"Things CGP Grey happens to be interested in" is a valid theme

[@YukonHexsun]

Agreed, and I thought that's what he was going to go for. Especially given enough examples, human personality will inevitably CREATE a theme. A solid chunk of all relationships is shared interest in topics, or interest in someone else's interest in a topic, stuff like that. Para-social relationships can work the same way, and they sort of do here. We like Grey because we like the stuff he likes, or we like to see him present information because his personality jives with us. Maybe we like his presentation style, maybe we enjoy watching him talk about stuff he enjoys because his enthusiasm comes out, maybe we like the stuff he talks about and want to learn more, or maybe we never would have even given a certain topic much thought if he hadn't talked about it. Whatever the reason is it's all tied together. Grey is going with the most organic, natural theme of all.

Grey has got to be one of the best creators on this platform.

Every video made with care and a clear passion for even the most obscure of topics. Watching through a lot of his videos, every video is distinct, the only truly common threads being Grey’s fantastic presentation style, and the consistently spectacular quality.

As someone with autism I wish my teachers let me not look them in the eye! You're a great teacher

[@tobybartels8426]

As a math teacher, I don't really want my students to look me in the eye; I want them to look at what I'm pointing to on the board. If occasionally I just stand up and talk without anything on the board to point at, then I wave my arms around, and if there's anything worth looking at at that time, then it's probably my hands.

Eye contact is very scary 0-0

This!!

[@pocketsizedviking4555]

Same!! I have adhd and my hands always need to be busy so my teachers would always scold me for drawing in class

[@tamarlambert6121]

I love how teacher Grey is wearing a tie. In a previous QnA he was really adamant about how he spent his entire life trying to finagle his way out of wearing a tie ever

[@ninjahawk2400]

One of those teens that watched most of their life. I'm 20 now and I've been watching since very early Grey. So, hello.

[@enoughofthis2081]

Bedankt

You can hear the emotions in his voice, when he says thank you

Where do we send in our questions for the next Q&A video ten years from now?

[@gormster]

Sorry, submissions for that Q&A closed yesterday.

[@zakariaislam9891]

Nothing more than "Thank you for everything internet, thank you for my whole life" could convey how much this journey meant to grey and how big a portion of his life it occupied. Thank you too grey! Love from a viewer far across the ocean.

[@warrior3987]

I wrote an argumentative essay on getting rid of pennies for college because you inspired me. I got an A, only lost 5 points. I hope I made you proud.

[@brianmcc5293]

I did a project on voting reform for the same reason!

[@deliriumsd142]

I've honestly thought about writing a mathematical paper on getting rid of not only pennies, but nickels, too. The elimination of a nickel only loses 0.05 and 0.15, every other breakpoint can be acquired by quarters so I don't think nickels are worth managing for two small breakpoints.

[@gregoryvn3]

The internet did something positive. Hold onto that feeling. Here's to another 10 years, may they be better years.

[@CharlieM-re3ml]

That thank you at the end really tugged the heart strings, thank you for the last 10 years Grey, you’ve improved my life and others more than you could imagine.

_tugged the heart strings_ I'm going to "borrow" that if you don't see a problem

[@alysskuriyama5538]

Really really glad someone else understands the struggle of teachers demanding you to stare them down for 90 minutes each day. Most lectures are visually uninteresting - you really don't have to look at the teacher the whole time in order to pay attention. Glad you took that into consideration when teaching.

[@danielcanty5727]

I agree completly. As a more personal story I tend to stare around when I am taking tests, not to cheat but to simply get a new perspective of the room. One time a teacher almost reported me for cheating.

[@SANTI--ez9nw]

The teenager question was something even I hadn't considered! I live in Mexico, and I have to say that your English (yes, the language) and the manner you (at the very least present yourself to) analyze the world has been a huge influence on my life. I started watching you when I was 11 and am now 18, yet, until I saw that question did I realize how big an impact your videos have had on me. I wish you, your wife, and (maybe your neighbours dog) an amazing life, cheers! :)

[@ThomasSethAnderholm]

my response to seeing the thumbnail: "damn ten years!? Well I have been watching this channel since I was a kid." congrats on sticking with it, and thank you!

Im not wearing my glasses, so I thought for sure you said he has been a CROISSANT in your life.... :FACEPALM:

[@defensivekobra3873]

Cannot remember when i first started watching his content but it very much feels like a large portion of my 17 years on this planet

[@KingMckay]

I'm 22 now. Your videos, ideas and thoughts have shaped me all across my adolescence and into my adult life. It's sometimes scary to see how much role models like yourself have impacted my worldview and approach to life. There are so many bad influencers and ideologies shared online that could have messed me up during those key development years. I'm am simply so grateful that it was "you" Mr CPG grey and your friends in the education/science community that took that role in my upbringing. Thank you!

[@AbdullahUsmanKhan]

It was such a sudden tearjerker at the end! I cried. And it felt so nice... Thank you as well man :)

[@Yuskan]

Uh that "Thank you" came right from his heart

[@Conservative4]

*Looks at diagram. "A heart? Did you put that in there? The Grey-bot model isn't supposed to come with one of those."

[@xexpaguette]

I'm just over 20 years old, so I've been watching your content for just under the majority of my life. It will roll over to being the majority before the 11-year anniversary of your first youtube video.

Right in the feels at the end. The only KZbin channel I’ve ever actually sponsored and never had a second thought about it. Love this content. I had to stop due to changes in circumstances but will be signing up again when I can!

Even though I’ve had multiple KZbin accounts, across all my accounts, I’ve been subscribed for 8 years. My entire young adult life is marked by CGP Grey
