“It is far more valuable to be intentionally kind with an equal capacity for putting your foot down, than it is to be unintentionally passive and peaceful”
Links below, but first:
if you comment complaining about the mixing i will doxx you. it genuinely sounds fine to me, and i’ve also never watched a video where i didn’t have to turn it down at certain places and turn it back up a minute later so goodluck watching all videos forever i guess. Also. i’m not a fucking youtuber, i literally screen record these and press post, why these videos get so many views idk. But don’t comment complaining about the quality like i have any sort of way to fix that lmfao, if you wanna drop some editing apps then fine, but if you complain i’m coming to ur house and robbing you. okay bye.
Please don’t comment “why didn’t you include x clip” it’s a pet peeve and drives me nuts lol, if i didn’t include a clip you think i should’ve it’s either bc i forgot or bc it just didn’t apply to the prompt of the vid!
also please don’t comment asking for links! i will provide links where i can but other than that i will put where you can find them. ok bye!
For context, i wanted to include only clips where BRENNAN is being confrontational or saying “this person sucks fuck them” But also included clips of him voicing his opinions on people who he thinks sucks thru character. So i didn’t include a bunch of characters from d20 bc they aren’t always examples of his organic (healthy ofc) aggression.
okay that’s it :3 ty for vibing
Video 1, 5, and 7 are from adventuring party season misfits and magic episode wet fire on drop out
video 2 • Like The Show | 'Would...
video 3 • Warren - UCB NY Cagema...
video 4 is from the Ceo bonus footage on drop out for the hardware store ceo
video 6 is from drop out’s psychic game show

Brennan basically mugging a dude for breaking his friend's glasses while the dude's friends ditched him is probably the funniest story I've heard in my entire life
No but fr, when he reminded us about the moustache I legitimately couldn't breathe for a solid 30 seconds. What an incredible guy.
vigilante justice
"The blue bandito strikes again!"
"Roll for initiative"
I was enjoying it, and then he said "you gotta remember, full blue handlebar mustache" and I friggin lost it
‘My violent Irish ancestors have possessed my body. They’re like, “You don’t drink, you’re not catholic, you’ll at least fight. You’re gonna fight!”’
Its just in our blood, folk of the emerald isle are gentle as lambs... until ya push em, then regardless of how far descended you are the hound of Ulster awakens in you.
@@brandonangstman as someone with an irish grandnmother shed hit for saying shes gentle, with whatever the nearest footwear is
You gotta have at least one or risk possession. I myself chose the Catholic route as the other two are much more likely to land me in trouble.
@@TrueDescipleas an Irishman the whole country has basically disavowed the Catholic church since the Ryan report. So you'll have to return your Irish card or take up drinking, listening to trad or watching gaa
@@darragho6358 I've actually never heard of the Ryan report. I'll take a look into that. I may be a Catholic, but trust me, I haven't had much faith in the church itself for a while. I appreciate the insight and will start drinking now.
Brennan shouting "Coward! COWARD!!!"
Is actually the MOST Brennan thing to do, not even gonna lie.
Agreed. I was a little worried about Brennan there, but as soon as he started yelling "Coward. COWARD!", I was like "Yup, that's our Brennan"
Never has a story of a mugging been so wholesome.
Maybe that time a guy tried to mug uncle Iroh
Technically Brennan was the potential mugger in that story,😂
Be the change you want. Face paint is cheap.
dont think ill ever find such a wholesome crime again
“give me all your money” my jaw dropped
Hobbesian traps are wild.
It's not robbery, the other guy was paying for property damage.
@@fenixmeaney6170 It's still, legally, robbery. There are legal avenues you have to take in order to be reimbursed by an unwilling party.
Now, I will say, I fully condone shaking this dude down and robbing him. Being an aggressive, stupid dickhead has a cost.
@@fenixmeaney6170 You can argue morality until the end of time.
However, from the legal standpoint its very much robbery. Forcibly paying for property damage can only be enforced by an official court after all sides have had their cases heard. You cannot legally demand someone pay what you think they owe you at the threat of violence, that's robbery.
@@fenixmeaney6170 Yeah, as the other guy said, robbery is a legal term.
The lesson here is that not all felonies are evil acts. Doesn't make them any less felonious.
We often have this assumption in our heads that criminals are all/mostly bad people, but if you listen to anyone who's been to prison, you get a very different picture.
“You don’t drink, you’re not catholic. You’ll at least fight.” 😂
And have a sound distaste for the English, apparently
@francescogulisano2917 as well he should 😊
The fightin' Irish are not a stereotype, but rather a description
I'm Irish and I approve of this message.
Why doesn't Brennan drink?
If anything I admire Brennan more now, dude knows when to commit a felony for the right reasons. I can only aspire to this.
If you want to get cucked and your partner/wife is down I am happy to help you achieve your aspirations 😉😘
Eh, laws are fake anyway. Do the right thing.
Shouting “COWARD!” after the running crustpunk you just beat the shit out of is so fucking funny
It’s so damn perfect
Brennan Lee Mulligan, in real life, defeats a “bandit” and cannot physically restrict himself from “looting” them from decades of RPG conditioning. What a legend
I bet that to this day that guy still hears Brennan's voice yelling "COWARD!" before he goes to sleep at night.🤣
That first story about the guy "taking the piss", as a person from a British colony where we do routinely take the piss I can tell you that guy was just bad at it. Like at the very least you're meant to be somewhat witty about it, incorporate knowledge of the person and show that you're familiar enough to take the piss in the first place. Just indiscriminately calling someone's girlfriend ugly isn't it. Then he makes it everyone else's problem with the standard gaslighting, "You're too sensitive," line.
Yeah that breaks the unwritten rules of banter. You're supposed to take the piss out of the person, not the people or things they care about. He should have said "fucking hell you're punching above your weight" or something to that effect
@@DannyEastes That's actually perfect lol, the underhanded compliment is the way to go.
One time I told my British boss that I was dating someone and he immediately asked "What color is their seeing-eye dog?" That's solid piss-taking.
Yeah as a Brit myself if I think what Ive said as a piss take has legitimately upset someone I apologize. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. I just want to make fun and for them to do the same to me. But I wouldn't stoop to calling someone's partner a dog. That's uncalled for
The way East Coast Americans and British people do comedic insincerity and confrontational banter is different, and both can be sensitive to the other kind because they’re unfamiliar with it.
Doesn’t mean either of them are actually over-sensitive.
The Blue Handlebar Bandito has got to be my new favorite Brennan story. Just like that first fist thrown, it came out of nowhere.
Lol
There are people who are just instinctively nice, and then there are people who have made a calculated choice to be nice because they believe that most people deserve to be treated nicely.
You don’t wanna fuck with the latter.
That "most" is doing some heavy lifting.
Holy shit, that's poetry.
Truer words, truer words...
When you’re one first and then you figure out you have to be the other one to survive is usually how that works
Sources personal experience
@@Lucifersfursona Same here. Realized that being nice doesn't always work. Sometime you gotta be nasty! Also you don't break someone's glasses. The glasses industry is fucked up, I have to pay like $400 for glasses.
@@Xhalph Minor disagreement. ‘Deserve’ has been doing the most lifting, ever, because it means something different to everyone who uses it.
Like, ‘deserve’ implies that it’s ‘earned,’ and that circles to capitalistic mentality where one is allowed or denied decency according to biased whim, as opposed to just _being_ decent as a default, no?
He didn't just punched the guy, he straight up beating him lmao
and he’s valid!
@@wizardzimbimThe cop Um Actuallying the story was so funny.
@GZilla311 the cop says that's robbery, I say he's taking the money he rightfully earned a la Pokémon
@@Auditore31 That said, I would say that it’s robbery in Pokémon, too. At least from the little kids.
@@GZilla311 if that preschooler didn’t want me to hospitalize his pets and take his lunch money he wouldn’t have jumped me with said pets
Brennan oozes safety, not only do I feel like I could say the absolute wildest thing that comes to my mind and he would earnestly engage but also, is ready to fight at any moment for the right reasons
Just don't call Izzy a dog's breakfast :D

I try not to idolize normal people, Brendan Lee Mulligan is just a man, but certainly a good one
As far as we know.... (dun dun duh!) ;P
*brennan, and same !
I don't idolize him... I just have a HUGE crush on him.
Imagine being your own whole person with a core memory of getting fucking decimated by college age Brennan Lee Mulligan wearing a blue handlebar mustache, and then like. Opening UA-cam one day. Or getting into DnD. Genuinely what must that life be like
I doubt that guy is whole after that
@@shotosynthesis312 I genuinely think he might've thought about his life choices after that. He talked shit, got beat up in front of his friends, and then they abandoned him. That's a pretty good way to start thinking your life over
I believe this is what the kids describe as "fuck around and find out".
It would be like getting your ass beat by Mr. Rogers, no?
Like, imma be honest here, with a lowlife grifter like that, I highly doubt he lived long enough to witness Brennen’s ascension into dropout formally college humor
"You don't drink, you're not Catholic, you're AT LEAST gonna fight" God I identify with that quote so much.
Brennan taking that jacket off in the old man clip was so true to how old guys move - I swear my grandpa has made that exact movement before lol
he really managed to nail the movement style of an old man with arthritis in every single one of his joints and it contrasts wonderfully with the language he's using
As someone who works with kids, I absolutely love "We made up the rules." Every single kid ever born is a real life rules lawyer. They will twist the exact wording of any rule to try to get what they want. Most of the time it's harmless, but I am absolutely stealing "we made up the rules" if I ever run into a kid trying to be a little shit like the one in Brennan's story.
I have used something like this on all four of my children. It usually manifests as 'if you would someday like to make the rules you need to be better than average' My wife was uncomfortable with the idea at first but it appears to work. And my youngest are twins...they will negotiate and twist on everything, as a team!
It's something I occasionally use both with the kids I work with - but also people being little shits in communities for which I moderate. They do something that is TECHNICALLY within the rules, but very much going against the spirit of it. They try saying "oh, but I didn't break any rules!" And I just say "no, you didn't, but you're clearly testing the limits of them and trying to see if you can get me to react in the 'wrong' way, according to the rules. You're doing this, despite knowing better, but here's a little secret: unlike you, I am allowed to break the rules. And if you are KNOWINGLY rude, spiteful, and annoying, I will be much, much worse in response, because you have the follow the rules when being annoying; I don't."
The juxtaposition of the cat photo and the luck spot story is incredible
The line "1. We made the rules" goes so hard.
I find Brennan's mugging story fascinating... The way the fight or flight reflex works is so interesting, and the way panic might cause a completely calm nice person to lash out like that... The human body is scary like that
I’m honored that my podcast 99 Questions was featured on this! Y’all are so incredibly supportive, and Brennan is an absolute gem. May the Blue Handlebar Bandido ride again!
omg HI BOB :D
I'm so glad I watched this video because I was introduced to your absolutely awesome podcast! Such a great way to interview people and how different their answers are. Love it!
I didn't know about your podcast before, but this video made me start listening to it.
I listened to this episode while working an overnight cleaning at my job. really made my night, gave me some good smiles and laughs on a day I worked 11 hours and had been awake for 38. I appreciate you! rock on
There's something intense about stories of the nicest people alive absolutely losing their cool. That last story is especially impactful, hearing how someone who apparently intends to embody a stereotype of violence getting their shit kicked in by and running away from someone with a blue moustache drawn on his face.
The legend of the Blue Handlebar Bandito lives on.
Brenna's Adventuring Academy story about that bully kid who provoked another and got pissed that "they weren't following the rules" is such massive Reddit energy.
r/amitheasshole
AITA for getting mad after a kid beat me up?
So, like the title says, I was at a summer camp and I was just having a laugh with another kid at camp. He wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed so I would poke fun at him from time to time but it was just harmless fun. One day, though, as I’m talking to this kid he, completely unprovoked, starts punching me hard. I got up and immediately some counselors came over and I explained to them what happened. For context, at this camp violence is incredibly frowned upon and you should get sent home for being violent. This kid, however, didn’t get sent home and this is where I’m wondering if I’m the asshole. I got mad and complained to the counselors that it was against the rules for that kid to not be sent home, but they just told me that that’s how institutions work and some other bs. So reddit, am I the asshole?
Let’s note a couple things here, the above post doesn’t mention anything about how the kid responded *before* getting violent, and the poster downplays their own actions heavily. I also use the phrase harmless fun to put in the reader’s mind how the violence is totally an overreaction. I also add in a subtle concession by saying, “this is where I’m wondering if I’m the asshole” to make it look like I’m genuinely considering whether I’m in the wrong when I’m clearly not depicting that way, putting an idea of “fairness” in my reader’s mind. These are common tricks people use to skew stories in their favor by bending the truth. There’s always two sides to a story and contrasting this with brennan’s description of the situation can lend itself heavily to understanding how the story *actually* played out.
“We made up the rules” is such a raw line that that kid is gonna remember his whole life
@@smartaleckduck4135NTA your camp your rules
Then imagine knowing about the bullying for a long time and letting it continue that long. The fact that none of the staff did anything about the bullying even though they knew about it just makes them( yes, even Brennan) look bad.
It’s a really difficult situation for the camp staff. We had an issue at my two week day camp last summer, and it’s more complicated than you might think. You have to talk to the parents, try different things to see if you can get them to stop, and talk to the administrators/people with more authority in the camp about what they’ve done in the past to handle things. The rules might not be made for that specific situation, so they might not have broken them by being mean to the other kids.
The counselors often don’t have the ability to say when someone has crossed the line and won’t be allowed back so it requires a constant game of telephone with the people that do. It took almost a week of parent complaints, and one girl refusing to be in the same room as him, before this kid was taken out of our camp and honestly it could’ve been longer. Easily.
"And that kid, Mark Zuckerberg."
FUN FACT: On a sort of related note, fellow Billionaire Elon Musk, as a child, once got thrown down a flight of stairs AND HOSPITALIZED because HE MADE FUN OF THE FACT THAT A CLASSMATES DAD COMMITED SUICIDE. Musk's dad took the classmates side btw.
Deserved
are all billionaires psychopaths/socially stupid? cause im gonna be honest that would make a lot of sense
edit: forgot warren buffet, whoops
The girl who said that to another at my school got expelled. I was surprised the school even took it seriously.
The reason I'm surprised is because the principal sucked, not because I don't think the situation is serious
That’s the nicest thing I’ve ever heard about Elon Musk’s dad.
@@kunderwo33literally, same 😂
the thing to me about the first story is that the british guy framed the joking insult as taking the piss out of someone, but he didn't do it to the person he was *talking* to. he did it to someone *that person cares about*. and i feel like most people are not going to take very kindly to that. like i'm not the kind of person who would enjoy someone trying to bond by being mean, but my threshold for "things i won't make a big deal out of" vs "things you'll get your ass beat over, verbally and/or physically" is very different for when people are talking about me as compared to when they're talking about people i care about.
I was gonna comment this. If somebody called me a dog's breakfast I would laugh it off. If somebody called my girlfriend a dog's breakfast I would ask them to step outside.
Yeah, like if he had said something like “wow, she’s way out of your league!” That would’ve have been a good joke, but if you call her ugly? Especially behind her back? Yeah that’s out of line
as a brit, can confirm that those are fighting words in britain too. he's not taking the piss he's just being a dick
@@stevenc4982what I've learned is that taking the piss when talking about something/someone the person you're doing it to cares about, you make it a kinda insult to them rather than the thing/person they care about
Brennan is living breathing proof that not all kind people are pacifists. There’s a running rhetoric that being compassionate is the same as being a pushover and this man is doing the most to disprove it
"I'd rather be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war."
“You can’t truly call yourself a pacifist unless you’re capable of great violence, if you’re not capable of violence you’re not a pacifist, you’re harmless”
@@sourdrop "A harmless man is not a good man. A good man is a very dangerous man who has that under voluntary control."
God that last story... like technically that's robbery but if I was on the jury it wouldn't be. Honestly it's such a wholesome story though. The part that really gets me about it is that Brennan got implicit permission to fight, and as soon as he did he was off to the races. To me that's genuinely a sign of someone who is really respectful of others. He was defending his friend and only escalated to violence when it was invoked by the other party. Then the rest of his reasoning follows: hit the guy because you assume he's a threat; stop hitting him when it becomes obvious he's not; get the money because your friend needs it; REASON with the guy about why fighting is a bad idea which is a very kind thing to do in the Evan Kelmp sense of it; only stop chasing the guy when it's obvious it's not worth it. Calling out "COWARD" in a knightly manner after all that may be some nerd shit but it is also extremely powerful. The really devastating part of that story is how he showed the guy that he didn't actually have any real friends. That's the kind of humiliation that gives someone like that an opportunity to change. I enjoyed that story immensely.
Well said, friend. 🙂
"NOOOOooo they'll cast me on SNL!" Is single handedly the best bit of all time
Blue handle bar mustache man yells "COWARD" at fleeing and wounded would-be attacker.
What a wild sentence
I love Brennan fighting the dude then trying to loot him😂
guys im so normal about this man i promise
Hard same
Me three
Yeahhh I for sure didn't listen to the 4hr podcast
Memento mori my friend and same
Yeah yeah, totally. Same here. Fully normal, I swear.
I love Brennan just calling an absolutely random guy "COWARD!!" Like the fucking medievil king he basically is.
Yoooo I was fully ready for this to be *just* Brennan's characters in D20 being confrontational, and *nothing* could have prepared me for that last story. Wow wow wow wow wow.
God I love this man. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Off to check out that Podcast episode, 3 more hours of Brennan, here I come!!! 😃
I love how my response when I punched a bully was the opposite of and yet the same as the bully's response in the story. "What do you mean you're not punishing me?! Shouldn't I be punished?! But what about the rules! You can't let people go around punching other students!"
the last time i ever got bullied in school i turned around and hit him in the face, immediately walked off to the vice principals office, and the vp congratulated me. never in my life have i ever felt such vindication.
That's something you only learn later in life - there's only so much adults can do when a kid is constantly being a bully to others, especially when that kid is *technically* not breaking any rules. And they can't openly rejoice when some other kid finally snaps and the bully gets their comeuppance, but moments like that are crucial in a childs development - when they realize that their actions have consequences, and you're not invulnerable within the rules if you're just outright being an asshole.
Yeah for me I just know there are some times in which an asshole just needs to be humbled physically.
@@darrienjones8917 Correct, but teenage me didn't realise that. I also didn't realise I was being abused. I still had a lot to learn.
I work with kids. It's a fine line, because we obviously don't ever want kids hurting one another. But sometimes kids need to learn that bullying their peers has consequences. There have been plenty of times when a kid gets punched and my internal reaction is "yes, of course that happened, you were being terrible and so somebody stood up to you." The hard part is to talk it through with them and get them to the point where they realize that on their own.
Does my Irish heart good to hear Brennan getting possessed by the full battle rage. Like Cu Chulainn before him
The blue mustache store reminds me of the saying. There are 3 things all wise men fear a night with no moon, a storm at sea, and the anger of a kind man. Brennan has to be one of the kindest people out there I'd be terrified to see him pissed off.
doors of stone when
"if you complain i’m coming to ur house and robbing you."
Okay, you can't do that. That's a felony.
this is maybe one of my favorite comments i’ve gotten on a video so far. ty for this gem.
Only if it gets documented. 😊
I simply wasn’t prepared for how the blue handlebar bandito story was gonna go I thought I was but I simply wasn’t
staring at a cute cat while listening to Brennan's retelling of a street confrontation is somehow very fun.
"I'm not cut out for this line of work... Anyway I blugeoned him." THAT IS NOT WHAT I EXPECTED 😭😭😭
“the only thing is the time you spend with the people you love… and i don’t wanna spend time with you any more… don’t want anyone else to either, so i’m gone getcha” had me laughing so hard i had to pause😂😂😂
Brennan is really the main character of his life. Good for him and for us. Honestly, him being him makes me happy.
The moment where you realize your fist is flying through the air is usually one that I am too drunk too notice. He really was possessed by the spirit of Ireland
Brennan is real life chaotic good
I am wholeheartedly convinced that Brennan can defeat most average human beings in a street fight
god i wish he’d beat me in a street fight
@@wizardzimbim 👀
Same tho
brennans solution to a possible shiving being "don't let the perp stand back up" is actually quite good thinking XD
The shock of Brennan being a person that would hook up with people at parties
Redhead solidarity is being really nice and sincere but being 100% down to clock someone mentally or physically at the slightest confrontation
i think we might be soulmates
Oh yes.
I thought I couldn't have any more respect for Brennan Lee Mulligan. But then I heard the tale of the The Blue Handlebar Bandito. Absolute legend.
Beating the shit out of someone after they attack your friend, then attempting to rob the attacker to pay for your friend's glasses, all while wearing a blue handlebar mustache? That's the most Chaotic Good shit I've ever heard.
"We made up the rules" only reinforces this.
As a representative of the Brits, we DO NOT claim that guy in the first story. He is Excommunicado
Discovering that brennan’s one face punch was to defend jack covell, and discovering the blue handlebar bandito at the same time 👌

@@sturmklinge9642 thank you for this very important information
@@sturmklinge9642 I, too, would like to express my gratitude to this very important information you've just shared with us.
As an Irish girl who's been put in a fight or die situation at age 15
Your ancestors would be proud Brennan
Brennan crouching down and basically telling a shithead bully kid that he's gonna get his ass kicked someday is the greatest mental image of all time.
So in one night....Brennan got his face painted, hooked up with someone while his face was painted, cast dispel magic on a bad luck circle, beat up a douchebag for breaking his friends glasses, committed a felony, admitted said felony to a cop and didn't get arrested, all while working at least one shift??? Yeah he better have f'ing got a nickname lol
According to his telling, the blue moustache painted that night was a reference to a previous party when a blue moustache had been drawn on to his face and he’d hooked up with someone. That would have been an exceedingly eventful night if it had all happened!
The part where Brennan fully confesses to violently mugging a man in the most chaotic good way possible.
"Do you know what crustpunk are?" Homeless and proud of it.
Love how the cop just gave him a pro tip to avoid a felony, tho, that last story is fucking wild, i would definitely love to have a friend like Brennan.
"I mean you'll probably die soon, right?"
"Not as soon as you, buckaroo. 'Bout to pop off and kick your ass. There's no reason to let you live, buddy. It's gotta end here, cause uh, it's life. There is no winning and losing, that's made up. The only thing is the time you spend with the people you love... and I don't wanna spend any more time with you, I don't want anyone else to either, so Imma getcha"
The whole “if this guy pops up, it’s gonna end bad” is a mindset I very much carry everywhere I go. I watch people on tv and movies punch someone in defense and only do it once, letting the person who’s obviously aggressive and more experienced in fighting get up, and then they get their ass whooped cause they’ve missed the chance to actually make sure the guy stays down and has no chance of attacking again. If it comes to it, I’m flailing until the person is unconscious or dead, cause I ain’t dealing with them coming back at me. I’d only go as far as dead if they had actually attempted to physically assault me, obviously, but you get the point.
Yeah this is an actual thing as well. I've been doing karate for 3 years and most of the self defense we do seem like such overkill to a single attack being thrown at you, but the fact is most of us who take these classes, arent violent people who love fighting and constantly getting into fights. You hit that person until you are reasonably certain that person will not be getting back up and attacking you before you can run, causes chances are they are much more expierience in fighting than you are, no matter what belt rank you are, and if they get the jump on you, its gonna be really hard to get the lead back. Groin diaphragm and nose are good places to aim for as they cause the most pain/disorientation and will give you the most time to run.
You might like Enders Game if you haven't read it already
@idothisforfun3005 I second this recommendation
sth like this happened to my dad once as well. there was some minor mishap in traffic between this guy and my dad. the guy got mad and got out of the car and my dad stupidly got out of his car as well because he thought the guy just wanted to talk and my dad just wanted to apologize. but when he walked up to the guy he very quickly realised that this dude had every intention to fucking fight him. so my dad thought "i can't let this guy beat me up, i gotta get home to my wife and kids and this guy might have a knife on him." so he threw the first punch before the other guy could. at this point the guys girlfriend had gotten out of the car as well and my dad handed her his phone or whatever, so he could have his hands free. so this girl was willingly holding my dad's stuff while he was beating up her boyfriend. i don't usually approve of voilence but i laugh my ass off every time i think about this story because if you know my dad you'd never think he would beat someone up.
@@jongininikim5219 The fact that the dude's girlfriend helped your dad is so fucking funny to me
"coward!" has to be the funniest possible thing to yell out in that situation lmfao
Of course, my favorite version of Brennan is when he’s happy, healthy, hydrated and well fed, out enjoying his life somewhere with the people he loves who love him.
HOWEVER…Righteous Anger Brennan is absolutely on the favorites list
3:57 i love this story and it just reinforces that Brennan is so smart and well-spoken. i need more of his dadly wisdom in my everyday life

Brennan Lee Mulligan basically saying “thems are fightin’ words” made my day
another point about 5:50 (and btw I love all this) is that you can't just set traps for people to break the rules and not expect that to backfire. Anyone with true morals will see that you're abusing the system and make exceptions for you. Rules are guidelines, not physics.
Unless you're the school system where bully victims get punished WITH the bully
Brennan is the only man i can hear say "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to almost punch you to death and take your money" and believe it
I love the line "You have generations of strength in your bones!"
"People think I'm a nice guy, but I just _conform to the gEnRE!"_
Brennan: “I’m a very peaceful guy”

Brennan is the ideal human. The embodiment of chaotic good. *heavy* emphasis on the chaotic 😂❤
Brennan living up to that "anger of a gentle man" quote.
Brennan Lee Mulligan for President
I'm ashamed to say I've been the kind of kid Brennan described getting punched in the face at Camp, and honestly I kind of wish I'd had a Brennan back then to give me *exactly* that talking to. Kids who use their words and insight into other kids insecurities to bully them, knowing that if the other kid retaliates physically they 'win', need to learn sooner than I did that shit doesn't fly in the adult world.
Well, if it makes you feel better Brennan did a video with UROK about how he had reacted to bullying by lashing out at others and becoming one. Sometimes you learn and grow enough as a person to help people not make the same mistakes.
As a person who has a carefully held back ball rage deep inside that likes to pop out in emergencies that last story is honestly validating
not to be parasocial but he’s literally the guy ever
I like how Brennan's last story proves the point I would bring up in relation to his first story.
People have wildly different reactions to an action when it is done to them or to another person. Brennan was willing to let being shoulder checked go, but the moment the guy hurt his friend man went berserk. I know some guys who would hesitate to swing at you if you actually hit them, but if you said a single wrong word about their dog they would break you like Bane broke Batman.
Truly a bad luck spot for everyone involved.
I've never read someone's wikipedia page and had a smile of genuine delight when I found out Brennan found love and got married this year. For someone I've never met have I felt so much love for a person.
Sorry but Brennan's story about beating the shit out of a guy for breaking his friend's glasses and then demanding money for them, all while wearing the blue mustache, never fails to make me a little gay. Like if I were present I would've fallen in love with the man on the spot, it's unmatched levels of good vibes.
Brennan "about that action" Mulligan
Ohoho man. the part with the guy calling over his friends for a fight and they just keep walking is awesome. they've realized this guy is taking things WAY too far.
Brennan Lee Mulligan as a camp counselor gives me big Jawbone vibes.
I love that brennan fully robbed a guy and that's in his lore
"I don't want to spend any more time with you and I don't want anyone else to either, so imma getcha" is amazing and somehow terrifying.
“You are gonna pay for my friends glasses, or beatings will continue.”
I thought Brennan was just about to mug this guy for a sec until he said “you are gonna pay for my friends glasses”
Even most punks hate crustpunks. They are annoying more than anything but the whole "I love to fight" crap is so recognisable.
Caduceus pfp :0???
@@maxfitz8577 Yes! Love my silly cemetery boy
Brennan is the only American who gets to pull that
"my irish ancestry compelled me" crap.
Because he is a precious almond of a human being, and although his first reaction was violence.
his second was over the top melodrama.
A true son of ireland right there.
His first reaction wasn't violence though, he was kind, twice. The dude made it clear there was going to be a fight/problem, Brennan isn't a fighter so he knew if he didn't throw the first punch he probably wasn't going to get up. Add on the fact the dude likely would mug you, stab you, or shoot you, and he beat him while he was down to ensure his safety.
He didn't immediately react with violence, but as soon as he realized talking wasn't going to work his body kicked into action and started punchin
Precious almond 😂😂😂😂😂
I now need someone to animate Brennan’s Blue Bandido story
