A HFY Story : Planet Dirt | 2261 ~Deathworld, War, Terran and Humans

If you are an Author and would like me to narrate your stuff , Send me a message on Reddit (u/Agrosquerril) with permission and I will add you to the pool of authors I pull stories from. (no Guarantees )

[@user-iw6bu4iq4r]

I believe the writers of these stories are purposely making more and more absurd Xeno names just to make your life, Mr. Agro more and more difficult as you attempt to pronounce them.

[@ICountFrom0]

The visible pause before that one got me.

[@strategygalactic]

Sure.

[@taitano12]

​@@ICountFrom0Agro looked like 🤨"What the h-... Yup, that's a username alright."🙄

[@artyd42]

Never enter into debate with a professor who is practiced at insults. They will drag you down below your level of comfortable stupidity and point out all of it.

[@BrazenBard]

Hm, isn't John Cleese an honorary doctor of psychology, or something like that? I do believe he is, or has been, lecturing at at least one university? Sic him on the xenos. :D

[@Heegaherger]

The glory of studying rhetoric.

[@anathardayaldar]

What does it take to be an "honorary" doctor of psychology?

[@BrazenBard]

@@anathardayaldar As I understand it, usually it's a recognition for lifelong work in one field or another related to the doctorate, but without the actual academic background - an honorary doctorate in a medical field won't get you a job in a hospital, but it can get you in as a guest lecturer, that sort of thing. Assuming, of course, that I've understood it correctly.

[@Heegaherger]

"Swim off some blubber" That got a good chuckle out of me. I've known a Matthew who hated being call "Matt" for that very same reason.

[@mattbrown5511]

I am the exception to that rule. My birth is Matt, not Mathew (or any derivation of it). I despise being called Mathew.

[@Heegaherger]

@@mattbrown5511 Fair enough and respect. o7

[@scott644]

I am personally acquainted with multiple iterations of that good doctor. He represents us well. Enjoyed the reading.

[@michaeltauscher2187]

Happy Thanksgiving to all my People Celebrating it. And thank you to our fantastic Narrator for continuing to provide great entertainment.

[@SergeyWaytov]

Well, thats was some immensely FUN dunking onto Troll Panel here, I've been snickering most of the video!)

[@Shadow.Dragon]

Great story; Excellent narration! I've always been fascinated by the origin of words and the shifting of their meaning over time. It will be even more interesting, if there really are aliens. 🖖

[@Josh-iv2bw]

You should look into the history of french. There are reasons why its a nightmare spelling wise lol

[@merlinathrawes746]

Planet Dirt, planet Water, planet Place. What's a poor sapient to do?

[@RoseKindred]

It is always amusing to me when I catch the misinterpretations by the other species from the human dialect. Similar to how certain words when translated from English to, say, French, to German, then back to English the word has shifted into something else.

[@ReZerO100]

back when i was in college and living in residence, there was a student from France there, he came up to me one day exclaiming excitedly that he had just seen a "wash bear" i was incredibly confused until we discussed it further and i figured out that it was a Racoon, he only knew the German word for a racoon, translated that from German to French and then to English

[@KaiHenningsen]

@@ReZerO100 Looks bearish, famous for washing its food, yes. "Bear", like "apple", is often used as a basis for naming a species that is not closely related to the one where the name came from. There are, of course, other examples. Like "fly", for example (dragonfly, butterfly).

[@gothicshark]

@@ReZerO100 had to look that up... Waschbär lit means Wash Bear. /facrpalm once again German names for animals playout like memes.

[@Kualinar]

@@KaiHenningsen You mean something like the French term «pomme de route», known in English as «horse apple»...

[@ThePheonixSoldier]

Happy Thanksgiving to all the U.S.A folks and hope it finds the everyone else as well as can be given your circumstance. As well, here's to hoping we see a more peaceful world come this time next year.

[@whirledpeaz5758]

May your next trip around Sol be more prosperous and healthful than the last.

[@Kirsten2933]

I love the glance off to the side at the very end. It was almost like you were not sure the story was over or not. Absolutely wonderful! Actually made me laugh. I needed a good laugh today thank you. 😊

[@nicholasroach880]

For the classiest and best embodied voice of Narration!!!!

[@anathardayaldar]

That side glance at the end made me think he was role playing the nervous host. But actually he was just making sure the story was ended.

[@widdershins5383]

Whoo! That’s my boy! Intellectual beat down haha

[@gothicshark]

Ok, now that was a fun story, I fear "FlowRider Man" is in reference to the "Florida Man" meme.

[@chrisgregory3955]

There was a scene in a tv show (I don't remember which one) where an alien asked a person who was new to space where they were from, to which the human replied "Earth". The alien's response: "Do you know how many species named their homeworld some variant on the word dirt?"

[@TS-bj8my]

Good story/narration, for the algorithm!

[@jukkiivi4282]

Well... That was another way to butcher filthy xenos. Loved it! For the Algorithm! For the Author! For the Narrator! For the Beard!

[@quinnbell2388]

Everyone's first planet is simply Home. What Home is may vary, but it is always your home.

[@darwinskeeper421]

A well thought out and narrated story. I have occasionally pondered our planet's name and generally came to the same conclusion as the author. I remember some people on the forum of the web comic "Freefall" suggest that Sam Starfall's homeworld should be called "Mud" as the world is mostly swampy.

[@davethompson3326]

"Moderessor had a Place, Eio, Eio, O!" 😸

[@bradwolf07]

World "Water" person really stepped in it there

[@davethompson3326]

I was born on a water moon. Some people, especially its inhabitants, called it a planet, but as it was only a little over two hundred kilometres in diameter 'moon' seems the more accurate term. The moon was made entirely of water, by which I mean it was a globe that not only had no land, but no rock either, a sphere with no solid core at all, just water, all the way down to the very centre of the globe.😭💔 Travel far and well Iain!

[@Kualinar]

Flow Rifer Man ? Oh ! I get it. He means Florida Man. So, that show is a trolling contest...

[@rat_king-]

I would have gone for the "place", its just a good victory lap really.

[@amberpelton5679]

Great story! ❤

[@Raggmopp-xl7yf]

I've always wondered why we were so mundane in naming our world. I mean, the original, "Terra Firma" is essentially, "Solid Ground." I decided they were trolling us since we (and they) know we live on a water world.

[@tabithachastain6999]

Poor Agro with the gamer tags 😂

[@MidnightSmoke]

I do love a good debate. Here is a like and comment for the story, for entertaining me, to help your channel grow, and get you the recognition you deserve.

[@leightondoswell453]

🎉 Whoop arrived on time for a change!

[@dkbros1592]

This xenos I'm one steps closer to saying burn The GALAXY but we human are civilized than xeno by the Emperor

[@shawnr6117]

Fun fact: for those that don't know, Earth is the name of an ancient goddess .

[@yomogami4561]

thanks for an interesting story and narration this day

[@mikemoscato2995]

Happy upcoming holidays to all dirtllings on planet DIRT😂

[@allenmorgan1007]

For the Algorithm, for the Author(s), for the Holographic Voice!

[@Y_Llew_Tew]

I feel the need to point out that “PWNED” is not a synonym for “PAWNED” as the screenshot implies.

[@sleeping2696]

The planet named place got me laughing

[@LDSG_A_Team]

Thanks!

[@leechowning2712]

Oh good golly... that was not a beat down... that was the equivalent of the speed-boat of Somali pirates who tried to board an navel supply ship. The turkey got plucked bare and oven roasted, the fish got filleted and fried, and only the insect bugged out fast enough to keep from getting a boot dropped on him. Heck, even the modressor was running scared by the end. Well, it was nice being respected while it lasted. But at least the next time someone chuckles about planet dirt, they will have a clue. Too bad he did not get to the other things translators do to keep everyone from being called "human", or the way all the nations originally meant "here" and "over there", or even that all languages translate to "our language" and "incomprehensible jibberish". They got lucky it was a sociology prof. If it was a linguistics major it would have lasted a good hour, and have to be censored on account of violence. History? Yeah, R-18 rating for sure that show, probably demonetized also. He will have fun with the next 15 visits from this species, but it will be a late night talk show.

[@spartan0377]

Good story 🎉

[@Aenonar]

That questioning side glance at the end xD .....where's the next part...? The end I guess... "The end"... The end..? .......The end????

[@RealArcalian]

Greetings, Mentlegent! For the Rhythm that is Algo Hi everyone, my name's RealArcalian, and I'm a debate bro. Sigh. "Hi RealArcalian!"

[@KuDastardly]

*_"EMMOOOOOTIONAL DAAAAAMAGE!!!"_*

[@davethompson3326]

An imbecile against a competent Professor in debate, is much like a kid against a parent. They know every smartass move you say inside out, they saw them many times before and used most of them themselves equally unsuccessfully before you were a question of spit or swallow.😹

[@brianmorisset4489]

Florida man lives in space

[@davethompson3326]

Wasn't the planet water in Lexx? I'm probably vague if it didn't have a cute girl on it.

[@InternetGravedigger]

So the aliens think we're all stupid to call our planet Dirt and are all Surfer Dudes... yeah, that would not go over well with an intellectual.

[@norsehawk]

Flow Rider man... he's gone interstellar... this is worrying.

[@mikkelnpetersen]

And those are just examples of words with multiple meanings in ENGLISH, don't get us started on all our different languages. I'm from denmark, we have a word joke "Får får får? nej får får ikke får, får får lam" Translated to english it means "does sheep get sheep? No sheep dose not get sheep, sheep get lambs" "Får" can mean both "sheep" or "get". If I remember correctly, there's a chinese "word joke/poem" a bit similar, it's made from the same "word" (shi, if I remember correctly) all the way through.

[@masterpython]

What was the story where the 2 deathworlds near Earth didnt wipe each other out but formed the "Terran Alliance" because all thier planets were called dirt?

[@Wotan874]

we wanted to be better?

[@Wotan874]

sry, "because we wanted to be better" ... "Best Sci Fi Storytime 1462 - Because we wanted to be better | HFY | Deathworlders Unite"

[@somebodyelse3004]

Flow rider man???

[@kirkjones9639]

Just wondering, something wrong with the Cat?

[@Ryvaken]

They...are rather lucky they didn't get an actual Floridian. Lived there for three years, they're nice people, not nearly as crazy as the New Englanders I was getting away from, but when they decide to have a good time or a bad time, HIDE.

[@Bannedchan]

No war, just universal cringe and trolling among the races of the galaxy 😂

[@genericuser984]

neat

[@shaincastillo6772]

And 1000 likes it is

One professor versus 3 neckbeard streamers. Who in the galaxy thought that was a good idea?

* Terra.

[@noppornwongrassamee8941]

Means exactly the same thing as Earth. It only sounds exotic to anyone who doesn't natively speak a Romance language (aka Latin and it's derivatives).

[@SpitfiretheCat16]

the funniest part of this comment is that there's a "translate" option and when you click it Terra instantly becomes Earth

[@МихаилРозов-ю9п]

@@noppornwongrassamee8941 You missed the meaning entirely. Earth is an english word which means it appeared after V century a.d. By that time, two attempts to build a socially just type of the post-information society (also known as communism) had already failed in Sparta. Pythagoras said that the Γαῖα is round a thousand years before. Heron of Alexandria has already created a steam engine. And in India, matanalysis was created. The Maya compiled their calendar of outstanding accuracy.

[@paulalain2798]

it was a gd story but abit anticlimactic

[@jhoneldrich9560]

Cringe Galaxy lol

[@beingsneaky]

Wtf is this?? And wth is flow rider mans??

[@vibrolax]

Too many misread words in the first 30 seconds. I know it's a low effort content space, but I get annoyed by humans or _programs_ that can't read accurately.

[@bluefmi]

awful story. boring as hell and on top of that going on side descriptions so much, it increased the awfulness to a new level.
