Hobbies 

ok which parent paid him to do this video

The sprinkles are coming...

Who is rewatching this in 2024 (5 years later)

5:47 Now that is comedic gold! The joke was over before you got the reference- no hold for applause or anything- incredible!

0:19 *looks at locker numbers* ...real smooth.

"I am 22 and my life is practically over" This hits differently

Me: I'm only 23 my life is just Begining James: IM 22 MY LIFE IS PRACTICLY OVER!!

Aikido honestly sounds sick. Looked it up and there's a dojo in my city, and now I'm honestly considering giving it a go.

“Drums are easy” You just triggered every drummer ever

0:29 I love how he got hit with a basketball in a soccer field

"I got a new dog named Floof..." Huh, sure didn't hear that name before..... TECHNOBLADE

4:56 Btw, the line connecting the two notes is called a tie and it’s when you slur the note together instead of tonguing it (I’ve been taking clarinet lessons for 2 years)

“you kids are not tired all the time” *laughs in senior*

"Surprisingly I haven't been in a fight" Narrator: Nobody was surprised...

you're right. as a freshman going into sophomore, i literally fee like i missed out on so many things because i didn't start it earlier. during middle school, i asked my parents if i could join a sport but they wouldn't let me because it took 10 mins off their sleep time... now i don't feel like joining any sports because of how behind i am.

"I wasted my childhood" As a 17 years old, I relate terribly

Nothing BEATS the drum. *beats drum with stick*

“Parents want their children to be well-rounded” *has a child that rolls around*

Yeah, the thing with me and hobbies is that after starting them at a young age I still do them all the way into high school, like being in the Bowling League or Choir Practice. The problem happens is that you had to do that in ADDITION to school and it was really bad when I was in high school because it felt like I had little to no free time to myself and it felt like everything around me is keeping me from doing what I like to do.

“ a lot has happened to me in 2019“ Well, that certainly aged…

“Entertainment is designed to be entertaining “ -James 2019

Thanos: *snaps*- James: 1:57

James: Youth is the best time to learn where your passion lies *insert rant about how good youth is here* Me who started high school and already is beaten down by life: as soon as your a teen your life becomes a fight to survive

The person trapped in the picture frame made me laugh so flipping hard!! James, you are a cartoon comedic genius!!

“You kids are not tired all the time” School and teachers: *Allow us to introduce ourselves.*

James (2019): I've never been in a real fight Also James (2022): gets in a real box fight

I did drum line for years and I can agree with James that nothing beats the drums

True. If I’d never tried art I wouldn’t know I love to draw. If I’d never tried that candle making set my grandmother gave me I’d never have learned that I love making candles. If I’d never tried rollerskating I’d never have learned I’m an amazing roller skater and can play jammer on a derby team with great skill. If I’d never tried painting my nails or doing my makeup I’d never know I love learning how to make my body a work of art. I never would’ve known I love having things in my room be painted by me if I hadn’t painted the shelf that I use to store my plants. Speaking of which, id never have known I have a great love for caring for plants had I not bought a succulent from the florist center nearby. I wouldn’t have learned I love kids if I didn’t hang out with kids. Now I have a room full of my own art, a small candle business, many plants throughout my room, I’ve joined my derby team, and I babysit (I’m only 14 so I still have a lot of free time to do many hobbies)

"You kids arent tired all the time!" *and at that, James, you would be wrong*

2:01 Anyone notice the Slenderman just creeping?

Ive learned way more from video games than i ever did from school. It really depends on a persons mindset. Some people just cant learn as flexibly as others and usually those are the people that can only really pick up new things if you beat it into them with programs like school

Good message! I love James for this... Nostalgia❤

5:09 James: drums are easy Every drummer ever: HE HIT THE WRONG CYMBAL

My parents respected my choices and never forced me into any hobbies. Now I am a grown ass adult with zero hobbies and nothing to in free time except the internet.

I like how he put Pepsi and spots in the painting their soo cute🐈

Imagine James' mom walked in as he was drawing this frame: 1:50 LOL 🤣😂

#1 trending in one day.

James got hit by 6 balls in this video *if only shaggy could protect him*

James: Make a comic! Me: I am making one while watching this.

When I was in Primary School we had clubs and one of them the Drama club. I never chose to be in it but somehow I was sent into it. I never wanted to but since then I am thankful I was sent to it. It changed my life.

*0:18** that mother is a really helpful and kind person*

2:29 R.I.P Club penguin you will be missed!

I love that the lockers at the beginning start with 420

I did some type of martial arts when I was like 3-6 I don't remember what type it was but I remember that they taught us how to do forward rolls and front flips

“I’m 22. My life is practically over.” Great job crushing my soul.

1. Sleep 2. Work 3. Talk to girls How...

This is so true! My parents forced me into basketball when I was 6 and now 8 years later I still do it and I do representative basketball (the higher level)

I can feel and smell the sound of the soccer ball😂😂 it makes me flinch hearing the ball

James: It’s all about the balance Thanos: This does put a smile on my face

James is one of the few youtubers that actually looks like how he sounds

The snare drum lol other good days of the after school practice of the band room lol

When i was young me and my siblongs LOVE ninjas so i remeberd i used to learn martial arts on my tv lol

Man, I can’t wait to watch the 10 million sprinkles video. _Daz gonna be a lotta sprinkles._

My parents just made me learn how not to do dumb stuff. Extra hobbies? Nah, just don't walk out into the road without looking.

i reaally agree that you said drums sound good and its easy..well because its my favorite instrument

I was almost sighed up for Akido and im glad I do taekwondo insted.

My favorite hobby is cleaning metal computers properly.

I played a piano I quit I forgot everything I played a clarinet I quit I forgot it I do karate I don’t like it What a waste of money I did remember how swim tho

fellow percussionist here and i totally agree, it's awsome. also just like you i am terible at the xylophone. also in percusion there is more than just xylo and drums. there's cabasa, cymbals, timpani ( another kind of drums), and a bunch of other weird instruments

"Nothing beats the drum" -The Odd 1s Out, 2019

James: Makes 1 video RU-vid: That's number 1 on trending now *_THATS HOW MAFIA WORKS_*

5:46 Thank you for the drawing.

I fully remember that my primary school made me and the class to play the recorder and I enjoyed the recorder for a long time but my new favourite instrument is a Kazoo! 😂

As person who still takes Aikido classes , it is a very beautiful martial art , and can take years to fully master, most black belts spend roughly 10-17 years as a white belt , but most attacks that we train with, are punches or grabs , bc kicks aren’t used a lot in fights that I have seen, but we would most likely just grab or something similar , anyways love the video❤

"You kids are not tired all the time." _inhales_ *James, I get it. You're an adult.* *BUT I DON'T EVEN SLEEP.*

Oooh he was a runescape nerd too. I'm ready to come home now.

I feel like aikido is a little bit violent, my teacher once said that (referring to hitting us if we didn’t move fast enough) ‘some people call it child abuse, I call it motivation’ we also flip people

0:05 Not me learning the violin at 6 years old and not knowing what youtube was 💀

J: Just A: A M: Man E: Entertaining S: some introverts

Time you enjoy wasting is not time wasted

Thanks for the motivation

“I’m 22 and my life is practically over” nah don’t say that bro, I’m 22 but still have hope 🤣 trying to learn bass guitar rn

Cant wait to see 10million Sprinkles :o

“Her name is Floof.” 11/10 name. Best girl confirmed.

What I hate about my parents is that even after signing me up for something even when I realized it wasn’t my cup of tea, my parents would still make me do them and the only thing my parents wanted me to do is wrestle ,box,and maybe swim ,and they wouldn’t want me to do anything else despite the fact I already understood it wasn’t my cup of tea and I wasn’t good at it

65% percent of my time on weekdays goes to sports, school, and other activities (piano, swim, soon D&D, etc.)

The most effective martial art is Wii Sports Boxing.

My favorite hobby is hide and seek, it’s been 3 years and my friends still haven’t found me. I’m so good

that one drum is a practice pad made to not be as loud but still help learn

This was a good video and he’s right my mom signed me up for sports and Boy Scouts

"Patiently waits for his diamond play button and his 10 million sprinkles video"

James: "I'm 22. My life is practically over." Me at 27 years old: T_T

James: every good boy deserves fudge Me: bro we had a feild trip to the middle school (sixth grade and im in fifth btw) and in my buddy's music class, it was EDDIE'S GREEN BOOTS DONT FIT lol

Personally, this is what my dad told me. A person attacks you, summon Akido. They dont give up. Resort to Hapkido (basically Aikido but with strikes). They still dont go down. Welp, fight or flight?

"I'm 22! My life is practically over!"

You know James...... *I'm still waiting on that fight between you and Alex*

0:38 Fun fact: Arnold Shwartzenagger did ballet simply to give it a try

After you hit 30 some of the best hobbies are throwing everything out of the window I mean rehoming things and bed rest 😂 unless you count making croquettes etc

7:38 CAN WE JUST TALK ABOUT THE BOOK HES READING?!?

Congrats on 10 million james!!!!😁😆

we need 20 mil soon

Being forced to learn something is a privilege lol. My family was too poor to send me to any hobbies classes

The kid was hit with a basketball while playing soccer 😂

"Aikido is the vegans of the martial arts" *Jaiden intensifies*

I rollerbladed for years as a child and that might be why my right knee and ankle are screwed up to this day

I love the seal hitting the drum

The 3rd grade recorder still haunts me..... *HOT CROSS BUNS.* oh, you want to know how to do taxes? *ONE A PENNY TWO A PENNY*

Marshmallow Man takes over RU-vid trending page (2019, colorized)

I really like your videos. The only thing is I have played drums for 5 years. It’s awesome. Plus after 3rd year it gets so much better.

I was watching this video, and he said that his dog is the best in the world ON MY DOG'S BIRTHDAY, but I guess I just have to accept what James said as true.
