Lou Wilson Is Still A National Treasure

[@sosaysjayrod]

Throwing away a nat 20 to get caught in an obvious and unhidden trap in a horror campaign is such a great move. I loved that for him.

[@pikazooka]

And you can tell Brennan was happy Lou did so, because then he could break out the high pitched insanity voice

[@Lucifersfursona]

Fabian 9 nat 1s 🤝 Pinocchio one nat 20 but gerard’s having a bad day

[@leachofsouls]

I've been slowly catching up on Neverafter just got to that episode and it's fucking brilliant.

[@FruityGroovy]

It's what we call content, baby!

[@Drekromancer]

@@pikazookaou could also watch Brennan's tone shift in real time to match Pinocchio's train of thought. On the Nat 20 perception lines, he's giving an honest overview about an obvious trap. But then you see him smile, realize what Lou's doing, and pivot to narrate about how delicious the hotdogs are. Absolute legends.

[@amandacchang]

I love Lou's laugh when he starts saying something truly insane and somehow he keeps going 😂

[@Sandy-banana]

The laughter as he talk about the threat Chungle down Bim made to shit in Fabian’s mouth gets me every time

[@TripleXMango]

It kills me every time. It truly sounds like it hurts him deeply to laugh that hard. It sounds insane, I’ve seriously never heard someone laugh like him.

[@Joescotterpuss]

"I'm the prince of Shoeburg. Idiot. I'm a prince."

[@thatbitankguy3207]

Lou commiting to Pinnochio being so dumb he throws away a nat 20 will forever be the funniest thing Lou has ever done

[@yupekosi413]

the fucking whiplash switching from ‘THIRD! NAT!! ONE!!!” to the most nonchalant “that’s a nat 20 :l” took me OUT

[@ZekromAndYugiAndDrago123]

Explains how Lou plays his characters to a tee. He'd much rather fuck up funnily then succeed boringly.

[@StealthMarmot_]

I think that sums up how Lou plays most of his characters. He THRIVES in failure.

[@ycsdramaqueen]

The second "HE TOLD ME HE WAS GOING TO SHIT IN MY MOOOUTH." absolutely kills me every time.

[@dylanduru1120]

Destroyed me

[@pericelsus]

"How could he say no to a fresh glizzy~!" Always sends me to the moon

[@DragoReborn7]

To be fair who could say no to a fresh glizzy

[@RussanoGreenstripe]

You have to love Lou's absolute commitment to the bit, no matter what

[@TheeSweetboy]

He's just the greatest at it!

[@Zelmel]

Lou's commitment to the Pinocchio voice for that entire season was bonkers. Like early on you could see everyone being like "hey, are you seriously going to do this?" and he HARD committed.

[@spenceduggs]

Lou does NOT seem like the kind of guy to half ass something, for better or for worse

[@tackyoptic]

SO glad he did, though. so many good moments because of that insane voice

[@lindsaymarriott2558]

No one commits to the bit harder than Lou Wilson

[@joshkorte9020]

"If I had 20 CON... could I (finally) eat light bulbs?" - Lou Wilson

[@Lucifersfursona]

If I got one nat 20 Could I get Gerard hot dogs

[@spenceduggs]

Hearing Lou say "Fresh Glizzy" in his Pinocchio voice rewired my brain chemistry for the better

[@TheeSweetboy]

I totally agree

[@redmanish]

I love that when Lou plays a low INT or WIS character, my man goes ALL IN.

[@itslexactually]

Amethar 🥺 he loves his family and he’s very hard to kill. What else do you need in a king

[@rottengrapes8605]

his commitment to the bit is truly inspiring. never have i seen someone willing to throw away a nat 20 for the funniest shit possible

[@funnyvalentinedidnothingwrong]

​@@rottengrapes8605I feel like being presented with a blatantly obvious box and stick trap is just too tempting of a bit to pass up no matter how well you roll.

[@definitelynotcaptainamerica]

The way Brennan kept saying "on a nat 20 perception" during that scene 😂

[@mwsnail]

Nah I'm sorry, I disagree. As a non-American, I can confirm he's an INTERnational treasure.

[@TheeSweetboy]

Hard agree

[@MaximumMatador]

This means Lou is finally safe from Nicholas Cage

[@Leemasterflex]

The Australian delegation concurs!!!

[@stephaniepotts8256]

Legally He's the king of Staten Island, so only they have him.

[@leachofsouls]

​​@@stephaniepotts8256 Listen he Played Kingston Brown , who was in many ways the King of New York, Lou at least gets that title by proxy

[@Sound_Escapism]

Pinocchio could have used mage hand to grab the hot dogs but Lou was so committed to the bit that he threw away a Nat 20

[@Lucifersfursona]

Somebody’s left this fishing line out here

[@windwaker105]

And we love him for that

[@hoodiesticks]

You gotta appreciate the character progression from everyone jumping up and yelling for Nat 20s in Fantasy High, to Neverafter where Lou just nonchalantly tosses them away for The Bit™.

[@daz211]

Lou trying to keep himself from laughing and playing it as if Fabian was trying to keep himself from sobbing is KILLING me

[@wewacian]

Everyone putting Lou on the spot to tell a wolf joke and then the SAME wolf joke killed me, I laughed so hard I got a migrane

[@ashleyjohnson9651]

honestly why did they bully him like that 😂😂 and then trying to make him tell a 2nd wolf joke they know damn well he dont got to Death itself 😭😭

[@Butterratbee]

@@ashleyjohnson9651bully him?

[@Immediately_]

I cannot remember the last time I laughed that hard. And the change in the joke from “how do wolves like to…” to “how do you like to…”. I mean the absolute confidence in telling someone else how they like to have sex is just incredible.

[@quinnlee-newbury9003]

3:42 "It's Grant Obrien?" absolutely kills me, one of the best jokes of the season

[@sydneywright550]

I need to see grants reaction to that's

[@bewaretheteddy436]

A lightspeed reaction if I've ever seen one

[@Symphing12]

Emily's reaction to that makes it so much better

[@BinarySecond]

Ally is always ready to throw Grant into a threshing machine

[@crazyscarecrow8136]

The best part is Brennan keeps talking and absolutely makes it sound more like Grant Obrien immediately

[@Snoozems]

The pirate incident is still, to this day, and i've watched/played A LOT of ttrpgs, my absolute favorite thing ever. Just the escalation of "nooo" from Lou while everyone is just taking the piss out of him is just *chefs kiss*

[@littleleakyleakythere]

It's my favorite moment in any actual play and it's so sad that I can't just show it to anyone because there's so much lead up to it.

[@thebettertee]

@@littleleakyleakytherei havent watched the run up yet and i was still laughing my head off

[@23Zakira]

I don't think any piece of media has made me laugh so hard as that episode.

[@lutilda]

It's so amazing! I especially love how he couldn't help but breaking with laughter which made the effect of Fabian crying harder. 😂😂

[@Lucifersfursona]

Gunnie talking to npcs is a fucking work of art “Now you’ve been granted advantage-“ “Would you like some pleasure-“ “A maple cake”

[@Lucifersfursona]

“It’s been like five days right I’m still a little boy” cool Brennan I’m going to go walk into the sun so I will be able to feel emotions other than fear Aww grant no. Too many hot dog

[@xenopyxis]

hey can i ask you a question? in a breaking news episode, erika was named Punky Jewster and i want to know if that was because of you (cause you comment in every d20 video i see and also is one of the most consistently funny commenters) or if you just named yourself after it?

[@DaveYognaut]

@@xenopyxis I think it was a play on "Punky Brewster" actually and it's just a coincidence that they've got the same name. *_Or_* that, like you said, *_this_* Punky Jewster was named after the Breaking News reference to the Punky Brewster reference.

[@Lucifersfursona]

@@xenopyxis the idea I could ever affect erika’s life is so beautiful and so much responsibility 😂 it’s from that episode. I think grant was the script writer for that breaking news, so it’s more of a bi disaster 🤝 bi disaster situation Thank you for enjoying my inability to ever shut up. Can’t do it. Didn’t agree with me.

[@Lucifersfursona]

@@DaveYognaut I learned Punky Brewster was a show from gen x KZbin comments that liked the show. I just really liked it on the breaking news episode. I’m a Jew. I’m punky. Just a silly little guy

[@eskenobi9792]

Pinocchio's whole conversation with Cinderella was transcendental. All the conversations in that ep were.

[@spenceduggs]

I've never felt so much second-hand embarrassment in my LIFE than I did watching that episode

[@isabellanesheiwat8]

Some banger Murph quotes: "Sorry about that, i just ripped ass" "Only thing that could take us out was a trip to the zoo"

[@dungeon_delvers]

The "oh mannnn" when being asked to joke to death, priceless

[@strangeworld9376]

As someone who’s never seen any of this, the whole deal of some guy struggling to tell the story of how last night some weird octopus guy came over and tried to eat his brain then killed all but 4 of his fathers followers and one of them threatening to shit in his mouth has caused me to taste blood from laughing so hard

[@sofielee4122]

its so worth watching, Brennan's ability to make you pivot from crying laughing to just straight fuckin crying is incredible

[@groofay]

That "Ball Rolls Up" clip is probably the hardest I've ever laughed at a D&D clip. Every single sentence was gold and sent everyone even further off kilter, once they'd realized how stupid what they had just said was.

[@elliottbarker1595]

25:28 Lou says he's "chasing the feeling", and his character is a wooden doll so is unable to receive any kind of inhibition from narcotics. So you could say he is quite literally "high on believing"

[@elliotchandler3749]

I'm gonna be honest Starstruck Odyssey was chaos personified and I loved every minute if it

[@Maria.Annette]

Starstruck Odyssey become an immediate comfort watch for me. The ball is always rolling up ❤

[@LargeMcBottoms]

Lou casually throwing away a Nat 20 is one of the greatest DnD moments ever.

[@Parker_DNDnerd]

Lou’s charismatic energy is such a joy to witness in genuinely everything he’s involved in

[@dungeon_delvers]

It will always be funny that Barry convinced Gunnie to bet at the casino, perfect comedy

[@Dracomancili]

36:28 Emily's face in this one frame at realizing murph has to roll with 500 credits on the line is just amazing

[@benpascoe8878]

We all need to appreciate that Siobhan saying “oof, jester?” is the absolute most wild response to that line

[@ryanthoms]

16:44 Lous tone on “nooo” was the most guilty sounding no I’ve EVER heard

[@blood-soup]

Beyond Lou just being an absolutely wonderful, record-breakingly hilarious and good and lovely person, his fashion sense is off the fuckin charts. I LOVE his style so much - the jewelry, the beautiful shirts/sweaters/fits, he’s just _GOT IT_ yknow?? Just an endless stream of cool ass jackets, BEAUUUUTIFUL earrings that are actually works of art, him workin turtlenecks like he invented them, layering perfectly paired items like it’s his jobbb, i just got to the episode in the Neverafter campaign where he’s died his locs teal and omg it’s fabulous. I just love it. I gotta go put his looks on a pinterest board or something. Lou, you’re cool as hell. Sorry if you see someone running around in accidentally worse combinations of all the coolest shirts and earrings you’ve worn on camera. And thanks a million for sharing your delightful, BRILLIANT self with the world. We’re lucky to have ya! Take care y’all, thank you Sir Sweetboy for this amazing compilation. What a world we’ve got, full of such incredible people (you included).

Imagine hero’s in stories missed as much as tabletop game characters like IM COMING TO SAVE YOU rolls below 10 for 6 rolls in a row missing everything probably somehow hitting an innocent somewhere far off

[@Levacque]

James Bond sits down at a baccarat table, ends up rolling 2s and 5s on deception and finds himself prisoner of the villain. A nat 1 on persuasion leads to the villain simply shooting Bond in the head instead of using his nice elaborate trap.

[@Lucifersfursona]

Unironically funnier, more interesting, and lowkey more historically accurate stories? Sign me up (One of my favorite dnd history stories is an army invading with like, 50 men and returning with 51. A guy just said fuck it take me with you. Also an ancient Chinese one where an army was deterred bc the city they were going to invade bluffed such a level of confidence (going outside and setting up tea, inviting the invading generals to sit with him) they assumed the city was prepared to level them all and bailed. The city was not remotely prepared to survive that invasion. They turned away an invasion with *_the power of whimsy.)_*

So, here's what happened. There was a Benjamin on the ship when another Benjamin came on board. So now there were Old Benjamin and Young Benjamin. Old Benjamin retired but Young Benjamin was still on the ship. Another Benjamin came on board but he was actually Young Benjamin from a similar situation on another ship, so he became Old Young Benjamin because he was older than the other Young Benjamin.
