Can we talk about how Jake successfully managed to stop a scroll episode? Never thought that was possible.

[@oldskulziom]

didn't stop it, never stoped it. Just posponed it to another day

TOP TEN WAYS TO STOP A SCROLL EPISODE, by Jake Schmuel HURFELD

[@darkaiel]

The scroll was probably top 10 new names for Amir

[@Brian-nw3ey]

Hilarious asf

[@SteveJohnson-ht6kv]

Sure, you can talk about how this was GOLDEN AGE

[@BadGoof]

Can't wait for 800 episodes of Jake and Marcus.

Jake and crudis **

"I'm a Dennis to society" is a guaranteed classic J&A line.

[@jasonzdoodle]

This one was more unhinged than usual. I loved it.

[@SteveJohnson-ht6kv]

Golden age

[@theindianmeme]

You must be new here

[@Chris180Z]

You should check the old J&A stuff 😂😂

[@k.m.2629]

I really like having the HeadGum staff to fill out the background like back in the CH days. That's a small change that actually does make a difference.

[@PogieJoe]

I agree. It really adds to the social embarrassment that Amir refuses to accept

[@brianyobbz497]

The background characters actions are some of the best parts of Hardly Working

[@super_stotter]

Jakes gone from "How can you start chants this easily!?" to "That's one thing man, you can get a good chant going!!"😂

[@wowzers1237____]

Amir, you should change your name to Vance. That way, after a while the mailman will start to call you Vance. He'll be like "Hey Vance, how's it going?" and you can go "Oh, pretty good but actually BOOM gotcha! My name is Brad!"

[@Bobbleheads56]

Thats my favorite little life hack

[@wowzers1237____]

@@Bobbleheads56 Quincy?

[@jg613887]

But that's not a life hack because his name will actually be Vance

[@seannovak3700]

Brad from Teaneck?

I love the minor disagreements. "You stabbed me... And your a bad listener... The listening thing again."

"I can get a tight fade" The delivery was gold and he said it so out of context, truly one of the lines of all time

[@ejoshcoron]

"I can get a tight fade" 😂😂

[@quadling3521]

I love that in the world of the show, Jake feels this way and still chose to not only continue working with Amir but start an entire podcast network with him.

[@BrightAfternoonProductionsPlus]

Honestly a very sweet ending, Amir deserved the win (and quite frankly, so much more than this)

[@andresluz4973]

Don’t you mean Marcus?

"And if you died Cory. No one would miss Cory, no one would care" Easily my favourite line from the video.

[@bobxyzp]

“Why do you say his name so much? He knows his own name.”

[@xenofes2]

This felt like it came from peak Jake and Amir years, and I'm here for it.

[@tosinakanji9715]

Jack and Amos becoming Josh and Marcus is real Doobs move.

[@Azimii]

doobs move? must’ve learned from amir’s father’s spindly little legs

[@peterwyman1082]

You coward!

[@ben3480]

Jook and amoosh!

[@brominedreams3798]

New name? nahhhh, new YOU

[@SeraphsWitness]

They're finally both on the same page for all of 5 seconds at the end. It's a miracle. Also that scroll was looking *particularly cherry* and begging to be read.

[@dylanjwebmusic]

Jake smiling at Amir and the staff joining in, turned this from a good episode to a really special one. Love it

[@MicrosoftTeamsSpotter]

These Coy, yiddish Divas TAUNTING us with a new scroll. Stellar as always, hotties

[@UndeniableOctopus]

All these new names, and not a single mention of Crandis? We deserve so much more than this...this...this...this...poison

[@SirTatManTat]

I think it might be spelled Qrankdis unfortunately.

[@SteveJohnson-ht6kv]

It’s fine, this is golden age shit. I’m serious

[@bobxyzp]

Stop saying poison

[@cocomonkilla]

Idk why he's giving Marcus this... this... this... silent treatment

[@schuesslerlauren]

No one's giving you the silent treatment!​@@cocomonkilla

[@honkifyoudonk]

Amir has mastered dead not-listening eyes and joyful little Jake fully embodying a 5 year old watching cake come out at their birthday as he slaps the table and chants Marcus, all these years later still bringin the heat boys

[@KyanNezhad]

if someone was just starting Jake and Amir I'd never show them this episode, and yet it's one of my all time favs. Bravo

[@danielhansen1266]

miles... miles? MILES!

"Carl- Fuck you, Carl." Comes out so smooth.

That’s a damn quote from the video. It’s funny is all

[@Ateka9]

I would have loved for the room to turn on Jake for chanting along at the end.

[@maybetomorrowmaybe]

IDK, I kind of liked the wholesome ending for once lol

[@C4rps]

This episode was a winning formula of sorts... of jorts! I may or may not have open-mouth French kissed a pig snout while he sneezed into my mouth.

Jake only loves himself when his name is JOSH

[@jordangilbert5300]

I love how that's the best scroll they've ever gotten for an episode and it ended up not being a scroll episode.

[@Goatchild90]

"Nobody in this world loves you and no one ever will" "I can get a tight fade" lmao

[@ScootaGray]

Once Jake joined in on the chant I was sure Marcus was just dreaming😂

[@restroyer]

He could actually save a lot of time washing his hands before, rather than after!

[@BaboonZone]

"it was your foot, no matter what your name is" best J&A line of the freaking century

"Nobody... in this world... loves you... and no one. ever. will." So OTT harsh it's funny 😂 Very funny ep!

How are these guys getting better 😂 when the first couple of videos came out I thought they lost it but this is more than gold, this is iron

[@janana7997]

the callbacks in this episode are so funnnnn…! loved it

[@rachel-lo6ty]

i did not want this video to ever end. perfection

[@richardb1816]

I love how their rapport has evolved over the decade and a half that Jake’s tone is one of acceptance, he states facts that they both know, and his chant is something he welcomes, he faces and accepts the absurd

[@80lemon80]

Years of Weird Amir or Weird Jake episodes have finally culminated in to a perfect Weird Jake and Amir episode

the way amir gestures when jake is saying that he swings wildly from insecurity to confidence was perfection

[@TheJJZeeman]

This episode has the Jake and Amir energy I fell in love with so many years ago, let’s go MARCUS MARCUS!

[@poponater1000]

absolutely loved how this tied into the lore. felt more like a classic j&a where amir was a true pice of smelly shit and jake was so insecure that he hung out with amir just to have a sense of superiority over someone. and a classic chant! marcus! marcus! marcus!

[@emonoglesby]

The random names and the tight fade is crazy funny

[@RickFoxChicken]

You still don't know how to express anger, HENRY HENRY HENRY
