My 23andme and You

Learn about me through my DNA
Also some stats about you guys
Genetic test done by 23andme www.23andme.com , not a sponsor. It's a bit expensive. I don't know if I would recommend it unless if you wanted to know about a disease and it was approved by doctors/health boards. If you get the test and doctors don't trust it it might be a waste of money. Also it may not be trustworthy.
Foot Notes
Regarding soap
Soap makes hair puffy. Makes skin itchy and dry. But without soap... nothing bad happens.
When I get smelly pits, I find it's how hard I rub that makes the smell go away and stay away. Not how much soap I use.
I think there's oils on skin that dirt can stick to so soap should make cleaning easier. And scents can just make any smells covered up. But for me soap seems to have more negatives than positives.
Still use soap on my hands though. I wash my hands a lot.

[@beans2939]

your voice is so soothing.

[@ChocoMatt2]

Mesmerizing also

[@Kafiristanica]

So many youtubers are loud. I like This Place's volume level.

[@rxscience9214]

This is easily the weirdest way of learning about someone.

[@MrAntieMatter]

That no soap part of the video though.

[@Stilllife1999]

Oh gawd

[@Jona69]

If you think about it it's quite natural. We've only really had soap in the last couple hundred years.

[@Fatortu]

Couple thousands, the Celts invented it. It's really easy to make and really useful if your work is especially dirty.

[@RageSaul]

why doesn't he use it man

[@MitchellPozar]

I don't either for my hair. My hair is exactly as it was when I was using shampoo, if not better. After a while of going without, your scalp's natural oils compensate.

[@seblund]

"So reindeer folk" Lol

[@dillon5906]

I learn in words. I also think in words, as if there's captions for my every thought. If you were wondering, i think in Arial 12pt Black text on a White background

[@DaKnightsofawesome]

I think in Morgan Freeman's voice. and the font is 24 pt comic sans ms in assorted bright colors.

[@markkeilys]

I don't think in any of the commonly said things, or in all as the situation deems necessary. it's just nothingness and then: "oh that's a good ideal", "Why am i doing this?", the answer to a question, or I "see" what i'm trying to think about in 3D space, equations as 3D text overlaid on what I'm looking at..

[@woodfur00]

My thoughts are fairly tactile, I think. Not exactly dependent on the sensation of touch, but very much on the perception of form. I guess I think in shapes. It's really fascinating to hear about other people's perception of the world, too.

[@DaKnightsofawesome]

+Chandler Gloyd scratch that it's actually 4chan green text

[@gamefoun]

i think in words, when I was smaller my thinking was basically talking to an audience, I have stopped doing that, now I just think in words and talk to myself in head, I can "see" things I imagine but not really see, I know what it looks like but not generate the picture of it in my head

[@Goldenheart_345]

Fe-male = Iron-man... ...us Fe-males are Iron-men

[@bewser]

This comment is very under-rated.

[@MrAlvarogame]

Oh, I am so glad you are going to be here full time :) You are truly awesome

[@MrAlvarogame]

Also, how could I help with the translations? I'd be quite interested in helping

[@ThisPlaceChannel]

KZbin has a thing where you can submit translations for videos now and we pass off on them. It doesn't keep a log of who submitted them though and it doesn't give credit. I wish it did so translators can learn to translate better if people discover mistakes, so mistakes can be fixed, and so I can give credit/money to people who take the time to do that. Translations aren't something I've thought a lot about but I want to make that easier and give some sort of incentive. I think I want to approach KZbin to see if they can further change their tools to make facilitate stuff like that.

[@arturmizuno]

I once went on it, but I couldn't select the videos to translate, so it was only minecraft. Anyway, does anyone have a link? I don't remember how to get there.

[@ShoobydoobydooYT]

I don't know why but I really enjoy listening to you talk?

[@ofthehunt4243]

i do to, i think because he just talks like a person, takes pauses and leaves in his "um"s and trail offs

[@ShoobydoobydooYT]

Yeah that would make sense.

[@katoyukimaru]

[@Jaur-jaur]

I love how funny and stream-of-consciousness and casual you are! You're so entertaining and educational! Also your drawings and stuff are just massively delightful! And the SOUND EFFECTS! A million stars!

[@mynamejake]

That's great news, I hope you have wild success with ThisPlace!! I look forward to watching all your videos over and over.

[@SokiHime]

Your voice is so relaxing to listen to; I love listening to you while doing something super chill in MMOs

[@NurbedUp]

WOOOO YES! THIS IS GOING ON MY PLAYLIST! THANK YOU FOR ANOTHER RELEASE!

[@RealTwistedTwin]

this is why i love your channel ^^ you are so unique in the things you do and you have a way to make everything exciting and interesting, for example this introduction video. also I hope you make it on youtube. I always had faith in this channel and will support you as much as i can. that said, pls promise to never rush out videos which could be better and to keep your style as interesting and awesome as it was until now

[@BLNChrisCross]

Maple Syrup Urin Disaease ... thats no a disease ... thats like a superpower ... ohh ... death in newborns ... Thats a quick transition ^^ And the weird thing was right when he said "Maple Syrup Urin Disaease" i was like, can't process Valin, Leucin and Isoleucin! Got that Point in the exam :D

[@hotdog2841]

Why is it called that?

[@dartacao97]

My guess is that it makes your urine really thick, maybe sweet? Just a guess I can't be bothered to check the veracity of.

[@mckenziegoetz7422]

An affected infant's urine is sweet smelling- at least that's what wikipedia says.

[@cpfink1242]

I'm so excited that you're making more videos! I really think you've got some of the best content in the educational KZbin community.

[@helpee]

Yes! more videos! I love This Place. Missed your videos.

[@p07a]

Wooh! Glad to hear you're back full time.

[@maikimin1899]

I LOVE THIS CHANNEL AND YOUR VOICE SO MUCH

[@anaamaro6103]

"Two stars? That's not enough confidence." Is there ever enough confidence?

[@Evan-hs8go]

This video was so relaxing, and then I started laughing hysterically at the end because of its abruptness.

[@RainManRises]

I just subscribed. I love your videos. You are smart and videos explains a lot. I hope you keep making videos and have a lot more subscribers.

[@imsorry4631]

Happy 100k subscribers!!

[@giraffatitan9366]

Really love you and your content, thank you so much

[@JacobShepley]

yay you're going full time. I love your videos.

[@Isaac-iu6bx]

i totally understand what you mean about words. They're handy to know, but i really appreciate your videos for being about simple cause-and-effect relationships, and laying out the big picture. if i understand that, the words stick much better.

[@ethankrise1772]

Jesse I like seeing and hearing these things about a KZbinr who I enjoy listening to

[@katemorris3711]

I love his voice...and his channel in general :)

[@fingerboarding007bond]

Keep up the good work! Love your videos :)

[@Logistikon11]

I really like that you don't necessarily use terms but just explain things using plain language. I think it helps communicate a raw idea without muddling it.

[@origamigek]

Surprisingly fun, much more interesting than a normal introduction.

[@thickcheeks9603]

you clearly redefine what it is to have no filter. I also get trouble sleeping for the same reason as you

[@WarLarkGamer]

I really enjoyed this video, it was entertaining!

[@Ellie_fi]

enjoyed this video :)excited for more!

[@_bender4143]

I love your videos!

[@upperjeans1667]

I really liked this video!

[@00Linares00]

We need more videos from you

[@loul8886]

Hi Jesse! Glad to hear your voice! May we meet again!!

[@ThisPlaceChannel]

Hey Lou, good to read your words. yes that would make my life complete

[@hannahb6249]

This is great! It comes off as so off the cuff and yet you still sound really intelligent and its still very informative. :) Thanks for this :) ... though now I want to see what my DNA says about me... xD

[@komolunanole8697]

I really like your videos. Keep up the good work. You are different. I think its because you speak much faster than the average youtuber, but that fine. I kinda like that. Also, I really like that you want to go fulltime-yt. looking forward to some great content XP

[@LucasAlves-hi2kx]

You're almost at 100k man :D

[@MinecraftTestSquad]

He is now :)

[@BarnibusMaximusMusic]

This video is just amazing. I found it so funny xD

[@geometromancer6159]

I can relate to you being not able to sleep because you start thinking about every single social mistake you made since you were five. Is this a bad thing?

[@ofthehunt4243]

the mistakes are terrible, staying awake about them is completely justified. What if you see that kid whos crayon you stole in 5th grade?

[@SgtLion]

God. Why was I so oblivious as to bring up the topic of favourite dinner in that one conversation about Egyptians? Even though I suffered no consequences to my remembrance, 7 year old me will never forgive me.

[@SogMosee]

Cant wait for gene splicing

[@2joshua123]

Did anyone else get a 23 and me ad before this? First time I didn't skip a ad in a while scary

[@headness13]

Big like for the video... dunno why. I guess I like the honesty.

[@philip7319]

Regular uploads on This Place?! HYPE.

[@The-Rest-of-Us]

Now I have a vivid mental image of your face.

[@memawandpatrick2710]

New subscriber watching this :)

[@Raker109]

god i love your voice

[@idahagglund524]

06:40 You just summed up my anxiety in 3 seconds.

[@portentouslad5051]

I did not expect this to be so entertaining. Especially because I hated stream of conciousness in class.

[@portentouslad5051]

oh and the Neandertal valley is in Germany, near where I live. In German we have no "th" /θ/ sounds so we pronounce it Neandertal /niˈændərˌtɑːl/ but since it's an English word too, Neanderthal /niˈændərˌθɔːl/ is fine. quote from wikipedia: " German does not have any dental fricatives (as English th). The th sounds, which the English language still has, disappeared on the continent in German with the consonant shifts between the 8th and the 10th centuries.[74] It is sometimes possible to find parallels between English and German by replacing the English th with d in German: "Thank" → in German Dank, "this" and "that" → dies and das, "thou" (old 2nd person singular pronoun) → du, "think" → denken, "thirsty" → durstig and many other examples. Likewise, the gh in Germanic English words, pronounced in several different ways in modern English (as an f, or not at all), can often be linked to German ch: "to laugh" → lachen, "through" and "thorough" → durch, "high" → hoch, "naught" → nichts, "light" → leicht or Licht, "sight" → Sicht, "daughter" → Tochter, "neighbour" → Nachbar." FYI B)

[@victortrns4910]

I liked this type of video

[@CMZneu]

I have a question, do you study something or is all the material in your videos from extensive research because its pretty accurate good job!

[@mikewilliams6025]

Seriously so funny! What's your process? Do you write scripts or is most of your stuff animated to off the cuff jibberdy-jabbers? Do you animate first and then record? Inquiring minds must know!

[@MooImABunny]

okay so I'm not done watching the video, the idea of the video is totally awesome, but I had to stop and comment that you replacing "vicious loop" with "vicious positive feed-back loop" made me crack XD

[@LizzySimba]

I have the same type of hair as you. When I go swimming or something and my hair gets wet without using shampoo, it's pretty wavy/curly. But if I use shampoo it's a lot less wavy/curly.

[@AaronKlapheck]

VOX did a really good explanation of Asian red face recently. Would recommend.

[@siamiam]

excellent video :) im just a thai/german (thaiger) mixed guy from alaska

[@QuixoticEntropy]

"They just look at me like I'm an asshole" Hahahaha I love all the candid commentary here.

[@Deathnotefan97]

I am interested in doing this, but I don't want my data sold (or at least, I'd want a comprehensive list of who they would sell my data too before I start so I can make an informed decision) Is here a way to just pay them extra so they can make their profit without selling my data? I'd be willing to do that

[@astrowuff]

Well I just bought it, they are having an amazon prime day deal

[@MrCaretCaret]

that was fun

[@koalagirl3]

not trying to be creepy but your voice is really relaxing

[@Microsizeme]

As to the asparagus pee thing, I think they've done studies and it seems to be both an ability to smell the enzyme and an ability to produce the enzyme.

[@PluTV]

With just your voice, you can achieve a good youtube career :D

[@jadedsentiments7510]

It may have been triggered only by his name, but is anyone else reminded of Jesse Eisenburg by his voice? It's so incredibly calming. Great content as well.

[@NielsvanZon]

More video's?! Sweeeet :D

[@Sprzina]

2 videos this month? Upload spree!

[@krillissue]

You seem like a great conversationalist, by the way you sound.

[@tabryis]

wows. nice on over coming alcoholism, and abstaining. i chose to stay away from alchol not only for it's obviously pronounced effect on a person, but because after drinking once and getting somewhat buzzed i realized why my father drinks and why his father and whole family drank. so, yea. similar story with opiates once i broke my clavicle

[@tabryis]

also, why no soap?

[@ThisPlaceChannel]

Makes hair puffy. Makes skin itchy and dry. But without soap... nothing bad happens. When I get smelly pits, I find it's how hard I rub that makes the smell go away and stay away. Not how much soap I use. I think there's oils on skin that dirt can stick to so soap should make cleaning easier. But for me it seems to have more negatives than positives. Still use soap on my hands though. I wash my hands a lot. (Edited for spelling)

[@sephyrias883]

I like how the origin percentage says "100% Jesse Agar" 6:40 oh I know that feel...

[@TheWhitePianoKeyProductions]

I wonder how you'll be able to do this full time with 500K views per month, good luck!

[@bozhil4o]

I love this channel. Side note - Am I the only one who thinks he sounds like a calmer version of Lex Luthor in the new Batman vs Superman ? Yes ... no? Ok.

[@adamgryu]

You don't happen to have a brother that does game development? If so, I've worked with him before and he's a cool guy. Nice videos, I really like your channel!

[@erhagman]

I like this I like this place

[@Esen99153]

Your voice is like velvet.

[@upperjeans1667]

I believe MinuteEarth made a video about asparagus urine.

[@jackkennedy98]

So would you recommend this programme overall? Worth your money?

[@ThisPlaceChannel]

I don't know. It's kind of expensive to mostly learn stuff you already know about yourself.

[@jackkennedy98]

+Kayden Gill What's that?

[@traci7721]

I learned a lot about my family that I didn't know before. You are able to connect with so many people, and learn so much.

I can do translations in German if you are interested, I'd be happy to.

[@HavocDemon]

Hey Jesse how did you come up with the name for your KZbin channel?

[@ThisPlaceChannel]

It's sufficiently ambiguous that I felt I could make videos about almost anything and not break people's expectations

[@HavocDemon]

+This Place Cool, thank you for answering my question.
