Best of the Worst: Black Spine Raffle 

Yea that stuck out to me as well. He's the complete opposite.

He was trying to say ophtomahalogistist but his stroke produced optimist instead.

A pessimist is usually an optimist that got burned too many times. Maybe he's still secretly hopeful.

There is a very truthful frase that goes: " I'm not a pessimist, I'm a well informed optimist"

He's just depressed because he's an optimist who's living through the 21st century

Nah he went and stole the bingo equipment cause he finds elderly abuse hilarious

I was under the impression that they lived in their own quarantined wing of a retirement home.

Stole all their vhs tapes too

@@BovineDesigns The Media Center

@@munchjrgames942 of the Red Letter variety. It all makes sense now.

What a cunty thing to say to a child 😢

That’s the key to understanding some of these movies too: some awful film makers are just enamored with the equipment and don’t really care about the product.

I lol'd

Reminded me of that one Simpsons gag with the grandpa

‘he had to be in this fuckin videoh’ best quote

🤣 I love Tim

*Nin

Wendy’s must get robbed a lot then, huh?

Did that work?

@@benitolugo473 a lot of places tell workers to do this with the idea that good customer service means you're more aware of your surroundings, which in theory deters theft because a potential robber decides it's not worth it. whether that works or not who knows

"This is a robbery! Gimme all the cash in the register!" "You want fries with that, sir?"

Dang I was trained to just give them the cash very calmly cuz a few hundred bucks isn't worth their trouble having a dead employee and maybe a lawsuit. Which is just what I did when it happened, and then the manager was mad and the cops seemed suspicious asking me what happened because I was slow and calm despite that being the exact training given. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My hypothesis is Catholicism.

Lmaoo, where does this joke of mike hating old people come from?

@@gdadder No real pinpoint moment, but if you go back and watch all the Best of the Worst wheel/plinketto/black spine episodes, the guys always seem to have a comment/joke about Mike's reaction to vids that feature old folks and such, ha. Then Mike sometimes trolls them with "Massaging the Elderly" or something like that, ha.

@@D.B.. ha. Why do you say, ha? Never seen anyone do this, ha.

@@gdadder literally the “massaging the elderly”. No one wants it, Mike makes it happen and has wild outbursts while watching it.

Jay is used to it. Tim isn’t.

Give it time. He'll be doing it too, soon enough

At 25:49 if anyone else is trying to find the clip.

Well we had some "guests" that didn't fit in with the standards

Jay is probably feeling this is sweet, sweet revenge for Rich making fun of him for wearing Mike's clothes.

But instead of water it’s crystal head vodka

Don't give him any ideas.

Are VHS tapes damaged by water? I'm not old enough to know

@@mattrandazzo5491 Or left over acetone from the Star Wars toys. Then again, that probably wouldn't taste any different from Crystal Head Vodka.

He's been under water for like 30 minutes.. should we do something? Nah he's probably just looking for a good one.

Yeah a case doesn't have flaps or space for your cards, or in this situation, diabetes medicine.

I always identify with Rich Evans

I used to have a flip cover when I was in college lol

You too?

rich has showy bad fashion sense. mike has bland bad fashion sense. they're two sides of the same coin.

I mean, children in NY are adults, so...

​@@xp8969 , what's one New York year in Midwestern years?

@@janeeyre1990 About three Midwestern Months. Time moves real fast in the east.

Nah we sound ridiculous depending on family environment. My dad asked me where I learned to talk that way and my mom came upstairs saying, whats with the fucking laundry? And he just said oh okay. I went to college right in peak Jersey shore popularity and I worked to shed my accent.

@@louisachalarca6494 Former NY-er here. I have home movies of me at only 3 years old and I already "tawked" that way. Now that I live elsewhere, upon meeting me, it usually takes people 5 minutes or less to ask me if I'm originally from NY, lol.

It's okay, we've all had the Professor Bauman dream.

Better than my proctologist/predator Jay drea... nightmare.

Holy shit I had almost this exact same dream but Jay was my beer-swigging dad Look I can't help that he has daddy energy ok

@@fulldisclosureiamamonster2786 lol

People don't know this but Jay is the guy from "have you dreamt of this man"

I mean Gitmo must need ideas by this point.

The dark secret of RedLetterMedia is that it’s a CIA black ops program to test various torture techniques and brain washing. Rich Evans is actually sleeper agent that will assassinate Prime Minister Justin Trudeau when Mike gives him the code word.

The only rule for BoTW gimmicks is that it can’t be nailed down, they can’t throw it if it’s nailed down

@@jamiekamihachi3135 Got any ideas on what the codeword is?

@@dangerdan2592 OSHO.

He ran away like a toddler that just got caught doing something wrong lol

I need a gif of that

I already lost it when it was just Mike alone cackling to himself

I know Jay is a coffee fan, so maybe he was coming back to get the coffee cup. That’s what I would do.

he's much more experienced with sex perverts than breasts.

AND "autoerotic asphyxiation"! The inner machinations of his mind are an enigma.

Thats a quote from the X-files, so he has no problem. Its just normal speech that flummoxes him.

Don't forget "Unsubstantiated"

I couldn't even read your comment in my head without messing it up

I am so old I remember "Safety 6 Kids".

"2 fast 2 kids" was my favorite. That's when it became all about the family.

That a next level pun right there

@@MaciejBogdanStepien That was before the first accident...

They better watch that second tape and do a 3 hour video on it

Truly is the gift that keeps on…. Well it just keeps on, and occasionally gives. But I want more episodes

Me personally, I loved and miss Junka.

@@jamesrollins1122 Junka is one of my favourites too, but they need to figure out a way to watch only like 4-8 tapes. Otherwise it's like serving a five year sentence.

It’s awful. I love it.

@@JohnnyNatrium the original black spine was hailed as a failure as well; but in the world of hack-frauds, failure is the gift that keeps on giving.

Why every year? Also did yall work at a gas station with blue aprons? :3

Dude! I had to watch the same armed robbery video when I worked at Walmart in 1998 right after high school! And I’m not even in the Seattle area so this thing had legs and went around the country.

7 years in retail? Not sure if I should pity you or salute you.

"William Shatner hates you & Julia Roberts loves me!"

*EMOTIONAL DAMAGE*

That's funny because one of the categories under his Wikipedia article is "Car collectors"

Yeah, I was wondering, “Hey this dude looks familiar…”

i remember him from Fredrick Knudsen's documentary

@@fadelpw511 YES, that’s exactly where I remember him from!

There was an episode of Forensic Files about them poisoning the Oregon town

underrated comment

As will I!

I would buy that for a dollar!

It's backwards though. Robocop would totally support civilians submitting to anything. In fact he won't hesitate to arrest them should they do anything rash. He's zero tolerance.

Iv been using that metric since 88. You noob

It’s a well known fact Mike despises the elderly

@@grillwello7206 Mike hates the elderly almost as much as Rich hates Halloween.

@@grillwello7206 Mike is an old at this point.

@@ObeyNoLies That changes nothing. I always hated kids, even when I was one.

I mean wtf.

The 4 safest kids.

there's nothing safe about crippling alcoholism

@@Hey_Aqualung lol thats.. well thats fair. also i feel that

I hear that Rich Evans fellow is cool about fire safety.

Or sawing someone in half. No one ever buys carbon offsets when they do *that* trick.

@@Corbomite_Meatballs There was a whole section of sanctions on this in the Paris Climate Accords! David Copperfield is worse than big oil!

To be fair, the Pick Up part of the game teaches to pick up litter after some a-hole made a mess so it's kind of teaching environmentalism.

Yeah when the vid said that i couldn't help but think of all the copies of the VHS in dump sites.

52? Well that's just excessive.

He IS a fifty year old woman

time stamp?

​@@madmanpecos I'd consider it despite this being a year-old comment but it is quite literally in the first 30 seconds of the video

@@Regulith idk how i missed that ive seen this video like 7 times

coulda sworn his name was nin...

Its definitely a death rattle 🤣🤣🤣🤯☠

The alcohol abuse will kill him long before that.

@@executorocsicnarf5475 he's from Milwaukee; that's not abuse, it's tough love.

He will shit himself laughing, the irony of which which will only make him laugh more, causing an endless and fatal feedback loop of shitting and laughing. When he reaches heaven, Jesus will wordlessly wave Mike in, knowing that Mike has already reached the highest stage of enlightenment.

He will still hate old people when he is.

Gradually?

Like in "gradual death..." ? ;)

It’s all coming together. Rich Evans was the real Heisenberg the whole time! 🤯

in 15 years? they should do it right now

@@sednoid I was gonna say, yeah, he's being generous with the years.

What a plot twist!

Yeah, I thought I missed an episode lol

At first i just figured they are ancient dinosaurs making jokes about a old celebrity. I wasnt wrong but there was context later

SPOILERS!

i love how the fact that this is top comments means that the punchline is ruined for many

Unlike Mike himself

Mike's laugh makes me irrationally happy, because I kind of laugh the same way.

Yes it will. It got old in this video. At exactly the midpoint of the Milton Burle tape. Rich Evans wasn't wrong... this is the worst BotW they have ever done. By a long shot.

Mike is gonna be such an excellent elderly man

The osteoporosis dance is epic

Could've been at American science and surplus! I visited there recently and you could definitely have found something like this there

that he most likely slapped a lower pricetag on while no one was looking

He did, it was my Grandma's. She loved that roller before she died.

Right next to meemaw’s pictures of Jesus and the broken DVD players

@@JaneSmith-so6hw Did she die in a raffle roller incident?

Tui Fui; Ego Eris

Rage, rage against the dying of the light

Hey now, some of us resemble that remark

19th century gravestone version: "As you are now, so once was I, as I am now so shall you be; prepare for death, and follow me." I'd thought of having that on my own tombstone, but now prefer the more accurately descriptive: "In my defense, I _was_ left unsupervised." OR..."In my defesne, I never could spell."

Memento Mori Mike

I have to disagree, elderly people make him way more powerful

I think it is paradoxically both his kryptonite and a fetish for him

who will be the saint to link it here

And that would still be preferable to watching Miami Connection.

@@wilcee238 Miami Connection is stupid fun tho. It'd be preferable to watching The Item or Robowoman, though.

@@B.-T. Fair enough.

Can we count exploding varmints as one?

@@ackbarreserve i do. That’s an otherwise hilariously terrible couple of videos-and a third I can never watch a second time. Poor varmints!

Flashbacks to the minor-league baseball game roast

Counterpoint: Fart Bags

I couldn't laugh as I'm currently watching this on my wallet phone.

"Tell us, Grandma, what did you learn??"

i have rich's phone case

Holy shit its so funny that you noticed that and they didn't remember at all

Detective Andrew on the case holy shit

oh my god!! the universe has been giving us black spine clues all this time but nobody noticed,, until it was too late...

That is such a great catch!

I thought that looked familiar! Another thing they never noticed was that the dude who hosted the Dog-Sitter video was also in the How to Spot Counterfeit Beanie Babies video. Which makes me wonder what other instructional VHS tapes he's appeared in. I also thought it was weird that even though they did point out that Billy B had been in a previous video in WotW 20, none of them mentioned his kids. Did their mom have them the weekend he shot the video? Were they dead? Had they moved far away? Did they refuse to be in the video?

Few men live to be as long as Milton Berle.

It’s a sobering moment when we all have to accept we’ll never be any longer.

giggity

"This is the worst episode" - Rich

It is actually possible to live to be longer, with Therapy Plus. *Do NOT use on genital tissue.

Meh he’s alright

He looks like a villain now, though.

@@thecluckingassassin his a cool drunk

Nah, Mike was trying to get more words out of Tim but he was too drunk.

MONTAUK! Either Tim is dropping a gem or he is just babbling incoherently... he is more "all or nothing" then any of the other rotating 4th bananas.

I can see what they're trying to do..I went into a dollar tree the other day; I walked out, the store was filty, and I thought,I'm gonna get murdered here.

Real talk but it's been proven in practice that playing classical music in public places keeps crackheads and hobos away.

he loves old people comedy as a way of coping with his own future

I’m sure they saw it for sale somewhere.

@@asmodiusjones9563 It was probably $5 somewhere and they made this to justify it

@Zylo Wolf 2.0 it's famous lost media now

Inanimate objects don’t have feelings.. then I watched Mana..

Didn't Rich say that though?

That was Nim mate

It made me laugh so much. I havent laughed like that in a while.

Every episode with Tim is a great time!

The Tim episodes have always been pretty fun to me, but I’m starting to really look forward to them.

The Grim Reaper joke was the best

RLM CURSE _STRIKES AGAIN!_

Is it stealing if you do it to the elderly?

@@Osamathegamer It depends on the person, it is certainly funny though

@@Osamathegamer only for 5 or so minutes, until they forget about it.

all of the people who I have encountered in real life who have one of those really have their shit together. I dunno maybe I should be taking notes

Rich's phone case is so wholesome.

I've got the same phone case. It has my grocery store card in it.

@@cbrewitt does it have your library card in it, too?

It’s 100 % projection from Mike. We all know his modern tech knowledge is that of a boomer.

The man is an absolute professional, and quite genius 👏

I was literally in front of my television in my pajamas finishing up Arachnophobia lmao

@@hunteryocum2563 been there, 4 years. go to a therapist, take some light antidepressants for a few months, (not more) and write some literature or poetry, even if its crappy, it helps. unless you are american, i dont know if you can afford therapy then

I Am Not guarantee

And a Mike cracking up clip! 1:16:09

When Mike is laughing uncontrollably everyone else is already catatonic.

@@Szokynyovics like the Halloween episode where he was absolutely demolished

This is a very underrated comment

"B4! And after!"

the most fun thing here is RLM discussing it beforehand, easily determining that the premise of selecting one of a set of near-identical items with a lottery makes no sense, and deciding to go ahead with it anyway

You're so right,Mike has given the world countless hours of laughter. He should be more supported . Please people..subscribe.!

you are not the only one my friend

I like it all but I can see why you’d like this stuff the most

I love it because it's random trash they watch.

There's nothing more efficient than having to unzip your phone every time you use it.

He is definitely the backbone of the organization Or should I say black spine

Peak male

@@gmanrpg The only thing more efficient is ensuring that if you lose your phone, you've now lost your wallet as well!

To refer to a Star Trek: TNG episode title, I guess you could say Rich Evans operates at... Peak Performance!

This is the first comment I've seen about Osho! Which is crazy because I watched Wild Wild Country and as soon as Osho came on I was like "Isn't that the guy?!" and looked it up, and I was right. Fucking crazy story. But also they showed the weird counting while they're in chains first, then show Osho, and I was like, "This makes sense now."

I thought the same thing. Thought for sure it was a doofy art film until I saw the Wild Wild Country guy.

I see what you mean, but I wouldn't call anything in Turtle Dreams a "tune"...

He is saving up for Halloween.

Tim being drunk in the 2020 Christmas episode is classic "We drunkee around Rich"

This is the type of comment i want to see. He looks great and healthy, jawline coming along nicely. Good on him

He should get a buzz cut. But if he likes it the way it is then that's cool

I can't wait for Marvel's Eternals to come out, so we can see Rich Evans' new ripped bod.

@@aloaloings5596 Can't groom kids if you ain't well groomed yourself.

I'm choosing to believe this.

Idk about the rest of them but it definitely was with Tim

Tim probably walked out and was like "Hey Richard. Mike is doing something stupid in the next room"

@uNnHkP8mza jehovah’s witnesses can be freaks once they are married and Mormons can have a different wife for each day of the week. Jehovah’s Witness is a weaker retort and you’re right to some degree if you want to include them as crazy cults. On top of that, every Mormon I ever met lived like they were the Amish in perpetual rumspringer (sic). Maybe you’re right. And maybe the difference is between the cults that have become these long lasting massive influences and those that burn away is whether they survive beyond the originator’s sex drive.

MAGA, they just want your money... Mostly cause they prefer sex be non-consensual

Sounds like the children of god cult (aka family international)

There is, in the same sense that there is a river between Atlanta and Phoenix: they are not particularly near that river, or each other.

I mean, how much more black could this spine get? The answer is none. None more black.

Here I was thinking that black spine spinal tap meant they had to watch 11 tapes total

I'm disappointed that they didn't go to the bathroom to compare cocks.

I learned that levitating trick years ago but the way I was taught it is a lot cooler. Well, slightly cooler. It is still "magic."
