John Darnielle - I Thought I Would Do Like The Guys On The Twitches Do

[@thefpvyawthority8106]

You know you are a mountain goats fan when you watch JD talk about a card game you will never play and you damn sure dont understand

[@OpioidSlumber]

Yeah, I have no idea what he's talking about but it calms me to listen to him

[@someoneelse1534]

“You get to take over someone’s creature, hit them with it, and then sacrifice it, which sounds like a mountain goats song”

[@oldladyhater]

the names of all these cards are alternate-universe mountain goats song titles

[@omarselwyn9060]

I don’t even play magic and I want more of these so bad. The dad energy on display is impeccable.

[@danniedeer]

So much dad energy! I feel vitalized by this sweet, sweet man.

[@christopherbarr1454]

As someone who is a fan of both magic and the mountain goats this has got to be the best thing I’ve ever seen.

[@alexanderconstantin5261]

0:54 Nooooow I have everything I need

[@someoneelse1534]

You bought me a planeswalker deck, and you bought me a booster pack, and you bought me...

[@foxthorne2815]

I really want JD to like be my dad or something after watching this vid, he just has such calming dad energy and while I know absolutely nothing about magic the gathering this was so nice to watch

[@wogdog985]

he just has that kind of aura and voice that just washes a wave of relief you didn’t know you needed over your head

[@GraceMcFadden]

"cuz i'm COOL" me too, john.

[@gianna2003]

i have no idea what any of this means but you go you funky man

[@DinoDudeDillon]

Oh man I want to play magic with JD so bad now just to hear the entertaining things he would say.

[@TheGabrielbowater]

OMFG JD is a magic guy.... Makes all the sense though

[@Ifritsdotnet]

using act of treason and then sacrificing the creature is definitely a mood

[@blackmoldinurwalls]

Man the title is misleading. I thought he was gonna play fortnite and say the n word

[@VirtualInsanity91]

This comment actually made laugh out loud. well done.

[@pig8817]

I feel like John plays black blue.

[@danielmustardshomelesssong950]

i thought i already loved this guy now i love him SO much more

[@CriminalFriday]

What an adorable man

[@satinesphynx6585]

My boyfriend is trying to teach me this game. Lol. Saw your show in philly! Love you JD! < 333

[@Milque_toast_]

That moment when you discover your favorite artist/musician/lyricist is also into MTG... Priceless

[@patricknugent3617]

Doing great work as always, West

[@IrisGlowingBlue]

[@sacharyy]

John is just my dad but cooler

[@srtnnrnn7405]

I didn't know how much I needed this.

[@cameronsouth4029]

[@blakeatkinson8517]

MORE. NOW. PLEASE

[@6oclocktvhour847]

My sibling's weird creepy friend taught me to play Magic. Great game.

[@frazerman1]

GOD BLESS JD!!!

[@jibopjopip2988]

The guys on the twitches, wow

[@Dothackfreak11]

Looking for John Green’s comment.

[@dallydeeds2364]

I'd love to see some of your favorite cards and hear your thoughts on artwork/flavor text.

[@ChristBurner]

i wish john my dad

[@TheGabrielbowater]

Fuck, a Cavalier is a great draw

[@Justin-ib2iz]

So which is the Protector?

[@zeno2023]

In the comments of the Facebook post he picked the Moat Pirahanas to be The Protector

[@nathanialmynameisajoke]

Ofcourse he plays mtg lol

[@bjornironside8671]

Alright... who's the one clown to downvote?

[@katherinec4360]

What is John Darnielle's Twitch account?

[@marklane1255]

Worried a bit about John's skin color here. Either not enough sunscreen or too-high blood pressure.
