EVERY VLOGBROTHERS PUNISHMENT!

So I got a little confused about who owed what punishments and then we went a little overboard and with the help of a team of Nerdfighting researchers rooted out the cause and effect of EVERY SINGLE PUNISHMENT ON VLOGBROTHERS SINCE JANUARY OF 2007!
Playlist of all those videos here: • Punishments
The thing I realized while doing this is that we have been doing this for a very....very....very long time. Holy monkey butts...a long time.

[@ArtemisScribe]

John has to spend an entire day wandering around and introducing himself to people as "John Green, New York Times Best Selling Author"

[@enlightedjedi]

Best one, better than my suggestion!

[@enlightedjedi]

A little evil, but doable!

[@colleenryan8862]

YEAS I LIKESIES U

[@ginnypiggs]

I LIKE THIS ONE

[@laurenstell8087]

Yesss!

[@ZoggFromBetelgeuse]

Other punishment idea: John has to do an entire video directed by his son Henry. He must do, say and wear whatever Henry wants, unless it's impossible, harmful, unethical, much too expensive, violates the four-minutes rule, or requires more than two hours of preparation. In particular, the following objections are not allowed: - That's ridiculous - That's stupid - That will taste awful - I will not wear this, I'm a grown-up man - I can't sing - Dinosaurs and dragons never actually coexisted, and certainly never fought any bad guys. - Who told you about iambic pentameters? Do you even know what this is? Edit: Negotiations, bribery and referring to parental authority are not allowed either. So, no "You get a chocolate bar if we forget about the Spongebob thing" or "If I can hop on _two_ legs you can stay up an hour more tonight".

[@sophiefennelly287]

Yes Please John!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@daffmaster]

Yes, this is the best, John you must do it!!

[@plodiN3]

So much yes. Please :)

[@thequeerestdeer2177]

This is amazing!!!!!

[@starrlitestarrbright]

YES!!

[@JontyLevine]

I suggested this before, but here goes. John must grow a Movember beard on the left side of his face. Hank, likewise on the right side. At the end of the month, we would put the two halves together to make a complete vlogbrother beard.

[@Coerciveutopian]

This one is my favorite.

[@emilystine8332]

I hope they do this one!

[@rileymartin7559]

I laughed too hard at this :'D

[@kylewebster2915]

yess

[@brooksjedi]

this... this is pure genius!

[@jupiterrocks24]

John must make a Quidditch tutorial video with whatever broom he has around the house.

[@jems.crafting.closet]

So far this is my favorite. Of course the fact that I'm knee-deep in a Harry Potter reread right now might have something to do with it. JOHN DO THIS ONE.

[@jupiterrocks24]

@Aeryn Thank you! My friend and I went over a few, and this one seemed the best.

[@flo9724]

Aeryn Harman im rereading too! im about to start half blood prince

[@valeriecalvo8189]

That's just a cool idea though, not really a punishment.

[@glittergirl719]

Hahah

[@RachelandJun]

Vlogbrothers punishment videos are probably my favorite videos ever. I'm pretty sure I cried from laughter with the chin waxing and slobber carrots. -Rachel

[@Libithina]

You're a nerdfighter?! That's so awesome

[@TheC0mart]

When I'm feeling down I watch Hank sing World Wide Web Girl. Cheers me up every time.

[@89nekkoinu]

It really shock me too

[@yourbabyscorpse]

Rachel commenting on a vlogbrothers video? Like a normal viewer? I'm confused D:

[@awale223]

OMG. This past week I've discovered that Rachel likes EatyourKimchi as well as the vlogbrothers. This is amazing

[@deactivated-78936]

John has to put on a 100% serious Sing-A-Ma-Jig concert for actual people in public.

[@EowynEvans]

That is genius!!!!

[@graceclymer6673]

Many actual people.

[@barrymccabe2112]

This is a great idea. But John may not see it as a punishment :)

[@stacyross80]

YAS

[@hemdan1845]

We shouldn't punish the public.

[@boyinaband]

Punishment idea: Hank do a John video, John do a Hank video.

[@fartzinwind]

They should also have to do an acceptable impersonation of the other during the whole video, or suffer further consequences.

[@IroniqEleganceX]

fartzinwind YES!

[@jgray1138]

OMG Dave is a nerdfighter! Huge fan of your work! Keep it up Boyinaband

[@aRobeGamr]

Addendum: You must get a Swedish guy to produce it.

[@simpsonman956]

So John would have to talk about science, music, and/or the environment, and Hank would have to talk about english, history, and/or art? Or they could both cheat just by talking about current events. Lol

[@vlogbrothers]

So ***** got a little confused about who owed what punishments and then we went a little overboard and with the help of a team of Nerdfighting researchers rooted out the cause and effect of EVERY SINGLE PUNISHMENT ON VLOGBROTHERS SINCE JANUARY OF 2007!

[@Teenbabz1995]

Finally!!! Two years in the making.

[@GhostOfJohnLennon]

this video is 4:01 long...does that mean hank has to do a punishment?

[@Madison_95]

ztoigo Hank explained the 4:01 exception in this video.

[@GhostOfJohnLennon]

i know, but he still had to do a punishment then...and now the video is 3:59. so. i guess no punishment.

[@Madison_95]

There is still a punishment from 2012.

[@zephyrvescent]

PUNISHMENTS: Each of you invite your wives to do your Tuesday and Friday blogs, and they must share with all of nerdfighteria some amusing anecdotes about your behaviors OFF CAMERA!

[@devonk8766]

A YETI SIGHTING ON THE VLOGBROTHERS!! THAT IS UNHEARD OF!!!

[@zephyrvescent]

Owen K That's why I suggested it! Though they could show up in disguise.

[@alannar.5520]

Bonus: John and Hank don't see it until after it's uploaded.

[@krystalkeahey3546]

Brilliant!

[@OnAStickPoop]

I really want to see this happen.

[@ZoggFromBetelgeuse]

I will propose a punishment for John: In iambic feet like Shakespeare must he speak, And five, not more, not less, for ev'ry line. For one entire vid͜eo , that's the deal. You earthlings like pentameters, I think and iambic ones are not that hard to make. The Bard wrote countless plays in iambic feet, and countless others follow-ed his lead. So, John, accept this punishment! (Or don't.)

[@alannar.5520]

John would enjoy that a little bit too much.

[@dominiquevas9798]

that woudlnt be a punishment for john he's not supposed to be happy and excited about it

[@ZoggFromBetelgeuse]

***** I'm not a native speaker.

[@MrCass1uS]

***** He's from Betelgeuse. Do you know how far away that place is?

[@SSGranor]

Please, no. Iambic pentameter is _terrible_. And, besides, if you want the punishment to be really epic, it has to be in dactylic hexameter.

[@kitkatzinix]

Take an ice bath while reading aloud a passage from twilight.

[@VideoNozoki]

(50 Shades of Grey??)

[@kitkatzinix]

I thought that at first but that would be too cruel

[@mlemleh]

***** Way too cruel.

[@speedstacker51]

***** And besides he's already bashed Twilight before anyway, so it makes sense

[@Ariel-ps8je]

John likes twilight

[@SunyiSideUp]

John must go around town announcing himself as Dave Green, John Green's Lesser Known Brother

[@glittergirl719]

Hahah yes

[@kejiakayouroldersister]

Perf

[@Anmapafi]

He should announce himself as HANK's lesser known brother XD "Who the eff is Hank?"

[@astvproductions]

omg this one. this one is the winner.

[@D__03]

I support this.

[@HowToBasic]

DFTBE! Don't forget to be egg

[@PKEin]

What if john had to reenact one of your videos?

[@shy0dusk]

Stop yolking around, that was an eggtremely bad joke.

[@lilykeene7114]

HOW TO BASIC I LOVE YOU PLEASE TEACH ME HOW TO PROPERLY COOK BREAKFAST SAUSAGE I HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED

[@AceandDuce]

So you where losing subs so you decided to start commenting on every popular youtubers videos so you can get your subs up more

[@NecrisPC]

How not to get your plane nuked by AA Russian missiles

[@whitebutginger]

John paint yourself green and then go out into your local town and take a picture/selfie with every green thing you find within a time limit. (Hank can join in as a competition-like dual challenge)

[@glittergirl719]

Omg this should be one of their challenges! And who ever takes the most picture wins! And the looser gets another punishment

[@LordLoldemort7]

YES

[@venusedlin7036]

John GREEN yasssssss!!!!!

[@JohnSmith-rb6zj]

Here's a punishment idea: The John has to read his favorite fan fiction of Looking for Alaska. Here are some rules: -It must be raunchy. -No spoilers -Every time John laughs, he must chug Strawberry Hill for three seconds. -Every time John pauses for any non-respiratory reason he must take a sip of a mixture of equal parts milk and vodka. -It must be in one take. -Afterwards, John must take a breathalyzer test. -This will be exempt from the four minute rule. Punishments should be exempt from that rule as it eliminates some hilarious methods of self-humiliation. *Edit* -This should be done on January 10 *Edit* -Since he missed 1/10/15, he can do it on any day, but it still needs to be done.

[@JohnSmith-rb6zj]

***** Fine. Here's an alternative punishment: John has to admit that The Fault in our Stars is riddled with cliches.

[@nerdfighterable]

Not letting him go easy, huh?

[@ryanb8367]

jeeze man

[@JohnSmith-rb6zj]

nerdfighterable Nope. If he can wax his leg he can suffer the emotional trauma of either of my proposed punishments

[@ilikepinklemonade]

HAHA YES

[@SparkySywer]

John must go around town dressed as Gandalf making sure none pass.

[@sketchleaf7698]

That actually sounds more fun than humiliating.

[@applebees-px3iy]

BEST. IDEA. EVER.

[@enlightedjedi]

John must go around town dressed as a balrog making sure none pass.

[@ZonaHrnjak]

Totally yes

[@nicole4l]

Make John see TFIOS as many times as his local theater has it playing, and during each movie he has to apologize to the entire theater during all the sad parts. Do this until there are no more showings, or he is kicked out.

[@HappinessandSyanide]

Yes!!

[@chloem4979]

Yesssssss

[@Cinnamondoodle]

Hank, please make this happen.

[@hopesnyder9032]

1. fantastic idea 2. I think that a better idea is that: John has to re-enact a scene from TFiOS with Bill Gates. Bill Gates being Gus, and John being Hazel.

[@nicole4l]

Hope Snyder Hahaha I can't see Bill Gates being up for something like that

[@skarloeyable]

John should definitely play out every key moment of the TFiOS movie with him playing Hazel and the dog playing Augustus.

[@marijnpeeters97]

Omg this one is perfect!! Please do this one?

[@carolinen323]

Please please please please please!!! This would be brilliant (but with no spoilers for people who don't know the story yet)

[@lauren.__.alexandra4739]

It's not educational and it would be longer than 4:00-4:01 minutes

[@ginnypiggs]

JOHN PUNISHMENT: henry does john's makeup and after that, john goes to a public area and teaches random strangers how to happy dance.

[@alexhowerton5411]

YES. JUST YES!!!! :D

[@Ruminations09]

I like this. I like this a lot.

[@glittergirl719]

Yesss

[@norththelemon]

OMG love it!!!!

[@soraenja952]

John wears a mermaid fin and flops around in a tub in Bed, Bath, and Beyond for 2 hours, and asking passersby to help him back into the ocean.

[@Sylvyi]

OMG yes that would be hilarious!

[@elizabethrodio9393]

THIS MUST HAPPEN!!!!!!

[@kellywaters6049]

YES PLEASE

[@jackpasternak7586]

That's much better than my idea... I thought John should have to watch all Vlogbrothers videos three times in a row while only breaking once for a five minute bathroom break.

[@konataotakuawesome]

YESSSSS THIS SHOULD/ HOPEFULLY WILL HAPPEN. JOHN GET YOUR FLIPPERS!!!!

[@mypinkcookiez]

John should let Henry do his makeup

[@PiandBooks]

That's a very good idea!!

[@requiembeeblebroxx]

And perhaps take a picture of the result and make that his avatar on all of his social media sites for a week.

[@maddiezapss]

I second this punishment

[@kiirohime]

Yes. This. Make this happen.

[@CascataAriana]

Yes.

[@timetuner]

Got into 3 different stores and make a purchase entirely in pennies in each.

[@caitlin_w]

While I love the idea of making him use pennies, I feel like that's just as much a punishment for the people working at the stores.

[@TotallyPixelated1]

Caitlin W Maybe make John find 100 uses for pennies then? Although I think that he may have already done that in a video of his own volition...

[@timetuner]

Caitlin W Pay exact change for a week or two?

[@benjaminh7614]

YESS!!!!

[@niamhbrowne4995]

I think John's punishment should be having to purchase everything for a day with pennies. Like go to through the agony of counting all the pennies and then do his weekly shop with the pennies or something I dunno

[@ninamedis7142]

You are a freaking genius!

[@paranormal17]

This gets my vote!

[@elikauffman1605]

YES!

[@clyde1500]

While hilarious and hell inducing for John, most stores won't allow that and will deny him service.

[@Anmapafi]

Nothing would make John feel more punished than this XD have him go grocery shopping and pay for everything in pennies!

[@lemon6521]

Make John cosplay as a teen girl in a theater watching Tfios

[@r.darling4135]

*Stereotypical teenage girl. That'd be hilarious although what does cosplay mean?

[@zackp2879]

This is just perfect. And I'm sure it'd make some random nerdfighters very happy.

[@burstingstitches]

R. Darling its basically wearing a costume and acting like the character you have dressed up as. Cos- costume Play- role play

[@IWannaBeAnArtistToo]

THIS ONE IS THE BEST ONE.

[@silly982]

This. I like this.

[@MandaRoberts]

John should read a TFIOS fanfic out loud in front of the Yeti and Hank should have to complete the jelly bean challenge.

[@alannar.5520]

I don't know what the jellybean challenge is, it that where you have to guess Bertie Bott's flavors blindfolded? Also, I think the yeti should read to John.

[@talia_franks]

Authors don't usually read fanfic 'cause of liability issues: www.themarysue.com/writers-fanfiction/

[@genesisthis]

Talia Fluff but TFiOS is not a series so it shouldn't be a problem

[@talia_franks]

Atom Eve you're right, didn't think of that. I was half asleep when I commented (not my best move)

[@Dajara]

Punishment idea for John: Since he is finally in control of his puff levels again, how about a nice new hair colour? I am suggesting green

[@jchobbit]

I am pretty sure in one of their earlier videos his wife vetoed green hair.

[@TobiBunny]

Purple.

[@Dajara]

it wasn't the most original idea, admittedly, but i felt bad about my other ideas because they were all painful how about henna in a visible spot? sightly pornographic henna?

[@caitlin_w]

Dajara I feel like the Yeti would also veto that...

[@nunofdavid]

YES!! OMG THIS!

[@nerdsshalldominate]

PUNISHMENT FOR JOHN: John must purchase the materials and pattern, and sew a dress for the yeti.

[@ilikepinklemonade]

YES

[@weirdali]

double yes yes

[@AltParadigm]

Isn't this more of a punishment for the Yeti than for John?

[@Arachne-qw1vr]

***** The 'Yeti' is John's spouse.

[@4iluvsuga]

***** You must be new here...

[@SophieTan]

Punishment: They have to write a love song to each other.

[@glittergirl719]

Yessss

[@FantasyMind231]

make sure it's romantic, not brotherly love

[@rhianwluv]

YESSSSSSSS

[@kierankaleidoscope]

Punishment: John must choose one of the previous punishments (performed by either John OR Hank) and redo it.

[@matthewaskari2946]

I say that Hank gets to choose one of the past punishments for John or Hank and then John must redo it

[@lissy42nerdfighter]

My vote is for a johnroll

[@kierankaleidoscope]

YES I love that idea.

[@AbbieElizabeth13]

John should have conversations with random people only being able to speak quotes from his books.

[@Rashiuable]

That would be fantastic.

[@madison11burkemper]

This needs to happen!

[@AbbieElizabeth13]

Rashiuable Exactly!

[@AbbieElizabeth13]

DOOWEEDOOOOCTOR!!!! That's what I'm saying!!

[@helga2870]

Great idea!

[@bassetts1899]

John has to dress up like Gilderoy Lockhart, introduce himself to strangers on the street as Gilderoy Lockhart (Order of Merlin, Third Class, Honorary member of the Dark Force Defense League, and five times winner of Witch Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award) and insist on giving his autograph to everyone.

[@BombThrowinDrunk]

have a rap off and the loser recieves the ULTIMATE PUNISHMENT

[@glittergirl719]

[@TheRiskyBrothers]

hank would win the rap-off too easily,

[@nicolereeds1524]

John should have to find a Dave Green and inform him about his past at Hogwarts and everything else about himself from YourPants, Tumblr and various KZbin comments.

[@alannar.5520]

Genius. Utter genius. And he should try to find the Dave Green the looks the most like a Green brother.

[@anniemartinez6113]

Yes! This has been my favorite idea so far!

[@mathmusicminecraft]

There is an Dave Green in astrophysics. Here is his homepage: www.mrao.cam.ac.uk/~dag/. Out of the Dave Greens I can find, he is the most vlogbrotherish

[@alannar.5520]

Also, his name can be David Green, since Dave is a common nickname for David.

[@__RD14533]

I agree!

[@davidhallman5918]

Make John watch MTV for a day and write a synopsis for everything he saw.

[@Borjigin.]

This is probably the most entertaining idea I've seen on here, and it's painful too.

[@Claire-vd1vi]

Good idea.

[@PeregrineHawthorn]

This is brilliant and must happen.

[@Xaphedo]

All of my yesses. Here, I'll even let you have my very own sì!

[@aimelle3]

Oh yes please.

[@Craftsworldsocial]

John: read one of the worst books you've ever read before- then reflect--- Hank: (since John has had more food punishments) take all the condiments in your fridge and make a soup and eat it.

[@meevsdagr8er]

What a great trip down memory lane! very nostalgic for the good old days on this channel. John, you have to sign your name 150,000 times again. EDIT: you have to sign your name 2,000 times per day for a week (7 days) 150,000 would be ridiculous for your current busy schedule

[@meevsdagr8er]

You don't need to do it on 150,000 different sheets of paper like last time though, you can have multiple pages

[@laurenronstadt6688]

He had to have hand therapy because of that though... Maybe not a good idea

[@lilycp01]

How about half as many times with his non-dominant hand? (They'll have to be recognizable signatures.)

[@laurenronstadt6688]

That is still horrible

[@meevsdagr8er]

keep it up laura, i'll make it a million also he could do it in a year instead of in like 74 days like last time, that should help

[@ShadUpJoe221]

Make John walk up to tween girls for a few hours and simply say, "Okay?". Watch the hilarity ensue.

[@davidshi451]

That…is amazing/creepy?

[@ytpeach]

Seconded

[@ElizaCorder]

And he has to record it, of course.

[@jayflinn3333]

HAHAHA this would be hilarious

[@CascataAriana]

This would be amusing, but I'm pretty sure John has issues with anxiety, and that just seems like trouble waiting to happen.

[@jnsnj1]

Hot glue as many pennies as will fit on a tshirt and then wear that shirt around town for the day spreading the virtues of the penny.

[@sandrilene23]

I like this! It's better than the "paying for stuff with pennies" idea because this way John isn't giving all those useless pennies to cashiers. :D

[@QuiddicalMass]

Why not go full penny chainmail or coif?

[@awale223]

THIS. YES.

[@Sarahnewks]

Yes pease!

[@Nba7102]

Yes do this screw my idea of him sitting on the roof

[@tri-slosher]

Hank and John must switch their roles in Crash Course for one episode. Hank does Literature. John does Psychology.

[@enlightedjedi]

Great ideea!

[@nerdfighterable]

NO. John does Chemistry. (harder than psych) Hank does...History. And NO PREPARATION; they must go on the show and talk about the topic that was listed for the week.

[@lindasbeauty3047]

Johns punishment: Hank should write a quiz for John with 10 questions. John should pick 10 edible things he likes and 10 things he hates. Then he's gonna answer the quiz and for every wrong answer he has to put 1 of the gross things into the blender and for every correct answer he has to put one of the things he likes into the blender and when all the questions is answered he has to blend all the ingredients and drink/eat it.

[@seanfraser3125]

And then the roles reverse for Hank's punishment perhaps?

[@genesisthis]

John should reenact a scene from the TFIOS movie...with Bill Gates.

[@jamesmorgan9258]

So much yes.

[@Feyling__1]

YES YES YES YES YES YES

[@Hygge09]

Amazing.

[@stacyross80]

I approve this punishment.

[@Dalxein]

If Gates is okay with it, yes.

[@sarasamir2113]

Make John act a scene from Twilight... with the Yeti!

[@nunofdavid]

YES

[@sarasamir2113]

I'm guessing the one where Bella tells Edward he is a vampire... in the woods.. Brrrrr...

[@c.i.demann3069]

Edward and Bella in the restaurant. "I have a special diet."

[@brndn112358]

But the Yeti didn't do anything wrong‽

[@paigedickson8810]

The problem is that also punishes Sarah, and she did nothing wrong.

[@u1m1a]

A Punishment Idea: Dress up wearing actual pizza to truly become Pizza John then walk around town introducing yourself as "Pizza John, New York Times Best Selling Author". I just merged to other punishments I saw in the comments :p

[@amykathleen2]

THIS ONE IS THE BEST ONE, I DO NOT KNOW WHY IT HAS SO FEW LIKES

[@duckyc0769]

John should go around town eating vanilla pudding out of a mayo jar

[@Aidasedai]

I think it would be better if he just ate the mayo!

[@JohnSmith-rb6zj]

Meg Sorensen That's a health hazard.

[@hiwayM9]

I think as John's punishment, he should have to put on pink taffeta nylons and a nerdfighteria tee shirt and fill the nylons with warm tuna fish, and go out into any public grassy area at precisely midnight, sit in the cool dewy lawn and softly say, "Here kitty, kitty, kitty" for 4 minutes and 1 second. Funny hat optional. LOL cat sign is mandatory.

[@Live4theblacknote]

That is horribly wonderful!

[@Gatycute05]

For some reason I feel I need to see that

[@Gatycute05]

For some reason I feel I need to see that

[@awale223]

haha I love this! But I feel that it should be during the day. Not hard to do if there's barely anyone around to see!

[@sebyiuga2184]

No, it should be 4 hours and 1 minute. 4minutes is far too easy.

[@kenobigirliz]

John should do a cover of Lorde's Royals.

[@emilyambler5821]

This needs to happen

[@Niko__01]

I second this motion

[@leonardofls91]

While dressed as Lorde (wig included)

[@dapa4]

I think he might like that a bit too much..

[@xiaocaialderson7014]

And lipstick too!

[@iGingerNinjaTV]

John, dramatically reenact a passage from Looking For Alaska in your closest shopping mall while wearing something Hank deems inappropriate

[@MichaelLinkeMarketing]

spend a night on chatroulette and make a compilation video about reactions of people who recognized you :D

[@H3manator]

yes

[@thisiskeels]

John should have to make a four minute video about the useful aspects of the penny.

[@untappedinkwell]

Yay! Another penny punishment I can get behind!

[@thisiskeels]

I honestly cannot imagine something John would hate more.

[@untappedinkwell]

Same, though I feel like he'd cop out and it would just be a one or two second video where he says "NOTHING" and then it ends.

[@ihathtelekinesis]

You're too cruel.

[@thisiskeels]

ihathtelekinesis Mwahahahahahhahahahahah

[@windsock]

I think john should have to finish every tweet for the next week with # yolo

[@Fawkes42]

Second.

[@vlogerhood]

I think we should pick a punishment that can be recorded with video for our amusement. So disagree with this one.

[@CodedGames]

Also make it so that he has to tweet so many times a day. For example: 500 tweets a day atleast.

[@sam1d22101]

I agree #yolo

[@allanrempel437]

...and just as #yolo was fading away...

[@padoco73]

Punishment idea: One video each with no cuts. One continuous take without interruption. They each need to be more than 3 minutes, but still less than 4, and no pauses longer than half a second.

[@seanfraser3125]

Just replying to let you know that I love this idea.

[@enlightedjedi]

Good one!!!

[@padoco73]

Or a punishment outside the vlogbrothers forum... An episode each of Crash Course and SciShow about the science of punishment. Crash Course about the psychology, SciShow about the neurotransmitters involved.

[@Aidiera]

Thank you very much for the playlist, Hank. My day off is gonna be a good one.

[@ProfessorGigs]

John must order fast food through a drive-thru window... with an "invisible car".

[@EllieDimambroDenson]

Dressed as a unicorn..

[@matthewgoodman7588]

Or his car is a cardboard box with Nascar style advertisements.

[@EllieDimambroDenson]

Or in/on one of those toy cars meant for small children to 'drive'. And when he gets to the counter, he pays only in pennies.

[@Phastings90]

Many, many issues with this. Most of them being drive-through places have almost a scale in front of the window. It's activated by the weight of a car/motorcycle. Few hundred pounds. Another issue. They refuse to give someone without a car food through the window.

[@JZG13]

John punishment: make a video advocating for the continued use of pennies.

[@ChristopherFonseka]

Jon has to re-inact a scene from TFIOS, where he plays every character.

[@sheaelliott942]

I forgot about quite a few of these punishments, but as soon as the video appeared on the screen I remembered immediately and I couldn't stop cringing/smiling in memory of vlogbrothers past. I love Nerdfighteria :)

[@RainWhitehart]

John has to dress up like a cartoon character of Henry's choosing and go to a book store and say hello to at least ten people.

[@MichaelHaskin]

John must only use pennies for one day of buying food/gas/otherstuff. Minimum of 3 purchases, each totally $10 or more. (no buying 3 candy bars in a row to get out of it)

[@ThePmjohnson]

I think you're only allowed to use pennies to buy things up to the value of $5 :(

[@Dreamer7787]

Please do not do this to cashiers. They don't deserve to be punished.

[@Dalxein]

Might be better if John has to go find at least a dollar in street pennies and document each one. Maybe more than one dollar if he's allowed to take multiple trips. Because a hundred pennies is actually kinda' hard.

[@MichaelHaskin]

Dalxein I like your idea better. For every penny he can't find he should have to donate $1 to decrease world suck. (the amount he has to donate can be changed to $2 or $5 to make it help more)

[@Dalxein]

Mandlize OOOH! That's even better!

[@patriciapaguio4484]

John can only talk how Shakespere's noble characters would talk (extremely flowery language that no one understands in iambic pentametre) for a whole day. At the end of the video, John must discuss, still in Shakespearean, how much the English language has changed in these past centuries.

[@VideoNozoki]

That sounds like something he would normally do.

[@ahiruduck597]

I sort of want to see John go sky diving for his punishment, but that might be too mean...

[@jameskelsey9825]

Way way too mean.

[@Tefans97]

He was obtusely terrified of standing on a table...

[@laurenronstadt6688]

That would be horrible. NO.

[@JeanniFloyd]

Brilliant, but way too mean. Judging by his reaction to standing on a table, he'd probably pee himself, hyperventilate, and pass out. (Now I kind of want to see it too).

[@BenjaminAlexander]

How about a hot air balloon ride? It's actually quite peaceful, and he could sit down in the basket to avoid looking at the horizon (or down over the edge).

[@cherrysubmarine]

change 50 dollars into pennies and keep them in a jar by his office for a month

[@Jesse-tf9qk]

Or use them in a $50 dollar purchase!!

[@KunoichiN3rd]

I had a similar idea, thinking about maybe just $10. Maybe he can do something productive with them? Something charity-wise?

[@SeanGHOB]

How about John must make a video in which he makes 5 purchases of no less than $10 each, paid for with pennies! Stoopid pennies!

[@LucTheBold]

Now let's not be so hasty, it's not like he killed anyone. Don't you think that's a little harsh? And way too funny? He might have serious mental repercussions for years to come if we made him do that.

[@naturenstuff4389]

I think it would be over-stepping some lines if we actually made him use the pennies. It would be funny to watch his reaction but it would be cruel to the store clerk(s).

[@Jayyemi]

Evil one: John has to make direct eye contact with as many strangers as possible when he goes shopping

[@44cheetah1]

John should to a thoughts from places (insert tall building here)

[@paigedickson8810]

The sears tower sky deck.

[@wizkida981015]

Brandon OFTO I like the concept of this one, but I don't think one building will cut it. I want to see John do a thoughts from places video in like, Chicago or someplace, but ONLY doing it from the tops of skyscrapers.

[@yananedelcheva]

One of the most hillarious videos I've seen in a while, I just love you guys! ;d

[@IceMetalPunk]

Ooh, ooh! Ideas! John has to spend a day doing anything Henry tells him (within reason), record all of it, and upload a montage of the best moments! I'm sure Henry could come up with some very silly things for his dad...

[@KIWIgirl2014]

How about this: When "Paper Towns" is adapted for films, John will make a cameo in it... BUT IN DRAG.

[@anniemartinez6113]

This one made me laugh the hardest by far!

[@oldasyouromens]

If done well John would make a lovely girl.

[@ToastyBoy17]

I've got a good punishment you could both do. Do a two part play of a story the nerd fighters come up with. You must do your best dressing up as whatever we tell you to. The story would me made up with a vote on what genre (sci first, romance, horror, etc.) and then for specifics have another vote for what it should be about (saving a princess, world domination, finding ultimate treasure...) The only things you guys are tasked with doing is figuring out who will be the hero and who will be the villain, and creating this short 4-8 minute play. Each part of the play would be released on the day you must do your punishments. My calculations show me this could be done in at least a week up to three weeks. You should consider it if this gets any agreeing fans.

[@TheNerdiestJennifer]

Oh my goodness, thanks for reminding me of all these, I'm going to go back and watch them all again! Especially Hank-rolling and the Target one, those are my favourites.

[@Ravenclaw1991]

Thank you for clearing it all up! I was so confused the other day!

[@KairiTardisAndMe]

Paint himself entirely green and go out in public (with clothes of course).

[@1Eilatan]

I think this is one of those essential videos people have to watch to understand the Vlogbrothers.

[@carouselcolours]

This is the video I might direct new Nerdfighters to, in order to introduce them to the community. Because this is basically seven years of videos of four minutes and it was BEAUTIFUL.

[@AliJardz]

I appreciate that you took the time to teach all the new nerdfighters about brotherhood 2.0. Kudos. Also, my inner nerd cannot choose which it prefers - video or spreadsheet.

[@RobertJones]

well you got the best of both worlds here, a video, about a spreadsheet, which is also about videos.

[@catherineroberts7473]

Suggestion: John must buy or find one of those things parents use to hold their baby in, like the ones that turn the parents into like a human car seat, (not the sling, the one with four holes for arms and legs, and, oh never mind you'll figure this out,) and place his dog Willie in it, and walk around town with Willie strapped to John's chest. (There must be video proof!)

[@Sarahbookfan]

This one would be so funny! Unless it would hurt poor Willie.

[@Phelnoth]

He should also get a toddler leash and take Henry with him. Dog in chest harness with actual child on a leash.

[@catherineroberts7473]

Steven Kakoczky Yes! I wouldn't want to hurt either dog nor child, but that would be the best thing ever! I reeeallly hope we get to see that someday!

[@smallthetalk]

Steven Kakoczky that would not be nice for Henry, he has done nothing to deserve being punished as well.

[@Phelnoth]

smallthetalk I don't actually want this to happen, it just sounded like a funny addition to the original suggestion.

[@araluciavideo]

Dang. Thanks for getting those of us who have only been around for the last two years up to speed. Much a enjoyment and appreciation.

[@spiderlee123]

John should have to read aloud the most erotic page in 50 shades of gray in a busy bookstore.

[@catarinamay5168]

:')

[@ava4358]

John should read a really REALLY smutty part of a fanfic outloud on camera in his most deductive voice

[@Borjigin.]

I deduce that you've made an error.

[@liamlysaght6607]

al-Bakh'kam Well played, Sir... well played.

[@liamlysaght6607]

al-Bakh'kam Well played, Sir... well played.

[@JohnBolka]

John has to go through a city, and cannot stop his punishment until he has found EXACTLY $7.50 in change

[@untappedinkwell]

Now this is a penny/change punishment I can get behind.

[@Car0linaPh03nix]

I've been watching vlogbrothers sporadically for a few years, but only started watching consistently about six months ago. This video convinced me that I am not up to par with nerdfighter history, so I am watching every vlogbrothers video ever made, in order. I'm currently in August of Brotherhood 2.0. You guys are awesome (in your pants)

[@miki_cz]

I really love this! Going back to the roots!

[@TobyKidMajor]

John should get a perm.

[@Katest3r]

I like your thinking :D

[@joycoleen4792]

YES! And frosted tips (he will look like Justin Timberlake ;) )

[@SachitheCat]

John should re-enact the entirety of World War II (including the lead up), only using items found in his fridge/pantry

[@Priya-kf5ru]

Punishment; John and Nat need to re-enact the alternative Paper Towns ending, the one where Margo is stuck in the rubble at the end or something. Of course John needs to play Margo, cause he did say Nat is in love with him. ;)

[@vampirica89]

Who's Nat? Thanks.

[@Priya-kf5ru]

Scattered Moon Shards The dude who plays Isaac in Tfios and is going to play Quentin in the Paper Towns film adaptation.

[@vampirica89]

Aaah Nat Wolf. Sorry I somehow had an image of a girl called Nat or Natalie when I read it and I was confused. Didn't know he was going to play in Paper Towns, that's awesome! Thanks again!

[@Priya-kf5ru]

Haha! No worries and yeah John announced it on his Twitter in May. I'm so excited! Nat is going to be a wonderful Quentin.

[@vampirica89]

I'm really excited too! But I'm even more excited that Looking For Alaska got a screenwriter and the things are looking up that it'll become a film. It is by far my favorite John's book. :D And I'd love if the actual musical for WG&WG was ever made. Seem like David Levithan is writing it.

[@lily-aineocc5520]

Punishment for either: Dress up (more like dress down) as Miley Cyrus and sing Wrecking Ball

[@Sarahbookfan]

I don't want to see that.

[@3Silence]

Me neither, it would send the wrong message about licking things... although if Willie did it, that wouldn't be so bad.

[@naturenstuff4389]

I agree. Nerdfighteria isn't about that kinda stuff.

[@JeanniFloyd]

Eva Salacova A WILLIE WRECKING BALL VIDEO WOULD BE THE CUTEST!

[@3Silence]

Jeanni Floyd I just wanna see more Willie.

[@tumtumtreee]

Punishment idea: John must send Shailene Woodley a text/email/message composed entirely by Henry without context and/or explanation

[@bailaeisen5166]

Go out in a public park, lie in the grass facedown, arms outspread like you're hugging the ground, and yell, "I love you, grass!" Possibly with a sign reading "save the grass!" Which you can vehement cross out, fill with anti-grass facts, and sell for charity money once your punishment is over.

[@EllieDimambroDenson]

He should also dress up as a unicorn whilst doing this and shout stuff about the conservation of unicorns and about their awesomeness e.t.c.

[@nataliegood4605]

***** I completely agree. This idea should occur. As a punishment or for pure amusement of nerdfighters, it does not matter.

[@irollamp]

Oooh! I've missed watching a few of those early punishment videos! Thanks!

[@PogieJoe]

One of the funniest and most unique aspects of this channel in my humble opinion!

[@zach.hanford]

I'm all for John making a video advocating the use of pennies. That sounds amusing.

[@disaidra]

we need a playlist of every video with a punishment in it

[@PiandBooks]

I'm on it!

[@may2770]

But there is one in the description of this video

[@caitlin_w]

Hank put a link to one in the description and at the end of the video...

[@disaidra]

I'm an awful person aren't I )X

[@PennyPLove]

Last couple seconds of the video, and in the description. Did someone watch the video...?

[@cscatmagic]

Literally the best vlogbrothers video ever!!! I'm cracking up here in Europe for vacation. And I said to my sister who asked why I was laughing I was watching a vlogbrothers video. John or Hank? I replied hank. And she replied, " Who the hell is Hank?" Yes!!!

[@jtshow9653]

Love your guys channel!!We are new to the vlogging. Great inspiration!

[@enrique30334]

I'm not sure if this is really a punishment but, John should let his son write a short story and publish it in the next book he writes. Idk, I just sounds fun

[@Hammelj]

He should do this anyway

[@modestieispurete]

Or, Henry should write a story and John should have to act it out/read it aloud/perform it in some way.

[@TheAlchymist]

Lindsay Covington Not really a punishment. More like being a good dad.

[@lissy42nerdfighter]

Sounds more like a punishment for Henry

[@benjaminleyer2555]

or ... Let Henry write the story, complete with picture, ON John across his chest, back, arms, whatever). We do it to "problem" kids at Summer camp, its called Postcarding.

[@TheJaredtheJaredlong]

John has to spend 16 hours in the Indianapolis airport.

[@Skorphie]

omg thats brilliant...the grey speckled walls!

[@QuestionableKenz]

he didn't leave a link to the spreadsheet, I'm sad

[@CurrentlyDisconected]

Sandwich Face peanut butter on the forehead jelly on the chin Hold a piece of bread over each ear singing peanut butter jelly time Sandwich face

[@colleenryan8862]

THAT WOULD B AWESOME X 10 TOTHE 100 POWER

[@Papercut337]

Peanut Butter Jelly Time!

[@bealtesandfloyd]

John's already done peanut butter face so that's right up his alley

[@VideoNozoki]

Peanut butter face (or jelly) and he has to go up to everyone he meets and say, "Hello, I am John Green. I am VERY famous on the internet."

[@VideoNozoki]

or "Hello. My brother Hank Green is much more famous than I am, so I am doing this to gain attention and maybe become more famous."

[@AngelaIshere11]

John has to run around his street/ around his house dressed as a unicorn (remember that John hates unicorns)

[@laurahtje]

Why does he hate unicorns?

[@ZonaHrnjak]

Awesome idea.

[@AngelaIshere11]

he hates unicorns because their blood is the reason voldermort lived

[@laurahtje]

haha thanks.

[@jchobbit]

PUNISHMENT - JOHN HAS TO REPLY TO EVERYONE IN THE COMMENT THREAD OF HANKS PUNISHMENT VIDEO.

[@Halosty45]

Harsh!

[@jchobbit]

Maybe just the first 500 comments on the punsihment video, in a live stream or just a regular video.

[@joresvanwensen922]

or in the first 24 hours after the release off the video of hank's punishment.

[@convinceingvince]

Thanks for the beautiful trip down memory lane.

[@cecilpalmer2767]

John should write a poem about peeps and perform it publicly

[@alexhowerton5411]

YESSS
