvfnI/v-deo.html
and the first ever vlogbrothers video: ua-cam.com/video/vtyXbTHKhI0/v-deo.html
Also A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor is available for preorder now. -John
But when does it come out? ;)
but where does two brothers on a hotel bed come from?
its a deathcab for cutie song
@@dob1997 It's a death cab for cutie song, a tiny slice of which was borrowed for the theme music to our first year of vlogging, back in 2007. (When you were probably ten!!! At least based on your username.) -John
@@dob1997 It's originally a song by Death Cab for Cutie ...
“Thank God that somebody likes something somewhere”
-John Green, 2020
My 2020 motto. -John
vlogbrothers I’m shocked it’s not “I’m gonna make it through this year if it kills me.”
+
+
This is the energy I want to bring into my world. #LetPeopleEnjoyThings2k20
A nerdfighterism I'm quite fond of is "I will continue seeing you".
+
+
+
+
+💟
honestly ‘be happy’ and ‘it’s just youtube’ really is solid advice
So true! -John
OMG my question was answered!!
Never would have expected that 😲
+
Orin just said "feel happy." No need to actually BE happy
that's my favorite bobby mcferrin song
The wall makes it look like there’s a Hank side and a John side. John’s side, fittingly, has grey(ish) walls.
I noticed that!
I thought the same and kept wondering if it was intentional. My guess would be that it was actually.
Isn't there always a Hank side and a John side?
Greyish speckled walls no less!
And the yellow Hank side matches the design on Hank's shirt!
The entrance joke never gets old.
+
Eventually they will get too old to do it though 🙃

+
+
I initially misheard John saying "Tony Hawks", and for a few moments just thought pro-skating had taken a really weird turn recently, lol
I had to look it up,; it took about 5 minutes for me to work it out.
I heard it correctly but just assumed John didn't know Tony Hawk's name
+
Glad I wasn't the only one #90sbaby
YOU ARE NOT ALONE O.O
“Harsh on your yums” is such a great mix of “harsh your mellow” and “yuck your yums”, I love it
I meant to say one or the other, I think? But I'm glad it worked for you! -John
@@vlogbrothers I thought you were quoting Dear Hank & John! I've been using "don't harsh on my yums" ever since I heard that episode
@@TheRandomnessLovers You're right and he does it frequently in subsequent episodes. It's practically a nerdfighter-ism in and of itself.
@@TheRandomnessLovers That's what I thought it was, too!
@@TheRandomnessLovers Yep, this is exactly the kind of Nerdfighterisms that they talked about in the video! Accept this one is now just part of John's vocabulary and he's forgotten the DH&J context. Which is AMAZING.
1. The Internet
2. Humanity
3. Porcupines/Jalapeño Poppers
It’s what we’re all thinking.
lol. -John
Honestly, they should probably put that on a t-shirt immediately.
Wait, two t-shirts. One with Porcupines, one with Jalapeno Poppers, see which one sells better. More out of curiosity than competition, but maybe also a little competition.
Rachel Ann good thought. But not having to choose between porcupines and jalapeño poppers is one of the things that makes being alive in 2020 worthwhile ;)
+
“Hank, I will see you...you know”
I love that moment
Same!!!!
same!
WHY do I love this moment so much?! I've watched it three times now.
It's just so genuine and loving and understanding between siblings. It's absolutely heart warming and I'm here for it.
'alright'
'alright'
'yup'
just really relatable.
John's disappointment at 1:18 when Hank still hasn't caught on yet is (dare I say it) an absolutely remarkable thing
nowhalle heyo
+
Bah-dum-tissss! 😂
And tbh expecting Hank to figure it out was a beautifully foolish endeavour.
++
John, your brother made a whole video about his book without mentioning the title or when it comes out, did you really think he'd get the theme?
+
+
+
+
+
I was expecting him to say
Round Ireland with a fridge in your pants
noooo
*Slow claps* One of the best I've encountered.
+
That also sounds like an interesting book hahaha.
Definitely a missed old Vlogbrothers reference! 😂
When asked "is humanity worth saving?" and they answered "yes".... I felt that.
Hank struggling to get the theme is glorious.
We all cried so hard at Little Women it is the most beautiful film.
DFTBA
Victoria Loughran and foolish 😂
and pretty foolish
Looking forward to seeing (the new) Little Women, but nothing on film will ever tear my heart out quite like Claire Danes looking at Winona Ryder and saying, "I can be brave like you."

@@mytmyt 100% truth.
THAT MOMENT. "The internet" and then "Humanity". It feels like an community inside joke or a lot of merch is gonna come off that moment. I can just feel it. I just can't tell the direction it'll take just yet.
How could you forget about porcupines?
A t-shirt that says ”The internet, humanity, and porcupines” would be amazing
@@roseslikemusic There would have to be a version with jalapeño poppers too though, and I'd have to buy both 😂
Both? Both. Both? Both's good.
@@pinianna First last and only time:
Sequin Shirt?
"thank god that somebody likes something somewhere." I really like that. I've been having a hard time since high school admitting that I like things. I'm trying to like things unapologetically more.
Shelby Hiromi +
+
I like that you're like liking things, cause "be happy"!
+
Same!
You know, it's crazy. They finish each other's porcupines.
+
+
I just guffawed out loud hahaha thanks for that!
+
That's what I was gonna say! ;)
I love John's mix of disappointment and contemplation when Hank didn't know what the theme was even though, it was kinda obvious.
Reunion videos are absolutely my favorite vlogbrothers videos ever. They make me so happy
I think my favorite part of this video is when Hank repeats the questions back to John in order to figure out the theme but rewords them to not include foolish or beautiful
my favorite videos are when you're together 😭😭❤❤
Same💖
Mine too! :) -John

"Auto power off still some glitches to work out"
PLEASE MAKE THIS A SHIRT I WILL BUY IT
An excellent proposal
+
Yes
I was actually thinking a baseball hat, bc my brain glitches a lot more now I'm 42yrs old 😜😂
+
it's exactly 4:00 long, how precise Green brothers, how precise
Took some work to get it to four minutes, but I did it! I had to cut an extended and really stupid bit about Rock Paper Scissors. -John
@@vlogbrothers Patreon-only extended vlogbrother cuts for charity?
I vote for a hankschannel behind the scenes
Yes please!
@@vlogbrothers Hopefully it'll be on the Director's Cut or the Gag Reel or something. I kinda like watching brothers be stupid together and when it's Hank and John, sometimes it's magical.
“Best wishes” is my everyday nerdfighterism that’s stuck with me
fencingowlphotos SAME! I find myself hearing John Green’s voice when I sign off emails. Worryingly, it no longer seems like a weird way to end a conversation.
The making of this video was probably a beautifully foolish endeavor and I loved every minute.
Thanks for the like and good luck with your tour!
Every airport I'm in: "The people in the airport think that I'm crazy!"
Every time I'm sick: Tiny Chicken Disease
Every UA-cam video: The doobly-doo
+ hard same.
Abby Ritter I agree with ALL of this.
it is only, ever, always, the doobly-doo.
"As you can see from the gray speckled walls behind me, I am in an airport." When I finally went to the airport, I looked around for a gray speckled wall and couldn't find one. I had to film myself saying that in front of a beige wall. Cue: "The people in the airport think that I'm crazy."
"The internet."
"And also, humanity."
"And porcupines!"
Can someone explain this?
I bet porcupines are pretty jazzed that they made the list.
Sometimes I feel like I'm a bit too old for youtube and the internet, I don't understand all the teen entertainment and social culture anymore, really. It gets me feeling like an outcast - but then I watch vlogbrothers and read the comments and I don't feel like that for a little while. (Not in a bad way!) I just appreciate the variety in this community. Thanks, guys.
Agree and also, I realize that I don't necessarily need to understand teen entertainment and social culture, just that teens aren't all that different than they were when I was that age. And to some degree, not all that different than I am now. And then alongside that, those Green Brothers and their wisdom beyond their years warms my heart and I think maybe, just maybe humanity is worth saving after all.
"I've got the Strawberry Hill if you've go the toilet paper."
I said this once to signal my agreement with a suggestion. It was not understood.
Sylvius the Mad Yeah, that’s pretty niche...

Pausing the video to say I love the framing! Accidental or not, the background split makes for an amazing visual!
Totally accidental. Whenever I make a good or interesting cinematographic choice, you can be sure it is accidental :) -John
I thought the title was saying Hank's side of the frame was the Foolish side, and John's side of the frame was the Beautiful side 😂
For those of you wondering (like I was), this is the definition of Penumbra:
pe·num·bra
/pəˈnəmbrə/
noun
noun: penumbra; plural noun: penumbrae; plural noun: penumbras
the partially shaded outer region of the shadow cast by an opaque object.
Astronomy
the shadow cast by the earth or moon over an area experiencing a partial eclipse.
Astronomy
the less dark outer part of a sunspot, surrounding the dark core.

thank you :)
Real siblings talk in tandem as if reading each other’s mind
Mere minutes after the other one had to explain something simple to them
++
I don't usually comment but I love how the title combined with the thumbnail makes it look like Hank is the foolish and John is the beautiful.
“Thank God that somebody likes something, somewhere,” is a whole big mood
I've never been so early to a video in all of my 11 years of UA-cam. And it's a vlogbrothers video!! This is much more exciting than it probably should be to me.
Me too 😁
Same! Got here seconds after it was uploaded
John: We very nearly had actual brothers on a hotel bed.
Me: (Pulls out Death Cab for Cutie album)
I think one of the stupidest/foolish moments of VlogBrothers history was when the Strawberry Hill wine was a punishment for making a video longer than 4 mins. Love you guys! Been watching since Brotherhood 2.0
I wish I could take John's delighted amusement at his brother's confusion at the start of this video and bottle it to give back to him when he was having a bad day.
“Auto power off, still some glitches to workout “ is such a Hank thing to say. 😂
The face of freaked out John when they both said “humanity” and “internet” is A M A Z I N G. Hank was so chill and John looked almost terrified by the thought that he and his brother where doing the creepy twin thing.
Lately one of my favourite words in the English language has been 'manhole', because it's such a good name for a pet
+
+
++ I continue to suggest this name to friends when they get a new pet and they look at me like I'm crazy
"I will see y- i will contin- alright"
Reunion video endings in a nutshell 10/10.
Edit: completly unrelated, but when I was in high school I had a stint with trying to find my beliefs and (partially) left the vlogbrothers circle for a little while. I have since found my core beliefs and have never been more happy to call myself an avid nerdfighter.
Have an amazing day everyone and dftba

ya boi Gabe Newell +
This video is foolishly beautiful.
Here you are talking about beauty, foolishness and the human endeavor.
The Nerdfighteria Discord has been trying to talk one of the mods through opening a tin can for the last hour.
LOOK HERE YOU
I’m sitting here at my desk absolutely wheezing and loosing it over this 🤣🤣🤣.
I really need to know more.
I guess maybe Hank should have called his new book "Favorite Word While Doing the Stupidest Thing You've Done" instead of "A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor"
God bless that man but good lord is Hank terrible at promoting his own book.
“Every movie makes me cry” same. Same.
Hank... I'm right there with you on the porcupines! So good!!!!
I read "Round Ireland with a Fridge" on your recommendation. Never laughed so hard in my life!
I love how Hank is staring off somewhere for most of the video, and John is just sitting there, staring at the camera, emotionless.
Nice composition with the wall creating a line in the image.
NO!!!!!!! I refuse to believe that this is a John video in which he curates the entire question tuesday to be centred around Hank's book without mentioning
- the title of the book (directly)
- the date of it's release
- the fact it's available to preorder now
A Beautifully Foolish Endeavour is currently available for pre-order in advance of it's release date July 7th 2020.
+
You know that moment when they say the same thing is real, because John cannot act with such authenticity (1:47).
I say that with utmost love (John jokes about his inability to act in the cut scene from TFiOS). I love the genuineness of the brothers, their relationship, and their love for the world.
+
1:28 is my favorite part of this entire video. Beautifully sums up brotherhood
The amount of concern on hank face at
"Auto power off" is priceless
Also you guys are my favorite! I make videos now too
Hey, I checked out your channel! I look forward to watching your vids, they look promising. And Curious Tangents- that's a couple of my favorite words right there.
@@ozkey1558 thank you so much! I appreciate it
" hank I will see you--- I will continue --- you know"
"yeah"
"alright"
*camera says bye*
I'm sorta partial to the word, 'Verisimilitude' !!! I had never really noticed until you commented...who knew there could be such a thing ???
Verisimilitude is a _wonderful_ word
You two answering at the exact same time, with the exact same words, made my heart and face smile.
It looks like you guys are in different rooms, minus John's shirt.
I'm just glad people are noticing that instead of my astonishingly crooked glasses. -John
@@vlogbrothers that's okay. Mine always get crooked too.
@@vlogbrothers I noticed. I was too polite to comment on it. None of us care if your glasses are crooked!
@@vlogbrothers I did actually notice that. But I thought it was "a style" you were going for. I will continue seeing you (in videos).
I didn't notice the glasses. And now I can't unsee it.
The best advice I ever received from my children was when my oldest was about 4. He was sitting there spacing out and I asked what he was thinking about and he replied "Just thinking my happy thoughts." I think about that a lot.
Hank, the theme shouldn't be that hard to guess. XD
1:48 John looks very shooketh
At some point, though, Hank'll need to do this to John and see how long it takes John to recognize that all the questions have "fault" or "stars" in them
"If you like Cats, that's great. Thank god that somebody likes something, somewhere."
Words to live by.
John: Good morning, Hank!
John's Eyes: touring is a scourge
Every time I see a new vlog brothers video it just makes my day better. Good days, bad days, and all the beautifully foolish ones in between.
I really like "extant;" it's got a sort of succinct weight. And "chartreuse," which is both novel and slightly pretentious.
Chartreuse is also the only color named after an alcohol. 😁
John's look at 1:33 when Hank can't for his life get the theme of the video is priceless
Have read Round Ireland With a Fridge and I WOULD recommend 4.75 stars.
The word “lovely” has worked its way into my everyday speech because of you guys.
Currently in the midst of a panic attack, and needed a distraction, THANKYOU 💖
I hope you're feeling better now. Panic attacks suck hardcore, but you are incredibly strong and they will pass
Emmasama240 I am! Thankyou so much for your kind words; so many people don't understand how horrendous they are to go through.
You're very thoughtful 💖🌻 😌
Orin’s advice “feel happy” is genuinely a good advice though, words like that somewhat hit different coming from toddlers
I LOVE Cats. My uncle was involved in the original production so I grew up going to the show and listening to the soundtrack. I know every melody and every word. When I was in my 20s I loved working in the area of London (Bloomsbury) where TS Eliot lived because so many place names are mentioned in it which are still there. it was my gateway into poetry and honestly I owe it a lot. I feel quite sad that so many people are now moved to yuck my yum based on clips of a movie without ever having seen or understood the musical. For the record I think the movie looks terrible but if you see it and like it, good for you!
I love how John restrains from having strong, negative opinion - internet is full of (sadly entertaining) "why XYZ sucks" videos, and it is so good to have a corner of internet free of that.
"It's just UA-cam" reminded me of a very sweet little tidbit in an article about Henri Jokiharju, a new defenseman on the Buffalo Sabres, my much beloved and not-particularly-good hockey team.* Jokiharju had pulled it together after a tough early shift and made a crucial game-saving play in the last minutes. He told an interviewer afterward that last year, an early shift would've thrown his whole game, but he's shifted his mentality thanks to advice from a fellow Finnish defenseman who's taken him under wing: "He told me that you can't stay on the small things. I think he sees the big picture. He just says to me, 'It's only hockey.'" It's just UA-cam, it's only hockey... advice we can all take to heart.
*Taken as a group, the Sabres' biggest claim to fame is that we lead the league in number of players named "Rasmus."
Is only game why you have to be mad
I'm on a Hank and John binge now. These two brothers are amazing. I'm going to be as amazing to my siblings.
It sounded like Hank said “Little Lemon” when asked what movie made him cry. Truly wish that were a movie, apparently it’s only a variety of lemon
my favourite foolish endeavour is in a similar vein to john's. a guy called dave gorman was drunkenly challenged to meet 54 other people also called dave gorman, and his search/obsession takes him across the world
“Best wishes” is currently my email sign off
“Thank God that someone likes something somewhere” is absolutely the vibe I’m bringing with me
"The Internet! Humanity! Porcupines/Jalapeno Poppers!" 🤣
Related with John so much when he said every movie makes me cry!
"I'm not here to yuck your yums."
A phrase I definitely need to introduce into my regular conversations, stat.
I really need to stop yucking people's yums. John is a role model for us all. :)
My very favorite videos are meetups with you both together. The dynamic is just so dang wholesome. Thanks for making this a nice space to occupy time on the internet.
1:48 OMG that happens that has happened to me and my sister its just so amazing and weird 😂😂😂
yes me too!! that feeling of just OH MY GOD WE HAD THE SAME THOUGHT is awesome
natali fortuna i tied my sibling at rock paper scissors 8 times in a row and it made it REALLY hard to decide who would pick the movie
@@connierobinson1090 the probability of that happening is (3/9)^8 and that is approximately 0.015% so that's 15 out of 100,000. So yeah it's impressive.
Hanks face at 0:28 is a masterpiece and my reason for hope
Hank "I want to see cats"
John perhaps the most in the most resolute tone possible "I don't!"
I think John has the popular opinion on this one.
I only watch intentional horror moves.
Thank god that somebody somewhere likes something is the energy my 2020 needs
"thank god that somebody likes something somewhere"
I like that the hotel room wall visually divides the two brothers
John: "Hank
Hank: "uhum"
John: "I will see you - I will continue - You know."
Hank: "Yep"
John: "A-ight"
This video brought me a weird amount of joy :)
Hank not getting the theme of the video for as long as that lasted is a top moment of my 2020 so far for sure.
1:47 Wow are these guys brothers or something?!?
Reunion video which is also a question Tuesday video. Oh my!
As soon as you started talking in sync my brain went: *Wow! It's almost as if they're brothers!*
Almost.....
The "twelfth" face, the crooked glasses, the shocked jinx of the internet and humanity... I just heart eyes all of this so hard.
I know for a fact that watching CATS will make John cry. And also make him question why it exists. And why we exist. The usual I suppose.
Thank you for being so so so kind on Saturday. It was an amazing show and getting to meet y'all was the cherry on top.
A beautifully foolish endeavor 😹
All this time and reunion videos still make me so joyous and excited
"harsh on your yums"????????
I needed the laughter I got from Hank not getting the theme of the questions. It's fun to see the many ways that John does book promotions for Hank.
