[@GamerPhreek]

For the first 30 or so seconds of the Binney segments, I was sure I was watching some weird Brutalmoose-style sketch joke lol. In fact, even after finishing the video I'm not sure that Binney wasn't just a big joke and didn't exist in the Gerbert videos at all, haha!

[@Perfectix]

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!!!!

[@Heliogabalos]

I was about to say, when I can’t tell if something is some bizarre brutalmoose sketch or a real thing in the actual piece of media it’s gonna be a great time.

[@ZeranZeran]

It reminds me of the plays that my grandma's Church used to put on for kids (Mostly acted out by someone's grandpa, uncle, mom, dad, etc.) which looking back is both hilarious and heartwarming. Everything was done by someone's dad or uncle, it was all slapped together, but that's what made it so funny. They made props, they had entire sets. Moms aunts and grandmas helped with costumes and scripts. The adults had just as much fun as the kids I think! We have a few on VHS still. I'm not super religious anymore, but these adults acted their hearts out and really tried to make us laugh, and we did. They were very sweet people. I never forgot their kindness. Thanks everyone who helped out or showed up at CLF church (OC) ♥

I concur sir. It honestly is about unbearable but Ian's rage and humor is pretty accurate for the vibes of this weird ass show.

[@patrickphelan279]

I think it might be even truer and more complicated than that - I think Ian feels Gerbert's repressed rage, the hatred and loathing wrapped up in that tiny orange body, and has no option but to expel it, bringing it into the world in an agonised birth of perfect fury.

The editing style and humor of these VHS videos is by far my favorite of Ian's stuff. Keep it up please

[@aromaladyellie]

I also like that the video is shot and posted in old youtube sizing.

[@ZeranZeran]

I'll just say: Mr. Kaiser? F*** You. "I don't know how else to say it, but... I'M A MUSICIAN, AND I WROTE A SONG!" Cars Cars Cars Cars, Cars Cars Cars Cars I'm adopted! "Don't go away, gerber be right back" This video feels like it was made for me. I don't even know what this type of video would be called other than "Comfortable but weird nostalgia" - and I LOVE IT. Brutalmoose videos are some of my favorite. There is no other channel quite like this.

“Gerbert is so lame, would be boring to hang out with him, what a square!” *VHS cuts to literally anything else* “WHERE’S THE GERB!?”

[@carlcarlington7317]

“Love isn’t something you fell” I can literally see the sad middle aged man who wrote that line, I can see his loveless marriage that makes him miserable, I can hear him constantly making boomer jokes about how much he hates his wife, I see him walking to church asking the pastor about the possibility of divorce, I can hear the pastor saying no, I can hear his thoughts as he wakes up in the morning as he repeats that line to himself like a mantra, I see him as he apathetically gos through his morning routine in a kinda fog, I see him looking at the woman he hasn’t touched in years and saying “I love you” before walking out to work on the new season of gerbert… he’s totally the paint brush guy.

Binney reminds me of the Threshold Kids puppet show in Control. "You say, 'Hey ma! I need a shoebox!' but then your father reminds you that she walked into the city and never came back. I miss your mom. We all do."

4:18 “Gerbert’s moral compass is so intense that stealing an apple is basically the same thing as murder.” For what it’s worth, both stealing & murder are against the Ten Commandments.

Yyyeah..... stealing is a mistranslation. It's really more like kidnapping. Capitalism would prefer you to believe it's stealing though.

[@LittleMissLounge]

@@nyancatpoptart5441 I feel like there are three approaches kids take inre to adoption. The first are the genuinely sad cases of abused kids who want different, loving parents. The second are kids who are pissed at their parents for making them do lame shit like eat eat vegetables and sleep and thus want more permissive parents instead. The third are the kids who mock adopted kids because they're bullies who've probably been taught adoption is lesser, even shameful. I'm assuming "I wish I was adopted" kid in the video is the second one.

[@wetsockfullofhotmeat]

@@nyancatpoptart5441 I partially wanted to be adopted because of a rough home life, but mostly because I constantly saw adoption storylines on TV where the character would go on a grand journey to find their birth parents. I wanted that kind of excitement in my seven year old life. So it varies lmao

I had the "peer pressure" tape when I was a kid. I've been trying to remember what the name of this series is for YEARS and then, bang, this video pops up on my feed. Strangely, I had forgotten about the apple theft and the radio, the only thing I really remembered was the argument about which ice cream flavor is best.

[@S0247157]

I used to see Binney Brush every night in my room at 3 AM when I was a kid- He's scream and wail in his nasally voice about how it's "too late for me," and "too late for you too, kid," but he'd never tell me what it was we were late for. After that he'd sob miserably for about half an hour. When he was done, he'd say "Hey, gotta go! This is your FaaaaAAAavorite paintbrush, signing out! Binney!" and he'd write his name on the mirror on the closet door in blood. I always thought it was pretty rude of him to assume he was my favorite paint brush, but otherwise one of my fondest memories of youth
