The Subway Where I Used To Go (Somebody That I Used To Know / Gotye Parody)

In which Hank breaks up with Subway in favor of Jimmy John's (through a parody song) and then talks about advertising for a while. Because advertising is very interesting and a little bit disturbing.

Save our School Programs! Please help!

Maybe I will talk about it more in the future.

As for Facebook, I really believe that it (and lots of other companies that offer free services to their users) are dramatically overvalued. I think Facebook went public at the right moment, and that it's stock price will dip substantially before it is correctly valued and starts growing again. But, y'know, I'm not a financial analyst. I do know that if Vlogbrothers was paid based on the same metric of $100 per user, we could sell our…
