Things I Can Do

[@gracemilliman5403]

I'm hoping that someday in the future when I will be considered a longtime nerdfighter, I will get a book published and John will read it.

[@abbyprinster3325]

Me too.

[@margaretmadole]

I'm not the only one. He should do a book club of nerd fighter written books.

[@webkinzgirl2405]

[@magnuspeacock5857]

How the book going?

[@ieuanhunt552]

How's the book going?

[@Dusty_Teacup]

Watching vlogbrothers always gives me so much more hope for humanity.

[@abbyprinster3325]

You also know how to change people's lives. You changed mine. Thank you so much for being who you are and thank you for helping me find who I am.

[@evan]

You are definitely allowed to end a sentence in a preposition! It's a myth that you cannot! For instance, think of this sentence: What are you sitting on? It makes perfect logical sense and is not incorrect in the slightest. Fun fact!

[@oldfridge5059]

Ok, Evan.

[@JatPhenshllem]

Ok, Evan :)

[@kat14kalvya]

"Good Morning Hank It's valentines day, Nyeh"

[@maddie9602]

The vlogbrothers video that introduced me to the wonderful CGP Grey! Wow, I have been following both of these channels for a long-ass time.

[@ACWNerdfighter]

So John, my friend just recently started reading TFiOS and very near the end now and she told me that she wasn't aware that she could feel this wide range of emotions all at one time. She is so happy that I told her about this beautiful story and can't wait to read more of John's work. I am so happy to have this new thing to talk to her about and am eager to analyze the book with her. John, thank you so much for this beautiful, beautiful story. With love, Amanda

[@abundanceofmonica]

Sometimes, when I'm needing a pick-me-up, I find a good John vid. where his excitement excites me. Thank you for existing, John. I can always count on the Vlogbrothers to make me feel better when I can't do it myself.

[@sarkasticchik9133]

John you are a great novelist, that's enough for me.

[@linds9846]

John, you can also not demolish a wall.

[@xxxxjuanitaxxx8942]

He also knows how to write award-winning novels. just saying.

[@matbluvenger]

As a Nerdfighter in training (SO MANY VIDEOS) and a huge soccer/football fan, I have to say that the "One-size Fitz Hall" chant is hilarious and it's beyond amazing that supporters have adopted it.

[@flipppbook]

I DIDN'T KNOW THE STATISTICAL PROBABILITY Of LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT WAS WRITTEN BY A NERDFIGHTER! I FREAKIN' LOVE THAT BOOK! *drops into a dead faint*

[@42jjc22]

Glad you liked "The Art of Fielding" The author was from my home town, and while not from my high school, he did graduate within my HS career.

[@q1w2e3621]

CGPGREY!

[@homeworkbreak4237]

TRULY A VICTORY FOR THE FORCES OF JUSTICE

[@serke]

CGP Grey - watched all his videos after you did your own "misconceptions run down" and I have to agree, my favorite new subscription.

[@bethanycoram617]

I managed to read 50 books in 5 months this is my greatest achievement

[@MangoPear101]

I have just found another reason to love you besides your amazing books and hilarity- YOU LIKE CGPGREY. I freaking worship that guy.

[@hlrothwell]

Valentines day, meh. SWAMP PEOPLE!!!

[@littlesmallRed]

Dear John, I live in Ireland. I used to feel really sad when you'd talk about your books or cool stuff, because frankly not many people know you to are in my area(gasp i know right). while I was shopping the last day I stumbled into a book store hoping I might find your book and by chance it was there. Right on the no.1 spot. I stood in front of it smiling like a goof for a good while. Then I hastily picked it up and brought it and I honestly say I been so happy since then. Thanks John. DFTBA

[@salinamariel3312]

I LOVE THE STATISTICAL PROBABILITY OF LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

[@fluffafluffa]

New subscriber here...watching year old videos. Holy cow, my ears can't keep up with the speed of your speech! Love your enthusiasm!

[@avery-quinnmaddox5985]

"It's Valentine's Day. Eh." Exactly how I feel.. and I'm in a lovely romantic relationship! Valentine's Day still doesn't phase me.

[@imth3batman]

I love the energy in every John Green KZbin video! I should probably watch 2 or 3 each morning to get me amped up. I might be able to cut back on caffeine by doing that.

[@galieguerrero7067]

He talks really fast, but its really awesome

[@MEver316]

I think I've watched all of CGPgrey's videos at least twice. He is super awesome.

[@jaredkidd1]

CGP Grey is pretty awesome! DFTBA (He certainly didn't)

[@athena5795]

Also, add that you can go from doing amazing, hilarious videos like this, to breaking my heart. I have just finished TFIOS, and now am reading LFA. I'm dying. But thank you so much :)

[@Foureye15]

CGP grey is awesome

[@olgaguevara7321]

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight is such a great book. I absolutely loved it!

[@aviswong8921]

I've read 66 out of a 100 goal books this year, 2014. :/

[@UnitedWeRize]

Its better than zero ;)

[@LeahMarkum]

Avis Wong Question: when people have a set number of books they want to read in a year, are there parameters regarding the length and content of the book? In other words, do short stories or books with a considerable amount illustrated space count?

[@Anybol]

Leah Markum I'm doing 50 books this year (which in retrospect is far too little), and basically I think its up to the individual. My criteria is anything that's 1) fiction, and 2) long enough to be published individually (50+ pages). The only illustrated books I think that meet those criteria are comics/manga, and I don't count those.

[@thekthiputhicat]

I just finished reading 'Fault in our Stars', I cried. A lot. You rock at writing

[@DakotaJamesCox]

Okay so if people can buy hard copies of movies with download codes to put it on their computer, why can't we do that with books? Like go to a website or an app or something, punch in the code, and now it's a legal pdf version or maybe on your kindle.

[@BronteSpirit]

YES PLEASE I NEED THIS TO BE A THING.

[@Luigispin236FIlms]

John, you are probably the only person in the world that I "know" that I would legitimately like to give a hug. I am an aspiring author, filmmaker, and designer, and none of the awesome, nerdy stuff I've done in my community to decrease world suck would have happened if I didn't discover your videos. If I ever meet you, I'm going to shake your hand. It would be an honor enough. Keep making videos, and DFTBA.

[@alysonwyers]

"over-eager grammarians" is my favourite.

[@SuperTwilightFanX]

I love it when you get excited and talk really fast! :) x

[@candysweetness27]

So you don't have to do anything in particular to be a nerd fighter? Just watch videos? If so I am a nerd fighter.

[@graceclymer6673]

Eeyup! Welcome aboard!

[@marybach9925]

You have to decrease world suck. If you don't at least try to decrease world suck, then it's hard to call yourself a nerdfighter

[@kapilesh14]

Thank you ,Thank you so much for recommending CGPGray .

[@nickcheney2002]

you stole the doobliedoo

[@awesomepersonella]

really? who'd he steal the doobliedoo from???

[@gimlinator4494]

awesomepersonella Wheezywaiter

[@jessicarosenberg433]

leon perga Which he acknowledged the first time he used it....

[@NevvyK]

I forgot to add that your videos NEVER fail to make me smile and you and Hank are honestly two of my favourite people in the world. EVER. You're all the way up there with my mum, ans that person gave me life. x

[@daveatron_]

I love it when one cool channel (vlogbrothers) recommends another cool channel (CGPgrey) that you already knew about and you feel so awesome :D

[@BaileySuttonMusic]

I think you had some extra enthusiasm in todays video. Also, I think i just realized how much I really enjoy you in this video. I really enjoy you john. I knew this already. But. I never thought about it before. Okay ill stop now.

[@wildwildeyes]

Thank you for being so passionate about everything. You make the world and the internet SUCK less.

[@EightTobiins]

I looooved The Art of Fielding and I had forgotten I learned about it from this video.

[@bbyyaya]

I love CGPGrey!

[@DaydreamerWonderland]

Dear John, You talking of the direct connection between those who like stuff and the stuff they like,in addition to the fact that you're an artist,more precisely a writer,not to mention you were the one who gave me the idea of becoming an editor leads us to the question;in the future will there such persons as editors?Do writers need them? I’d really appreciate if you answered,since i could do this with all my heart,still,i’m affraid of what the future might hold, and i need your help.Thank you

[@rhinocerosrosa]

Thank you so much for mentioning The Statistical Probability of Falling in Love at First Sight! Straight after I watched this video I looked it up, thought it sounded good and ordered it from amazon, and one afternoon later have already finished it. My new favourite book! :D

[@obviousadmire]

Julia Nunes! I'm so glad you mentioned her in your video! Her album is 59 on iTunes charts. Also, I love your videos.

[@themitchweiss]

I just read "The Statistical Probability..." at your recommendation, John, and I really enjoyed it.

[@TheBeccabus]

Thanks for the tip about CGP Gray! I subscribed to him last week. He is made of awesome. ...you guys are cool too...

[@Maetastic]

I love that the moment you read the title and said it was by a Nerdfighter, I had enough trust in you to go buy it. I'm very much looking forward to getting The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight on Monday

[@mathjb94]

you speak so quickly! I love it because it makes me pay more attention to what you're saying and concentrate more than I would if you didnt'!

[@popautor]

I love the way you through at us so many great ideas and encourage us to follow them!! thanks!!

[@BritishConcept]

I concur, he is great at talking really fast. That is definitely an ability worth having!

[@rebeccarightnow]

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight is really good! So much more... thoughtful and insightful than I expected it to be. I love being surprised like that.

[@longfang12312]

Just casually watching the video's of a vlogbrothers playlist in the middle of the night with headphones on. Having to turn the volume up from Hanks low volume videos and instantly get my ears assaulted by the imbalanced and loud yet amazing sound that is Johns voice. Proceed to panic and fall over smashing my delicious apple into my armpit.

[@DontCallMeFlash]

John, your books make ME feel all the things.

[@itallbeginswithaSONG]

the statistical probability of love at first sight is sooooooooo good! it was the first book i read this year

[@koehlercl]

its just beautiful and made me feel ALL THE THINGS

[@superskh]

I nearly shrieked with joy when you announced the spoilery questions tumblr... thing. I just finished yesterday (JUST AFTER RUNNING OUT OF TISSUES IN MY ROOM, MIND YOU) and I've been internally screaming ever since. So, thank you.

[@TheNickLeez]

You guys are amazing and hilarious, and one of the reasons I have recently started vlogging along with posting band videos. Keep it up!

[@TsukikoRin]

I.... Just watched 10 of Johns videos in a row and.... My brain finally exploded. Cannot retain so much information, so fast. (Still do love

[@leachim66]

I was so expecting him to end with "I'll see you around"

[@treehugger361]

"it was beautiful and made me feel all the things" word for word how I felt after reading TFIOS.

[@WriterGirl951]

You have no idea how awesome it is to watch a novelist's KZbin channel and know (at least some) of your thoughts and voice. DFTBA!

[@rika8484]

Officially backing Sapience on Kickstarter! I hope to see it succeed!!

[@summeradan9665]

The statistical probability of love at first sight is amazing. I read it a while back, completely unaware that a Nerdfighter had written it, and was blown away. It's so witty, honest about people and what people are actually like, and just beautifully written. If you haven't read it, you should give a try

[@wingardiumleviosaaah]

I read and LOVED The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight! Awesome book!

[@Gothiclibrarian]

I think one of the great things about being a nerd is not necessarily that you do a lot of things well, but that the things you can do, or love to do, you hold onto and excel at for the sheer joy of those things.

[@AdamTadz]

I'm doing John Green as my interest in my English presentation, because he is just so awesome, as are his books. DFTBA

[@sjj71189]

I just finished reading TFiOS today so I thought I'd check out your vlog. So here I am watching this vid and you mention another book I had just recently read, The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight. I would have to agree with you, that book is " amazing, it's beautifully written, it's super romantic, but it's also extremely thoughtful. I was very blown away." But that's exactly how I feel about your book too. Couldn't have said it better myself.

[@tardisbecauseyes]

"IT MADE ME FEEL ALL THE THINGS." Oh, John.

[@SmallTownTori]

I read The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight in 5 hours by his suggestion of it and now my feels are everywhere. Kinda like when I read anything by John. DARN YOU.

[@MiguelDuboisSwarm]

I love Hank and John but I do miss this energy

[@pipiprei]

aaah! finally, i just spent an hour rewatching a lot of vlogbrother videos just to find the one in wich he mentions the statistical probability of love at first sight because i wanted to read it but couldn't remember the title :D

[@ErinFrances92]

i'm from swindon!! hearing swindon town fc mentioned in a vlogbrothers video was the last thing i expected!!

[@luckypucklee]

She looked through the book and saw a signature and a drawing of an angler fish. She came to find me in my room asking "What is this? Were you planning on telling me you had a hanklerfish?" Confused, I asked about it. Apparently, she was a huge fan of your writing ad videos. I recently searched your name, and ended up here. I am now a fan as well. I know this is late and all, and there are certainly more recent videos I could put this on, but mention of your book made this seem relevant.

[@bass777chick]

So, funny story, I was looking through tfios trying to find this mysterious "last word of acknowledgements" to get into the blog... I basically ended up re-reading the last few chapters trying desperately to figure out what it was. Suddenly, it hit me! In the acknowledgements... the list of thank-yous and such at the very very end after the story is over! D'oh! I face-palmed.

[@middlemuse]

Gotta love the little smile at the end there as you realize, John, that you juuuuuust barely scraped through your final repetition of "overeager grammarians". That's why you're a hero.

[@Comenter0555]

I bought The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight on my kindle and I read it all today. I couldn't stop smiling after I finished it. Thank you for telling me about that book.

[@ishyaverma4063]

"Very blown away? I'm a novelist." How I love John.

[@jacabglass5586]

"Hank, Friday is the day I will see you on."

[@AB1lt0n]

I'm getting The Fault in our Stars for Christmas. Can't wait!!!! :)

[@cuzmariosaidso]

im on chapter 4 of TFIOS!!!!! loving it so far john!!!!!

[@plaidpantsglory]

I've seen Statistical Probability in the bookstore! It looked interesting, but I had no idea it was written by a nerdfighter! That's awesome!

[@TheZocar]

@vlogbrothers I appreciate your reply. Thanks; and now I understand!

[@luckypucklee]

Oh wow. I went to the used book store the other day, and I picked up the book 'The Fault in Our Stars'. It was great. better yet, it had a sticker on it that read 'signed copy'. I thought that was wonderful, having a cheap book at the same price as the others be signed as well. I didn't anticipate how much I'd love your writing. Later, my friend went searching through my stuff and stumbled across the book, seeing the sticker.

[@lessthanthreeCOWZ]

I've read "The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight" and enjoyed it immensely and bought it (in hardcover too). However, now I love it with an extra power since Jennifer E. Smith is a Nerdfighter. Huzzah.

[@AstridIthilwen]

Oh my god. I work at a bookshop here in the Netherlands and spend a greater part of my fridaynight shift looking for "the statistical probability of love at first sight" because it's at number three in the young adult chart (for our chain of stores, which is quite big a large chain tbh). The title had me intrigued already, knowing it was written by a nerdfighter has only made me want to read it more!

[@vidiemable]

I'm happy, I subscribed to cgp grey long before this video, possibly before I was a nerdfighter.

[@XanothAvaeth]

The more I watch John and Hank, the more the description section is transformed into a doobly-do, I much better word by any standard.

[@dylankicksa]

In total in 2013 all the books i read were An Abundance of Katherines, Looking for Alaska, Will grayson, Will Grayson, and now i am reading Paper towns :3

[@jjrunt]

John's videos are so much louder than Hank's...I think my ears just died of heartattacks.

[@sonamy78]

FEEL ALL THE THINGS UGH WHY IS JOHN GREEN SO PERFECT

[@ellahope9361]

Your ranting is beautiful

[@xxrachii]

TFIOS made me cry like a baby...I adored it and have read it twice. Plus i got a hanklerfish... which made my life.

[@annieisapandalover]

I MET the author of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight today ad OMG SHE'S LOVELY she mentioned you as well. Thank you for recommending her

[@marebear1215]

i always love the books you recommend! please do it more often!

[@HobbyLinguist]

Exactly! The preposition thing is an evil up with which we do not have to put!

[@minimooster7258]

I've read maybe 20 books this year but I got a phone and I didn't get enough book time. I'm coming back now though with 5 books in the past month and a bit. (between 300-600 pages each)
