{YTP} ~ Hey Stranger, Awful Cards!

[@DaThings]

Unrelated, but I'd like to encourage you if you are able to consider supporting Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders). MSF provides medical care and humanitarian aid all over the world, especially for populations at risk from natural disasters, disease outbreaks, malnutrition, and (pertinently) armed conflict. www.msf.org/donate Supporting MSF or other humanitarian causes is a good thing to do any time, but especially as the people of Palestine suffer from relentless military force and a ceasefire has yet to happen at time of writing. People at minimum deserve to have their wounds treated and your contributions are appreciated. Thanks

[@AK-lg8fj]

Thanks for talking about this.

[@streamtheshapeshiftingfox3659]

Standing up for Palestine and human rights? That’s professional. (Will 100% be contributing when I can!)

[@PrincessFelicie]

Hell yeah. Let's get those doctors some borders

[@carltheshivan]

ok ?

[@nunyabizness6089]

@@PrincessFelicie I'm pretty sure the opposite is the goal

[@cs188]

No wonder I always lose card games. I keep drawing 4 of 4's.

[@dashcamandy2242]

You should only draw the 4 of 4's once in a fuchsia moon.

[@FooPanda]

Card not found?😮

[@redpepper74]

Drawing the 4 of 4’s is quite amateurish

[@Matthew.Sweeney]

He draws the 4 of 4s. Then he does it all over again...

[@MakusinMeringue]

@@Matthew.SweeneyDammit! And then we take a sh*t on the house...

[@ch48_]

If I had a nickel for every time Ellie used cards as the main theme for a YTP, I'd consider that amount of money to be quite amateurish

[@PrincessFelicie]

[@kingbadmovie]

Oh! Didn't DaThings had a name. Or was a she. Cool!

[@lecapitaineisonyoutoob]

Doubly funny considering Postman Tap, in which Tap shows the twins his CAAAAAAAWWWW -rds.

[@Xatzimi]

The "cultural stereotype" disclaimer at 3:22 was one of the funniest subtle jokes in this one

[@curtisleblanc5897]

Humour based on cultural stereotypes are amateurish. But also professional when executed well.

[@noisepuppet]

It's really very amateurish to be afraid when the land is dark and to shed a tear when you stumble and fall

[@teuast]

but standing by me, that's real professional

[@devinthierault]

I think we need to get on back

[@lucianite0]

I appreciate you pointing out the stereotype. As a deck of cards myself, you have no idea how many times I have to deal with hearing "top of the deck to you."

[@TheLethargicWeirdo985]

Nice deck, man! I love your really big deck!

[@MasacoMike]

So many quotable lines in this one. 3:16 "You might be wondering why I laugh." "Funny."

[@batcow3152]

George being really awkward and messing up was the funniest part to me

[@screamingcactus1753]

"I'm a professional"

[@Actiondanny]

Throughout the first half, I felt like something was missing, but I couldn't quite put my finger on what. Then the harpsichords came back and I realized how much I'd missed them. Pretty amateurish of me not to have noticed sooner.

[@Hauptseite]

Quite professional of you to recognize how amateurish you are.

[@Pr0t4t0]

@@HauptseiteQuite ameteurish of you to turn that statement on its head.

[@areoants9453]

[@curtisleblanc5897]

I was waiting for them the whole time.

[@bentbk]

That mario kart 64 joke at the end was clever. Went on as long as it needed to.

[@RobotacularRoBob]

Back when vidya games wanted you to be sure you’re sure

[@onomatopoeia7505]

That reminds of the Die Hard trilogy game on the PSX. In the first game (the third person shooter), when you quit, it asks if you're sure. You can say 'yes', 'no', and 'maybe', and if you select 'maybe', it gives you a few options, with the best one 'ask a friend'. If you select that, it gives you, in giant letters, "GET A LIFE".

[@SHRUGGiExyz]

George Joseph really tanked my self esteem, but then I remembered believing magicians is pretty amateurish

[@yeehaw-city3086]

Really can’t overstate how the double whammy of “Fine. Seethe.” and the following clip sent me

[@hansonel]

George Joseph sure showed the magician how to be an amateurish professional: "Uhhh... and... opps!"

[@ComnenusDefender]

Accepting and loving who you are, warts and screw-ups and all, is PROFESSIONAL “Borrowing” cards and not even applying card pudding is AMATEURISH

[@davidcventura1584]

The Professional/Amateurish joke is just pure gold!! Keep up the good work!!!

[@unrenewable]

"There's a second technique, which is Technique 2" Good to know

[@nicodemos4829]

You gotta be kidding me I just came to the channel to rewatch old videos and 15 seconds ago you posted a new one.

[@TheLastComa]

Love when that happens. *the mammoth* 🦣

[@jeremytitus9519]

it’s super frustrating when all I wanna do is watch old videos but there’s a new one in the way

[@handlewasntavailable]

And just when we needed it the most, the Professional/Amateurish joke came back

[@himenesu93]

Obssesed with the part at 4:09 , i absolutely needs an endless loop version

[@Meshamu]

1:43 Love the Homestar Runner reference! 5:42 Our dude displays the confusion we all have right now. I was also surprised that you didn't include the truffle shuffle at any point in the video. Admittedly, my expectations were quite amateurish.

[@genesisplus4325]

I love how he advocates for you to steal and calls it "borrowing" 🤣

[@notdylan1689]

It would be surprising for them

[@seal3611]

I was so desperately hoping for something to be amateurish through the whole video, and was not disappointed!!

Hey Ellie thank you so much for putting trigger warnings in your title cards, it's really helpful! 💜

[@marcstutsman4861]

I kept expecting the Rosen "Nice" after every card snap.

[@agirlhasn0name]

There's lots of goodness throughout but my favorite bit is the Stand By Me remix... "Be afraid, be afraid Be afraid, be afraid As you stand, and the land is dark Shed a tear, as you stumble and fall To the sea"

[@TheLastestYo-KaiWatchFan9001]

Wow, George really tricked us all into becoming amateurish by making us witness his professionality, not just in one video, but two!

[@paulkowald4057]

I wish we could make people behave like real people

[@CaptainLumpyDog]

Real people are AMATEURISH

[@mirandahallisy97]

That little beat at 4:10 was kinda cute, and just the mere mention of Preparation H always cracks me up! 🤪 OK?

[@chrisfronzi8236]

It’s stuck in my heh. hoh sis 😭

[@fishratthings3870]

I was getting worried that Professional/Amateurish wasn’t going to be in this, but Ellie didn’t disappoint

[@bigsweetowl4487]

Be afraid Be afraid Be afraid Be afraid As you stand And the land is dark Shead a tear As you stumble and fall To the sea It's snowing on Mt. Fuji

[@gnarlyandy1]

This part is amazing.

[@kittencaboodle8124]

all of this was great but the return of amateurish vs professional really got me

[@arandomcommenter0135]

"to fold their card roughly in half, which is quite fun if it's a borrwed deck, especially if it's a Magic: The Gathering deck of cards" That explains why every MTG deck i have is folded...

[@potatodar]

Top o’ the deck to you, Ellie, beautiful work as always

[@LongcrierInProgress]

3:05 Its true. It's especially funny if you fold a Magic the Gathering card.

[@dkpsyhog]

Crossing over with a previous YTP? That's Professional.

You actually have to tear apart Blacker Lotus to use it, so he's technically not wrong about having to tear the mtg card in half.
