- Fellow Legends, welcome! Today we take a look at the dreaded Varus that has wrought chaos and stupidity globally for the last few years. Today we reminisce on toilet paper becoming an endangered asset and Karen unable to find a hair dresser as we look back at 2020 Episode 1: a New Varus. I highly recommend you go and check out the original video to show some support for the source material
There is a cut towards the end of the video, there were certain copyright restrictions I had to address and cut from the video. If you are interested in what that cut content was, you can still see that Amsterdam Caramelldansen video title, which I highly recommend you watch if you haven't yet.

1:19:28 YES. My grandma used to work security at a nuclear power plant, and on Christmas Eve one year her manager told everybody "Keep an eye out for Santa tonight" and everybody took it as a joke. Come around 2am, and theres one of these security checker dudes sitting in one of the reactor control rooms, dressed as Santa Claus. This man, snuck into a power plant wearing a bright red suit and NOBODY noticed him until he was already in a location that could have been a serious risk if he was an actual criminal or terrorist.
The absolute Legend.
6:05 This is false. Blood is still red without oxygen, it only gets darker in shade. Veins appear blue due to the layers of skin on top.
Also the fact blood is usually oxygenated anyway, even without being exposed to the air. Since its... Yknow... An oxygen delivery system for the body.
It can be layered like:
VERY dark red
Lighter skin colors above turn that to a grayish
Contrasting with red makes it look blue
A'ight, as a guy that just spent a semester studying this shit, I'll give you the lowdown on the G's. The difference in G's goes basically as such (oversimplified):
1G didn't transmit voice as digital signal, it was analogue (essentially a glorified radio, each call used a radio frequency within a spectrum, making each cell tower extremely low capacity)
2G is fully digital, has encryption (when the carrier activated it), and is overall an improvement. Easy to integrate with the cabled network too.
3G became the standard for actual Internet use due to a bunch of improvements with full IP traffic support and we have simultaneous use of Internet, telephony and multimedia at the same time
4G and 5G are basically just higher efficiency in a bunch of ways
Another point is higher G's mean there's more towers that consume lower power overall. The direction is basically making smaller cells with better efficiency and lower power consumption. Ironically, since higher G's use higher frequencies they have lower penetrative power but higher data throughput (which kills the argument of radiation poisoning, in a sense).
Thank you for the breakdown! I really appreciate it.
About the hysteria itself... that was caused by China's own launch of the largest 5G network at the time and it happened only a month before the first patient confirmed with Covid. So, conspiracy theorists started to believe that this 5G was something very special and didn't treat the time of the launch as a coincidence.
Quick correction. The blood in your veins is not blue; that's a myth. Your veins appear blue due to how your skin reflects light.
Then what color is it really?
It's still somewhat red, just duller
Think sort of like blood clots
As someone who gets his blood drawn on a semi-regular basis, blood is drawn from our veins. It is not blue, just a very dark red.
It depends on whether it's oxygenated or not. Oxygenated blood is bright red while it's dark red when it's returning to the lungs.
I always thought the veins are just either Red or blue depending on if they take blood out of the heart or into the heart
Random "reaction" channel: makes a video 5 min longer than the original.
Kip: makes a 1 hour 30 reaction video for a 23 minute video.
Insta-subbed
I have to actively try to not go 2+ hours every video XD
Ah the days where toilet paper was in short supply, but actual essentials weren’t.
Sometimes I miss it.
Imagine the violence when actual essentials are in short supply.
If you thought you were gonna have an aneurysm with part one, just wait until part two. That's when it gets really wild.
Just wait for tomorrow then, that's when it drops 😎
Sometimes I forget about how insane people's behavior was during the height of the pandemic. Then I come across videos like these and get a headache all over again.
It almost feels like a fever dream, right? Then you remember these people still exist.
@@KipReacts You know what they say; "Individuals are smart, people are dumb"?
@@ardantop132na6 I see this in action every single day.
Speaking of impersonation, in Australia years ago a guy managed to impersonate a cop for like 6 weeks, he managed to steal enough police equipment that everyone thought he was a real cop. It gets better, he actually did the job, taking witness testimony at a crash scene and doing general duties. He didn't get charged and only had to do some community service.
Problem with the toilet paper thing is it becomes a self fulfilling prophesy. The moment people think it's going to run out, they make sure it runs out. Those who would just be sensible and buy what they need often end up being the ones to take the consequences of the stupidity...
I was the clerk in aisle 13 of my store in 2020, this aisle was paper products and candy. 2 hours into my shift on New Years day my concerns that my Store Manager was in fact severely brain damaged were confirmed and after 2 weeks I finally got to just run the candy part of the aisle because people had bought out all the paper plates to wipe themselves. Managed to get Covid in 2022 long after I got vaccine shot 3 so 5 days of unpaid vacation. Most entertaining 3 years I've ever had.
On supply chain section:
I always thought "why couldn't they just sell more of their stuff in larger quantities, even if it's priced below cost? If they destroy it, they will make 0 money back, while selling it for pennies might recoup at least some of the money"
And I came up with 2 hypotheses:
- optimistic - selling, delivering and storing perishables costs money
- pessimistic - if people buy a ton of stuff cheap, that means they won't have to go buy anything for quite a while. Companies make a quick buck in exchange for 0 profits for a long time, and going back to destroying stock anyway. (Capitalism hard at work lmao)
The most ideal, utopic solution would be preserving the perishables. Eggs could be processed into protein powder, milk - into powdered milk. Tomatoes, fruits could be juiced, and their juice concentrated, etc. But that requires a near instant response by the government, and in case of America - massive overreach. Even more so - readiness for such shenanigans by the free market (plants, factories, workers on standby). But it's better than wasting what limited resources soil has.
Point for the optimistic side, one of the best ways of improving soil is by plowing in a bunch of organic matter. Organic fragments in the soil hold onto moisture and nutrients better than clay and silt. If you aren't growing beans, it's also a good way of working nitrogen into the soil.
The G stands for Gigabyte, it's related to the speed of transfer of data.
I remember the toilet paper craze. I work at Kroger and we were constantly harassed by customers over it all day for 2 months. I bought a massive ~60 roll pack at aldi the month before it happened in like January 2020 and it lasted me until like October so I never had to worry so I just laughed at everyone who panicked
I worked in a US McDonalds during the Toilet Paper insanity. We entirely ran out multiple times in a single week because people kept cracking open the dispensers to steal whole rolls, and finally had to close the restrooms entirely until they got more and had our maintenance people stand in the restrooms all day to keep people from stealing any more!
Jeeesus, the reaction I got when I suggested that there are alternatives to toiletpaper...
XD Yep, people could not comprehend.
@@KipReacts The thing that fascinates me is that it was such an universal phenomenon almost everything he talks about happend here in Germany as well.
@@Crow-T-German-Robot I'm convinced the entire world was just off the rails at that point in time XD It still is, but the Varus definitely messed with people.
Gonna be real with you, I was working at a grocery store when COVID started up, I was being paid an extra 500 a week, plus unlimited overtime. I was in absolute love with my job at the time and I kept scaring people on purpose just so they would stay home and leave their hours to me. I'd tell my elderly managers that it was already here and they just didn't know it yet, and it was eventually going to infect everyone, only the strong would survive.
I got three promotions that year.
I live in Australia, and my town I'm in did not give a shit and when we saw the people fighting over toilet paper on the news me and my family laughed so hard it hurt our side
Didn't give a singular crap about the hysteria or the "health" policies from the corpo/governmental overlords. Somehow, much to the chagrin of the lemmings, I'm still alive. Almost like nearly all of that shit was made up to see how obedient people would be. And sadly, most fell for it hook, line, and sinker.
Fun fact: Cows actually don't produce all that much carbon given their population size. Most of what they produce with methane is made with carbon dioxide that they breathe in. Even then, methane decays really fast so it doesnt really stack in the atmosphere before its broken back down. In fact, they are a part of the fight against carbon since they eat food waste from wheat and soy that humans can't eat. If that rots, that's actual carbon being converted into a gas due to how decomposition. There's definitely a footprint, mainly in transportation, but it's far smaller than what most people think. That's largely due to advancements in farming tech and efficiency.
25:48 I counted, let's say each box has 36 rolls, times that by 48 and boom 1728 rolls of ass wipes
1:15:49 it always gets me
I was working at Walmart when people were panic buying toilet paper and someone pulled a gun on one of my coworkers when they where told we had run out.
It's fucked that it even got close to getting that bad.
The entire toilet paper thing made me question if i just used WAAAY less toilet paper than everyone else... By the time the "panic" hit, i had 3 rolls left in my 8 pack of toilet paper, and even then, i couldn't remember when i actually bought it, which means it must have been a long time ago!
And once i was told the specific symptoms to look for, explosive avalanches of poo wasn't on the list, meaning i probably didn't have to worryabout it for a while either...
46:00 No, that's Alexander Lukashenko, the President of Belarus, aka Putin's lapdog.
I'm a semi truck mechanic, I've been working ever since the start of the varus because those wheels had to keep rolling. People thanked the truck drivers for like, a month, but we never got any thanks. Not saying I was looking for it but never forget about the guys behind the scenes keeping the whole show going.
Also please get jobs as technicians.... The whole industry is so short staffed it's not even funny lol
Thank you for keeping us stocked and the wheels going, truck drivers are criminally underrated and you guys keep so many things afloat. From one essential worker to another, thank you.
11:02 I remember the original Brawny paper towel guy because he looked identical to my father. Used to joke that he was the model, but it was purely coincidental.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that remembers him.
1:00:54 “Attack chickens”
Have a sign out front that says “beware of cocks”
Man that thing you said about all the appreciation for people who still had to work and how it dried up anyone who works in postal service never saw a drop of that appreciation even though most of us had to work harder and longer it was the Christmas season but worse and for longer during the lockdown and I just feel for all the people who had to do all that work and have it go damn near unnoticed
It's a societal problem, it's lead to so much burnout.
I remember the craziness surrounding toilet paper. Made me a little proud of myself that I survived the whole shortage with just a single 6-pack that I bought before I even heard about the TP runs.
Ah yes...I guess you'd say I was lucky. I live alone and had bought my usual pack of toilet paper prior to the sudden freak out. It lasted me the whole time the shortage was occurring. I also work at a hospital, so I never got to enjoy having time off during quarantine. Life continued on perfectly normal to me. (I'm also a home hermit and introvert, so barely anything about my life changed during quarantine) In fact, I really liked the lack of cars on the road and I LOVED the fact that restaurants were now doing carry out. xD And yes, as a healthcare worker, we did sort of get tired real fast of what felt like shallow praising for doing what we've always done and never been praised for before. Plus after many quit, we were stressed trying to pick up the workload. It was rough times, for sure.
Thank you for meme an absolute Lengend and working on medicine. You guys are seriously underappreciated and I'm sorry how society at large has treated you through this all.
@@KipReacts Thx. On the plus side, we now have our war stories to tell the newer generation of healthcare workers. 😁
Yea, even "empty" propane tanks can be dangerous. My sister's ex father in-law found that out the hard way. Went to cut one open with a torch, a 100 gallon one, I think. It picked violence. Luckily, he didn't die from the explosion, but it messed him up from what I heard.
46:00 It's a president of Belarus.
I ran out of toilet paper right when this shit happened.
Super markets were making bank.
46:39 a cure for the virus? Of course it is a Corona beer. It makes perfect sense.
I'm pretty sure the reason people panicked about toilet paper is before people were concerned they wouldn't be able to restock it from the store if they were forced to stay in their homes for weeks
to be honest, I'm feeling that ron swanson mentality about strip clubs, if they have a breakfast buffet with biscuits and gravy... if it's good heck yeah.
39:05 I don't think anonymity is the issue here, feels like you're advocating for a police state or some shit 💀
working during lock down was kinda rad, nobody on the roadways
I kinda miss that to be honest. Traffic anymore is awful.
Yeah it was rad here in Germany. I was the only one on the Autobahn in the morning in a 1km area. You could drive like on a race track.
The funny thing about the empty shelves is it dosent show the fact all the vegan stuff and imitation meats were still fully stocked even in a panic pandemic no one wanted it.
yeah i started stocking on basic supplies like masks, gloves and started scrubbing a hell of a lot more in mid december when it had already exploded in china. I have a lot of family members who are doctors and even as early as that it had a lot of people concerned and early projections about the spread were concerning. Turned out of was fucking good i "was being paranoid" because patients 1-10 in my country were two streets away and the first explosion of cases in my country was in my city. Ppl were giving me weird looks that i was going out constantly with mask and gloves way before the mandate but i didn't give a shit, i got two elderly people that i care about and i can't afford to put em at risk, what did annoy me was all the idiots who refused to wear masks or intentionally wore them wrong and then harassed people that were actually trying to protect themselves. And we still got people saying COVID doesn't exist or never happened, FFS we had western country that had to resort to mass graves like italy did initially in some areas because the bodies were piling up so fast and yet ppl are still in la la land. One thing that does give me hope in the future somewhat is that as soon as winter started and the flu season came, more people then ever got vaccinated for that and got booster shots for COVID and decent amount of people are going around in mask at their own initiative and some stores mandate their workers wear em.
15:16 as a 17 year vet of IT retail... I envy that you still have some faith left for humanity...
Kip... At 30 minutes and 20 seconds you're telling me that you are unfamiliar with the Goosebumps theme song.
XD saying it comes from a meme
The amount of stuff that I haven't watched and basic sourcing for memes that I don't have is always surprising. XD
I never watched Goosebumps and somehow never really came across clps so that's probably how I missed it.
@@KipReacts it was a pretty good kids series it revolved around scary stories
Coconut Crabs scare the hell out of me. If I saw even one I would run as fast as I can.
Tories, (specifically boris) had 2 hospitals built actually.
So the reason Internet Historian is "bullying" the australians in this video is because...well, he lives there and he's essentially reporting this as his perspective.
So technically...it's not bullying, it's just news lol.
ah yes the toilet paper shortage lmao, i was working night shift at a bakery then, more or less when i started to when i finished all shops where closed, i was under a rock for most of that xD.
what i remember though is staying back 2 or so hours just to make Block Loaf since people where buying extra to freeze
I have faith in humanity, just not all humanity.
The G in 5G stands for Generation. It is the 5th generation of wireless data technology. The speeds are significantly increased from 4G.
What's with the Musk hate?
Bad ahri down mid... I feel attacked
7:38 no ppl were worried about wiping their ass
During the Pandemic I worked in an Acme and things were crazy.
I also graduated from University in May of 2020 so that was interesting.
a like and a comment for algo
also 52:58 a friend keeps showing me clips of your reacts videos about your L5R talks and we're trying to guess your clan lmao. We also used to play and the L5R references brings us a whole lot of nostalgia
1hr 30m to get through a 20 minute video, lmao
LOL the family that got the 48 boxes of tolet paper remided me of something my mom did, My mom was obbsessed with cherry flavored soda, online she found a really really good deal on what she thought was cherry sprite, so she bought as much as she was allowed come a week later I go out to get the mail and I just see not a box not sevral boxes but a freaking PALLET of not cherry spite but Spirte cranberry nobody in my house likes cranberries we couldn't give this stuff away fast enough I still have a few boxes lying around somewhere
Damn, and Sprite Cranberry was actually really damn good.
Not my favorite limited soda flavor, but it was pretty good.
That's not prosciutto, that's a ribeye steak.
My Favorite one Shoving Listerine up your nose
Love internet historian 😂👌
49:40 I loves correcting people who correct people on this. Octopi vs Octopusses. The i plural is of Latin origin and the es plural is Middle English origin . You are right that Octopus is a Greek derived word so the correct pluralization would actually be "octopodes".
I got covid back in march and I had to argue with my work to let me use 3 of my vacation days. They wouldnt let me use 5.... I wish I got covid when it was still cool and people cared.
I listen in intentionally for five minutes and somehow I catch you mentioning freaking IDAHO!!! -.- hello, fellow Idahoan?
Im from the uk and i “borrowed” some TP from work
Utah never gave a shit.
Utah is a very strange place from my understanding. XD I hear on good authority SLC is just slightly "off", I like to imagine SLC is Desert Bluffs.
@@KipReacts As a native, i can confirm you arent far off.
39:36 Don't involve Christianity in your jokes 🤦♂️ especially considering your just assuming with no evidence, you don't wish to offend anonymous due to their "force" but religious people especially Christians are A-Okay? I'd bet you wouldn't do that for Muslims given what I think you know about them when it comes to "force" huh?
God 2020 was wild. On top of the pandemic, there was the whole BLM movement, then a presidential election in the US between two people that, we didn’t really want, but given the choice we took the one who wasn’t actively making the US look incompetent and stupid.
Honestly, I don’t think the chaos ended until after January 6th, 2021.
I carry no matter what.
Way late to the party here, Kip, but at 1:22:50 Musk has what the Germans would call "Backpfeifengesicht" (It's been too long, I probably butchered that spelling) but it means "a face in need of a fist" or something similar. Basically a fancy word for punchable. He's got a smug, punchable face.
Oh lord not the whole cows producing co2. First off, its not co2, its methane. And if it was such a large amaunt that it would even compare to that of a single road worth of trafic, we could make a methane powered power plant. Like for example, a regular landfill can create more methane.(rember that methane naturaly turns in to co2 and water vapour in rughly 2-5 years, so the whole thing of methane being a biger greanhouse gass holds less credibility) and two. The carbon that cows produce is in a closed loop. Where carbon gets absorbed by rain,plants and so on. Then said carbon is reused (ever seen a terarium that is never opened for years? You will see that again a animal living wont add carbon magicly, thinck of the whole planet as said terarium) The dam issue is us ADDING EXTRA CARBON IN TO THE LOOP. For example our favourite fossil fuels. Now the actual fix to this cause? Well its simple. Its creating more swamplands. Swamps and the plantlife that live in them, have the higest rates of co2 absorbtion, while regular forests are useful and needed. They are susebtible to masive forest fires which marshlands are more resistant to. And secondly, swamplands would help save many and i do mean many endangered species of animals and plants. However that would be a long term goal. A short term but expensive method would be dumping iron dust in to the ocean that is far from any landmass. Because many bacteria, alge and plankton can photosythetise, however they require sustinence via sun and iron (they have a proces thats is similar to a mitocondria, however insted of glucose they use iron/rust to create energy. Aldough they do have both, they still need trace amaunts of iron to live) And a few tests have proven that the population of the aformentioned microrganism incresed masively for a time via iron dumping. This would make the co2 decrease but o2 increase. Where it could even get dangerus if overused (unlikely bit it could hapen) aaand as a side efect of o2 increasing, would make insects a bit larger. Hope ya like big spiders. Thank you for listening to my ted talk, and i apologise for any speling mistakes

Shut down everything and everyone lost there minds
What did i do between march 19th 2020 -march 19th 2023
I watched all of one piece
Broooo, stop pausing mannnnnnnn...
Modern videos have fixed a lot of the extended pauses.
I always leave the original video information in the description if someone wants to watch the unedited original video. It's my obligation to make the reaction transformative yet paced well and entertaining.
Lockdown stories made me lose my faith in *most* of humanity. I only have faith in a select few, the rest can go to Hell imo, they made me pro-social darwinism and eugenics. (Jk...mostly)
Imagine not donating your leftover crop to the homeless, hospitals, etc.
