What if, on April Fool's Day, they made a regular video, but they switched seats

[@dizzydamyratv4717]

Mega Golurk omg that would be the worst........the again it was that way back in the old gmm days

[@sarahere7560]

Mega Golurk unfortunately, April fools is on a Saturday this year😔

[@Nyah420]

I *SO* want them to switch seats for one episode! If only to read the reactions of those people that go crazy whenever something changes. xD Have they never, in all these years, switched seats for an episode? If you know of one, please do tell.

[@lukemcevoy5371]

Mega Golurk YES

[@user-uf2mn1qc6y]

They switched seats a long time ago in a Halloween story telling episode. They wore a two-person suit and couldn't have fit if they sat like they normally do.

[@LiveLaugh5gLee]

Their "dad" is showing a lot today. I love it. And I am surprised they expected so many of us to not know the Brady Bunch theme...

[@dapperlittlewren1722]

I'm 13 and I sang the whole thing perfectly from memory along with them.

[@amydue5647]

Halle Gordon I love the Brady Bunch, but I only saw it a little bit ago

I'm 9 and I know The Brady Bunch and Full House themes from heart.

[@mleavelle1590]

Boy, the beginning of this aged so well 😂

[@ashleybrewer8446]

The mental image of teenage smart aleck Link with chipmunk cheeks getting smacked in the face is pretty great. Thank you for that.

[@VirgoGoddess90]

Ashley Brewer the one thing more satisfying is picturing him sitting there with a gigantic red hand print on his face, just stunned.

[@jonhohensee3258]

Ashley - Do you have something against Link?

[@wjr4700]

@@jonhohensee3258 abuse against men by women is celebrated sadly.

[@TheChaosVariant]

See, when I was a kid, there were places to hang out and it was okay for a bunch of teens to hang out. Now they're cutting down on safe places for teens, or it's places not appropriate for teens (restaurants, libraries, etc). The only option is online apps now.

[@rdizzy1]

Used to just go in the woods and drink and smoke green, personally, this was in about the late 80s-early 90's, for me.

[@MrWereWolfGirl]

I remember when I was a teen - I didn't drink but I did go with a few of my friends to "hang out and drink beer" a few times- manly to be that one sober person that watches over the group - we are kinda lucky in that regard in a way- you see there was a war raging over this place and there are still old bunkers left scattered around here, rural place - and nobody cares about those bunkers in the forest so they are one of the only hangouts for teens over here because we used to be able to go to the river and around a factory that is closed at the night but I don't think that people can go there nowadays, you can still hang out around those bunkers I am pretty sure- that is if you are brave enough to go through forest to get to them.

[@SuchADumbUsername]

We used to go to the mall. Do kids still do that?

[@TheDragiix3]

What's wrong with cafés? Maybe that's just a very Austrian thing but you can just go there, have coffee and cake, read some newspapers for free. What's wrong with libraries and restaurants?

[@loiteringspy8063]

TheDragiix3 Cafe's are not a place for kids in the US really. Adults would probably complain if there were kids making any sort of disturbance. Same with restaurants, and libraries just aren't that fun anymore unfortunately

[@MrsPunkella]

"It was beautiful" yet another sign these two really are best friends forever :D

[@beautifulneverending]

I love the face Link makes when he knows he just failed at making what was already a terrible joke. The head shake with the open mouth really got me. Haha.

[@littleredhairedgirlsteph3922]

"I'm teachin' Lily the grasp n slap right now."

[@stephaniecunningham9680]

I'm not at all surprised that Link was a smart aleck but I would love to know what he said that got him slapped in the face.

I don't know about you, but I sang along, and I'm only 23. I've always watched older shows. My favorite channel was Boomerang as a kid, and now it's TV Land.

[@Elvirabg]

MegaMinerd omfg yessss I miss boomerang

[@MegaMinerd]

Did you change providers or packages or something? It's still around.

[@samiasayed3979]

MegaMinerd. I'm 12 and I watched boomerang until I was about 7 or 8. I switched packages though so that's why I stopped.

[@lukemcevoy5371]

MegaMinerd i love that channel! flintstones and the old Scooby doo are the best!

MegaMinerd right im 26. i was like wtf. i knew about the brady bunch since i was a kid. used to love the show

[@sumayamh5596]

How does Link get himself in these situations? He's such a dork! But you know what i bet he's really fun to hang out with! Besides that's the Link we all love.

[@angeldust3512]

I loved all the oldies I live for em! Stuff like I Love Lucy, Three's Company, Andy Griffith Show, The Munsters, Leave it to beaver, All in the family, Alf, Laverne & Shirley, etc. ❤

[@jw5386]

Alex Apparently I Love Lucy is the best.

[@allybc]

I'm 25, but I grew up on classic TV and Link's Pat Buttram imitation killed me. XD

[@kmjc1213]

Everyone in the comments is actually talking about the episode, and I'm just sat here like, how does Link still own that shirt?

[@perfass]

I love it when you tell stories about your life please do it more often!

Link: the thing that hurt the most was my pride of course, i have not recovered. 😂😂

when not at work you guys should use that app for an hour and just go about your day and post it online. love the show, keep up the great work.

[@bobbysmith2526]

most kids don't know how to make a collect call...because there are not many actual payphones around anywhere anymore.

I used to make collect calls all the time as a kid (back in the 90's), to call my mom.. Those phones always had an unbearably strong smell of spit and filth. X( Nasty... so unhygienic

[@cassiepage640]

When you have normal tv in Australia all throughout the day is literally just re-runs of old tv shows. I have seen all eps of the brady bunch, friends, the a-team, diagnosis murder, all she wrote, charlies angels, knightrider, baywatch, etc. I am 21 and I will always enjoy the classics

[@Syphian]

Links old man voice from Green Acres sounded like Lewis' voice he does in the new Farming Simulator, with Sips and Pyrion.

[@FangirlRandomscrew]

Also, video chatting is more convenient. A lot of parents don't let their kids hang out with their friends, or they have tons of homework so we can't. So if we both are done for 30-60 minutes, we might video chat.

does anyone else think mike is lookin mighty fine w/o that beanie all the time

[@Treesuh]

It is so amazing how we can be separated by decades (I am 25) and grew up in completely different settings (I grew up in NYC) and yet, have such similar memories of growing up. You guys hung out in your local college student center, I hung out at fast food restaurants/supermarkets or subway stations. I spent my middle school years specifically at a taco bell that had an empty lot behind it where we'd walk to from our middle school and just chill... and inadvertently create the funniest/stupidest memories. This generation is growing up in such a different environment, I am curious as to what kind of memories they are making to look back on decades from now. Working in a middle school now (the same one I went to, ironically) and seeing how they hang out recreationally, I don't see them being like ours.

[@tu33e]

I only clicked on this because of when they used to start GMM with "and we slap each other in the face" and I thought that this had to do with it somehow xD

[@bcc20009]

I would like to remind you, all teens or lower using the app also go to school. Meaning half their day, they are forced to socialize and communicate. So having after school conversations on video not only does not affect the skills of socialization, but it allows kids to talk more with each other due to the lack of constraint such as needing a ride somewhere.
