Missed you guys! Sorry for being absent the past couple weeks! There's been a lot going on, plus editing my Make Happy reaction took longer than expected... But here's some Oversimplified goodness!

Please come back if you're willing, healthy, generally ready, and if it's good for you to do so. We miss you!

[@alexs_dad]

Hey Alice, I hope your wedding went well and life's also going well for you and your family. You have lovely energy, and whether you'll come back or not I hope you're still bringing that energy out into the world!

[@mahadaalvi]

The foreshadowing is insane too. Notice how the emus just bust right through the farmer's fence in the beginning. That should’ve been the clear indication on what needed to be fixed but no one knew how to conduct logical thinking back in those days 😂💁🏻‍♂️

[@armanii4005]

Who else misses her ??

[@JW666]

I do...

[@jdnskipper-vj4rm]

mee as well...

[@matej9368]

Where is she?

[@jdnskipper-vj4rm]

makin babies

[@lanmandragoran8337]

Hoping you come back soon, you've been missed.

[@rich3371]

So I used to go backpackin when I was younger & ran into bears 3 different times- each one just ignored me. A moose on the other hand I wouldnt go near. They're the most dangerous animal in America

[@chriswhinery925]

Yeah bears mostly don't want anything to do with people, we're too large for them to see us as an easy meal so unless they're starving or they have cubs nearby they mostly just ignore us. Except polar bears. Polar bears are TOTAL assholes, so if you're in the frozen north and see one of them, better have a gun with you or kiss your ass goodbye.

[@mortenrollsen271]

I miss you. Where are you? I reeeeeeeally miss you.

[@potitishogun2961997]

Holy cow, this war is a crazy page of history to learn about in school xD ... Lemme guess... No history book mentions this embarrassing story, do they... x'D

[@kingseb2252]

Nope i wish im Australian and i only heard about this from oversimplified

[@_Glass-_-House_]

Lovely video Alice I thought to send a comment from 2023 wishing you the very best with life. I understand Australia's housing crisis and other such madness is running more rampant than emus or KZbin's anti-monetization practices. Regardless I do hope your wedding went well and I wanted to let you know that if you do ever find time within the choas to make more videos rest assured that your subscribers are here for you and will be here to push that thumb up button next upload. That being said we will always be here so take all the time you need and if you never do come back I wanted to say thank you for the moments of laughter, joy, and silliness your reactions brought about this world. You are a legend from down under and I wish you all the best whereever life's madness or austriallian emus may take you. Oh and if you are wanting a good musician to get into as you settle into your days thought to mention Ren Gill a brilliant barmy bard from Brighton that has been blowing up as of late. Here is a link if you would like some amazement throughout your day as you have given us all here so much from your own videos. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZDRlGR_i9SArsU

No cap, I came here to see if she did some Ren reactions only to notice she's been MIA for a few months :( Hope she's doing well!

[@violincredible]

[@patrickwentz8413]

Sorry to hear about this terrible war. I heard you lost a lot of good men out there.

[@CarlosDesmithy]

The Emu's lost more 😢. And they were only trying to feed their families. 😭

[@wandering_guy]

Hope u are all right. Looking forward to hearing an update

[@Teeklin]

Hope you come back at some point! Even if not, hope you're doing well and are having a great life!

[@GothamsHer0]

I've known about the emu war forever and I tease my Australian gamer friend about it all the time! 🤣🤣

[@sawdustcrusader2239]

Just discovered your channel, I hope you upload again soon! Very interesting commentary and high energy, great videos!

[@shibboleth5768]

As an American who lives and camps in the American West where the Grizzly Bears, Black Bears, Moose, Wolves and Mountain Lions roam, I'll tell you why Australia is scarier. We never have to shake our sleeping bags to see if a bull moose is sleeping inside it. Wolves dont jump out of trees at us like those crazy spiders do. You will never find a Grizzly Bear curled up in our toilet bowls at our most vulnerable moments. The animals here in America are less scary because they all in general tend to be big enough to see coming and for us to use our guns to stop them. You guys have funnel web spiders, giant centipedes, the brown snake and EMU'S. I mean the only bird that causes death in America is the chicken and thats cause we fry it and eat too much of it. haha!

[@thegoodvillain777]

Even the flora is scary in Australia. We may keep an eye out for poison ivy and thorn bushes and such, but Australia has suicide plants...need I say more.

[@nicholasshepherd7112]

Just discovered your channel to see your most recent video was put out months ago. You’re so charming and your smile in contagious. I hope you return soon with another video.

@@Sizzlik you made me worry for a bit there... I found her in a picture on instagram from december 2023, just for the peace of mind of others who might worry.

Yay your back we need more oversimplified lol love your vids

What happened to Alice?? Miss seeing her reactions to stuff

Bless you Alice, I did wonder where you’d gone…look after yourself kiddo. You remind me of my daughter, she’s my best mate. Understand the stress…been their done all that x2 me and missus near enough done all of madams wedding! We’ll still be here when you’re doing the life stuff. Take care ✌🏻& ❤

[@colinfraser7150]

This was so much fun to watch.

[@richlisola1]

Don’t forget Mountain Lions and Wolves! We got them too in 🇺🇸

[@jdnexited]

Day 1 of asking Alice to return

[@NoiseFetishist]

"America has bears, giant moose..." Alice, Y'ALL HAVE SALTWATER CROCS!!!

[@goatkiller666]

So in the American plains states, there are a lot of prairie dogs, who dig holes all over. Cattle will step in the holes, break a leg, and then die. So the ranchers will hire paramilitary snipers to set up and snipe the prairie dogs. It’s not government snipers, but it’s similar.

[@Harv72b]

"Could you imagine that, you're in the military and they're just like 'We've got a mission for you,' and you have to go shoot a bunch of emus?" Former US soldier here. I spent 3.5 years stationed in the middle of the California Desert. At one point they had all the soldiers in our battalion go out, pick up all the rocks around the base, and load them into huge trucks so they could be hauled off post...only to replace them with an equal number of truckloads of _different_ rocks. Shooting emus would've been a nice change. 😂

[@chrisallen3388]

Ive recently discovered your channel and I love it. Your energy is fantastic and infectious. I also love how you will fact check something if you're not sure, I assume you are now married so congrats on that, hope its happily ever after. Thanks for keeping me entertained whilst H3 is on break(I've caught the references a couple of times so i reckon you watch their podcast too!) Hope to see some more new content from you soon 🤞😁

[@Arioezt]

we miss you :( stay safe and a happy 2024!

[@JoshyWins]

Meanwhile, the most dangerous animal in England are cows 😅

[@volundrfrey896]

We have a lot of moose here in Sweden, they're essentially somewhere between horses and cows. Only dangerous is you put them in a stressful situation. Lovely animals, you'd struggle to be killed by one. The scary thing about Australian wild life is that a lot of them are so small. I'd never know if a poisonous spider was hiding in my bedroom, but I'd know if there was a moose in there.

[@lashedsuns4529]

No wild emus to my knowledge here in the US, but my neighbor has 2… definitely terrifying.

[@snowensville]

Miss your videos

[@BlessedWithLuck]

I hope I get to see you make it to his recent videos with the First Punic wars tbh.

[@BillTheScribe]

I got stalked by one at the zoo. It was a park-like area and it was raining so hard there wasn't another person in sight. We both escaped unharmed, and the full story is long and much better live, but the moral is "Never trust any creature that can fit it's entire brain in it's mouth." See also: moose.

[@goatkiller666]

FYI - nerds say the plural of moose is ‘meese’.

[@biosec9361]

Man I just had one of your Tim Minchin reactions recommended after not watching for a while. I didn't realize it had been a year since you uploaded. Hope you're doing OK!

[@siindree]

would be really fun to see your reaction to some other fun tunes Alice! I would recommend two tracks from Nanowar of steel, Valhalleluja and Norwegian Reggaeton! If you do them, turn the youtube subs on for Norwegian Reggaeton

[@nuggie4huggie23pp]

If I’m not mistaken, as someone who lives in Minnesota, I think moose are declining rapidly in numbers.

[@BlackHeartGames]

Oh Australians. Never change, please.

[@fakedracula9849]

I was a Patron of hers for a hot minute, just really wanted to see that Bo Burnham reaction content. She hasn't posted any updates on there, at least not since I unsubbed. My headcannon is that she saw Inside, and had a profoundly existentialist reaction that she just up and gave up on reaction content. I don't think it's ever coming. The experience could have been too vulnerable, too extreme, too invasive. Oh well. It was nice while it lasted.

[@_Glass-_-House_]

To be fair the world is not in the best sorts as of late Australia's housing crisis alone is rather quite bodgie and she did have a wedding. I'm certain she will need support now more than ever it's only a matter of time when she'll be back though I bet.... I hope.

[@BillTheScribe]

All Moose are referred to in the plural because no single moose is small enough to be referred to as singular.

[@SuperNovaKat64]

eh, Moose are pretty chill. They're pretty blind and as long as you don't mess with them, they will leave you alone. If you need to get away from a moose, just move out of it's way and hide behind a tree. As stated before, they are pretty blind, and also they don't turn well.

[@White0523]

Fun reaction, How about some more Australian, have you heard of a music band called "Sabaton" they making war related songs, and i thought maybe this song would catch your eyes. The song is "Sabaton - Ballad of bull" a story about a Australian man who doing heroic deeds in a war. Check it out if it sounds interesting.

[@TheAussieGunBunny]

To be fair... I had never heard of the emu war before enlisting.

[@WeirdGuy4928]

Are you ok?

Emus aren't dangerous. Cassowaries on the other hand...

[@samuelgardner2653]

I feel like you might vibe with Epic Rap Battles of History

[@zacball40]

It’s crazy that actually happened and that the military lost. Good thing it only happened once would be sad if the same thing happened twice with the same outcome. Wink wink lol

[@Nyghtreaver]

maachine guns before better fences,,, as an american i can sounds right LOL

[@yoyo777]

It shood be mees like gees

[@canadianicedragon2412]

Moose is like goose, the plural of goose is geese, so moose is meese. Not really. I will say in North America there are dangerous animals... but most of them a LARGE ... a moose for example is roughly 2m tall 2.5-3m long and mass around 500kg... they don't usually sneak up on you. A spider, or snake ... are born to sneak. And Crocs come at you under water... often. These days "emu" now makes me think Emmanuel the emu... google it if you're not sure what I mean? That said, oddly I have heard of the Emu War before. But loved the original and your react.

[@alexs_dad]

Oh and if you do come back I'm petitioning for 6:39 to be your new channel banner.

[@empirejeff]

Well

[@hellsbunniestv584]

So sad you're not doing content, anymore. I hope you're doing OK. :)

[@echo4428]

America has a lotta big scary animals like bears, wolves, moose, mountain lions, etc. But they're furry and therefore we think they're cute.

[@joachimkylhammar5084]

perhaps you would like to react to The Animated History of Sweden by Suibhne fyi i am Swedish

Day 12 of asking Alice to return

[@marexx62]

she so gud 🎉

[@kevinnodine6266]

My only argument to American wild animals being big and scary, I agree. That's why I avoid going into the wild. Lol. Yall get small, venomous, scary animals. I feel I could run from a bear. A venomous spider lands on my arm and bites me, doesn't matter how far I run. Haha. Still great video though.

[@RyanRichardsToby]

No shade, just fun: Based on your library of books I'm guessing that you're 1. Into self-help books 2. Positive thinking. I see Rich Dad Poor Dad, You are a Badass, Start with Why, Dare to Lead, On Fire: The 7 Choices to Ignite a Radically Inspired Life, The Power of your Subconscious Mind, and it's blurry, but the last readable title seems to be the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. I can't read anything but "7", but I'm thinking that I'm right. Admit it: You thought I was only looking at your pretty face! One of the best and most acclaimed self help books of all time is by Dale Carnegie: How to Win Friends and Influence People. Also: Chicken Soup for the Soul belongs in that stack behind you.

[@P4nDA_pls]

Oi get sleep. Why are you losing sleep to entertain us? Your own health should be your top priority.

Hey Alice, I enjoy your reactions. Have you ever watched Gimme Gimme Gimme? It a ginger bird (Kathy Burke) and her gay flat mate! You will cry laughing! A few Americans are doing them and getting 150+k views…get in on it. 👩‍🦰
