I prefer the blue one! And man THANK YOU for addressing the big elephant in the room. i was so tired of people calling it a romance out of a lack of reading comprehension that i preemptively... put off this video for. one month? but now i decided to finally open this tab of a long forgotten window and watch it. glad I did! it was very entertaining and, again, _thank you for that clarification_
I'm in three minutes mark, and that sounds like the premise of this one yaoi drama where the main character accidentally crash his bike into a porn author and has to write for him for compensation lmaoo
She was single I was taken I took her - some kid 😭🙏 Vro
Anyone here from Copywriting campus guys? 💀
Nobody understands the maze runner like me 😭 those books are a better dystopian world than people give them credit for
I wish i could meet you every sundeess Oh Im sorry Those days Im only in my undiessss - crappypoems
welcome to the modern world this is a poem. THAT ACTUALLY SOUNDS LEGIT LIKE WHAT-
Something interesting about Effie's first outfit, the magenta Powersuit, she has white makeup with bleached eyebrows, to make her look like a ghost, a symbol of death to the distracts.Her eye makeup is also kinda like a clowns, to show how shes nkt tajen seriously but her desire to be taken seriously.
I look it like this if you don't want to listen to Eminem than don't. But he's one of the greatest rappers. But on the other hand, are these gen z trying to get more subscribers.
yesss, just like comic sans, i think it's time to stop needlessly hating on the art style. since i was a kid in 1st grade --- the first time i ever was exposed to fonts in our computer class, i've thought comic sans looks rl cute, and i still think so now. i didn;t know about its oversaturation or it being overused to a point of being hated on so much. so is this artstyle, there are many bad examples in this vid where the illus are stale, 'brother ugh' and emotionaless, but tbh, i think alot of them are fun, playful, whimsical, colorful and attractive to look at. it is a modern touch to the 'boringness' of hyper-realistic art (no i'm not hating on hyperrealistic art)
the brain rot is getting to me, i clicked on this not knowing what its about (or at least not completely). why? i looked at the thumbnail, nothing else. im so sorry there are cells in my brain that are dying bc i want a quick dopamine hit, im so sad rn. anyway, ty for blessing my eyes with your beauty bye 🤗
This story is so un-HINGE-d
you COOKED
Awesome vid.
Make it a Series 🙌
1:21 why does she remind me of the grandmother in Moana here XD Also I know it’s way too overdone, but I just love the way these covers look, with girls and plants and horror. *chefs kiss*
I LOVE your cover redesign vids!!! Truly, if you had not talked about how you struggled to make this cover, i would not have been able to tell that you had any difficulties AT ALL!!!! You ate this UP, queen 👏👏👏
2:24 Id like to hear more about the zipper storyline. Sounds like there’s some history there, maybe good material for a prequel
I once made one but IDK if sb seen it supposed to be joke from them: Poetry... Poetry is not Spaces.... Spaces and randomness randomness in grammar In different places.... A lot of dots.
For some reason I thought capitol adopted covey (bright, eccentric) style after Lucy’s win, but instead of making fashion about individuality and freedom, they turned it into powerful aristocratic tool that distinguished them from districts
I feel like Colleen would’ve been the type of person to write fanfics for my grandma’s soap operas.
I just started the video but using Anne Hathaway here was rlly funny
I didn't know you could draw too. You should be a cover artist!
this should serve as inspiration for writers!! this if THIS can sell i bet you can too
nah the playlist is sending me
Ah yes George Orwell, the bestselling author of IT ENDS WITH US
NIPPLES OF GLASS LMAO-
Pls, dont read all coho books for your own sanity 😭🙏🏻
OK I'm 38 years old, and the only thing I worry about here is that the younger generation think we all feel and act like this. I have two teenage daughters and I love learning about shit they're into and showing them things I was into at their age. Please don't think that all of us 'oldies' look down on you guys because we don't, unfortunately though its only the ones making cringe diss tracks that get attention!
You cursed me to imagine Jeremy Fragrance as every main man in a Colleen Hoover book
your American accent is uncanny
Fact is, that Leonardo DiCaprio played Romeo in a modern Romeo and Juliet (Romeo+Juliet)
