ASMR Reading Random Words & Their Definitions from a 1983 English Dictionary

[@vendamental9103]

Experiencing Uncle E's intros is the sole reason I was put onto this planet and given the gift of life and free will.

The comments are supposed to be creative and funny

[@futuristic.handgun]

Omg you actually did it!! I commented awhile back on one of your videos that I've been falling asleep to the sound of your voice for so long that you could just read the dictionary and it'd be so comforting and I'd go right to sleep. You commented back that when you took a break from being outside doing your nature adventures that'd you have to do just that and you did!! This is so awesome, haha!! Thank you Paul!! Appreciate you and everything you've made over the years, so much!! 🖤

[@EphemeralRift]

haha funny how the world works!

[@futuristic.handgun]

@@EphemeralRift Indeed! 😊

[@Mr.Fulton]

​@@EphemeralRift Ngl, you should make this a series. I'd keep listening to you reading. It's really comforting for some reason.

[@thefarmercox6862]

Now if you look here, you'll notice the camera being at a skewed angle, also known as a Dutch angle. This is usually to represent a feeling of unease or loss of stability in the eyes of the character, meaning that Rift is slowly losing his sanity 👍

I love old encyclopedias and dictionaries and stuff like that, its so neat to see just how different language and knowledge was from different time periods, love this💙

[@SplendidFellow]

Been listening to this to go to sleep every night since it was released. Great video. Just interesting enough to occupy the mind and deter intrusive thoughts. But just quiet and dull enough to easily drift into sleep.

[@georgeheilman885]

I'm about the same age as that dictionary, and it looks like it has held together better than I have.

that sound in the background really kinda makes the video better in a way, the perfect low drone makes it sort of calming

[@EphemeralRift]

appreciate it! but i never went anywhere! i've been here the entire time since 2011!

@EphemeralRift I apologize! I just mean since the last video! Lol sorry I didn't mean to confuse! Please don't ever leave! It's a legit joy to see when you post!

[@badnadtznai]

great video, thank you! i hope you had a good time making this as much as i'm enjoying it ♡ good day or night to anyone reading this, lots of love

[@Lucianato2]

Paul, this is a fantastic video! I actually liked that droning sound of the truck/mower in the background at the beginning. Take a sample of that sound and loop it, then pan-phase it left & right at a low hum for your next dictionary reading video! 🤘📖🤘

[@EphemeralRift]

hahah we'll see ;)

[@stephanie1733]

I have a dictionary from 1879! I would LOVE to see you read something like that! The word “internet” didn’t exist and there are extra words that we don’t use anymore! Super interesting

Read war of the worlds next please. Loved both the book and the movie, also, in 1938, War of the worlds was read on radio, leading to multiple suicides because people actually believed that south england was being invaded by martians.

Bold to assume planet earth is my home after the alderaanian video. What if i miraculousy escaped and seek shelter? ^^

[@patrickcurran3916]

Every now and then I’ll see ER post a new ASMR video and for whatever reason I’ll wait a few days to watch it. I guess if the title of the video doesn’t catch me right away I save the video first another time. And every time I do that, and finally end up watching said video…and 2-3 seconds in I kick myself or waiting. ER can take any subject, any idea, and make it unique and fascinating. He’s definitely on my Mount Rushmore of ASMR.
