NEW NINGMASTERS!!!

Yeah, it's been a while again. I am so darn good at procrastinating. I should be "Tom, Procrastination Ningmaster". I'd be so good at it. ^_^

But over to the purpose of this blog post; the announcement of the new Ningmasters!

It was once again a difficult task to pick Ningmasters. Partly because there were so many applicants, partly because I don't know half of you as well as I'd like. :)

That's why picking Ningmasters involves a lot…

Positive Prank Calls!!

In which Hank calls random strangers in his town and tells them encouranging and true facts about our world.

I couldn't fit all of them in, and I had to cut a few of them down (and maybe re-film a couple because they took so embarrassingly long for me to say) but I've included the script I used which has all of the positive facts I…

Wanted: Ningmasters and stuff.

Remember that time in February when I said we needed new Ningmasters and stuff?

Yeah, that didn't happen. :Þ

Now I know that's not entirely my fault; the car did cut that corner short thereby momentarily driving on the left side of the road, right when I was approaching from the other side, but while it took some time to catch upon everything that I missed in the month I spent in hospital, I've been back for quite a bit already.

And while I… Continue

I HATE PENNIES!!!! (Also Nickels.)

Vlogbrothers shirts: http://dftba.com/vlogbros

In which John Green discusses his virulent hatred for pennies and nickels, two utterly irrelevant coins that inexplicably remain money in the United States of America. It costs more than 1.7 cents to make a 1 cent penny coin in the US; nickels are even more ridiculous, costing more than nine cents to produce.

My inflation calculations came from the CPI inflation… Continue
