MBMBaM - Texts from Dad

[@evilxeye]

travis really solidified his status as the Middle Child in this one

[@moonrat1955]

fuggy I am a middle child and I can confirm this is exactly how it is

[@goobitz4231]

fuggy yo I’m the 999th like haha

[@ezrat604]

can we address how quickly sent aside griffin eating raw shrimp was

[@timpaxew712]

Ezra Arlen I want the actual minutes of the others making fun of him they may have cut out

[@Dabednego]

Well we know now this wasn’t the first time Justin has made Griffin eat raw food inadvertently

[@tonimartinez320]

I just get the impression that at this point, Griffin is used to his older brothers completely ignoring him and moving on mid sentence

[@Sweetumskitty1789]

Channelle Thompson As the youngest in my family that’s how it works.

[@belindaluna2067]

Is that even weird? Isn't that what shrimp cocktail is? Just raw shrimp and sauce?

[@malfnction]

"our shared dad"

[@trannyfragrance]

Mal the communal daddy

[@battyrae1398]

you KNOW griffin edited out the bit where they all made fun of him for eating raw shrimp

[@cattbutt7758]

Pretty sure it was just a bit.

[@ghostification]

my favorite is travis sadly saying "dad doesnt text me"

[@FaultlineSurfer]

I need the 25 minutes of cut audio of Justin and Travis laughing at Griffin and mocking him for eating raw shrimp

[@enbybunny9940]

Wait is that actually what happened?

[@nickreynolds7352]

ok but griffin may have eaten raw shrimp from justins fridge and no ones mentioning it

[@LoverOfMuch]

I’m dying this is fantastic

[@Jukajobs]

maybe he edited out the part where his brothers made fun of him for it

[@squib9367]

Shrimp! HEAVEN! *NOW!*

[@firebirdheats]

Nick Reynolds "were those just raw shrimp i was eating out of your refrigerator?" ... "Did i tell you guys about my texts from dad?"

[@alisum4068]

griffin deffo edited out the part where his brother laughed at him for at least 10 minutes

[@geoix6655]

Hearing Justin completely unironically explain to his brothers what emojis are was the most surreal thing I've ever experienced

[@leaffinite2001]

Pretty sure its an old episode but it is a trip

[@Clovis_the_Cat]

Its so strange. You forget how old some of these episodes are when you're just listening back to them. Most of the comedy and discussion is pretty timeless but every once in a while you hear something that's downright archaic.

[@thebubblegumco87]

clint mcelroy is a gift

[@PizzaDinosaur]

"We finally got here, and Richard Gere can BLOW ME"

[@TheDude4077]

Y'all, Griffin ate raw shrimp out of his brother's fridge and thought it tasted FUCKING EXCELLENT

[@cattbutt7758]

Why is everyone thinking this is real?? Do yall not know how they do bits and oh you know? Goofs? On their comedy advice podcast? 🤭

[@Sage_the_Turt]

@@cattbutt7758 have you considered perhaps, that playing along with the joke is part of the fun? and that your sense of superiority is *not* fun?

[@strawberry_boicake]

why is this a crazy thing to anybody I eat raw shrimp all the time and it is good

[@emrysisscreaming3712]

"dad doesn't text me." jalsdfjlads ME TOO TRAV

[@ConSolo29]

he really is the middlest child

[@grayskysunshine9878]

God me too

[@RadNat]

Yeah I've never gotten a text from Clint :(

[@Sweetumskitty1789]

RadNat an accidental text from any of them would be WILD. 😂👌

[@FlyMeUpSoHigh]

"He just keeps texting me and calling me Travis Snow and I don't know why."

[@taylorrose8361]

imagine talking to your therapist and being like “i have so many emojis bottled up”

[@fandomshuzzah1907]

Some mbmbam bits are timeless, some have a three minute discussion of what this newfangled "emoji" technology is

[@kquinnvandevelde1384]

The arc of Justin talking about "these new things called emojis" in this episode and then his horrified review of the emoji movie is beautiful.

[@CakefoxDots]

'do you know what emojis are' 'no' KSKSKDKEMEJD i know its like 2011 but thinking that present day travis doesnt know what they are is so funny to me

[@plushs]

i can't be bothered to look up the actual time this episode came out but it was probably late 2012-2013 judging by the text timestamps

[@gwen6622]

i had to immediately listen to justin talking about watching the emoji movie after this just to feel normal again lmao

[@ellispedersen4192]

I love Clint so much

[@Vallnerik]

I feel like he was/is possibly the best father in the world.

[@felidthing]

in which travis was truly the middle child

[@stonebutch]

i could imagine this as merle sending letters to magnus & taako

[@peachbIossom]

i just want to thank you, ocean man, for putting this specific thought into my brain

[@emmagrace1812]

Magnus, sadly, as the others discuss letters they've received from Merle: "Merle doesn't send me letters"

[@maxttozer5037]

Magnus: opens mailbox, sees letter, "To Magnus Burnsides, From Merle Highchurch" Magnus: Aww, :), nice, I haven't spoken to Merle since he started extreme teen adventures! *happily opens letter* "Try ceviche. ~ Merle" Magnus: *visible confusion*

[@calliecilone9899]

I could imagine this as a letter from Argo to Fitzroy, seeing how much he likes limes😂

[@althelor]

Like they said in the finale, Merle complains about them not calling him, but they do call him regularly, he just doesn't know how to turn his stone of far speech off of silent mode.

[@Diana-tx2iz]

And that Emoji-explaining brother would take his daughter to see the movie of the same name

[@jjju3]

"explain to me about hashtags on Twitter"

[@phoenixfritzinger9185]

what is with the boys and shrimp

[@msesthheryisterair763]

SHRIMP. HEAVEN. NOW!

[@Galadriealsring]

Nice to know Moira from Overwatch is a MBMBaM fan.

[@sleatersan]

@@Galadriealsring I hadn't even noticed who had commented, and now I'm amusing myself reading that comment in her voice

[@megadestroyer454]

I wish I had a father to send me esoteric incomprehensible texts.

[@zander...k.7968]

This bit, along with the bit in the TV show where Clint describes him as "the difficult one," reallllly just paint Trav in the most tragic light

[@captaincalamity5025]

yeah, he really is the middlest brother

[@panisprettyrad]

“Dad doesn’t text me” IM CRYING

[@realhugtower]

Richard Gere can BLOW me gets me every time

[@dumbalek6001]

Clint's texts sound like yahoo questions

[@MissLexiMarie]

Watching this in 2017 after there was a damn Emoji Movie, I envy their naïveté

[@MC_Mega-Jessup]

I think maybe "don't have the tuna" was supposed to be a reference to the movie Airplane! ?

[@broodovermind]

hearing someone say, these new things called emojis, feels so surreal. it feels like they have always been here. emoticons warped my brain or somethign

[@partlyironic]

Hearing the McElroy’s discuss emojis like they are a nee thing is WILD

[@brothmirepoix]

this is great to listen to after the latest episode where they discuss the emoji movie at length

[@golemn114]

this video makes me feel so many emojis

[@gnome_official]

The emoji part aged ever so gracefully.

[@brooklyn9923]

i knew this was an old clip from the audio quality but i didnt realize it was "explaining what emojis are" old damn

[@Fiona-West]

Justin explaining what emojis are really dates this episode lmao

[@hedgeyhogs]

In case anyone is wondering-this is from Episode 119 (“Drop the Beat, Francis)

[@thatquietkid]

I remember that episode of Community, French was great in it, worth the text

[@nicklas7377]

Let’s not ignore that Griffin did not only eat raw shrimp from Justin’s refrigerator, no, he also described it as the best ceviche he ever had.

[@jellyfishneo]

This is a piece of history

[@jacquelinetirey6354]

Clint is an "emotional pace car."

[@leschaps2387]

That's the most old man description of emojis ever.

[@lydiah12]

The text for Andy Griffith was actually kind of cute.

[@vraisairs9201]

I love these boys, but I sometimes forget how old they are

[@isettophonfire]

This was 2011, Travis would have been 28 and Griffin would have been 25

[@samuelzisk5093]

I love Clint McElroy like I love my own father

[@queensalmon4905]

KZbin should allow for pictures to be in the comments cause I really wanna put the "WHAT YEAR IS THIS??" meme

[@raediant3307]

man im all up in my emojis rn

[@TalexTheLich]

the brothers talking about emojis and not knowing what they are ages them by like 10 years at least lol

[@catden007]

I mean this in episode is from like 2011 so emojis were kinda new

[@amydeklyen527]

Oh, Travvy

[@nuclearlo0ve]

My mom always tells me when celebs die too LMAO

[@lassoroot]

This was the first mbmbam clip I ever watched and for a LONG time I thought they were half brothers or something 🤣

[@hawke7471]

It took me 5 years, but I think I know what the "Tuna" is. Clint 'Madlad' McElroy got the Tuna for his in-flight meal, and thought it was necessary to warn his sons. NO ONE WOULD EVER GET THE TUNA, CLINT-

[@1elanor6]

when Justin almost called Clint “Mac”

[@sunshinepurple1043]

As a middle child I feel you Travis.

[@MsDefectiveToaster]

Last random text I got from my Dad was "Deep Throat died not too long ago." No idea what brought this on. Also, I'm fairly certain Deep Throat died like 13 years ago???

[@hopefullydrawinglives4212]

Clint why

[@davidellett9316]

Clint clearly went out to the new pizza place for his birthday.

[@Sweetumskitty1789]

Clint texts like my grandpa.

[@welchjuice8876]

Okay but listening to this four years later realizing how far emojis have come 🥰😩😌

[@noncorporealentity5641]

how old is this episode that emojis are new

[@lilyhope432]

sad dad squad It's from like 2011

[@eigenmishi_in_3d]

They're unironically discussing the unfamiliar new word "emoji"? How old is this?

[@panicsupreme]

Like 2011 or 2012

[@DimT670]

2012 they literally say it in the vid

[@musicalnerds101]

Lol it’s so funny to think that emojis didn’t used to be so popular like I barley remember that

[@markipliersego464]

Let's lower that bar to 14 cuz I don't get it either.

[@monroe7532]

was just listening to this bit and i came to this video to tell you that at 3:25 i was drinking water and now i am a person who did a genuine real life spit take

[@panisprettyrad]

2:07 that’s my BIRTHDAY wh

[@mosesfox52]

thank goodness this was four years ago. Idk what i'd do if they were just learning what emojis are.

[@TalexTheLich]

Oh my god.... guys? Clint is human yahoo

When the heck did this come out that emojis arnt like, a thing

[@swordswaltzing]

Is this just a thing that all fathers do because my dad does as well

[@transrights7273]

What episode is this from??

[@transrights7273]

I FOUND IT IT’S 119

[@PilferedRose]

I think it’s wild they, in 2016, didn’t know what emojis were.

[@PenguinLord10]

It's just this video that was uploaded in 2016, the audio is older. I don't remember which episode it's from but Justin mentions that he's 31, and he's currently 38, so this was probably from 2012 or so. ...That said, people have been known to lie about their age, and Justin *did* steal that copy of fight club...

[@PilferedRose]

PenguinLord10 oh makes sense

[@jerrybaker8597]

I love how he goes thanks for making cevicha. I never did that. Did i just eat raw shrimp from your fridge. So he was stealing the other guys shrimp and the dude says nothing

[@PidgeonRat]

Try covfefe

[@keaton5101]

its been 2 months and that comment is already so incredibly dated, imagine the people who read this in 1 year and its absolute nonsense

[@Tazzyfluf]

Keaton I forgot that covfefe was a thing...

[@Nealrex101]

Keaton yeah I can confirm, a lil weird

[@AngoAngo]

PidgeonRat I dunno I still found it funny a year later

[@PenguinLord10]

@@keaton5101 ...Welp. It's a year later and I get it. It's not particularly funny or clever, but I still I get it.

[@paulinie4431]

Emojis annoy the hell out of me. I don't reply to my friends who insist on using excessive emojis or can't handle that I don't use them at all

[@ceilingeye]

Pauline ohmyself I hate them too. The only time I use it is when its a joke, or if I have literally nothing to say

[@paulinie4431]

Arrogant Anarchist do you ever get people who assume you're angry of upset because you're not using emojis?

[@lancevoltron3585]

Why 😮😮😮😮 🤤🤤🤤😯😯

Lance Voltron because they are totally unnecessary and make you look like a stupid child.
