A Christmas Carol: Brain Games - PART 3 - Game Grumps

[@Jacquerel27]

"Because it's fuckin easy." Wow, sick Dan is a savage Arin critic.

[@PositronPlays]

Oh no, this stacking puzzle is going to be painful isn't it. Edit: Dan is our hero

[@madisonjones8794]

Dan is the god of common sense in game grumps

[@yarrgoronohobolonodo]

Went to the comments to groan about how painful the stacking puzzle would be, glad to find out that Dan saves the day

[@lestat106]

Positron yeah dude Danny saved me an actual headache

[@shadowdalfi]

yup, so painful I skipped it.

[@jessbellis9510]

Thank the Jewish god for Dan. I was stunned at how shit Arin is at that stacking puzzle.

[@aidanboyle7374]

I was getting real frustrated watching Arin do the stacking puzzle but Dan's complete deadpan "'cause it's easy" totally vindicated me

[@eddy07932]

Aidan Boyle It's the tower of Hanoi puzzle but advance. I wouldn't be surprised if I got stuck on it too

[@KelseyDrummer]

Same!

[@isabellavendel8838]

Y'know.. For a guy who hates christmas it's incredible how christmas-decorated that house is

[@NightSparrow107]

Dan on meds is my favorite Dan. He's so salty at Arin's puzzle solving 😂. It's like how we watch these videos 😂.

[@JM-yp8du]

When Dan says "Put it in the sun, dude," you can tell he got to the point EVERYONE was at since Arin started these stupid puzzles XD

[@themagicalcat6828]

I just realized. Watching this now in late march years after this video game out, that the doll house puzzle is charactersfrom the OTHER chrismas themed find and seek game they played, the Nutcracker Story one. At first I just noticed the cat was the same grappling hook cat, but then with the nutcracker attacking the rat king and princess Mary i was like “oh shit this is familiar”

[@kerriganissler6840]

Dan sounds so fed up with this already 😂

[@DenderFriend]

Kerrigan Issler well it is a pretty boring game

[@hi.2233]

I was about to like this, but then I saw that it had 69 likes, so I won't.

[@jasontodd4461]

Kerrigan Issler fuck you and doki doki

[@TheSeppomania]

Ohhh god, I got so frustrated watching Arin solving the stacking puzzle!!!!!

[@weirdnwild91]

You got that right.

[@jorgeamadosoriaramirez8953]

Arin messing with the Hanoi towers puzzle is hilarious. And fucking nerve wracking.

[@fowof]

I stopped the video feeling he’d be doing it for the rest of the video. Please let me know if I was right. Or don’t either aye fine

[@Oh_Nanners]

you can skip to about 10 minutes

[@corumhayes8178]

I'm sitting here telling the screen out loud "Bigger pieces can't go on smaller pieces" over and over and getting more frustrated with each utterance. Thank God Dan is there!

[@notaboxofjuice]

Low key want them to finish this game

[@Ole_Rasmussen]

Low Key, whoever that is, can sit down and wait like a good boy.

[@TotoriUni]

Lowkey, I think you meant HIGHKEY

[@naranciaisbestboi125]

Ole Rasmussen Loki the god of mischief, maybe?

[@mobius273]

Yeah this seems so much weirder than the nutcracker one and that's quite an accomplishment

[@WilfredCthulu]

Oh shit you can't kill the Jingle Grumps.

[@needlessnoise]

It got pushed back because of DDLC

[@dinolandra]

needlessnoise let's be clear, it got pushed back because of crazy impatient people

[@guts2657]

No one can kill my holiday fucking cheer

[@hirschy1103]

gluegunassault2010 I mean if that's the shit you're into... a bit too kinky for me but glad you found your niche

[@lapotato9140]

gluegunassault2010 it's not as bad as people asking for them to show actual suicide over where there would supposedly be suicide because they're impatient.

[@lenakennel7332]

“How are you doing this?” “Because it’s fuckin’ easy.”

[@PositronPlays]

There is something oddly engaging about watching them play these games

[@lasarousi]

Positron the word your looking for is flabbergasted, because I'm flabbergasted how many basic skills they lack, like common sense.

[@DeathnoteBB]

Which is why it sucks they never finish any of them T-T

[@Scooterthegreat51]

Ode to dan

[@jonpower9728]

Danny on his sickest day>Arin on his healthiest day

[@ghostxfactory17]

This is hilarious out of context.

[@BlueEnergyCat]

Hey, just a reminder guys. Because the grumps aired the rest of the doki doki videos from their recording session during Jingle grumps, we'll have some jingle grumps episodes leftover for the next few days. That said, it won't ONLY be jingle grumps.

[@TheMedicatedArtist]

If that's the case, then I would have prefered the uninterupted Jingle Grumps schedule.

[@jacobesnard]

Radioactive Panda thank the Grump fans who demanded Dan's reaction to Sayori's death

[@lasarousi]

Jacob Esnard cunts couldn't wait 4 days Jesus. I'm more upset GG is ruled by the vocal minority. That in my book is more of a sellout than accepting ads from Wendy's.

[@viljamtheninja]

Are you friends with energy falcon?

[@thefatheroflies7921]

Why do any of you care? Actually curious. Why do three days matter one way or the other? Jingle Grumps episodes go a few days past normal. Or we wait a few days to watch DDLC. Whatever. What's the controversy?

[@milkinobama]

How the hell can metal bird without any feathers fly in the first place? Better question, why am I questioning a game like this in the first place?

[@bewilderbeastie8899]

Skarmory is a metal bird and it can totally fly

[@milkinobama]

Bewilderbeastie Oh damn, you right.

[@elsie8757]

Scrooge's good shoulder-angel thingy possessed it, that's why

[@MrSkysenGames]

Metal birds soaring the skies? Preposterous indeed... *~a plane flies overhead~* Everyone knows that's impossible. Metal is too heavy to fly!

[@amberwingtundrawing776]

Planes are different because of the propellors and jet fuel

[@dylancraiggamesout4301]

Everyone calm the hell down about Doki Doki they gave us a deal in their update video saying that we get 3 doki doki episodes early but Jingle Grumps will continue for a couple more days

[@tristenj1992]

You can tell who actually watched the update video and who didn't. The ones who didn't are the ones asking for Doki Doki. This is the trade-off: Jingle Grumps will run a little past Christmas. But Doki Doki will be back once it's over.

[@tristenj1992]

warped portals At. The. Time. Of. Posting. Everyone. Was.

[@1FbPT2]

i'm complaining

[@MrSmilingDeath]

I didn't watch it and it doesn't bug me, but I also just don't give 2 fucks about that game.

[@mjc0961]

Came to the comments to see the tears of people complaining that this isn't Doki Doki Literature Club, even after Arin made a special video telling everyone that they'd upload the last three episode of that early but then Jingle Grumps would run 3 days past Christmas so we can finish Jingle Grumps. I'd say I wasn't disappointed because the tears exist, but upon further reflection I am indeed disappointed in people's behavior. You already threw a tantrum and got what you wanted last week. Throwing another tantrum again because this still isn't what you wanted this week is just despicable. Also, unless the Grumps are feeling very nice and record some new episodes and shift the schedule around more, it's going to be even worse once Jingle Grumps finishes and then we start getting those "Arin only because Dan is sick" episodes that were mentioned at the start of Jingle Grumps.

[@SwiggyRamirez]

Agreed. I mean I am definitely interested in them completing Doki, but Arin was very transparent with his announcement video and they probably haven't even had to time to record/edit the new episodes. Chill, people.

[@lapotato9140]

i think back to the comment i made on the update video saying that i was sure they would not calm down even if the grumps did listen, and i predicted that by next christmas the grumps will be literally held at gunpoint to post 30 minute episodes every half hour of every day until they collapse from sleep deprivation and die. i shudder to think just how much of those predictions were accurate, now that the first one was.

[@call_me_mad1236]

In a different episode they explained that 1. Doki Doki will be continued soon 2. Jingle Grumps is late because everyone wanted Doki Doki, so they gave us all the episodes they stocked up of Doki Doki thus causing jingle grumps to be a a few days late

[@XsuperneonX]

Arin: I got the screwdriver. Me: Don't you mean Scrooge-iver?

[@elish80]

HA!

[@DenderFriend]

Didn't they say that jingle grumps was being extended because of them putting the Doki Doki episodes up early?

[@ToolFan-co4bc]

Yes

[@Bl4ckD0g]

Batman silly Batman, you act like people would actually listen to anything that's said.

[@DenderFriend]

Ricky the Demon Machine thanks Ricky

[@Prasmus]

I wish the Doki Doki fans were actually patient with the videos, instead of getting mad because Jingle Grumps happens before Sayori's death. They would have uploaded the last three episodes they had after Jingle Grumps ended, but now, they have to finish Jingle Grumps after Christmas. To make things worse, some fans are a bit peeved because a) they want more Doki Doki, despite Arin already saying they only had three episodes left from their session in their update video, and b) Jingle Grumps is still going on. I wish people could just wait.

[@lapotato9140]

why would they wait though? throwing a tantrum worked the first time, so naturally if they just do it again, the last two episodes of jingle grumps will get replaced by DDLC again. it worked once, so of course it will work twice. and a third time, and a fourth, and a fifth... right?

[@myboi8517]

I can understand why people would beg for the episode with Sayori. They took over 20 episodes to get there and everyone was waiting for it, but I don't know why anyone would still be asking for it, even after the three episodes they had recorded. Those people are just a bit impatient. I do enjoy their doki doki series and I'd like to see more but I am satisfied with the current episodes and finally seeing Dan's reaction. I am enjoying jingle grumps as well and I can wait until the next doki doki. These people who are still asking should wait, but people should stop telling them to shut up. I've seen at least 10 comments telling people to shut the fuck up and then replying to people who've asked to shut the fuck up. I'm glad you're not directly telling people to shut the fuck up. Idk if you're a fan of doki doki or not but if so I'm sure you can understand why people were mad that they cut off doki doki right before her death. After her death though, I can't see why people are still upset, the big reveal already happened.

[@corumhayes8178]

It's funny that Arin always thinks of himself as a smarty pants but a half powered Dan is 5 steps ahead of him in these logic puzzles.

[@lapotato9140]

arin doesn't think of himself as that at all, if you truly think that's the case you need to reevaluate your life.

[@corumhayes8178]

I need to reevaluate my life? lol That's hilarious!

[@Joel2Million]

wee that cat in the last puzzle is a reoccurring character, in the nut cracker one it's insane

[@literallywhy6162]

“The sun! I’ve done it!” The childlike joy,,,

[@ActionYakPolice]

I was about to complain but then I remembered that nobody is making me watch this

[@finn7819]

Before you complain about Doki Doki, the original plan was to have the series go on hiatus for Jingle Grumps before releasing the final three episodes recorded in the first session. Due to the demand however Arin put a video up saying that they would release the Doki Doki episodes during the Christmas week. Those were episodes 20-22. As a result of this, there are still a few jingle grump episodes left to air. We will get more Doki Doki when they record and have another session edited. At this current moment there are no more episodes left to go up

[@SI-FI_creations]

I'm glad I get to see more Jingle Grumps. DDLC doesn't interest me as a game. I'd much rather watch random Christmas things like this all year long.

[@Rileysaura1]

It's not so much more Jingle Grumps so much as it is delayed Jingle Grumps on account of entitled children who couldn't wait 4 days, or a week tops.

[@dogureqs]

Danny I can't thank you enough for helping Arin with that stacking puzzle. You saved the sanity of so many lovelies today. I still love you though, Arin, don't worry =3

[@EsperTortuga]

little did danny and arin know they would encounter the nutcracker, mary, fred, and the rat king once again 2 years later

[@DUDETHATLIKESMEMES]

Yesss more jingle grumps

[@Ontarianmm]

Oh thank you Dan, we needed someone with brain for this.

[@vizthex]

"cause it's fuckin' easy" damn dan, straight savage today.

[@josh.0220]

About 364 days too early, guys

[@chelischanging]

It's only the second day of Christmas fam

[@alecw2525]

Some people wanted doki doki and that's why it is messed up. And they still complain

[@RenaDeles]

Alec the awesome one it's almost like there's multiple people all with different desires.

[@alecw2525]

RenaDeles very true and that's why creators should do what makes them happy when making videos

[@lapotato9140]

see? what did i fucking say. the people demanding DDLC are now upset that they aren't getting it NOW either, even though this is the result of the fact that they wanted the other three episodes early. the fact that GG left off at the most suspenseful moment DID NOT make a difference like many people assured me it would. they will never be satisfied, therefore listening to their requests is a fools errand, the only way to make them learn is to force them to deal with it.

[@joekillick6368]

Jesus christ everyone shut up about Doki Doki for sec. Ever heard of their Pokemon Fire Red play through? We waited a year for them to start playing that shit again when they said they where "Leveling up" Give them a god damn secoboi *Thanks.*

[@rusty962710]

Pokemon isn't really interesting as a game though.

[@DrunkenEros]

rusty1027 same could be said for Doki Doki

[@joekillick6368]

It's not an interesting game, but what they talked about and joked about was probably why it was so appealing.

[@mtoad]

But the Pokemon playthrough sucked, and the Doki one is pretty good.

[@DrunkenEros]

mtoad that's just your opinion though. The majority liked Pokemon, just as the now majority like DDLC

[@everest2268]

I just realized that the stacking game graphics are the same ones used in the nutcracker game

[@ResidentTarantino]

More Emily's Delicious Christmas too! We gotta finish this! Gotta see how they develop each character arch!

[@jesusgodson3009]

Twinkle diddy doooo

[@awebtoonreader4979]

3:47 lol it's the cat, nutcracker, doll, and rat king from the nutcracker story version of this game that they just played.

[@jonasferreira4929]

When I saw it was a Tower of Hanoi puzzle I thought "ok, there goes this playthrough", props to Danny though!

[@munumun]

i think they post christmess episodes because of the doki doki shuffle, so they will post 2 more i guess

[@mattmanguy]

ARIN: "You're all sick, how are you doing this?" :/ DAN: "Cuz it's f***in' easy." :P

[@CrimsonFox36]

Arin: How'd you figure that out? Dan: Cuz it's easy *Air Horns*

[@assamurai]

[ARIN MOUTH NOISES INTENSIFY]

[@Bend818]

Butternut squash? YES PLEASE!!!

[@Rroleplayers]

I love watching them play these kind of games, because 1) they're typically always challenged in some way by them, and 2) they always think they're completely ridiculous. lol

[@TheChellybean85]

"Put that piece in the sun dude"......."Don't fucking judge me!" LMAO

[@VladLogimane]

8:30 Arin: "Youre all sick and, how are you doing this?" Dan:"Because its fucking easy." THANK YOU DAN!

[@astrowolvez]

It's weird how much of that nutcracker game is in this. Even the weird cat!

[@theinternetspacepirate3235]

this was one of the most painful things ive had to watch this entire year

[@Daymusik]

@4:00 I love Towers of Hanoi puzzles! I would have thought Arin would have been good at these for some reason, but I guess not. If anyone else is lost, rules for Towers of Hanoi puzzles pretty much is you can't stack a bigger piece on top of a smaller piece. In usual cases of the game, there aren't similar-sized pieces so that's a this game rule. There's also usually only one stack needing to be moved and the goal is to move all of the pieces from the far left peg to the far right peg. It's a puzzle, so...it's supposed to be fun and difficult.

[@burkli9]

This is so riveting. I can feel it in *_MA BONE_*

[@BetaNights]

lmao these weird Christmas games are too funny... Thanks for the episode, Grumps!

[@sketchygalore519]

Danny should know that the spirit of the season is pleasin'.

[@filmfangirls9163]

Oh wow the stack puzzle is the Nutcracker game they played this year!! Cool.

[@drekon6939]

Agony: the feeling I got watching Arin struggle at the puzzle and positively screaming at him how to do it before i realized, "oh yeah he can't hear me" and having a neighbor check on me to make sure im not killing someone.

[@DeathnoteBB]

"You're all sick how are you doing this?" "Cause it's fucking easy." Lmao I love Dan. Good on Arin for listening to Dan, even though he kept confusing left for right, he never got mad and claimed Dan was wrong.

[@Intrepimid]

Oh God I'm getting PTSD flashbacks of Dr.Quandary

[@Nermishish]

Arin has the memory of a goldfish

[@Leatherbubba]

13:14 That's assault, brotha.

[@Pharphuf7nik]

As someone who has been like fully immersed in puzzles his whole life and has studied computer science and a bit of algorithms it's weird how few people know about the Towers of Hanoi.

[@awebtoonreader4979]

Dan: Next time on Game Grumps we'll complete this puzzle Arin: *I'm about to do what's called a pro gamer move*

[@JessInThe999]

I like how dan isnt sugarcoating how easy it is lol

[@allik4599]

I love this, please keep playing

[@gargoyles9999]

Clearly we need to hook up Scrooge and the Grandma from the item finder game from last year

[@UncleSmithers]

that would be a true christmas miracle

[@the3libird_bro699]

Tis the day after Christmas, and game grumps are still playing Christmas games.

[@Rileysaura1]

Twas the week before Christmas, and all through the web, hundreds of entitled assholes bitched that DDLC got cut off at an interesting point or something. They didst forget that Jingle Grumps comes the same time ev'ry year. Arin made a video. It's on the channel. Watch it. But since people apparently won't click on a video that doesn't have the words 'Doki Doki Literature Club' on it, let me break it down: They released their last three recorded episodes from the last session early to satisfy the WILDLY unnecessary flood of comments, and as a result, some episodes of Jingle Grumps got pushed back. The DDLC mob made this bed. Now they have to sleep in it.

[@Antonim54]

It's games like this that make me really think about our purpose in life.

[@mandyglattli2201]

Watching Arin try to do that puzzle literally made me nauseated

[@KoffingOnion]

Love how Arin tried to put the quarter sun into the wrong shape five times in a row, without realizing his error. This is the shit that gives me life-force,

[@takemetoyonk]

I love how the occasional non-consensual mystery-seep-touching joke comes up with arin now (sleep jo, kiss)

[@controlfreak110]

I used to hate these games, but now I have a newfound respect for them.

[@XsuperneonX]

I guess he's running Arins. Good Splooge is running Ar-chins.

[@jessicamacaulay7462]

Arin: "*Sarcastic* Ok, that was obvious." Well... yeah, it kinda was, if you'd actually read that it says "I could fly up there and get that if I had wings" when you click on the tree 😂

[@Red1derer]

The Nutcracker is from the Nutcracker game they played this year! It's all part of a Christmas universe!

[@pedrostormrage]

3:36 Fun hunch: that puzzle seems to be inspired by the "Tower of Hanoi" puzzle

[@iamtheslumlordmusic6767]

I barely comment on grumps videos but GOOD LORD i cant bear to watch the puzzle, i'll come back tomorrow

[@ylvr69]

The best part about watching youtubers play games... is that it makes you feel like less of an idiot.
