1
00:00:10,510 --> 00:00:12,377
We are good to go!

2
00:00:12,377 --> 00:00:14,570
First Vlog of the year and...I...

3
00:00:14,570 --> 00:00:16,210
that's what I was supposed to do today.

4
00:00:16,210 --> 00:00:17,617
I was supposed to cut my hair.

5
00:00:17,617 --> 00:00:19,119
It looks so poofy.

6
00:00:19,119 --> 00:00:21,153
So this video was supposed to be 
the first video of the year.

7
00:00:21,153 --> 00:00:23,319
But as most of you know, I fell about 
three weeks behind schedule

8
00:00:23,319 --> 00:00:25,447
because the last video 
took over a month to make.

9
00:00:28,237 --> 00:00:31,368
Never, ever doing that many effects 
in a video ever again.

10
00:00:31,368 --> 00:00:32,109
I'll probably do another one.

11
00:00:32,109 --> 00:00:34,294
But I wanted to start off the year 
with something a little more personal.

12
00:00:34,294 --> 00:00:37,065
And today I'm going to be talking about
something that I've never said publicly

13
00:00:37,065 --> 00:00:40,645
and it's something no one other than
my closest friends and some family know.

14
00:00:40,645 --> 00:00:43,417
But first, let me start off by saying
my New Year's resolution is pretty much

15
00:00:43,417 --> 00:00:46,148
your typical New Year's resolution.
Exercise more and dieting better.

16
00:00:46,148 --> 00:00:48,849
Be more mature. The main one was I was
gonna keep on making YouTube videos

17
00:00:48,849 --> 00:00:51,894
without having to sacrifice my health.
Most of the time, it really goes into writing.

18
00:00:51,894 --> 00:00:54,953
I write them on my laptop, my phone,
but if I wanna put them on paper,

19
00:00:54,953 --> 00:00:57,159
that would probably look something 
like this [snap]

20
00:00:58,481 --> 00:01:01,853
Yeah.. No.. I didn't sell too many shabus 
back in '09.

21
00:01:01,853 --> 00:01:03,865
I don't even make, like, 
99% out of these ideas

22
00:01:03,865 --> 00:01:05,255
because most of them make absolutely no sense.

23
00:01:05,255 --> 00:01:07,765
Out of all these there's just probably
a few worth filming.

24
00:01:07,765 --> 00:01:12,215
Dragon Ball Z Fight in Real Life.
What a great idea - it doesn't sound

25
00:01:12,215 --> 00:01:15,170
overly time-consuming, difficult, 
and no amount of stress to do at all.

26
00:01:15,170 --> 00:01:19,805
[aaaah] dragon [beeping] dragon [beeping]

27
00:01:19,805 --> 00:01:22,614
I don't want to pick that all up so 
I'm not going to push it

28
00:01:22,614 --> 00:01:26,731
but you know how mad I am. [exhales]
anyway, as fun as it is

29
00:01:26,731 --> 00:01:29,812
behind the scenes and what-not, I was just
trying to keep up with everything last year.

30
00:01:29,812 --> 00:01:33,680
Skipping meals, losing sleep, feeling
exhausted all day.. and I ended up

31
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,047
developing what was a minor addiction.


32
00:01:36,591 --> 00:01:38,712
I don't know where these feelings come from

33
00:01:38,712 --> 00:01:42,413
or what they mean. But there's just something
about crystal meth

34
00:01:42,413 --> 00:01:46,413
finding the smallest animal you could find
and just strangling them.

35
00:01:46,413 --> 00:01:48,985
It just gives you that rush, you know?

36
00:01:48,985 --> 00:01:51,557
(offscreen) Yeah, I've been doing a lot better this week.

37
00:01:51,557 --> 00:01:53,210
Thank you, guys.
[clapping]

38
00:01:53,210 --> 00:01:57,122
(offscreen) Very Good! Okay, let's move on to Ryan.

39
00:01:57,122 --> 00:02:02,465
Hello, everyone. My name is Ryan and..
(others say, "Hi Ryan")

40
00:02:02,465 --> 00:02:06,846
Hi. And over the years, I've kind of
developed an addiction...

41
00:02:08,749 --> 00:02:10,593
to energy drinks and caffeine.

42
00:02:10,593 --> 00:02:18,348
[dissing sounds] Are you freaking kidding me, man?
I do meth and I strangle animals for fun.

43
00:02:18,348 --> 00:02:22,025
See Wes over there?
He hooks up an IV when he sleeps so

44
00:02:22,025 --> 00:02:24,663
he could drink alcohol 24/7.
Ted shoots up heroin

45
00:02:24,663 --> 00:02:26,529
just because he loves the 
movie Twilight that much.

46
00:02:26,529 --> 00:02:28,909
You're like my own personal brand of Bella.

47
00:02:28,909 --> 00:02:31,745
Phil? I don't even wanna tell you what he's on.

48
00:02:31,745 --> 00:02:32,794
What is he on?

49
00:02:32,794 --> 00:02:34,102
He's still on MySpace.

50
00:02:34,102 --> 00:02:36,207
Tom! Where'd you go?

51
00:02:36,207 --> 00:02:40,001
See? You see these? These are real problems.
Why don't you come back when

52
00:02:40,001 --> 00:02:42,023
you have a real addiction?

53
00:02:42,023 --> 00:02:43,702
No, don't strangle him!

54
00:02:43,702 --> 00:02:45,877
What? No, I wasn't going to do that. 
He's my dog.

55
00:02:45,877 --> 00:02:48,372
He's only here because he's addicted to 
making immature people laugh.

56
00:02:48,372 --> 00:02:49,060
What?

57
00:02:49,060 --> 00:02:50,399
[fart sound]
[laughter]

58
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,798
I don't know why I kept going with that.
That was supposed to be a quick cut-away.


59
00:02:53,798 --> 00:02:57,284
So anyway, it's not like I'm addicted to
anything crazy like crack or crystal meth.

60
00:02:57,284 --> 00:02:59,349
Well, I did just start getting into
Breaking Bad.

61
00:02:59,349 --> 00:03:01,079
Crystal meth does look kind of interesting

62
00:03:01,079 --> 00:03:03,550
That's not a good joke.
Do not ever do meth, kids.

63
00:03:03,550 --> 00:03:05,956
(Man) Meth. Not even once.

64
00:03:05,956 --> 00:03:08,012
Yes, that long cut-away was
supposed to be a joke.

65
00:03:08,012 --> 00:03:11,462
Caffeine addiction is a real problem.
It's a real thing, and so was MySpace.

66
00:03:11,462 --> 00:03:14,640
I'm a real drug addict.
Yes, caffeine is legal, but it's real.

67
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:16,399
I think. Is it a drug?

68
00:03:16,399 --> 00:03:20,000
See, I wouldn't know because I didn't
graduate college... because of caffeine.

69
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,071
(Man) Caffeine. Not even once.

70
00:03:22,071 --> 00:03:23,936
Okay, I didn't graduate because I wanted
to make YouTube videos.

71
00:03:23,936 --> 00:03:26,073
But making YT videos led to caffeine.

72
00:03:26,073 --> 00:03:29,056
You could say that YT is a gateway drug.

73
00:03:29,222 --> 00:03:31,298
YT is a gateway drug.

74
00:03:31,495 --> 00:03:34,184
(Man) YouTube. The gateway
to caffeinated meth.

75
00:03:34,184 --> 00:03:36,553
Seriously, the caffeine thing got
pretty bad last year.

76
00:03:36,553 --> 00:03:38,973
I was literally drinking about 4 Red Bulls
every single day.

77
00:03:38,973 --> 00:03:41,111
When we were filming the 
Candy Crush video last year

78
00:03:41,111 --> 00:03:44,066
If you watch that video again and replace
Candy Crush with caffeine,

79
00:03:44,066 --> 00:03:46,217
That's what I was talking about.

80
00:03:46,217 --> 00:03:50,503
Symbolism. I don't even know if that is
the right term... because I didn't

81
00:03:50,503 --> 00:03:52,983
graduate college because of caffeine!

82
00:03:52,983 --> 00:03:58,551
During that shoot, I was so exhausted,
to finish, I drank 9 Red Bulls in one day.

83
00:03:58,551 --> 00:04:02,817
That night, I crashed from Red Bulls,
but I woke up later trembling

84
00:04:02,817 --> 00:04:07,752
and my chest was in pain, so I knew
I had to stop drinking so much caffeine.

85
00:04:08,842 --> 00:04:12,334
I told myself, after the last video
of the year, which was that one

86
00:04:12,334 --> 00:04:13,156
(Screams)

87
00:04:13,156 --> 00:04:16,618
I just needed a break from YT so I could
stop drinking energy drinks for a month

88
00:04:16,618 --> 00:04:19,915
because I was worried I was getting
addicted to energy drinks.

89
00:04:19,915 --> 00:04:21,921
I didn't think that was possible.

90
00:04:21,921 --> 00:04:23,578
So why am I telling you all of this?

91
00:04:23,578 --> 00:04:27,048
I know a lot of you are younger than me.
When I was younger, in HS/college,

92
00:04:27,048 --> 00:04:29,613
I was surrounded by people that did drugs,
but I never did.

93
00:04:29,613 --> 00:04:33,800
I thought addiction could never happen
to me, only weak-minded druggies.

94
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,688
What I mean is, for all of you innocent
kids, you will be addicted to drugs.

95
00:04:38,688 --> 00:04:42,125
Just kidding, sorry. This is serious.
Addiction can happen to anyone.

96
00:04:42,125 --> 00:04:43,532
Be careful.

97
00:04:43,532 --> 00:04:49,001
I honestly still drink energy drinks,
but not 4 a day anymore. 1 or 2.

98
00:04:50,250 --> 00:04:51,571
It's all about the babies.

99
00:04:51,571 --> 00:04:54,457
People always make New Year's Resolutions
and never follow through because,

100
00:04:54,457 --> 00:04:57,781
once they screw up, I think they say,
"screw it," and just let it go.

101
00:04:57,791 --> 00:05:00,186
But it's all about the baby steps.
This baby is moon walking.

102
00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:02,991
If your New Year's resolution was to be
nicer to people because you were

103
00:05:02,991 --> 00:05:07,097
a dick last year, try to be a dick every
other day. Then once a week.

104
00:05:07,097 --> 00:05:10,438
Then once a month.
Then you relapse into an all-dick week...

105
00:05:10,698 --> 00:05:12,137
That came out wrong...

106
00:05:12,137 --> 00:05:13,296
So did that...

107
00:05:13,296 --> 00:05:15,016
Never give up. Take baby steps.

108
00:05:15,016 --> 00:05:19,171
Nobody likes a dick and nobody wants an
addiction, especially if it's being a dick

109
00:05:19,171 --> 00:05:22,502
That would make sense because nobody likes
either of those things.

110
00:05:22,502 --> 00:05:24,753
That's why the word 'dick'
is in addiction (sounds similar)

111
00:05:24,753 --> 00:05:26,946
But it doesn't have to be you.
You can beat that addiction.

112
00:05:26,946 --> 00:05:28,549
You can beat that dick.

113
00:05:28,549 --> 00:05:31,150
My other resolution was to be more mature.

114
00:05:31,150 --> 00:05:31,876
It's clearly working.

115
00:05:31,876 --> 00:05:32,628
(fart)

116
00:05:32,628 --> 00:05:35,243
Anyway, I made this video as an update to
the start of the year.

117
00:05:35,243 --> 00:05:37,694
I know a lot of you don't care about the
personal life stuff.

118
00:05:37,694 --> 00:05:40,460
You probably want me to drink more energy
drinks to keep making more videos.

119
00:05:40,460 --> 00:05:42,339
Thanks so much for watching.

120
00:05:42,339 --> 00:05:45,358
I know I had a slow start this year, but
I am back in it and ready to make 2014

121
00:05:45,358 --> 00:05:47,894
not just good...
not just great...

122
00:05:47,894 --> 00:05:49,984
but pretty average!

123
00:05:50,364 --> 00:05:52,784
It's gonna be another...
another cool year.

124
00:05:52,924 --> 00:05:54,206
It's going to be weird.

125
00:05:54,206 --> 00:05:57,544
If you thought this video wasn't weird,
you've probably watched me for a while

126
00:05:57,544 --> 00:05:58,886
You're probably also weird now.

127
00:05:58,886 --> 00:06:01,324
It's a proven fact I make people weirder.
Sorry.

128
00:06:01,324 --> 00:06:03,815
So for all of the #lamps out there,
I can't wait to spend the year with you.

129
00:06:03,815 --> 00:06:06,497
For all the new viewers out there,
all of the cool kids are doing it...

130
00:06:06,497 --> 00:06:07,369
just do it!

131
00:06:07,369 --> 00:06:08,728
(whispers) Subscribe!

132
00:06:09,023 --> 00:06:12,807
(Chair creaking)

133
00:06:13,617 --> 00:06:14,676
(Higa) oh, dude.. oh!

134
00:06:14,833 --> 00:06:17,789
(Man) Subscribing to Nigahiga?
Not even once.

135
00:06:18,659 --> 00:06:22,529
Ahhh... I hit the edge of my bed.
See you, guys!

136
00:06:23,289 --> 00:06:26,466
(Higa) Hey, thanks so much for watching.
If you want to see that video that took

137
00:06:26,466 --> 00:06:28,996
(Higa) way too long to make,
click the left image.

138
00:06:28,996 --> 00:06:31,812
(Higa) If you want to see the Candy Crush video,
click the right image.

139
00:06:31,812 --> 00:06:35,776
(Higa) If you can't tell left from right, put
your hands up and make an L.

140
00:06:35,776 --> 00:06:39,037
(Higa) Now put your right hand down.
There you go.
